New Major Features (U-SYNC):

• Multiple Nomes can now sync to U-SYNC (by syncing one of them and then chaining the other ones)
• Control DAW tempo from Nome in Ableton, Bitwig, Cubase, and Nuendo (i.e. bidrectional control) - https://forum.simntonic.com/viewtopic.php?t=117
• Support for UAD Luna - https://forum.simntonic.com/viewtopic.php?t=404
• Support for Steinberg Nuendo

New Minor Features (Nome FW):

• On the Nome, in the settings, you can now change the time signature denominator by pressing down the knob and turning

Fixed issues (U-SYNC):

• U-SYNC get confused when connecting multiple Nomes - https://forum.simntonic.com/viewtopic.php?t=480
• On Pro Tools, U-SYNC Plugin getting stuck when saving while playback is running - https://forum.simntonic.com/viewtopic.php?t=476
• Installer not working on (very) old macOS versions (issue introduced in U-SYNC 1.2)

Internal Improvements (Nome FW):

• Improved U-SYNC communication with the Control Surface scripts
• Slight changes in the knob acceleration algorithm (i.e. how the tempo changes when the knob is quickly rotated)

Great!

Just to be sure:

For us Windows users; do need to run the U-sync tool to get bi-directional control of the tempo, or can we just activate the control surface script and it should work?

[Simon]

Sorry Maarten unfortunately the bi-directional control is only available with U-SYNC.

I really hope we can release a version for Windows relatively soon - and if not I will definitely improve the audio-sync plugin and method, adding the bi-directional control there as well. But all hopes for U-SYNC - we'll get there, sorry it takes this long

Ah I assumed that bidirectional control would work just fine in conjunction with the 24P sync method.

Too bad, but I will wait patiently
