- 4.0.0 Patch Manager Revision History
- ------------------------------------
- 4.0.1 v1.56
- ------------
- - With the v5.33 and later drivers, Bankman can now invoke proper
- re-reading of the ultrasnd.ini file. It does this when you
- do a File|Save to Bank 0, Special|Restore Primary Bank, and when you
- return to patchmanager after modifying a bank that patchmanager was
- displaying.
- - a bug that crept in with the big bank numbers which caused
- drum banks to not be re-read when switching back to patch
- manager after altering a bank it was displaying has been fixed.
- - Bank manager no longer modifies the old [Melodic Patches]
- and [Drum Patches] sections of Ultrasnd.ini
- - Bank manager now re-scans the ultrasnd.ini file every time it
- is invoked. Consequently, the Special | Sychronize to INI menu
- option has been removed.
- - A bug which caused Memory Remaining to be incorrect when
- using bank manager to alter the patch map for a bank being
- displayed in patch manager if one of the altered patches is
- loaded <whew> has been fixed.
-
- 4.0.2 v1.55
- ------------
- - A bug which caused Patch Manager to become confused if an
- application switched banks while Patch Manager was running is fixed
-
- 4.0.3 v1.54
- ------------
- - Bank number display to the main screen is added
-
