v5.7.1 | Fri, Oct 2, 2026
Thanks for using Drum Notation by Beat Note!
IMPROVEMENTS
- Display settings: a new Display button on the Practice screen opens a popover that makes it clearer how to choose the app's color scheme.
- The Loop, Click, Tempo, Time Signature and Timer popovers have a cleaner, easier-to-read look, and the Timer picker is simpler to use.
- Measure numbers are now placed more consistently relative to the staff on screen, in exported PDFs and in videos, and repeated measures now show their number too.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed rhythm counts and sticking labels sitting slightly to the left of their notes.
- Fixed sticking marks below the staff sitting too close to the notes.
- Fixed beat titles and page numbers sometimes missing from exported PDFs.
- Fixed a crash when dismissing the Export MP4 paywall.
- Fixed a crash that could happen while an export finished.
