All-Star Tweaks
[p align="start"]All-Star's been getting a lot of play, so this pass is about making the handoffs easier to read, song selection reflecting the proper heat, and overall tweaks to which instruments are chosen during All-Star play. It's still what I'd consider experimental so Jam Rating is still turned off for All-Star mode.[/p]
- [p]You'll now see a swap marker on the lane before a handoff, with the incoming instrument, so the change isn't a surprise.[/p]
- [p]The auto-picks are steadier: better about staying on the tune, and swapping at natural breaks instead of jumping around.[/p][p][/p]

Song Select - Snappier, Clearer
- [p]Browsing and hovering songs should hitch less.[/p]
- [p]Every song button now shows how many playable parts it has, so you can tell a duo from a full band at a glance.[/p]
- [p]Fixed the BPM readout on songs with dummy lead-in bars - the number you see is the real tempo.[/p][p][/p]

Hear Yourself Online Better
[p align="start"]In online play,
your instrument sits in front of the mix so you can actually hear what you're playing instead of getting buried under the rest of the band.[/p][p][/p]

Fixes and Changes
- [p]Ornaments (trills, runs, and the like) now behave correctly on songs that change tempo mid-track.[/p]
- [p]An issue allowing songs to have long tails of silence at the end of songs has been fixed[/p][p][/p]

Metadata editor additions
[p]The metadata editor packaged in your install folder /Tools/<your platform> has been updated![/p]
- [p]You can now batch edit files by copying data from one then pasting that data to multiple other files. This is helpful if you have a large library of songs that share the same genre, sub-genre, or author[/p]
- [p]You can batch swap genre and sub-genre of songs using the right click context menu[/p][p][/p]
