Release Notes
This help needs a major overhaul. It was originally written for a
much earlier version of The KeyMaster. I've edited it some,
but it needs a lot more work.
Editor windows are all very primitive. For example, MIDI data can only
be entered numerically. Even worse, some windows use hex (e.g.,
the message editing window), and others use decimal (e.g.,
most fields in patch element windows).
I haven't yet done any MIDI stress testing to see if large, complex
patches slow down the MIDI data any.
Large chunks of functionality don't exist yet:
- Move Triggers
- Trigger patch elements
- Find
- Program Change number substitution
- Sysex Librarian
- Pogram Change names
- Pogrammable Goto Keys
- On-line Help
- Any of the new features described at my KeyMaster Web page
