Version 2.10 - 4/13/2012

SETUP MODE:

Features:

• Drum Pads: LEDs now light (half red/blue) when playing single notes (previously they only lit when triggering controls and RIFFs)
• A warning message is now displayed if one attempts to save over a Setup currently in use as the current Control Setup. This has been added in an attempt to help avert unwanted changes to the ControlSetup (an advanced application).
• Setup Destination 'ShiftKey':
  -Value 119 is now used for Last Note Played but only if the note is in the key range of the zone.
  -Values of 120-127 are (as previously) used when you do not want to respect the key range of the zone to set this parameter.
• New version of "funk setup" (#124) with new sync parameters assigned demonstrating cueing of song sections.

Fixes/Improvements:

• CH/PRG - zones with 'Destination: MIDI' were still expanding programs locally.
• CH/PRG - 'Destination' now allows a setting of NONE.
• KEYVEL - Notemaps 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 and 4/4 now working properly.
• ARP1 - Shift Amount now starting on the correct note.
• ARP1 - when attempting to delete a ROM Velocity pattern it was taking you to the Shift Pattern editor.
• ARP2 - Latched modes (add, arpeg, overplay) now respect the zone's Notemap.
• ARP2 - using Arp Latch the zone mute status was getting changed to Mute. There were unwanted notes triggering on channel 16.
• DELETE: the Save prompt screen was unnecessarily displaying after deleting an edited, user setup.
• COMMON: KB3Chan now re-expands setup so that if there is a KB3 program on a newly set KB3 channel it actually sounds.
• COMMON: KB3Chan- Setups attempting to load 2 or more KB3 programs were not respecting the KB3 channel properly. The KB3 in the higher zone was the one sounding, instead of the one assigned to the KB3 channel.
• KB3 zone - Knobs continue working properly regardless of the status of the "KB3Mutes" controller destination.
• Split/Layer Tool: improved KB3 program handling.
• Buffer overrun would occur when Velocity Pattern is assigned to a controller and the Master Display is set to Controllers.
• The Record button no longer does anything in Setup Edit Mode.
• Proper updating of Tempo value while on the Tap Tempo page now occurs if tempo is being modified by controller destination 'TapTempo'.
• Improved handling of exiting from Utils in Setup Edit mode (screen was displaying garbage instead of the current selected setup values).
• Exiting setup mode was re-expanding the incorrect program in current channel.
• Some setup zones were erroneously sending MIDI cc#9 and cc#12 upon exit (carry over from old PC2 compatibility).
• FX Inserts were not properly loading when using the 'GotoProg' destination.
• Setup #128 Default Setup - changed SyncType on ARP2 page to AnyBeat.
• Smooth pitch wheel transition between setups improved.
• Fixed several problems in pitch wheel setup process when pitch wheel settings were not defaults (linear curve, 100% scale and 0 add).
• RIFF syncing did not work reliably when using values of "Loop".

PROGRAM MODE:

• Added 'Drum Remap' Kurz 4.
• Pitch Display Bar: MIDI pitch wheel, Aux Bend1 (MIDI CC 21) and Aux Bend2 (MIDI CC 15) display graphically if using Master/Display "Ctls" view.
• KB3 sustain/sostenuto/leslie assignments can now all be addressed in the PARAMETERS page without the need to go to the VAST editor. The original 3 fields have now been removed from the MISC page as they are unnecessary.

Fixes/Improvements:

• VAST Editor: KEYMAP - Alt Control with AltMethod - Continuous now properly handle offsets.
• VAST Editor: EditSample: TRIM - if editing the end-point of a stereo sample forced the loop point to move, the loop-point of the other channel was not updating to match.

Version 2.01 - 3/3/2011

SETUP MODE:

Fixes/Improvements:

• Proper values for all Entry/Exit values for pan and volume have been set.

• Better initialization of switches at boot-up.

PROGRAM MODE:

Features:

• KB3 Edit: per-program parameter added to allow user-selection of Foot (cc4) and/or Expression (cc11) for KB3 swell control.

• LE was not responding to cc5, cc65 or cc68; now fixed.
• Advanced KbdNaming: No longer auto-incrementing with navigation keys (left, right, delete, insert). Was causing the cursor to advance by 2.

Version 2.00 - 12/29/2010

SETUP MODE:

Features:

• New Trigger Keys functionality. Keys can now trigger a controller.
• Arp Sync Mode on the COMMON page has been eliminated. With previously added sync modes for arps, this parameter is now unnecessary.
• New Parameter: Setup Mode Input Channel. You can choose if MIDI coming from the local keyboard will sound or not. Set it to 1-16 L+M if you want to play that zone both from your external keyboard and the PC3LE, or set it to 1-16 M if you want to play that zone only from the external keyboard. Any L+M and Any M are also choices.

  Example L+M:

  Zone1: Piano, channel 1, inputChannel 1 L+M, Xpose +12.
  Zone2: Strings, channel 2, inputChannel 2 L+M, Xpose +24.

  -If you play from your external controller in ch1... you will be playing the Piano xposed +12.
  -If you play from your external controller in ch2... you will be playing the Strings xposed +24.
  -If you play the keys on the PC3LE you will be playing Piano (xposed+12)+Strings(xposed +24)

  Example M:

  Like before, but let's add a third zone:
  Zone3: LoudSolo, channel 3, inputChannel 3 M, Xpose +12.

  -If you play from your external controller in ch3... you will be playing the LoudSolo xposed +12.
  -If you play the keys on the PC3LE you will still be playing only Piano (xposed+12)+Strings(xposed +24)

  Note the big advantage of this feature... that external MIDI passes THRU the zone and its parameter settings.

