Note: Capo 3.2 now requires a minimum of OS X 10.9 Mavericks to run

New Features

• We added a totally new UI for changing chord entries, and it now matches the latest iOS release more closely. You can now change all chords of a given type when making corrections to Capo's detection results.
• Brand-new help file! This took a lot of work to get set up for, and even more work to arrange the content within. We hope you like it!
• You can now export Capo's detected chords to MIDI format in addition to the note entries
• Capo now allows you to visit our newsletter page and sign up from the welcome screen

New Features

• Regions - Set up regions that snap to the beats in your song, and get clean loops with no fuss.
