More desktop improvements coming soon. Desktop Controls: - WASD for camera movement, scroll to zoom camera, middle click to pan camera - Left click to grab a control or interact with a menu - Right click to reset a control - G/H to toggle left/right headphones. You can also now click the left/right of the headphone icon on the mixer to toggle them. - ` (tilde key) to toggle between VR and Desktop input without restarting the app. - Escape to show the exit prompt * Fixed issue where in rare cases quantized FX could kill audio output on the primary device. Also added safety checks to prevent any potential similar issues from affecting the audio output in the future * Many misc bug fixes * Notice: Beatport support on PC has been temporarily disabled due to engine incompatibilities with their latest SDK requirements. It will be readded as soon as we finish some necessary work that will resolve this incompatibility.

0.10.9 Release Notes: * Added TIDAL support. Login with your TIDAL subscription to practice with your favorite tracks and the entire TIDAL catalog.

Subscribing provides complete access to everything in Tribe. This includes new content previously unavailable on Steam, including the Acid Synth, Vinyl Decks, video call hosting, new environments, and any future content.

We welcome any feedback as we expect to make more improvements. * Desktop Mode (beta) - Lets you use Tribe with a mouse and keyboard. Used by default if no HMD is connected on launch or using launch option -nohmd. This is a beta, so expect bugs and rough edges! Lessons and multiplayer are not yet fully supported, I recommend you only try desktop mode in solo freeplay for now. More improvements to come, let us know what you'd like to see. * With quantize enabled, hot cues now trigger on beat after being pressed (previously only quantized the position when setting the hot cue). * Space and dub echo color FX now continue to echo post fader (matches real equipment). * Many bug fixes Desktop Controls: * WASD or arrow keys to move camera, zoom with mouse wheel * Move mouse to move hand, grab controls with left click, reset with right click * Toggle main menu with Q and music menu with E * Press O to toggle between VR and desktop mode

0.10.3 Release Notes: * Auto-Camera - Make your Video Calls and Twitch streams more dynamic with cinematic camera movements and cuts on right on beat, using the master track’s beatgrid for timing. * New Deck Menu - Use this new menu to load your music, change equipment, create recordings and tweak your visuals, all conveniently located directly above the mixer.

Note the "DJ Mode" button for back to back has been moved to the Rooms menu. * Fixed Reverb G2 inputs * Improved pause brake handling and fixed issue that could break playback tempo temporarily * Fixed avatars sometimes freezing in multiplayer * Fixed occasional crash when closing a video call * Fixed loops set by clients sometimes desyncing playback slightly in b2b * Fixed issues where sync starts were frequently off, especially for tracks with different original BPMs * Sync applies more aggressively to always keep the deck in sync and realign instantly, such as after pressing play or cue, scratching, beat jumping, needle searching, or jumping to a hot cue. Offsets from the beat after jogging are maintained until sync is toggled off and back on * Fixed beat jumps and other position changes (e.g. returning from slip) to be virtually instant so they don't desync tracks * Fixed loops sometimes getting stuck on the loop edge or overrunning the edge * Improved back to back stability and fixed many small multiplayer bugs for guests * Fixed the track position marker sinking through the waveform after an hour or two of playing * Fixed volume increasing significantly after turning on Echo Beat FX. * Fixed mixer mic talkover mode.

Steam users can now join our live video call workshops for free, as well as calls run by other users to hang out and share tips and tricks with other DJs. Currently starting your own Video Call is not available as it requires a Tribe Plus subscription, but we are working making this option available to Steam in the near future. See https://live.tribexr.com/ for active video calls! * Added support for playing FLAC files! (FLAC file metadata import not yet supported, but you can workaround with a Rekordbox collection import for now) * Added equipment save states. Toggle saving in the Settings > Equipment menu to autosave important controls between freeplay sessions. By default only saves "settings" controls like crossfader curves, jog weight adjustment, headphone levels, time display mode, and others. If you would like to customize your save to include other controls check with us in the help channel or the FAQ for more info. * Massive optimizations to GPU performance, allowing Tribe to run at solid framerates on lower end GPUs. * Added slip functionality to loops and hot cues (hold hot cue to play, release to return to slip position).

