Original release notes

midi-sink 2.0: the water sounds, reads two ways, and plays thirteen instruments.

New
• Sound inside — a sampler for Decent Sampler libraries (bring your own; the Dan Tranh zither plays at first launch) and Suzu, a built-in synth whose oscillators cannot drift: a bowed string that sings under your pressure, a bell, a flute, a saxophone, a trumpet whose lips follow your slide, and six patches fitted to sampled instruments. Layer the two, or keep your DAW's sound and the picture.
• Anod, a second medium — the same water read as an electric discharge: every strike a spark, the charge glowing by how far it has been stretched, the water drawing its own field lines. Switch live; the sheet is kept.
• Five new layouts — a trumpet and a trombone with valve pads and a slide that retune every held note, the Wicki–Hayden button field, a fretboard in three tunings, and a theremin that is the whole screen.
• Palettes — edit your own; colour-blind-safe presets included.
• Presets — a whole session in one file, loadable on the iPad, the desktop and the web.
• The prints ledger — every paper dip is kept and re-exports at any size, up to 8K.
• Session replay — record a performance and play it back frame for frame, here, on another device, or in the browser.

Improved
• The dip keeps the print; Clear discards. The sustain pedal is musical in Play mode.
• A panic button on the strip, a Next button to cycle your chosen layouts, left-handed mirroring, and a per-device layout offer you can accept or dismiss.
• The settings sheet is organised by what you are doing: canvas, medium and look, sound, layout, outbound MIDI.
• The water's coordinates are stored as displacements now, so a large canvas keeps the same precision at its edges as at its centre.
