The Audio Project Manager (APM) development team is pleased to offer the 4.3.1 release of the Audio Project Manager. This version adds an audio loudness normalization experimental feature to the Desktop app.

We noticed that logging on with Paratext and Google with the same email created different database content. This made it look like their projects were missing. With this version, when you log on with a particular email identity, we’ll show you all the teams and projects we have that use that email (so projects that were not visible to you may now be visible). If you get two projects or teams with the same name, open them to see which you might have been working with. We recommend you rename one of them so that the projects and teams have unique names.

A new sort button on the Home page opens a dialog box that lets you drag your personal or team projects into any order you want. Or you can also reset the order so that Scripture projects appear in Canonical order again, leaving non-Scripture projects in the order you dragged them. This button is available to admin users when there is more than one project.

When using Faithbridge to do research, we noticed that images and videos didn’t work as well as they should, especially on the Desktop app. These problems have been fixed now. Also if you are using the publishing to Akuo and have added notes, these will now work with Faithbridge and the reference used to look up the resources will be based on where the note is located. Notes in movements use the reference range for the movement. Notes at the beginning of a section use the reference range for the whole section. Notes which are following a passage, will use the reference range for the passage they follow.