This fixes an input conflict that could make scrolling through the track list reset a control grabbed by the other hand. * Added Hand Offset toggle in Settings > Equipment to optionally use previous hand position (tracked from the controller root instead of matching your real hand). Useful for Vive users who find the controllers frequently clash when trying to use both hands in close proximity. * Fixed Beatport track downloads occasionally failing on first load * Fixed Beatport playlists only showing first 100 tracks (now supports any size) * Increased brightness and blink speed of DJM-900NXS2 button lights for better visibility * Fixed popping audio when scratching with master tempo enabled

0.09.5 Release Notes: New Features: * In partnership with Pioneer DJ we've created official VR replicas of the latest industry standard equipment: the CDJ 3000 and DJM-900NXS2. The Tribe classic equipment remains the default but you can unlock the new Pioneer gear for free in the Content menu. - See notes from at the bottom for a full list of new features available on the Pioneer equipment. * The following have also added to the Tribe classic equipment Tribe CDJ: - Tempo Range (+- 6/10/16/WIDE) - Top/Side jog wheel interaction for scratching/jogging respectively while in vinyl mode. Decks also now default to vinyl mode. - Time Mode button for toggling between time remaining/time played (button is left of the screen above the quantize button) - New Sync/Master behavior: If two tracks are tempo-synced, but the beats are misaligned, the sync button will start flashing, indicating the tracks are BPM synced but not beat synced. To realign the beats of the track, turn sync off and then back on again. If you pause or set the position of the master player via search, needle search, or jogwheel, then it will lose it’s Master status, and it will be automatically switched to another playing beat synced deck if there is one. Tribe Mixer: - Color and Beat FX are now applied post-fader, meaning sustaining effects such as Echo, Ping Pong, and Reverb will ring out after lowering the volume fader Sustaining Beat FX will decay naturally rather than immediately when toggling Beat FX off. - Level knob now balances the mix between the dry and the FX signals, rather than adding the FX signal to the dry signal. Leads to more consistent volume for Effects like Echo and Reverb. - At the leftmost position, the signal is 100% dry - At the rightmost position, the signal is 100% FX and 0% dry - Crush and Dub Echo Color FX are updated and improved * Added Auto Grab mode (off by default, enable in Settings > Equipment) When auto grab is enabled you no longer have to be hovering a control the moment you press the trigger. Instead the first control you overlap while holding trigger will be grabbed, making it much harder to "miss" an interaction. Also makes it easy to nudge controls slightly with low sensitivity mode on Fixes/Changes: * Reduced interaction sphere size by 20% for more precision * Increased knobs max turn amount slightly to better match texture * Double clicking the session timer in the menu bar now resets it to 0 * Control labels pop up and disappear twice as fast * Memory cues are now imported from Rekordbox collection xmls * Added SoundCloud Liked Tracks and Liked Playlists alongside your personal playlists (requires SoundCloud Go+) * Fixed SoundCloud to show up to 200 playlists (previously only showed the latest 10) * Fixed SoundCloud/Beatport cached search result folders appearing alongside playlists instead of inside "Search Results" folder * Fixed issue where pressing play while a streaming track was downloading from SoundCloud/Beatport would make it fail to open when the download finished * Fixed issue where failing to load a track file at any point would cause Tribe process to remain idle on shutdown * Fixed crash on start intermittently experienced by some users * Fixed hand positions to more accurately match your real hands * Fixed LIV not updating chroma key settings until restart Pioneer CDJ-3000 New Features * Key Sync - Adjusts the key of the sync track to a compatible key of the Master track. - The screen now also shows the current key of the track * Auto Loop Buttons - Dedicated 4 beat and 8 beat loop buttons. * Beat Jump - Jump around track forwards or backwards, by the specified number of beats - Can be set to ½, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 beats by touching the screen display * Tempo Range Adjust - Can be set to ±6, ±10, ±16, and WIDE. * Tempo Reset - When activated, resets tempo to original tempo and locks tempo changes * Jogwheel - There are now 2 grab points on the jog wheel, top and side. - Grabbing the side always operates the jog wheel in jog mode, whether the jog mode is set to Vinyl or CDJ mode. - Grabbing the top operates the jog wheel in vinyl mode if the deck mode is set to vinyl * Jogwheel Display - Now shows information about the Deck Sync State, Slip Mode, and Jog Mode * Memory Cues - Can now set up to 8 memory cues, which function as static markers in a track - Can set a memory cue with the memory button, delete with the delete button, and cycle through them with the cue/loop call buttons * Time mode button - Switch between current time and time remaining on the display by pressing the time mode button * New Sync/Master behavior - If two tracks are tempo-synced, but the beats are misaligned, the sync button will start flashing, indicating the tracks are BPM synced but not beat synced. - To realign the beats of the track, turn sync off and then back on again. * Slip Reverse - Can now activate slip reverse with the direction slider, which activates slip and then reverse the track Pioneer DJM-900NXS2 New Features * Beat FX: - New Delay, Ping Pong, Reverb, Filter, Phaser, Pitch and Slip Roll Beat Effects - New FX Frequency buttons allow you to apply effects individually to low, mid and high frequency bands - New FX Crossfader channels allow you to apply FX to all channels routed through crossfaders A or B * New Beat FX Display and XPad - Xpad allows you to quickly change the beat interval effects. You can also enable effects directly using the Xpad without pressing the toggle button * New Beat FX Tap button allows you to manually set the tempo for the Beat FX - Can switch between auto mode and tap mode with the auto/tap button * New Beat FX release behavior. - Beat FX are now applied post-fader, meaning sustaining effects such as Echo, Ping Pong, and Reverb will ring out after lowering the volume fader - Sustaining Beat FX will decay naturally rather than immediately when toggling Beat FX off. * Color FX * New Space and Sweep color effects - Space applies a reverberation effect and Sweep applies a gate and bandpass filter effect. * New Color FX Parameter lets you control an additional parameter for each color FX - Space: Controls the size/intensity of the reverb - Dub Echo: Controls the feedback of the echo - Sweep: Controls the center frequency of the bandpass filter - Noise: Controls the volume of the noise - Crush: Controls the intensity of the crush effect - Filter: Controls the resonance of the filter

