    Fixed issue causing silent notes at low velocities.
  2. v1.8.1iOS
    Added virtual MIDI output port for sending MIDI to other apps.
    Fixed MIDI echo loop when receiving external MIDI in standalone mode (network sessions, hardware controllers).

    Fixed drum pad highlighting to toggle pad state instead of lighting up the MIDI keyboard.
    Fixed velocity 0 bug in height-based velocity mode.
    Clamped minimum velocity to 1/127 and velocity fader minimum to 1 to prevent Note Off messages.
  7. v1.5iOS
    Added SF2 multi-preset program selection with auto-scroll and state persistence.
    Added direct Remap to Mod Wheel and Remap to Pitch Wheel toggle items in aftertouch menu.
    Changed CC1 remap to use mod wheel position as bipolar center point instead of absolute values.
    Mod wheel slider now syncs to last aftertouch CC1 value on release for continuous expression.
    Renamed aftertouch remap info label to "Set to CC..." for clarity.
    Limited Set Remap dialog to CC 0-127 only since Pitch Wheel now has direct access.
    Fixed CC1 remap resetting mod wheel to zero when pressing a key.
  8. v1.4iOS
    New aftertouch menu with four modes: Off, Mono AT, Poly AT, and XY MPE. Mono AT supports first-mover leader direction locking for natural chord expression. XY MPE allocates per-note channels (2–16) with Y→CC74 and X→Pitch Bend. Bipolar Y-axis pressure mapping includes a deadzone for smooth control. Slide-to-play is automatically disabled when aftertouch is active, locking each finger to its original note.
    Includes aftertouch output remapping to any MIDI CC (0–127) or Pitch Bend via the new Set Remap dialog.
