Version 2.1.1 – Released 6th November 2023

Bug fixes:

Arrangement would not work in a specific case: If using “FX type” tracks together with multiple scenes, the arrangement would not work in case clips were missing on some of the scenes in use

Version 2.1.0 – Released 14th November 2022

New features in Song Sketch 2.1

• Improved Clip Placement (Live 11) When clips are placed on the arrangement view, they are placed with the original loop points from the clip, instead of placed with duplicated notes within the clips (or repeated clips for audio). You can choose to restart clips at every new section. The new clip placement is faster, more flexible in terms of which material you can use, and makes it easier to work with the material once arranged.

• Placing Locators The new “Place Locators” button places locators according to the sections in the arrangement.

• Sections Track (Live 11) With the “Sections Track” feature, you will get an extra track on top of your other tracks with empty midi clips that are named according to the sections in the arrangement. (“Sections Track” replaces “Section Names on Clips” for Live 11 users.)

• Use Scene Names Any scene names in the Live set can be transferred to the scene settings in Song Sketch, making it easier to work with settings for multiple scenes in Song Sketch.

Other updates in 2.1:

• Separate drum rack function is updated to work with the latest Ableton and Max version

• Improved font graphics for section names.
