LiveLab.dk releases LiveSlice 1.3. Yet another free update to make with stunning new features: LiveSlice now works as an effect allowing you to record loops – live – for instant LiveSlicing. Additionally this release includes a number of workflow improvements the most significant being Drag and Drop support.
New features:
* Live input
* Drag’n’Drop slices to tracks
* Preview slices in the arranger
* Midi through
* Loops can now be renamed and saved with a different filename
* When a loop is not found on disk (ie a new recording) it is automatically saved with the song
* New feature: stretch – automatically pitches all events to make the duration match the project tempo
* Manual sync will now override host sync information (workaround for hosts that provide incorrect sync info)
* Clicking middle mouse button on a parameter will reset (before it would clear the event underneath)
* Manual sync will now override host sync information (workaround for hosts that provide incorrect sync info)
* Zoom in slicer improved. Reduced the general wobblyness, Zoom / Pan is now activated on double click
* Manual updated
Bugfixes:
* fixed a bug in the file browser that could lead to crashes
* fixed problem with some controls not responding when running multiple instances of LiveSlice
* Quantize would allow overlapping events – fixed
* Fixed tempo problem in Sonar using DirectiXer
* Slices were not reversed in the gui
* Loop output settings are now cleared on “clear all”
* First event in a track would have too high attack and release
* Snap no longer affects “lock to loop”
* Error checking when importing cue-points as slices (fixes “silent slices” and “wrong slice num. reported” bugs)
* Setting a midi controller to event and then to track mode caused the parameter to stop responding
* Manual sync would sometimes cause double triggering of the first event
* Gridlines going solid bug fixed
* Fixed crashes when triggering empty arrangements and using manual sync
