Synfire 2.5.0
This version uses a new procedure for download and installation. We have addressed issues on macOS with "broken" installers and uninstallers. The server now compiles a monolithic package in a DMG image. Both are code signed so GateKeeper should no longer complain (if it still does on your Mac, let us know).
Installation on Windows should also be more smooth now that everything is contained in a sealed package.
Snippets can now be exported as audio loops. You can drag the aiff/wav files to Ableton Live (select multiple files in the same group). It should work similarly on BitWig, Logic and other DAWs.
The drumkit factory has been fixed.
Enjoy!