Fixes/Improvements:

• Common page reorganized.
• Common page Tempo field is now easier to edit. Example: Typing 60 +Enter will automatically set it to 60.00, before you had to type 6000.
• Under some circumstances Setups were losing effects; this is fixed.
• PitchUp and PitchDown setup controllers now working properly with non 100% scaling.
• MIDI data received on the LocalKbdCh (LKC) is now being sent out via MIDI/USB for data on that same channel. Previously it was not.
• MIDI controller messages are no longer transmitted from muted zones (entry/exit values continue to be sent regardless) and some non-MIDI destinations (>127) can still be triggered, like Mute Zone, Solo Zone or Arpeggiator settings. For Momentary switches special treatment is given whereby off messages are still sent even if the zone gets muted mid-stream. This way hung notes are avoided with common applications like Sustain where muting a zone before the sustain pedal is released could cause issues.
• Goto Setup destination (SetpGoto) now properly refreshes setup list when in Setup Main page.
• AuxBend1 and AuxBend2 controller destinations removed as they are not enabled in the PC3LE.

PROGRAM MODE:

Features:

• NEW MODE: advanced V.A.S.T. Editor!! (Program Edit / V.A.S.T.)

  Nearly full PC3-level program mode edit capabilities, including ALG WIRING, KEYMAP and ROM SAMPLE edit modes (no added FX editing). See the included PC3LE v2.00 Addendum for full details.

• Program Edit: KB3 programs now have Demo Song field (and demos) on the OUTPUT page. (V.A.S.T. edit mode)

Fixes/Improvements:

• Fix for Programs where Insert FX were still sounding with MIDI Vol=0. This should cover all of the cases of MIDI/outgain and aux send problems.
• ENV2/3 now continue past the end of the amp envelope (if the layer's outputs are connected to another layer.)
• Fix for 'portamento/legato OFF' issue: In mono mode, with Portamento and Legato both set to OFF, keyup will retrigger (sample/envelope restart) the held note instead of re-pitching the current note.

SONG MODE:

Features:

• "UnLoop" record function added to the sequencer (BIG page, RecMode field). Similar K2XXX feature of the same name, unloop is a handy track copy function that automatically extends existing shorter-length tracks for you as you record new material.

  When recording in UnLoop RecMode, any existing tracks will be played back as if they were looping from Bar 1 : Beat 1 to the End point, but they are actually being re-recorded linearly over absolute Bars and Beats until you press Stop. In other words, UnLoop allows you to record a linear track over a short looping section without first having to copy the section over and over again to achieve a new desired Song length. The End point of the Song is extended to the downbeat of the (empty) Bar immediately following the last Bar you were recording when Stop was pressed.

  For example, let's say you've a recorded a four-bar drum loop and now want to record an eight-bar bass line. This would be a situation where UnLoop would come in handy. While the drum track keeps looping, the bass track will record in linear fashion, and the end point will be moved to the point at which you press Stop. Actually, the drum track will also change. It will play through its loop twice, but while the information is repeating in the loop, it will be recorded to the track. So now if you look at the drum track, you will see information in bars 5-8 (a duplicate of the information in bars 1-4).

• The Export MIDI File function has moved and is now a part of Storage Mode and sports enhanced selection options.
• The option to have the metronome sound only on "CountOff" was added.
• Delete song button added to Song Mode.

Fixes/Improvements:

• Edit/Track/Delete function now correctly adjusts song end time.
• Numeric entry in Song Mixer page when playing the song now correct.
• Improved song 'stops', making sure the transport stops if "save" is pressed during playback.
• Clipping name of Song Name properly if it is too long
• Song Event Editor no longer attempts to execute DataInc and DataDec (cc96, cc97) upon entry.
• Note off events represented as Note On = 0 velocity were not handled properly.
• Stability of real-time track operations improved.
• Exiting the MISC page has been improved.

QA MODE:

Features:

• QA mode can now be used as program mode in multi-timbral MIDI applications.

Fixes/Improvements:

• Fixed bug when going from a Setup to a Program. Showing the current program in the channel if nothing is selected.
• Proper display of LEDs in buttons.
• Panic now working properly.
• Last QA bank used is now stored in the master table.
• Better handling of selections made by program change including re-selection of the already current entry.
• Transport buttons working better now.

STORAGE MODE:

Features:

• Support for loading∗ K2 Series Programs & Setups.

  ∗The PC3LE will try to convert programs, setups and keymaps from the K2 series into the PC3LE. Files with extensions K25, K26 and KRZ can be loaded. The PC3LE does NOT load K-samples therefore in the keymap conversion the PC3LE will try to find similar samples to the ones used by the keymap in the PC3LE ROM. Sometimes successfully, sometimes not. The PC3LE does not have sample skipping so some samples will not extend more than 1 octave upwards as they did in the K2 series. Some of the DSP algs used in the programs cannot be converted or are partially converted. The FX are not converted in Programs nor Setups.

• The Export MIDI File function now displays a selection screen allowing simpler selection of the song to be exported.
• EXPORT/Info: export Program Info.
• For developers: Export object in XML in Storage mode. Few objects type for now but we will be adding more.
• For developers: Export KPN in Storage Export.

Fixes/Improvements:

• Increased stability of file system.
• Load: PC3/PC3K files are loaded now properly.
• Load/Open: The list of displayed objects now wraps.
• Support for multiple file selection within a directory on load now supported.
• Keyboard Naming in Storage mode is now filtering invalid characters.

MASTER MODE:

Features:
