Our in-house engineers are still researching teleportation in sound space. Until we achieve a breakthrough, we’ve used the time to noticeably improve Calypso in several areas: • YouTube asked you to log in if you wanted to watch the YouTube tutorials from Help. We have therefore ported the tutorials to Vimeo. • Single-page landscape scores were not displayed when the iPad was in portrait orientation. Improved layout for single-page landscape scores • The last songbook was displayed underneath the bottom toolbar • PDF export is once again fully functional and has been optimized for minimal memory usage. • Scanner filter settings now include an adaptive filter for better black-and-white image conversion. • A rare issue with in-app purchases has been fixed. • When opening Calypso with a file from the Mail or Files app, you should no longer see an “insufficient access rights” error. • Minor improvements and a new clear button in the Image Composer now allow you to create a transparent background easily. • more minor bug fixes

The purchases were not displayed in the Calypso settings.

There is an improvement in the auto-layout behavior: if the auto-layout is already showing parts of the next page, then this layout is retained even if you synchronize the spot by tapping a bar. Important bug fixes - Automatically hiding the toolbars now works reliably. - Missing button for the note layout in song edit mode. - YouTube reported an error with the tutorial videos in the Help. The new specifications from YouTube had to be implemented. - Other small improvements

- Adjustments for iOS 26, in particular the adaptation to the window size. - Fixed minor bugs

Improvements and extensions: - The Calypso own scanner for creating PDFs with the camera is now equipped with filters - Creating a set of songs with labels of the same color - Annotations window revised - More minor improvements Fixed crashes: - If the listener was active and you wanted to hide the song list and then activate the listener again, then Calypso crashed - Rare crash in the annotations window remedied when switching from the color selector

Dear Calypso-users, Just in time for the holiday season, we’re excited to bring you a new update packed with enhancements and exciting new features! Look forward to improved performance, numerous bug fixes, and features designed to make your workflow even smoother. A heartfelt thank you for your support and feedback – you help us make Calypso Score better with every update. We wish you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! - The behavior of the audio buttons 'Play' and 'Record' can now be varied in the Calypso settings. • Switch 'PLay' off immediately after each playback • Switch off 'Play' when changing songs • Turn off 'Play' when exiting the app • 'Play' stays on again even after a restart • Turn 'Record' off after each recording • Switch off 'Record' after recording and switch on 'Play' immediately • Switch off 'Record' when changing songs • 'Record' remains on until you exit the app. Dabvei creates a continuous audio file that is saved in the 'Audio Recordings' folder - New metronome sounds and visuals. The metronome sounds can also be set individually for each song - The search is retained for each table, even after a restart - Improved the annotations-window. Also improved annotations with the stylus - You can now select a symbol in the annotations window and then simply tap into your music sheet to place that symbol there - New option: show the magnifying glass when drawing by hand - Guitar tabs and the corresponding button in the toolbar are now displayed correctly again - The "On Cue" button appears again - The behavior of the PageTurner when decelerating / accelerating has been revised and two new options have been introduced, which are explained to you in the settings - Minor corrections in the csv import of Fakebook indexes - fixed crash when a color image should be converted to black and white in song edit mode - minor bug fixes

This version is specifically tailored to the iOS 18 update so that you can continue to work with Calypso without any problems. - a new option allows for quick scrolling without animation  - the appearance of the spot can be customized and you can turn the spot off

There is a nice new feature: You can now sort the song list by “last viewed” and “last played”.

- When creating a new song, a new songbook can now also be created - fixed: text to be edited in the list entries is now easy to read again - fixed: splitting double-sided PDF pages in the song creation assistant had problems with some PDFs - the dark and light appearance can only be used via the iOS appearance - other minor bugs fixed

New option to create a songbook while creating a new song using the wizard. - fixed a very rare crash that occurred when using half-page turning on a single-page song. - fixed: with some PDFs the pages were displayed rotated - fixed minor issues

Our music scientists have proposed a new hypothesis: they suspect the tritone substitution could be a quantum mechanical tunnel in the circle of fifths (Of course only if the circle of fifths is not flat but round).  While we're reviewing this, we've made the following improvements to Calypso Score: - the song creation assistant has a new button to bisect pages horizontally or vertically. Very useful for double-paged scans. - new settings option: Each songbook has its own sorting for the song lists - all annotations of a specific type or any type can be deleted at once - fixed: vanishing annotations in the New Bob Book - of course, we also fixed other bugs

