- Folder management: it is possible to group some files within a folder, so that you do not have a long list in the case of many files. The files are then located in the main "Home" level (in previous releases) or grouped within a folder. In the BBeat Manager, folders are highlighted on the left bar. Existing files can be moved to folders by selecting them from HOME and clicking on the "folders" icon on the bar.
On BBeat, folders are highlighted with the folder icon: pressing ENTER displays the files in the folder, pressing ESC takes you back. Folder playback is not allowed
- Ability to temporally shift a block of text in the text editor. By selecting the affected lines, it is possible to apply these lines or the small changes with (+) and (-) or simultaneously write the time on the input box or set color and alignment
- Ability to send PLAY and STOP from a MIDI-connected keyboard. There is a new option in MIDI INPUT SETUP for configuring commands. Connect the keyboard via MIDI to BBeat's USB port using a standard MIDI-USB converter if the keyboard is not USB. Since each keyboard sends its own mapped commands such as PLAY and STOP, BBeat "learns" what the MIDI commands are for PLAY and STOP (in the options, MIDI input setup). It is a kind of advanced "pedal" that includes PLAY and STOP.
- It is possible to mute a group, and it remains memorized even at the next power-up.
- The LINE IN input of the X can also be used with only one cable (MONO), and the signal is put in the center in stereo in the headphones. It must be configured in the Options (MONO LINE IN)
- Reduces or clears of impromptu audio noise. If the project has videos and if the project generates audio noise, it is best to reload these I video files.
- Fixes impromptu problems that caused crashes.
- Adjust the size of some characters in the playlist to accommodate longer writings (in the remote control view)
- Fixed problem that prevented B.Beat-X from being configured as a spare of B.Beat.
