This release also makes it possible to automatically activate supported control surfaces once they’re connected to USB MIDI ports. This feature currently works with the Ableton Push 2, PreSonus FaderPort 8, PreSonus FaderPort 16, Softube Console 1, and Contour Design Shuttle controllers.
This is awesome. I've been holding back on control surfaces like this for a while.
While Ardour 7.4 introduced sections to mark a range as a chorus and paste its entire contents and automation elsewhere, Ardour 7.5 improves this feature by adding some editor commands like cutting and pasting, copying and pasting, deleting, and inserting.
Nice as well. That's something I never knew I wanted until I had it. I suppose it's time to upgrade from 6.9.
I still have the free version 6, which is apparently not great for MIDI, though that's all I do with it at the moment.Doeas Ardour 7 have better MIDI support? Might consider paying the small price...
They also have a clip launcher now which is very cool. I just pay I think $3.50 a month, it's completely worth it. Have been paying that for about 6 or 7 years
MIDI definitely got better with 7.x, and I think 7.5 is supposed to have finished the refactoring they did on the tempo maps. Before, it was common for a note to not play if started exactly at the beginning of the bar, you had to nudge it a little bit.