- added link to privacy policy and term of use - modified some texts

You can now install Calypso Score for free and test it for 14 days without restrictions. This is a great opportunity to get to know the many possibilities. - A new outstanding feature is the transposable New Bob Book, a fake book with 666 songs that guitarist Bob Roetker has made freely available. It allows you to transpose any of its 666 songs into any key - melody and chords, in excellent readable quality! You can download it for free. - you can now assign multiple color labels to a song - Improved compatibility with iOS 17: the PDF scanner now works again and is also available in song edit mode. - minor bugs corrected Merry Christmas

Research into nano tonality showed that even intervals could not be infinitely small. The most minor possible interval we named after an important physicist as the Planck interval. Separately, we developed a scanner for document management in Calypso. The scanner automatically recognizes your sheet music in the iPad camera and crops the photos accordingly. A filter then optimizes the contrast and at the same time the memory requirement. And finally, a multi-page PDF is generated from all edited photos. Improvements: - When importing setlists, existing setlists are no longer deleted - New option to delete all setlists - Improved csv import for your own fakebooks. The separator of the different fields is now recognized automatically. - Improved page turner recognition for iOS +14 Bug fixes: - Shéet music photographed with the camera were sometimes rotated by 90°. - Fixed a crash when using the metronome as a count-in - Crash when exporting an audio file with playback parameters - Crash when exporting a song with a '/' in the song title - Very rare crash when playing audio files Many more bug fixes and optimizations.

Version 7 has powerful new features and improvements to all aspects of the app. Key enhancements include: • NEW! Half-Page Turning: Powerful automated page turning was already available with our Auto-Layout feature, but the new Half-Page Turning feature offers an alternative way to set up your scores for performance. The two methods are complementary: Auto-Layout is fully automated, whereas Half-Page Turning is designed to work with manual page turning using gestures or a Bluetooth pedal. Half-Page Turning is also enabled in Fakebooks in addition to Songbooks. Check out our three new video tutorials to learn more about this feature. Users who have previewed this feature think it’s a game changer in music reading apps. • NEW! Tuner tool: Available in the Recital toolbar. The button can be hidden in Settings • NEW! Advanced audio engine: Improves stability and quality of attached recordings and the embedded keyboard. Add your own sound libraries to the keyboard using freely available SoundFonts (.sf2 files) • Pitch and tempo settings for audio files are now included in exports • Audio can be sent to Airplay directly from the Recordings Manager • Settings have been reorganized to improve ease of use • Apple Pencil integration has been updated to improve the feel when drawing; double tap with Apple Pencil toggles Draw and Erase modes • Improved selection of annotation symbols • Option to delete all unused songbook songs (i.e., songs that are not assigned to a songbook) to reduce the size of your database file • 19 new fakebook indexes • Many other improvements! • compatible with iPadOS 16.1 Calypso now requires iOS 13 or greater. v 7.0.2 - fixed an annoying bug where the music score would occasionally disappear when swiping down - the slider for the trigger level in the acoustic starter is more responsive

Our expansion of string theory by an additional dimension has enabled us to expand and improve your beloved sheet music app with the following functions: - in the Songbooks viewer, a button is displayed in the notes for repetitive jumps that are ended on cue. Tapping this button means that this part is not repeated anymore and the spot will advance over the jump mark. - in the Calypso settings there is a new setting panel 'Backup and Databases'. Here you can choose whether your audio recordings and your Fakebook PDFs should be saved in a backup. In addition, Calypso can now share or export your entire database, which you can use e.g. for a quick backup to your computer or transfer your data to a second device because Calypso can import a database and use several of them. As an example one database for your gigs and another one for your teaching. Usually you still only have one database with all of your songs. - improved behavior when zooming notes. When zoomed in, the notes can now be moved with just one finger. The same applies if a keyboard is currently visible. - the time until the iPad goes idle can now be specified in the Calypso settings. As before, the default setting is 15 minutes. - the crash when importing a copy-protected audio file from the music library has been fixed - genre in the song creation workflow is now adopted - other minor bugs have been fixed Thank you for all your kind feedback.

