Anvil Studio on MIDI-sävellysohjelmisto.
Anvil Studiolla voi luoda uusia MIDI-kappaleita helposti. Joko nuotti kerrallaan tai tallentamalla reaaliajassa soittimen painallukset. Käytössä on koko MIDI-formaatin soitinskaala. Lisäksi on mahdollista käyttää näppäimistöä tai koneeseen liitettävää koskettimistoa nuottien tallentamiseen. Lopullinen ääniraita voidaan koota useista päällekäisistä instrumenteistä. Ohjelmalla voi myös muokata *.mid -tiedostoja.

Changes in version 2012.10.06:

* Dragging notes from the palette to the staff now works properly when the Triplet, Quintuplet, or Septuplet checkbox is set.
* Improved beam lines.
* When Pro-Mix is installed, and 2 or more MIDI Out ports have the same name, e.g. USB Midi, Anvil Studio remembers which synthesizers were connected to each from one session to then next.
* Several subtle improvements.
Changes in version 2012.10.02:
* Able to load more VST-Instruments including Proteus VX.
* Now runs on systems that don't have .Net 2.0 installed, but do have .Net 4.0 installed.

* When multiple notes were selected only in the treble or bass clef and the Properties pop-up was selected, it sometimes missed some notes.
* Since version 2012.08.01, rhythm tracks were reverting to Instrument tracks.
Changes in version 2012.08.06:
* Anvil Studio now works well with more VST-Instruments, including the Garritan Aria Player.

Changes in version 2012.06.02:
* When playing a song that has VST-Instrument tracks and no audio tracks, adjusting the Audio Mix Vol slider while the song is playing no longer causes the song to pause. Adjusting this slider can eliminate VST-Instrument distortion.
* Got around a problem where some VST-Instruments would crash when bringing their editor via the View / Mixer's FX button.
Changes in version 2012.06.01:
* Added View / Options / Staff / Automatically generate tied notes checkbox, which changes staff so that if two notes are displayed in the same measure of the same clef,
e.g. a half note starts at beat 1 and quarter note starts at beat 2, the half note is displayed as 2 tied quarter notes.
* Audio samples can be dragged from Windows Explorer folders to the staff editor and dragged right/left within the staff editor.
* Audio files can also be dragged to Audio editor and piano roll's Edit Samples window.
* Added support for Locrian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian modes to the existing Major and Minor keys.

* If the Ctrl key is pressed while dragging the note, you can insert the new note at locations that overlap with existing notes where the Show: field controls the time-increment steps.
* An example where this is useful would be, if a measure had two half notes, and you wanted to add a quarter note to the last beat of the measure.
* Audio Samples can now be dragged to the Staff from the Audio Samples list below the staff.
P* unch-In now supports MIDI recording the same way it has always supported audio recording.
* Not all VST-Instruments respond to MIDI events for Volume and Left-Right Balance (PanPot) so we added a checkbox named This VST-Instrument responds to MIDI Pan and Vol to the View / Synthesizers screen.
* This is set by default. If you discover that a VST-Instrument does not seem to respond to the View / Mixer screen's Volume or L/R Balance control's, uncheck this checkbox. That will cause Anvil Studio to use those controls to alter the track's Audio volume.
* When using View / Note Properties to change the duration for range of notes, if the checkbox Shift Following Notes is unchecked, the location of the notes will not be changed.
* When changing to ASIO mode, Anvil Studio now first releases the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synthesizer so that it will not prevent the ASIO Driver from accessing the Audio Out device.
* Some improvements were made to how tied notes are displayed on the staff.
* In earlier versions, some songs whose tempo changed over time went silent when played to VST-Instruments.

* For tracks played by a VST-Instrument, changing the track's Pan/Volume now has an effect even if the VST-Instrument does not respond Pan/Vol MIDI Events.
* MIDI effects parameters can now be edited within a loop with Pro-Mix.
* Added a Lock Score checkbox to the Piano Roll / Rhythm editor.
* Problems fixed in this version:

* Several other bugs were fixed.
Changes in version 2012.03.01:
* This version does not uninstall the 2011 version, and you can move back and forth between the 2011 and 2012 versions.

* View / Upgrade Anvil Studio would sometimes report that it was unable to re-launch Anvil Studio because a file was not found.
* Improved the Help / Tutorials menu.
Changes in version 2012.01.01:
* The free version of Anvil Studio now includes access to a single VST-Instrument. This provides a wealth of new sounds and overcomes latency problems with the Microsoft GS Wavetable synthesizer.

* The per-track Balance control was not working correctly for tracks assigned to VST-Instruments.
* Simplified the options when it displays "The Audio device you have selected for Anvil Studio is different from the default Windows Control Panel device.
Changes in version 2011.11.03:
* You no longer need to choose between the staff editor and having loops within tracks. You can move seamlessly back and forth between the Piano Roll / Rhythm and the Staff editor. From Staff editor, select the menu Track / Loop this track.

* Added 3 more symbols to the end of View / Composer's symbol palette.

Changes in version 2011.10.01:
* Shows status in toolbar when data is received from a MIDI IN port, and when data is sent to a MIDI OUT port.
* Improved Edit / Insert MIDI Event / System Exclusive
* Added checkbox Synth is too slow to echo incoming events which replaces the Echo Midi Events to all synthesizers checkbox.
* This is set true by default for high latency (slow) synthesizers such as the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synthesizer, but it can be changed.
* If the active track is assigned to this synthesizer, when recording from an external MIDI keyboard:
** if this is checked, the keyboard will generate its own tones without delay rather then using this slow synthesizer.
** if this is unchecked, the keyboard generates no sound, and Anvil Studio uses the active track's synthesizer, program, and channel to play the notes.
To do this, Anvil Studio sets the external MIDI keyboard's Local Control setting.
When a song is played back, Anvil Studio always uses the Synthesizer assigned to the track to generate sounds. The tracks can be kept in sync in spite of the synthesizer's high latency by using the View / Latency screen.
* Added a new icon at the top of the View / Mixer screen has red arrows that show when a MIDI event has been sent to a MIDI port, or received from a MIDI port within the last half second.

* It no longer asks you to decide where to save an untitled song file immediately after recording an audio track, or when selecting the File / Export Mixed Audio menu. You can now leave the song Untitled until you exit, select File / New, or load another file, at which time you will be prompted to save it.
* Problems fixed in this version:
** It was leaving around files named UntiXXX.wav which it now cleans up.
** Sending System Exclusive messages to external synthesizers sometimes failed.
** Playing starting to play a long, starting in the middle, where the song had with lots of notes, Anvil Studio would sometimes incorrectly report unable to play this song in perfect sync when the song finished, even though it did play it in perfect sync.
** File / Repair Song sometimes reported non-errors.
** When loading a song file with audio tracks, it would sometimes incorrectly report that an audio track's file was in use by another program.
