[September 28th, 2023]

NEW

– Added “Identify MIDI devices by port ID” option to identify MIDI ports by ID (selected) or by Name (deselected – default for iPadOS 17)

FIX

– Preset renaming not allowed for Nord Stage 4 Smart Map

Important note:

This update is highly recommended for iPadOS 17 users.
Previous version of Camelot Pro on iPadOS 17 force the user replace MIDI ports every time they are reconnected to the device. This is because iPadOS 17 doesn’t cache MIDI port IDs anymore, so the ID changes once the port is reconnected to the device.
With Camelot Pro v2.2.8 the user can tell Camelot Pro to identify MIDI ports by Name, so, even if the port ID changes, the reconnection is performed using the port Name.
The drawback is that it’s not possible to discriminate between two devices with the same port name. Note that it’s not rare to have two devices with the same name, for example in case of two identical keyboard controllers used for playing a two manuals drawabar organ plugin, or in case of two identical 5din-to-USB interface (e.g. Roland UM-ONE). In this case, we recommend selecting the “Identify MIDI devices by port ID” option.
