JambaLaya MIDI Performance Software For Macintosh OS X

I found some problems with 1.1.3 on Leopard systems - CoreAudio initialization errors prevented the default empty document from being created. A little fiddling around and I got it to work. There is otherwise nothing new in this release.

If you have a working 1.1.3, you don't need to update. If you have a gig tonight and your JambaLaya is working, don't upgrade. If you have no pressing engagements and you just like to be up to date, by all means download the latest version.

JambaLaya now supports MIDI control mappings for Next Song, Previous Song, Next Set, Previous Set, and Select Song Number X in Set. They can be set up in the MIDI Learn window.

Also, the Mute and Solo buttons have been fixed.

Download the new version or choose JambaLaya->Check for Updates.

Download the new version.

Users have been having problems selecting an Audio IO Device using the standard sound picker and admittedly the out of the box experience wasn't great (cryptic error dialog with just a Quit button).

Now, JambaLaya will ask what IO Device you want if you don't have one selected. Or you can switch at any time by choosing "Change Audio Device..." from the JambaLaya menu.

Also fixed a crash related to opening new files.

I attended Apple's WWDC and got to meet a number of people on the CoreAudio and Cocoa teams. They helped me fix some long standing annoyances and implement a couple new goodies. JambaLaya 1.1.0 is the result. This is largely a bug fix release although it does add a nifty new graphical transition from mixer to lyrics view and midi note message feedback on the range mapper.

Check the appcast for more details. Or just download it and check it out.

JambaLaya 1.0.9 is the first commercial release. The download is the full program but it will refuse to open or save files without a license key. Download it now.

Unfortunately, the paypal and key generation part of the website isn't working yet so if you want to purchase a license, just email and I'll send you a paypal invoice, and subsequently a license.
