Adaptations for iOS14 and bugfixes.

This is a major update that adds lots of new composition techniques that you can use to shape your compositions. You can set your own chords now using one of many new harmonization point types. Also for the first time you can choose between up to four different harmonization alternatives for each segment. Also a first: you can now select multiple fragments to edit its settings or copy and paste them anywhere else in a movement or even in an other composition. And apart from bug fixes and general UI improvements and increased speed there is much more as you will see in the list below: - Segment settings can now be edited for multiple selected segments in one go. - Copy and paste multiple selected fragments/segments in one go. - Up to four harmonization alternatives for each segment. - Add harmonization points to define your own chords progression. - Set the chord names style (relative or absolute). - More harmonization point types: unisono, repeat chord, repeat notes, anticipate chord, anticipate notes, add passing notes. - The harmonization algorithms have been improved and processing speed is increased considerably. - You can now edit harmonization points just like you do edit notes with copy-paste, transformations etc. You can now tap and drag a point or (if multi selected) several points over the ribbon to change position(s). - The Note Editor now allows you to switch between segments. - Imported MIDI melodies can be copied to the clipboard to be used directly into an existing movement. - The MIDI import panel has a 'Play' button now that allows you to listen before you import a MIDI melody. - Many settings are now remembered. So when you open a panel your previously set parameters will be retained. - Beter general tap-and-hold functionality.

- Adaptations for iOS 13 and iPhone 11 - Integration with Files app - Bug fixes By integrating YouCompose with Apple's Files app you can place MIDI files directly into the file system of YouCompose. You can also use the Files app to reorganize your compositions or imported MIDI files.

- Added metronome in Recording Settings. - New option for MIDI file export: One track, type 0. - Bug fixes: During playback it is now possible without YC stopping playback to change tempo within a segment. - Some adjustments for the latest iOS (document viewing a.o.) - Adjustments for newer iPhones.

Bug fixes.

This major update significantly improves the user experience with a new interface and workflow. But that's not all! Editing capabilities are expanded on many levels. All editing can be done now in 'grid' and in 'score' mode and you can switch between these modes seamlessly. Managing your compositions, adding new ones and importing MIDI files has never been easier. Notation is clearer, performance better. All this and many other small improvements make YouCompose a pleasure to work with. YouCompose will detect when it is running on an iPhone X and adapt its interface.

- Adjustments for iOS 11. - Addresses a bug that prevents importing one bar length segments in MIDI files.

- Addresses a bug where there was no touch response in the Note Grid Editor and Score View on 3D touch capable devices. - Addresses a bug where fragments titles were not displayed properly sometimes.

- Improvements and bug fixes to the score. - Higher and adjustable quality when exporting the score to PDF. - Bug fix in importing melodies from MIDI files without time signature information. - Important notice: This version will be the last one supported by iOS 8 or iOS 9. If you would like to receive updates to YouCompose in the future make sure you have iOS 10 or later installed on your device!

- Added time signature setting with separate numerator and denominator, allowing time signatures 2/2, 3/2, 4/2, 5/2, 6/2, 7/2, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, 7/4, 8/4, 9/4, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8, 8/8 and 9/8. - Added new form: Scherzo - Improved auto composed melodies - Notation improvements in scores - MIDI file export skips empty parts. - Different shade of green for empty generated fragments. - Audio Export: resolved a bug: when exporting only one part it was not always assigned to the right instrument. - In auto composed sonatas: resolved a bug that produced notes outside the parts range in development segments. Once again an update all about music and composition. The new time signatures greatly enhances the musical palette of the composer. The ‘assistant composer’ benefits from this too in a new form 'Scherzo' that occasionally will be part of a classical 4 part symphony as well. She improved on her melodies too. When you are in music production you will probably like that exported MIDI files no longer contain empty tracks and that a bug was eliminated that sometimes causes the wrong instrument to be assigned to a one track export.

- Addresses battery usage issues when YouCompose is running in the background. - Bug fix in creating Fugato from existing material.

New in YouCompose 3.8: - Added audio export options ‘Export as loop’ or ‘Export as song’ and adjustable output level. - Tempo range expansion (20 - 240 bpm). - Added melody solo or 2 or 3 part harmonization per segment. - Improved auto composed melodies. - Added two auto composed forms, ‘Fugue’ and ‘Fugato’. - Added ‘Fugato’ to auto composed symphonies. - Added five new automatic harmonization point placing options, ‘Anticipate’, ‘Contra’, ‘Repeat first bar’, ‘Repeat 2 bars’ and ‘Repeat 4 bars’. - Added new option to ‘combine repeating notes’ in Segment setting: ’Smart’. - Improved retrograde function. - Improved ‘Undo’ and ‘Redo’ functionality. - Improved and extended ‘Composition info’ with Part and Segment info. - ‘Composition info’ also available in PDF. - Added adjustable overall audio output level. - Velocity adjustment in tracks (Parts) is replaced by adjustable output level per track (Part). - Added app setting: Toolbar on Main Screen can show current segment info tempo (bpm), key and time signature. - Playback info in Title bar extended with current tempo (bpm), key and time signature. - Documents folder is now accessible in iTunes. - Bug fixes (importing MIDI files, playback very long notes or rests). - Updated AudioCopy framework to version 3.4 This update is all about music. Composers as well as producers will find many improvements and new options. YouComposers who rely on auto composition will be happy to find improved melodies and two new forms ‘Fugue’ and ‘Fugato’. YouComposers who prefer to work with their own material will be pleased to find some great new features. In addition to 4 part harmonization they now can choose to have a solo melody or 2 or 3 part harmonization per segment. To speed up the composition process five new automatic harmonization point placing options were added and a ‘Smart’ setting for the ‘combine repeating notes’ setting. The ‘Undo’ and ‘Redo’ functionality is completely renewed and much easier to use. Producers will find tools that make it easy to export audio loops for use in other apps. A new audio export option ‘Export as loop’ and an adjustable output level makes live easier for them. Also, to make the composition of loops easier, new automatic harmonization point placing options were added that allow YouComposers to repeat a pattern of harmonization points of one, two or four bars. Renewed and extended ‘Composition info’ with Part and Segment info that can be exported as PDF will help production of audio in other apps when using YouCompose material.

This update addresses playback issues on devices running iOS 10.
