  • Added: Two new song settings for avoiding the use of transposed files for RealTracks generation, and Ignoring slash roots except for Bass.
  • Added: New Feature - Gain Nodes. These nodes allow for a db adjustment (-64 to +36db is the default range) for Audio tracks, or a CC 11 (expression) controller change level (0 to 127) for MIDI tracks.
  • Fixed: Note based lyrics were not loaded in when loading in an MGU.

  • Added: scrollbar to comments window
  • Fixed: dragging in a type 0 file erased the contents of the track before the point you dropped it.
  • Fixed: mouse cursor hovering over the timeline of the tracks window would result in a resize cursor showing, if the tracks window was scrolled down so that track 2 or greater was the top track.
  • Fixed: loading in a .SEQ when the tracks window is scrolled down so that track 2 or greater is the top track, could cause the overviews to be out of alignment with the track info panels, if, for example, some of the track heights were smaller than normal.
  • Added: FX button is shown in blue in the mixer window when the master, aux, or track contains FX
  • Fixed: Markers (entered via the markers button on toolbar) would sometimes show up on the toolbar of the audio edit window instead of on the time line.
  • Fixed: MIDI patch numbers in the Mixer had the wrong background color (gray instead of black) and were hard to read.
  • Fixed: if a plugin could not be loaded because it was a proprietary plugin intended for a specific DAW, then the error message would contain Chinese characters.
  • Fixed: Big lyrics Win displayed Chinese characters when loading in a .SEQ with chord symbols.
  • Fixed: in some cases, wrong message popped up after a WMA file was successfully exported.

Andrew,

Good to know you and your staff are vigilant and responsive to fixing bugs and doing upgrades. Seems like a lot of fixes for 2016. If I upgrade from my 2015 to 2016 BIAB, will these RealBand Build 7 Update be already included?

Thanks

Atze
