BC Manager 1.1.0 available now
2008-04-09 by Mark van den Berg
Hi everyone,
I've uploaded BC Manager 1.1.0 to the file section of the BC2000 Yahoo
group (subfolder "BC Manager").
This version contains a few bug fixes and some new features,
so everyone using the program should upgrade to this new version.
(Note that there's no need to first uninstall any previous version:
you can install directly "on top of" the previous version.)
Changes include:
- The manual is now included in the BC Manager package itself and can
be opened from the Windows Start Menu or from BC Manager's Help
pull-down menu.
(It is also still available separately in the "BC Manager" subfolder.)
- Closing the B-Controls window no longer leads to questions whether
you want to save and/or send a B-Control's data if it has been modified.
These questions now only occur if you try to quit BC Manager as a
whole (i.e. the main window).
- A memory preset can be copied directly to the temporary preset
('preset 0'), and the connected BCF or BCR can be ordered to follow
this change immediately.
- Individual buttons, encoders and faders in the temporary preset can
be sent to the BCF and BCR, and loaded in the BCL editor window.
- A bug has been fixed that prevented element names from being copied
to other elements, and from being cleared in the 'Initialize' operation.
This bug was also responsible for the disappearance of element names
from memory presets when a previously saved syx or txt file was being
opened.
See the manual for the full list of changes.
The manual itself has been greatly expanded, providing detailed
information on all features.
Up next: "BC MIDI Implementation.pdf" version 0.2.
Among other things, this will include a complete syntactic description
of the "custom output" (".tx") format.
Mark.
