- * Bars&Pipes Professional 2.5 Features *
- **********************************************************************
-
- The Main Menu
- -------------
-
- The Amiga-key keyboard shortcuts have been changed to match the
- suggested keys in the Amiga Style Guide.
-
- A new Preferences option has been added: Send MIDI Defaults. If
- this option is selected, Bars&Pipes Professional sends the standard MIDI
- default values at the beginning of a song. Any information recorded
- in a track overrides these values. The information sent is:
-
- Volume 100 (the General MIDI default)
- Pan 0
- Mono After-Touch 0
- Pitch Bend 0
- Hold Pedal 0
-
-
- The Tracks Window
- -----------------
-
- The option to double-click on a track movement arrow to move a
- track to the bottom or top has been changed. Tracks may now be
- moved to the bottom or top by holding down the Amiga-shift key and
- clicking on a track movement arrow.
-
- The Copy command in the Track menu copies all Tools in the track
- as well as the sequence data.
-
-
- The Media Madness Window
- ------------------------
-
- A Speaker icon has been added. Clicking on this icon plays the
- currently selected event.
-
-
- The Track Edit Window
- ---------------------
-
- The Amiga-key keyboard shortcuts for the menu have been changed to
- match the suggested keys in the Amiga Style Guide.
-
- A Revert option has been added to the Edit menu. If you'd like to
- ignore all edits and restore the sequence by reading directly from
- the Track, select this command. Use this as a global Undo of all edits
- done to the track since the edit window was opened or last updated.
- This function is also useful if you are recording a mix on a track using
- MixMaestro while the edit window is open. A Revert in this case
- reads in the track data and the most recent mix data for editing.
-
- "Lock time to..." preferences for note placement have been condensed
- into the following submenu:
-
- Anywhere
- Default Note
- Notation Resolution
- Rhythm
- Flag Alignment
-
- The additional option, Flag Alignment, locks the mouse to the
- resolution set in the Align with... menu. Use this if you'd like to
- lock to Beats, Measures, Frames, or Seconds.
-
-
- Printing
- --------
-
- We have found that some printers can not handle the Extra Hi-Res
- printing option. If you have a dot matrix or other low resolution
- printer this option may cause scores to "miss" lines. Use the normal
- Hi-Res printing instead. If you'd like to fine tune the printing,
- select Default resolution and set the printer graphics parameters
- from your Printer Preferences in Workbench.
