The folks at Gig Performer kindly invited us to appear on their Backstage live stream to discuss Song Master and how it can be integrated with their outstanding product, Gig Performer. Check it out:
This is primarily an update that fixes a couple of crashes and a handles a number of things better.
There's a lot of functionality and workflow items that appear just below the surface of Song Master. Knowing about these will help you focus more on music and less about making mouse clicks.
In April, we added nine videos to our new YouTube channel. Each video is two to five minutes long and focuses a single topic.
The latest update to Song Master introduces the ability to view individual stem tracks in the Audio view, complete with solo and mute buttons, as well as customizable labeling and ordering options. You can now generate, load, and manipulate external stems, with support for .mogg files and the option to save stems as .wav or .ogg. The update also includes improved waveform rendering, a Zoom to Fit feature, and enhanced UI scaling options, along with numerous other improvements and bug fixes to streamline your audio editing experience.
We've been busy getting Song Master to run natively on Apple's M1 processor...and we've optimized many algorithms so it runs fast!
The Controllers Track allows you to send midi and OSC messages to applications and external devices. This allows you to send "patch" changes to your music applications and devices such as the AXE FX, Kemper profiler, Line 6 and Boss 6 multi-fx pedals, and any other pedal that supports MIDI in. If you have an application that acts as an OSC server, you can use the Controller track to send OSC messages to control the application.
We've added a number of useful features for displaying and manipulating the chords in the Chord track.
New: Chord Notations - We've added the option to display the chord names using Roman numerals and Nashville notation along with the traditional notation.
New: Phrase Trainer simplifies learning to play a section by slowing the song down and gradually increasing the tempo. You specify the starting and ending tempos and the amount to increase the tempo after each play.
New: Key Trainer will rotate a song section through a series of key changes. Great for improving your ability to transpose and solo over changing key centers.
