July 27, 2018
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Bug fixes and performance improvements for faster playing. The instrument may now be transposed up or down one octave in semitone increments and also fine tuned up or down from the transposed pitch as much as +/- 50 cents in one cent increments. Touch the numbers to the left of the semitone and cents sliders to reset the sliders to zero.

More robust support for playback when connected to a MIDI file player app via CoreMIDI.
3.9.1
June 12, 2018
Added support for MIDI Pitch Bend messages on the chanter channel. Two-semitone range. You may enable Chromatic to GHB scale mapping using the Chromatic Map control. When the Chromatic Map is set to "Off", the app passes the notes directly through with no remapping for chanters that do the GHB fingering mapping in the device. When the Chromatic Map is set to "GHB-G" or "GHB-A", the app will remap the incoming chromatic scale notes to the GHB scale so that GHB fingerings can be used on a Chromatic chanter. "GHB-G" is for chromatic chanters where the bottom note is assumed to be the leading G tone. "GHB-A" is for chromatic chanters where there is no leading tone and the bottom note is the A tone. Bug fixes: Fixed issue with MIDI Controllers that send Note-On events with velocity zero instead of sending Note-Off events. Fixed minor issue with the GHB-G and GHB-A maps max offset limits.

New Feature: Added Drones MIDI channel selector on the settings page. Both GHB and Chromatic style hardware MIDI chanters are now supported. Added a "Chromatic Map" option on the settings page to support both Chromatic and GHB scale based chanters. You may enable Chromatic to GHB scale mapping using the Chromatic Map control. When the Chromatic Map is set to "Off", the app passes the notes directly through with no remapping for chanters that do the GHB fingering mapping in the device. When the Chromatic Map is set to "GHB", the app will remap the incoming chromatic scale notes to the GHB scale so that GHB fingerings can be used on a Chromatic chanter.

Changed MIDI Offset slider on control page to Lowest MIDI note for clarity. Using a MIDI Chanter like the Fagerstrom Technopipes: Touch the "i" to bring up the MIDI Chanter controls where you can set the MIDI channel of your chanter, as well as the lowest note on the chanter. The drones are started/stopped by sending any MIDI Note-on event (less than note 80) on MIDI channel 15. The MIDI Note-off event with the same note number will stop the drones. Default MIDI settings are for the Fagerstrom Technopipes: MIDI Channel = 1 Lowest Note = 67 Drone MIDI channel is 15

Changed bottom note MIDI offset to be relative to MIDI note 67 (G3) to match most Fagerström Technopipes MIDI chanters.

May 23, 2018
Added support for Fagerstrom Technopipes and other hardware MIDI chanters. Touch the "i" to bring up the MIDI Chanter controls where you can set the MIDI channel of your chanter, as well as the bottom note offset from A3 (MIDI Note 69). The drones are started/stopped by sending any MIDI Note-on event (less than note 80) on MIDI channel 15. The MIDI Note-off event with the same note number will stop the drones. Default MIDI settings are for the Fagerstrom Technopipes.
