Numerical Audio has updated KB-1 Expressive Keyboard Suite to version 1.3.1 adding improvements, bug fixes and more.
New in v1.3.1:
- Added drag and drop support for rearranging keyboards in standalone mode.
- Added haptic feedback for key presses (iPhone only).
- Added an option to resize the controls section (wheels, xy & strum control).
- Added an option to advertise a BLE MIDI device in addition to being able to connect to other devices.
- Added an option to select between absolute and relative slide.
- Added an option to change the latch behaviour from regular to exclusive where latching a new key will automatically unlatch the previous one (option is located in the controllers settings tab).
- Added an option to set the MPE bend range to allow vertical glide to be used instead of the pitch-wheel when playing regular mono synths.
- Keyboard Settings now display in a larger window.
- Keyboard layouts can now start at any note (use root note setting to shift up/down).
