January 26, 2022 Update - ToneStone Closed Beta 0.1.2146
Improvements to Blocks Mode
- Clicking on the timeline moves the playhead to the timeline and highlights the timeline area. Clicking back on the Block Scratch Pad moves the playhead there and highlights that area.
- When the playhead is on the timeline, clicking a section of the timeline moves the playhead to that section.
- Transitions between blocks now occur on the downbeat.
- Colored bars on the sides of blocks are back.
- Copies blocks are named with new letters by default. For example, the duplicate of “Block G” will be titled “Block H.”