Beatport tracks from search results or your Beatport playlists can also be added to your Tribe playlists for quick access later on. Beatport tracks are supported in multiplayer but other players must also be logged in with a Beatport account to hear them. Currently only supported on Windows. * Fixed track metadata not being added to the search index when using mass analysis (had to scroll to the track in the browser before it would be searchable by title/artist/bpm/etc). * Fixed analyzed bpm/key not being searchable until restarting Tribe after analysis. * Always add filenames to search index along with track title. This makes it possible to search tracks whose title has special characters but the filename doesn't (e.g. track title is in Japanese but filename is plain English). * Misc improvements/fixes to music browser and search user experience.

New Tracks from Desty Desty, who is one of our resident producers, has generously donated 5 of his dope house tracks for us to include in the release. Check them out in the Samples tab in the Track Browser. Rooms (Beta) Version 0.08.7 includes a new feature called Tribe Rooms. Rooms gives you a better way to manage multiplayer sessions. With Rooms, you can create multiplayer rooms that are open to the public or rooms that are exclusive to your friends or rooms that are invite-only. You can define the type of room by setting the preferred music genre and the maximum number of players. You can use the rooms UI to manage your invites, join and leave rooms and mute and kick other players. Caveat: Rooms is in beta so please hammer away at it and send me your feedback - the good, the bad and the ugly. Also, for back-to-back sessions, both DJs need to have local copies of tracks to hear each others’ music. New Tracks from Desty Desty, who is one of our resident producers, has generously donated 5 of his dope house tracks for us to include in the release. Check them out in the Samples tab in the Track Browser. Improved Jog Wheel Interaction Version 0.08.7 includes improved jog wheel interaction. Cueing is smoother, spinning is faster and scratching is tighter. Deck Skins Version 0.08.7 has two new Deck Skins from community members, Illuminatti and Mr Sydster. Illuminati by DJ Illuminatty are gold trimmed decks that make you want to believe! Galaxy by Mr Sydster let’s you peer deep into the starry night. It will make you want to be a better DJ! Start-up Optimizations Tribe’s start-up time is much faster. Even if you have thousands of tracks in your track list, the app loads in a snap.

