FXpansion Guru 1.5 - Manual (Page 18)

8
• Lots of dropped-note and double-trigger conditions corrected
• When drawing graphs, ALT+SHIFT now links all tracks in the current pattern.
• Engine tempo multipliers now go to 6 instead of 8, and can be remote controlled from MIDI
CCs (cc4 and cc5 on ch. -Cool.
• Per-pattern resolution/multiplier controls (Triplets, 8th and 3nd-notes...!), you can have differ-
ent resolution patterns in the same engine.
• ALT+clicking on pattern keys now changes pattern across all engines at once
• New Graphs for Reverse, Duration, Force Layer. Duration is now recorded to the sequencer.
• Option:- Pattern Editor Follows Playback Cursor -- the pages will flip over as the playback head
tracks them
• Option:- Pattern Editor Follows Currently Playing Pattern - when enabled, the currently edited
pattern will change as a new pattern is triggered. When disabled, the currently edited pattern
stays the same until you explicitly push a pattern key button on the GUI
• Pattern key buttons can now send note offs and can be used to (re)trigger patterns in GATE,
TRIG or SHOT mode.
• New option: “Pattern keys send gate/trig” - when enabled, the onscreen pattern keys will retrig-
ger and cut off gate/shot/trig patterns the same way a MIDI note would. When disabled, the
onscreen pattern keys just select the pattern, and don’t affect playback in any way.
• Pad overview level faders, locks, and mute/solo buttons (to left of sequencer) respond to “alt/
shift”-linking key combinations:- ALT:- apply to all in current colour; SHIFT+ALT:- apply to all in
engine; CTRL + (alt, shift+alt):- invert the existing values rather than setting them
• A new option “Retard sequencer (uTicks)” has been added, to retard (delay) the sequencer’s
timing if the host is being sloppy with its own event timing. The “uTicks” units are /406 of a
quarter note - a value of 00 on this setting *should* cure even the sloppiest hosts
• A new option “PPQ Offset” has been added, allowing you to adjust GURU’s sync to compen-
sate if the host is sending grossly wrong beat/bar positions. Logic 5.x PC users will find this
useful.
• Option: Reset Gates at song start. If you’re having problems with Guru not playing the first beat
of a gated pattern at song start, try turning this OFF.
• Option: Clip MIDI files to bar when exporting. When enabled, if a pattern is one bar long but the
duration of the last note takes its total export length over  bar, the MIDI file exporter will clip
the pattern to the bar length by shortening the last note.
• Alt+clicking on pattern properties (trigger mode, steps, pages, resolution) changes those prop-
erties for all patterns in the engine at once
• ALT and ALT+SHIFT to change graph levels in all graphs (in current colour, in current engine)
now works
