New feature: Convert dozens of songs per second with the batch converter. Throw all your MusicXML files and lyrics files in a folder, point Song Editor at it, and go! The batch converter can also detect problems in your MusicXML files in seconds, and copy them into another folder for you to hand off to someone else.

New features: Added QuickLook capability so you can get a glimpse of your songs without having to leave Finder. Workarounds for the following engraver's mistakes: Recognizes lyric matches when the MusicXML file contains a contraction of a single word but the lyric file contains the full word. Recognizes pick-up beats of some implicit repeats when the last measure has too many beats but the excess beats are rests. Notes connected by multiple simultaneous slurs are recognized as belonging to one melisma. Improved detection heuristics of multiple names in credits and words designating mixed credit types. Bug fixes: Fixed a bug when removing verse numbers from lyric text.

• The US patent for the unique music notation used in SingAccord was issued, no: 11,289,057!!! • Take the edge off of getting section breaks with pick up beats right, by "Importing with Lyrics". Use a second file containing the lyrics of the song already broken into sections to help SingAccord know how many pick up beats are in each section. Supported file formats for lyrics are *.txt, *.rtf and *.chordpro. • Song Editor's heuristics about note duration and meta data inference are also greatly improved, and where it fails, metadata can be read from *.chordpro files. • Also, lots of little bug fixes, and a few big ones.