Features 4 Decks We’ve added a 4 deck DLC so that you can expand your musical style and fulfill your musical potential. You can layer in acapellas, add sounds effects or anything else you can imagine. Download the 4 deck setup from the equipment section in Tribe or from the DLC section on the store. The Helixx VR Raindow Decks Celebrate the many colors under the sun with these custom Helixx VR rainbow decks. Big thanks to Helixx VR for being such an awesome member of Tribe and the VR community. Beat Sync & Master Now that we support 4 decks, we’ve updated the beat sync feature with sync and master buttons. You can use the master button to set the current track as the master. You can use the sync button to turn on or off the sync function. In the upcoming release, we’ll implement the features for automatically switching the master based on how you interact with the decks. Fixes/Improvements - Much faster load times for large track libraries - Fixed a crash when trying to save analyses for large track libraries - Other misc crash fixes

New Features Skins - Click the paintbrush icon in the main menu home bar to view the skins menu, where you can select skins for your DJ equipment and different avatars. More skins coming soon! Expressive Avatars - Added the new Oculus expressive avatars with lipsynced mouth animation and eye gaze movement. Selfie Cam - Added a selfie cam that you can use to set your own custom camera angle. Press the 5 key to activate it. Fix/Improvements Game - Made it easier to toggle headphones (increased the radius and improved position of trigger sphere). - Fixed some multiplayer interactions for clients (fixed control reset input, better tracking of knob and slider adjustments). Spectator - Fixed spectator cameras being too dark. - Removed the track browser, main menu, and blue interaction spheres from spectator cam. Visuals - Fixed some aberrations in the deck textures and meshes. - Removed leftover plant shadow from the room. Beatmatched Gifs - Beatmatched Gifs are on by default and show even if a song is not playing. - Fixed a crash from trying to beatmatch to songs that failed to analyze. Achievements - Fixed the achievement that tracks the amount of time you spend mixing. - Added a new achievement that tracks the total amount of time you stream. - Fixed an issue with the longest continuous stream achievement.

New Features: * Added a achievements menu/progress tracker to help you set goals in Tribe and keep track of your DJ and streaming progress. Integration with Steam achievements will come soon. * The track browser has a new menu accessible by clicking the "..." in the top right. From it you can: 1. Analyze all tracks within the current folder and optionally subfolders. During analysis a button will appear at the bottom of the track browser showing how many tracks are still queued to be analyzed, and you can click it to cancel analysis early. Up to 8 tracks are analyzed at a time so you will likely see a large performance drop during analysis, it's mostly intended that you start analysis and don't bother DJing while it's running (though you definitely still can if your computer is good enough). 2. View a track history, which displays all the tracks played in the current session in order. Played track are now marked green in the track browser too. 3. Export your track history to a json file. These files can be found in /TribeXR/Playlists/. The history from your last session will also be autosaved to this folder, though it is overwritten by later sessions so you'll want to manually export if you want to keep the playlists (you can also rename the autosave file after shutting down tribe if you want to keep it). 4. View playlists. For now playlists are automatically imported from all of the track history files you have in the playlists folder. In the future there will be easier ways to create playlists, but for now the only way that doesn't involve manually writing your own json file is to play all the tracks you want in the playlist and then export your history. Once you've exported a track history you can open its json file and change the name field at the top to whatever you want to have it appear with that name in the playlists view in Tribe. * Gif beatmatching. When enabled in the Twitch menu (tick the checkbox on) gifs will automatically match their loop rate to the beat grid of the current song. Fixes/Improvements: * Menu lasers no longer appear on spectator cams. * Multiplayer sessions now allow up to 16 players (up from 4). You may start seeing network issues at very high player counts, this change is intended to support users who can host with strong internet connections. * Guests now connect to the same Twitch channel as the host so anyone joining your stream can see the same chat/gifs/etc. * Increased the range of table height adjustment. * We’ve integrated support for the LIV mixed reality plugin. For guidance on how to setup and calibration, you can checkout DJ Azwell’s video tutorial here: https://youtu.be/SUudA1keetU
