We just released version 1.3.0 for all our Evolution-based instruments!
Here's what's new:
- New settings: “Legato Time Start” and “Legato Time Length” that let you set time thresholds for whether or not the legato articulations will get triggered.
- New setting: “Strum Pattern Dynamic” to control the strumming pattern dynamic in real-time.
- New setting: “Mapping Octave” that shifts the instruments' entire mapping up/down by octaves.
- New setting: “Performance Effect Muting” to make things like string slaps mute any held notes.
- Improved: String overriding keyswitches are now MIDI channel specific, only applying to notes on the same MIDI channel as the keyswitch.
- Improved: MIDI guitar setting is now a dropdown menu with different options for how each string is mapped to different MIDI channels.
- Improved: “Dynamic Memory” setting is now a dropdown menu named “Sample Purging” that contains an addition option to revert to Kontakt’s own built-in memory handling.
- Improved: “Release Slide Down” articulation can now get selected even after a note is initially triggered.
- Fixed pitch bend modes intermittently not affecting notes.
- Fixed a bug where strumming performance FX wouldn’t mute notes held on the keyboard in certain situations.
- Fixed a bug where certain strummed chords would get played as legato in specific scenarios.
If you're subscribed to our emails and own any Evolution-based instrument, you should have already received an email notification with the update.
You can always get the very latest version by re-downloading the instruments from your account, too. However, if you have more than a couple Evolution instruments, using the update bundle will be faster and require much less data to download.
If you haven't received the email or have any questions, please get in touch with our support.
