LiveLab Releases LiveSlice 1.3

Another free update to LiveSlice, version 1.3 incorporates a number of new features. LiveSlice now works as an effect allowing you to record loops--live--for instant LiveSlicing. Additionally this release includes a number of workflow improvements the most significant being Drag'n'Drop support. New flash demos available soon. The following features and bug fixes are new since Version 1.2.

New features:

* Live input

* Drag'n'Drop slices to tracks

* Preview slices in the arranger

* Midi through

* Loops can now be renamed and saved with a different filename

* When a loop is not found on disk (ie a new recording) it is automatically saved with the song

* New feature: stretch - automatically pitches all events to make the duration match the project tempo

* Manual sync will now override host sync information (workaround for hosts that provide incorrect sync info)

* Clicking middle mouse button on a parameter will reset (before it would clear the event underneath)

* Manual sync will now override host sync information (workaround for hosts that provide incorrect sync info)

* Zoom in slicer improved. Reduced the general wobblyness, Zoom / Pan is now activated on double click

* Manual updated

* Loop output settings are now cleared on "clear all"

* First event in a track would have too high attack and release

* Error checking when importing cue-points as slices (fixes "silent slices" and "wrong slice num. reported" bugs)

* Setting a midi controller to event and then to track mode caused the parameter to stop responding

* Manual sync would sometimes cause double triggering of the first event

* Gridlines going solid bug fixed

* Fixed crashes when triggering empty arrangements and using manual sync
