Summary of fixes since Build 5:

  • FIXED - Frozen utility tracks were not loading into RB. Fresh tracks would be generated if the setting in Song Preferences to auto-generate was enabled.
  • FIXED - When loading in an MGU or SGU, and the current track wasn't set to 1, this could cause Utility Tracks to be loaded into higher track numbers than necessary.
  • FIXED - When loading in an MGU or SGU, Utility Tracks that had a Loop on the tracks would not load into RB
  • FIXED - When loading in an MGU or SGU, If a Utility Track used a RT that was built into the style, RB would not be aware of what RT was being used for that utility track.
  • FIXED - if a song had key sig changes, then the key sig change could overwrite notes on the Lead Sheet or in printout or print preview.
  • FIXED - key sig changes could show up when there is drum notation

  • FIXED - Left-Clicking on the number field in the mixer to select a track would cause the pop-up menu to pop-up.
