Make your life easier

Over the past year we have been deep in development to further expand the capabilities of Divisimate. For that a lot of technical ground work was needed, to open up new possibilities.

In this update we want to share a number of things already that make life with Divisimate easier. 

There is a lot more coming later this year!

W

License Management

With this update we are introducing a new licensing solution that comes with its own user area. You can now remotely deactivate your copy, see how many activations you have left and download the most recent full installer all in one place.

Nextmidi Hub

The Nextmidi Hub is a new helper application that runs in the background and takes care of managing the Divisimate Ports. This means that ports will no longer vanish on Mac when you close Divisimate. And it will come in really handy in the future too.

UI Updates

As we went through and revamped a lot of things in the background, we have also revisited the UI in a number of places. The trigger plugin for instance has received a redesign to make it quicker and more easy to switch between articulations with keyswitches.

DivisiControl Update

It has been a while since our remote control app has gotten an update. This update introduces the performance quickload to the app and brings technical improvements to comply with newer versions of mobile operating systems.

Improved: Optimized performance while processing large amounts of CC data

 

New Features in Divisimate 1.3

Transposer Scale Lock

Transposer plugins can now not only transpose notes chromatically, but also lock to a global scale. Notes from this scale will be transposed by the selected number of steps up or down on the selected scale, while non-scale-notes will be approximated to ensure clear voice leading. There is a number of scales to choose from, but the scale can also be customized freely. Any changes made to the scale in any transposer plugin will apply to all transposers with active scale lock. The root note of the scale can be static, or set to dynamically follow notes played in the LOW Range, if active.

Manage Performances

Save, Load, Export, Import and store Perform Page Layouts (Performances) and the corresponding Presets and load them from within Divisimate in a dedicated menu. 

Performance Quickload Menu

Assign your favorite Performances to one of 10 quickload slots to quickly switch between different layouts for specific projects or templates. 

Default Presets

For each performance you can now save a default preset that will be loaded whenever you open Divisimate fresh. 

Perform Page Drag & Drop

Reorder your presets on the perform page using Drag & Drop. Press Ctrl/Cmd to drag&drop quickly without any click-hold delay. 

MIDI Remote Expansion

The MIDI Remote (Program Change or CC#31) can now access the performance quickload slots on values 101-110. It can also control Power On/Off (On= 121, Off= 122), Bypass (On=123, Off=124) and switch the Divisi Mode (Top Down = 125, Bottom Up = 126, Fill Voices =127)

MPE Input Support

MIDI Input from MPE Keyboards can now be automatically recognized and distributed. MPE Controllers associated with a specific note will be sent through along with the note to the respective port. As of now, only Lower Zone MPE (Global Channel = 1) is supported.

Load Presets & Performances from Explorer/Finder

As you open Divisimate, all presets and performances located in the corresponding folders will be converted to a new format with a dedicated file ending. These files can be opened from the finder/explorer with Divisimate and will then immediately load in Divisimate. 

Tempo Sync for the Repeater

Route the MIDI Clock from your DAW to the Divisimate Loopback Port to enable the Repeater tempo to synchronize with your DAW. This way the generated rhythms of the Repeater will follow any tempo changes in your DAW.

_____________________

Changelog:

    • Fixed: The note names in the trigger plugin are now identical with the note names in most major DAWs. Also the range of possible notes has been extended to C-1 to include the lowest octave of keyswitches. Unfortunately this fix is not backwards compatible, so presets containing the trigger will need to be corrected.
    • Fixed: Repeater plugin not playing the correct rhythm when it is receiving more than one note
    • Fixed: Rare issue of some repeater plugins staying silent when there is a large number of plugins initialized
    • Fixed: Issue with release tails being cut by Divisimate in Vienna Ensemble and Studio One with Vienna Instruments
    • Fixed: Hanging notes when the input device is note sending on channel one.
    • Fixed: Legato transitions were not being triggered by some instruments, since there was no actual overlap of notes with legato passages in the Divisi Engine.
    • NEW FEATURE: Divisimate will now automatically check if there is an update available and display a badge linking to the download page if there is a more recent version.
    • NEW FEATURE: There is now a Divisimate Loopback Input port which can be activated on the Settings pages under “Input Devices”. This allows you to route MIDI from other software (for example from your DAW) directly into Divisimate without using workarounds.

Caution: With this feature it is possible to create MIDI feedback loops. When you use it, make sure that you are connecting Divisimate Ports to the loopback input port.

    • Added: Compatibility with Android Phone & Tablet apps.

Open the door to a whole new workflow

Divisimate is available as a standalone software for Mac and PC. The remote control app “DivisiControl” is available for iOS (iPad and iPhone) and Android (Phone & Tablet)
