WiseTrax -- WiseTracker VST Edition
v0.1.6 (Closed Beta)

WiseTrax is a little tracker that lives inside your DAW as a VST3 plugin.
Write patterns the classic tracker way -- notes and effects in a grid --
drop in your own samples, or load a whole FastTracker II module, and play
it in time with your project.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL  (Windows, VST3)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Copy "WiseTrax.vst3" into your VST3 folder:
      C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\
2. Start your DAW and rescan plugins if it doesn't show up.
3. Add WiseTrax to an instrument / MIDI track.

(Windows 64-bit VST3 only for now.)

FIRST FEW MINUTES
-------------------------------------------------------------------
- Drag a WAV onto the SAMPLES strip to load a sound. Drop in a single
  clear note and WiseTrax tunes it for you, so it plays in pitch across
  the keyboard. Or drop a .xm file onto the plugin to load a whole module.
- The INSTRUMENTS panel on the right lists every sound, with a per-sample
  inspector underneath: click an instrument to hear it, see its root note
  and tempo (each with a dot showing how it was worked out), and preview
  it with the play / loop buttons. Drag in several files -- or a whole
  folder -- to load them all at once.
- New in this build: once you zoom into a sample's waveform, a navigator
  strip appears along the bottom -- a mini view of the whole sample with a
  box you drag to scroll, click to jump, or drag by its edge to zoom.
- Press PLAY in your DAW. WiseTrax follows the host tempo and transport.
- Click EDIT (or press Space) to start editing, then type notes with the
  Z..M and Q..U key rows. Press - / + to change octave.
- Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y undo and redo anything, everywhere in the plugin --
  loading a sample included.
- Hover anything for a quick tip, and open Help (the book icon up top)
  for the full guide and What's New.

IT'S AN EARLY BETA

This is an early closed beta -- some things are still missing and you
