What’s New

Version 4.2

New in this release:
- Sort Beats by Name – All Beat filters on the My Beats screen now support sorting by “Last Updated” (default) or “Name.” Tap the sort button to switch views. Your selected sort order is remembered for each view (All Beats, individual tags, etc.).
- Snare Drum Buzz Articulation – Create more tension in your beats by incorporating buzz strokes. The standard “z”-style articulation is now available.
- Cowbell Instrument with Accent – “More cowbell!” Thicken your groove by adding cowbell, available in both accented and unaccented varieties.

Improved in this release:
- Sticking Annotations Adjusted – The positioning of “R” and “L” has been moved closer to the staff for the Linear voicing style, making it easier to read.
- Better Snare Diddle Placement – Articulations have been refined to better support simultaneous notes.
- Practice Timer Enhancement – A bell sound now plays when the timer finishes, so you always know when your session is up.
- Sharing Beats via Email – The email subject and body are now blank to simplify sharing. (Thanks, Jim!)
- Freemium Limits More Clearly Displayed – The maximum number of beats for non-subscribers is now clearly shown, making it easier to understand your available limit.
