New in BaseHead 4.2.134 (May 10, 2017)

  • The biggest deal about this update is…
  • Transferring: Now when transferring files (with "Create Unique Filenames" is OFF) it checks if a destination file exists with the same exact attributes and if so it skips copying and just sends it to your DAW. This should make cutting long files like Ambiences using the same files over and over much faster now and safe to turn OFF “Create Unique Filenames” now for PT users “In theory” and counterstrike a Pro Tools bug that they never fixed on their end.
  • Browser: AutoPlay fixed.

  • Libraries: When double click a folder it shows the contents only now and no longer showing files of similar names also in the DB.
  • Adding ID3 Cover Art: Progress Bar added for when adding to multiple files
  • 4.x Lite: Fixed crash when importing with Command+I menu item
  • Fixed Loop/Cycle Playback

New in BaseHead 4.0.79 (Aug 15, 2015)

  • CHANGES AND FIXES:
  • To speed up transfers it checks if Sample Rate and Bit Depth already match and it so the file is just copied and no longer sample rate converted. So Probably a good idea to batch convert all your ambiences to 48/24 or whatever you attributes you use most.
  • Unique Filename massive improvements that should clear up a bunch of random error messages esp. for PT users.
  • Made iXML writing errors less harsh
  • the "R" description injecting window now works with multi-select also in the Results Page and also the Browser
  • Better user feedback when Rescanning Imports
  • PeekTree Expander states recalled properly again on next launch
  • Split Stereo files are now transferred with _ST.wav on the end
  • Taglist: Spotting Checked Items from Actions Menu works again.
  • CNTRL+X no longer double copies from the Taglist
  • Nuendo and Cubase Xfer optimizations also in code.
  • Taglist: Spotting to PT should be much improved!
  • Import Windows: New Feature in the BETA:
  • "Enable Crash Resume" When ON importing will be slightly slower but will now resume importing on next launch if BH crashes in the middle.
  • (Not 100% complete still, but it's working for the most part)
