Features
- Project Save/Load via T1 Config application: You can now save and load complete T1 states directly from the T1 Config application. This makes it easy to back up, restore, and share banks and patterns. In the T1 Config application, open the PROJECT menu and locate the Project Save/Load section.
- Save: Saves the current state of the T1 as a new Project. The Project is stored locally on the connected computer as a .zip file.
- Load: Loads a previously saved Project onto the T1. This action opens a file dialog where you can select a .zip Project file. (Note: Loading a Project will overwrite all existing data on the T1 with the contents of the selected Project.)
- Hold mode: Allows notes to be latched, either from the T1’s internal keyboard or from an external MIDI source. To use Hold Mode, do the following:
- Convert a Track to an FX Track: Press [CTRL] and double-tap the Track.
- Open the keyboard: Double-tap the Track.
- Latch notes: Hold the desired notes and tap [CLEAR] to latch them. → Tap [CLEAR] again to release the latched notes.
- Up/Down and Climb Up/Down Voicing styles: Two new voicing modes are added on the T1.
- Up/Down: Moves the sequence linearly up and down in a triangle pattern ([VB4] for polyphonic, [VB12] for monophonic)
- Climb Up/Down: Moves the sequence like Up/Down, but creates a climbing motion by stepping one note down before moving onward. ([VB5] for polyphonic, [VB13] for monophonic)
- Lock random sequence per parameter: The random sequence can now be locked per parameter. This allows for keeping a random sequence for specific parameters, while adding variation on others.
- Tap and hold the RANDOM encoder
- Turn any encoder to add random modulation
- Double tap the turned encoder to bypass random variation for that parameter (the visualization goes from RED to BLUE, when the random sequence is locked)
- FX mode routing options
- Omni: Receive MIDI input from all channels
