• ARP Sequence Lights added – Now there is a row of lights below the main ARP Sequencer to demonstrate which position is currently active. Note that this is designed for monophonic mode, in Polyphonic mode the lights indicate the first triggered sequence.
• 4 x CC Sequencers added – This brings the total to 7 independent CC Sequencers.
• CC Sequencer Modes – A new menu offers alternative modes for the CC Sequencers such as Envelope Mode which will draw a linear line between points sending out a CC Value every 32^nd note. For this to be useful the CC sequencer should be set to a slow tempo.
• Copy/Paste Functions – Allows copying the ARP Sequence and lanes from one patch to another.
• Double/Quad Functions – Double will copy the first 16 beats of the ARP Sequencer and lanes to the last 16 beats, for easily repeating the pattern without manually editing the events. Quad will repeat the first 8 beats 3 times.
• Colour Coded Step Markers – Beneath the lights are some markers to denote each bar start etc making it clearer which step is being edited.
• CC Shift functions fixed – Shift Left/Right wasn’t working on the CC Sequencers.
• GUI Open Bug – Previously the GUI needed to be open at least once when opening an existing project for all the data to be initialised, this is now resolved.
• CC Knob Assignments added.

Arp has been updated to v1.4 with some great new features:

• 3 x CC Modulation Sequencers – For controlling any CC numbers of the target device, with independent tempo and step size, Mid Point and Amount knobs.
• Dedicated Velocity Sequencer – For setting the velocity of each note in the sequence, the tempo and step size are locked to the main sequencer.
• Swing/Pulse Length localised – Swing will now work at any tempo, the odd notes will always have swing applied so now there’s need to use the Master Tempo for this purpose. Pulse Length is now more controllable and a fixed percentage of the the beat length. Note that all of this is newly coded and whilst I’ve tried to follow the original settings, there may be slight discrepancies especially with swing and so some adjustment to patches that use swing may be necessary.
• Channel 16 Pitch Shift – If midi data is received on channel 16 it will be used to re-pitch the main Sequencer. Anything above middle C will increase the pitch and below will decrease.
• Knob Resolution – The scope of the knob has been speeded up so there is less travel distance. Holding Shift or CTRL still allow fine adjustments.
• Bug Fix - Pitch Bend, Aftertouch and Modulation Wheel now pass through correctly.
• Bug Fix - Problem in FL Studio where the timing was erratic for some users.

Changes:

• All Notes Off on Stop – Although some hosts do this automatically, the plugin will do it too which is handy for slow tempos especially if ties are used and prevents waiting for long notes to finish playing.
• Octavator row added – This row will force the step to follow the Octavator Mode, the following modes are available:
• Off – useful for temporarily disabling the octavator without having to switch off all the steps.
• +1, +2, +3, +4 – Will play an octave above on each step that is selected.
• -1, -2, -3, -4 – Will play an octave above on each step that is selected.
• Cycle +1, Cycle +2, Cycle +3, Cycle +4 – These cycle modes will be triggered when a selected step is reached. The cycle will go from root note (unchanged) then +1, +2 until the max is reached, and then begin again. Because the octave step is advanced only when an octavator step is played, it can lead to very complex, interesting and long cycles, especially if polyphonic.
• Cycle -1, Cycle -2, Cycle -3, Cycle -4 – These are the same as above but cycle through lower octaves instead.
• Cycle +-1, Cycle +-2 – As above but they will go from root note to + octaves, then -octaves.
• Vol row added – These allow using the secondary ‘Vol Amount’ knob as the volume level for the step as opposed to played volume or fixed volume. Very nice if velocity is linked to cutoff frequency in the target synth.
• There was a bug with the sliders, the upper eleventh note would come out as 12.
• There was a bug with the 32^nd note when 32 steps were used, the value would be incorrect.
