Dtab V0.98 beta- Released  

Well, after months of hard work, the long awaited and now infamous triplet DTAB  update has been released.  The package has had a complete overhaul, from various brand new features like Tab Import (load/cut and paste Tabs into DTAB for playback/editing/re-arrange or simply export), Midi File Creation through to the numerous interface cosmetics and mouse editing refinements.    Resulting in simply the most powerful edition of DTAB to date.

While DTAB V0.98 is huge step forward,  this release is only a transition.  There are still updates to come for DTAB V1.00.  These will center mostly around Tab importing and few other tidbits like Staff remapping and tweaking final feel of the application

New Features in DTAB V0.98:

* IMPORT DRUM TAB (load or cut paste drum tabs from the web into DTAB)
* EXPORT MIDI FILES
* TRIPLETS (supports 1/8, 1/16, 1/32 note triplet groupings)
* Play Back has Bar / Section & Song PlayBack Modes
* Support Tempo Shifts
* Mouse can now draw notes directly onto the staff.
* New Time Signature window
* New compressed save/load format
* All New Colour EDITOR Display & Bar format.
Which Includes,
>> Auto Bar Resolution,
>> Auto Layout to windows view port
>> Sections breaks
>> Clickable bar and editor cursor position.
>> Highlighted Time Signature changes
>> Highlighted Editor Cursor position (count)
* Editor window now works like a top-down paged view of the song
* And prolly some other stuff i forgo

Special Pricing:

  DTAB V0.98 retails for a reduced price $14.95 (us). That's a $5 saving of the DTAB V1.00 retail.   So get in quick.

Dtab V0.98b  Updated


 This update corrects some key bugs in the initial release of V0.98 plus has various additions and improvements to the Tab Importer.    

 V0.98s Tab importer supports

 * The "Repeat" keyword
 * More staff lines built in (you can choose these sets also)
 * Open ended staffs .. (tabs that don't have a a clear opening divider..)
 * More 'custom' triplet subdivisions supported.

  While there's still a few things on the importers to-do list.  I'm very please with  the results in this edition.  The only real problem areas are tabs were the author has used an uncommon convention, or failed to explicitly defined something.  

  Anyway, great the update and get tabbing !

Dtab V0.98f Update Released

 This update rounds out the stability and functionality of the V0.98 release.   Most of the new code has been adding the final improvements to the tab importer.  Which now give the Dtab user, an evener larger range of material they can import and play back.  

New Tab Import features in this release

* Mult Bar repeats  (including  Nested Repeats )
* Alternative endings (including support for out of sequences endings and shared endings.  )
* and yet More 'custom' triplet subdivisions supported.

The importer now supports all the most common tabbing conventions used by Tabbers world wide.  As such, it can be made to import and play just about anything in this format.  However, If you have tabs that are in a custom format, and want to import and play them now, well, make sure you read the "How To Import Tab'  thread in the DTAB format.

Anyway, go grab the update and get tabbing !
