What's New in KeyPad MIDI Controller
1.12
June 21, 2026
MPE pitch bend now broadcasts to all member channels, so notes you're already holding bend correctly instead of staying fixed. Added a Big Piano grid view with refined sharp corners and cleaner natural-key labels. Grid layouts are now a radio group in the View menu, and a new scale remap mode plus piano sharp shift give you more ways to lay out the keyboard. Key Width moved into the View menu as its own group for consistency. Added a minor-thirds grid mode (columns step up by 3 semitones, rows go chromatic). Double-tapping SUSTAIN (or tapping it with two fingers) now latches it on, with a red border and held-key lighting; a single tap releases the lock. MPE sustain broadcasts CC64 across all member channels so held notes sustain reliably. Fixed grid slide velocity to keep the original strike velocity instead of re-reading at the cell edge. Grid MPE output is now deduplicated for parity with the piano, and MPE pitch-bend stepping is smoother thanks to non-blocking MIDI output and deduplication.
