Looks like a nice list of fixes and under the hood type enhancements. Was hoping for step sequecer or piano roll like in LiveOSC and maybe some more live device layouts like EQ8, but I guess the stuff that was enhanced in this update is probably more important for now, especially speed and reliability. Looking forward to trying it out.

Eq8 template is already provided since 1.0! :)
We really wanted to deliver the solidest app possible, we think is done with this new version.
Step sequencer and some others modules will come in time, don't worry.

Yes I know. And I'm saying I wish more control templates had been added like it. For example for operator and other effects.
But having it be as reliable as possible is paramount of course.

i'm too lazy to look too hard into this :mrgreen: but is there any browser scrolling / loading clips,instruments,effects,sets, etc from the browser or is that when you need to turn to the computer?

I wish we could provide that, but that a limitation of the liveAPI, nothing we can do.

Really enjoying this update, thanks for all your hard work. I have it running on my home network, not ad hoc, and I have no problems with connection or latency.

A few things:

When I switch from a Set with devices on some of the the tracks to one with no devices, the devices from the old Set remain.

The new touchAble Server installer adds the remote scripts "touchAble1" and "touchAble2". The previous version was "touchAble" and "touchAble2". Is it ok to delete the remote script "touchAble" now that I've upgraded?

Thanks again- this just keeps getting better! :)

About the devices, thanks for your feedback, didn't happen to us during last betatests, but we are going to check one more time. You still have reload set button in option settings, and update devices button in devices menu, that should help in case.

About script, yes you can delete the old touchAblescript and keep 1 &2, go to your live application, right click, show content packets/Contents/ app-ressources/midi remote scripts/touchAblescript, and delete the folder.

Superb update guys!

Thank you so much!

Remarkable work!

I just have a question: Is it just me or the touchAble Server application doesn't show a custom icon on this updated version? It just shows the default application program icon, the white one with the pencil and the ruler.

Thank you!

:)

Ok, I figured it out, in case anyone is having the same issue.

Only solution I could find was to change the application icon manually, but you have to unlock the permissions keypad to do so in this case.

The icon I grabbed from the installer by the way.

Loving the update!

Thank you!

Is this a free update, or is it going to cost me 25 bucks?
