Version 1.8.16

Changes:

• Added support for the Midi Fighter 64 via custom firmware, available on Launchpad Firmware Utility. (#237, #469)
• Fixed an extremely rare issue where side LEDs would display incorrectly on Matrix Pro devices.

Version 1.8.15

Changes:

• Fixed a Windows-only regression introduced in version 1.8.14 where the console window was mistakenly displayed.

Version 1.8.14

Changes:

• Novation USB driver version 2.22.0.10 is now required on Windows.
• Fixed an issue where the driver error message would sometimes fail to launch the driver download.
• Updated the Apollo Connector to v3.1, now supporting Live running natively on Apple Silicon. (#467)
• Fixed multiple crashes related to Apollo receiving signals while a Project was opening or closing. (#465)
• Fixed an issue where keyboard navigation in a Track window could attempt to access Pattern's children, which put Apollo in an unstable crash-prone state.
• Fixed display and bounds detection when maximizing a Track window on macOS.
• Valid keyboard navigation and shortcuts no longer play an OS error sound (was especially annoying on macOS).
• The "Save as" menu is now accessible even if the Project is saved. (#468)
• Changed all direct PayPal links to Ko-fi support page, and added a direct link to mat1jaczyyy's personal website.

Version 1.8.13

Changes:

• Changed all Patreon donation links to direct PayPal links due to inactivity.
• Fixed an issue where using the Matrix On-screen Launchpad Style in Diagonal orientation would unintentionally expose some buttons which are supposed to be unavailable.

Version 1.8.12

Changes:

• Implemented support for the 203 Electronics Matrix family of devices (including Matrix, Matrix Pro, and Matrix Founder Edition). Thanks to @203Null for helping out! (#381, #459)
• Fixed a crash when Ableton Live triggers a BPM change through the Connector while a Fade device is visible on-screen. (#462)

Version 1.8.11

Changes:

• Fixed a regression introduced in version 1.8.9 which caused grouping and choking to crash.

Version 1.8.10

Changes:

• Fixed a regression introduced in version 1.8.9 which caused project files containing Hold devices to be impossible to load.

Version 1.8.9

Changes:

• Properly fixed issues relating to initialization of devices (Fade and Output) by making each device instance's purpose explicitly known before it is instantiated. This change is likely to have some regressions, so please report issues when you notice them! (#390, #456)
• Fixed a crash while saving the Preferences if the config file was hidden. (#445)
• Fixed an issue where the timings of frames in MIDI files would get skewed due to accumulated rounding errors when importing into the Pattern editor, resulting in faster playing effects than intended. (#454)
• Fixed an issue where the Loop device would not retain its Enabled and Collapsed state across operations that involve cloning (usually right-click operations). (#455)

Version 1.8.8

Changes:

• Blocked the new Launchpad X and Mini MK3 1.0.5 firmware update (revisions 408 and 454 respectively) due to issues with Legacy mode. Please continue to use the long-standing versions, which you can still get from the Launchpad Firmware Utility.
• Fixed an issue where really long delta-encoded GIFs would fail to import into the Pattern editor (thanks Slashed!)
• Importing delta-encoded GIFs is now significantly faster.
• When importing MIDI or image files into the Pattern editor, there is now a progress bar visible with the ability to cancel the importing action.

Version 1.8.7

Changes:

• Fixed a regression introduced in version 1.8.5 where the Pattern device would misbehave when placed in certain containers, especially Multi.