Thanks again for all the feedback that has helped improve Calypso and fix various minor bugs. - prepared for the upcoming iOS version - much improved PDF export - adjusting annotations and markers when you change the layout of a sheet (zoom, rotate, position) - the cloud button could only be used once if the dialog was closed by moving it downwards - the animated layout ends by itself at the end of a song if only one page is displayed - improved animated layout engine for some rare cases - Arrow keys on hardware keyboards can now be used if a Bluetooth page turner is not used - handling of large PDFs optimized - there is a new option 'Reopen last page #' in the song settings. This is very useful for 'songs' that are used as study material so you can pick up where you left off. - swiping to the left of an item in a list is back. You can again Edit / Delete something - correct handling of some rotated PDFs - some minor bugs fixed concerning the color selector of annotations - the text-clear button (small cross at the end of a text input field) is back! - all bar markers of a page or song can now be quickly removed - fixed some bugs which made the reordering of song pages cumbersome - fixed: text annotations sometimes seemed to be truncated - fixed: handling of song info from sticky notes - fixed a minor bug when Calypso got a file from the Files app - fixed listener, after Calypso was terminated and reopened - fixed some minor bugs

Thank you for the feedback that has resulted in various improvements and bug fixes: - Starting a search by tapping the little glass is a bit awkward. You can now swipe down the title area at the top of any list. - Again, the text scanner has been improved - You can now manually improve the sheet layout after Calypso has created the automatic layout - Fast song creation is back. Quickly create a song from all the pages of a PDF file. The song title set after the name of the PDF file - Fixed a crash when Calypso was started by opening an importable file. If Calypso was already running, it did not crash. - Fixed: Annotations could sometimes disappear - Various improvements to the context menu emulation for iOS 9 - iOS 12 - Improved context menu options regarding setlists - The import of fake book setlists has been corrected

The new way of creating a song has been very popular. With this version, it is again significantly improved. So it no longer happens that Calypso suggests the 2nd trombone as a composer after scanning the sheet music ;-) It is now also possible to assign a recognized text to the song title, composer/lyricist, or genre more intuitively. Tempo specifications are also partially recognized. Landscape format notes are recognized better and the display/layout of some PDFs is improved. The new What's-New hints and tips now use short videos instead of gifs, which makes them run more smoothly. Together with the many other, smaller improvements, a version jump to 6.1 is definitely justified :-) Thank you for the extensive feedback on the last version!

This is a fantastic release and worthy of a new main version number. When using a new workflow to generate a song from a PDF, Calypso will now analyze your music score. It scans the music sheets and rotates and zooms them to best fit the screen of your iPad. Text is also recognized that can be assigned to the song title or the composer or lyricist. But that's not all: for each list entry, a long tap opens a context menu that offers you options for editing, sharing, deleting, and more. Much of this was previously possible but is now centrally accessible. In addition, new possibilities for printing and sharing have opened up, in particular, the use of AirDrop is now possible. And last but not least, new users are better trained in the most important functions than before. All other users are presented with the new functions via animated images. Thank you for all your contributions. Merry Christmas to You.

Thanks to all users who contributed their feedback to the improvements. - you can now access some tutorial videos via the help center, which will certainly not only inspire new users. - new option 'Export PDFs with Annotations', so you are now able to switch them OFF - new option for editing a song title: "Initial capital letters ..." You can now specify, whether all words should start with capital letters (like in the English spoken world) or only the first word of a sentence (like in German) - some rare stability issues have been fixed - some minor bugs concerning the PDF export, a vanishing toolbar, and the page-turner fixed

This time, Calypso got some minor bugs fixed, which were kindly reported from some Calypso users (thank you): - fixed: some Bluetooth page-turners have the capability to force the appearance of the virtual keyboard. This did confuse Calypso which set the page-turner to the disconnected state. - fixed: empty text annotations couldn't be moved around without disappearing - fixed: in teaching mode, you were not able to add text annotations. - fixed: the weird sorting of the song- and fake books if they had no stars assigned
