Hello all,

 Thanks to everyone who took part in the reViSiT Experiment! 
 Get your copy of reViSiT 1.5 Pro now! 

The research and experiment are now drawing to a close - and, as promised, a new version of reViSiT Pro without the data collection for the experiment, now awaits you.

Before you start using it, you simply need to complete a short End-of-Experiment Questionnaire.
Afterwards, your new activation code for reViSiT 1.5 Pro (and all future 1.x versions) will be promptly emailed to you.

This new Christmas bumper-version of reViSiT features:

• MIDI file import.
  Load any of the 100,000's of musical works on the Internet and edit them in the pattern editor. Picking apart other pieces is a great way to learn about music and song writing - and giving an old track a new lease of life, with the odd remix, can be immensely fun!
    
• Annotation / comment feature.
  Scribble notes to your self over the pattern, using the annotation feature. Move to a row, or make a selection, and hit @ to switch to annotation mode, then write anything you like, beside your music. For examples, you could label sections of your music, put down place-holders for things To Do later, write an introductory page for your piece, send greetings to your listeners or jot down any kind of notes to yourself - the options are literally endless!
    
• Improved host window integration.
  Depending on your host, reViSiT's editor window need no longer float above and apart from the host - but appear inside it. Combined with the link windows feature, this innovation gives you all the advantages of a single-window reViSiT, whilst retaining reliable keyboard support and a resizable window - no more losing the reViSiT window behind the host! (Let me know how you get on with this one - and whether you'd like a toggle for the feature. At the moment, the rule is, the editor window will try to appear in whichever container the toolbar window floats in. So, if you have your reViSiT toolbar separate from the host - e.g. always on top - then the editor window will be too).
   
• Significantly improved file loading.
  Thanks to tweaks and optimisations, sample and song loading is now up to 10x faster, which should help you as you browse through your sample / instrument libraries. File format support is also expanding - this version sees support for FLAC lossless audio files (8, 16 or 24 bit, mono or stereo), and more will be added later. Vote here to see your favourite formats in future versions of reViSiT!

reViSiT 1.5 Pro also includes many other improvements, changes and fixes to help your music-making - see release notes for full details.

Thanks again - have a good holiday - and hope to see you down the road!
