Sunvox is a serious music application. I am personally running it on my iphone. In the overcrowded world of music apps, Sunvox stands out as both unique and powerful. If you are a musician and own an iphone, you owe it to yourself to try this amazing application!

* Loop: new controller "On NoteON" (restart with transition to zero iteration (record);restart current iteration); see simple_examples/loop4.sunvox;
* bug fixes.
v2.1:
* now the interface is displayed in high resolution; if you want to switch back to the normal low resolution mode (on some devices this will increase the FPS) - go to the Preferences -> Interface -> Low resolution;
* Preferences -> Audio -> Additional options: new option "minimize the amount of system-supplied signal processing" (measurement mode);
* high resolution icons;
* high resolution fonts with fractional scaling; you can disable these features in Preferences -> Interface -> Fonts;
* sound engine optimization;
* Distortion: new type "saturation" (adding odd harmonics) + five of its variations;
* MultiSynth: new option "Output port number = random" (three different algorithms are available);
* Loop: new controller "Length unit" (line/128;line;line/2;line/3;tick;ms;Hz);
* Loop: new controller "Maximum buffer size" (in seconds) to protect against allocating too much memory;
* Loop: the maximum of the "Repeat" controller has been increased to 128 (128 = repeat endlessly);
* new curve types for ADSR and FMX modules: rect; smooth rect; 2-bit (linear); 3-bit; 4-bit; 5-bit;
* module editor menu: new function "Mute/Solo buttons" to show/hide the Bypass/Mute/Solo buttons under each module;
* musical keyboard: the new panel with additional functions and settings; to open it - increase the height of the keyboard and press the appeared "+" button;

* pattern editor menu -> Remap: module number -1 = all modules;
* more detailed pattern names after the live recording;
* new pattern effect (column EE): 35 - bind MIDI OUT message XX (0 - Program Change; 1 - Channel Pressure; 2 - Pitch Bend Change) to controller YY (0 - OFF; 0x80 - MIDI controller 0; 0x81 - MIDI controller 1...); for the specified module only;
* new special pattern command: "XX" - stop the module, clear its internal buffers and put it into standby mode;
* new keyboard shortcuts (unassigned by default) that open the corresponding tool windows in the pattern editor:
* interpolate;
* transpose;
* cyclic shift;
* set effect;
* draw;
* new keyboard shortcuts (unassigned by default) for the pattern editor:
* clear pattern;
* shrink pattern /2;
* expand pattern *2;
* slice by cursor;
* reverse;
* pattern properties;
* show/hide CCEEXXYY columns;
* scale;
* insert a special command "Stop the Module" (XX);
* new keyboard shortcuts for working with the brush:
* CTRL+E - play current note (in the pattern editor) and copy it to the brush;
* CTRL+L - play the notes of the current line (in the pattern editor) and copy it to the brush;
* play the 1st line of the brush (unassigned by default);
* сopy selected area of the pattern to the brush (unassigned by default);
* CTRL+G - paste from the brush;
* new modules in the instruments/ and effects/ folders;
