MGS Audio 1.2.2, a Much Lighter Toolbox & Polished Skins

A new version of the MGS Audio desktop app is available (1.2.2). It updates itself at launch: if no prompt shows up, simply restart the app once to apply the update (or grab it again from the download page). The catalogue filters now stay visible even when a selection empties the other lists, downloads recover better from a slow connection, and connecting a device is safer.

The whole toolbox went through a full refactor under the hood, with a strong focus on the number of requests: some tables asked the server for every row separately — two requests per line, so hundreds of calls on a large simulation — and could run into the server's rate limit. Those screens now load in a couple of requests whatever their size. Everything feels much lighter.

The skins have been improved again, and the web player got some love: tracks now chain automatically, the volume no longer resets between tracks, and the album module download works. Sessions also stay open while you are active instead of expiring on the clock.

The Hub's screenshots have been refreshed for every app — click one to see it full-size.
