Velo v1.8.4

Velo v1.8.4 🎹

This one's all about making Velo lighter, faster and smoother — especially on weaker PCs — without changing a thing about how it works. Plus a few fixes you asked for.

⚡ Lighter & faster
Velo now does far less work behind the scenes: idle animations pause when there's nothing to show, it uses noticeably less memory (the mini-player and Select Music windows load only when you open them), songs start playing quicker, and there's less strain on your CPU and GPU while you play. Same Velo — just easier on your machine.

🖼️ Every wallpaper works now
Some backgrounds (heavier images) used to show up blank. Not anymore — Velo automatically optimizes any photo you pick so it always renders, whatever the format or size.

📌 Mini-player & Select Music remember their spot
Drag the floating pill (or the Select Music window) wherever you like and it stays there — even after you close and reopen Velo. They also open near the top now instead of tucked in a corner.

🐛 Fixes

• The "note-trail preview" in Short Notes settings no longer starts blank.

Velo v1.8.3 🎹

Velo v1.8.3 — Sound packs, instant preview & a cleaner UI

A big comfort update — Velo is easier on the eyes and can finally sound like your keyboard.

⌨️ 10 keyboard sound models (up from 1)
Nine new mechanical & typewriter packs added — Topre, Holy Pandas, Cream, Turquoise Tealios, MX travels and more. Find the one that feels right.

▶️ Preview button
A play button right next to the Keyboard Model — hear any pack instantly instead of guessing.

🔎 Searchable dropdowns everywhere
Every picker in Velo (music, keyboard, background, mode…) is now a clean, searchable list. Just start typing.

⚙️ Settings, reorganized
The Settings tab is now four tidy sub-tabs — Appearance · Playing · Controls · About — with a smooth sliding accent. Everything's where you'd expect it.

🐧 Linux support
The floating pill and the Select Music window now work on Linux too.

Velo v1.8 is out 🎉

The mini-player just got a lot more powerful.

🎵 Select Music

A new floating window to pick any queued song — draggable, resizable, with search, favorites, shuffle & loop.

🎛️ Richer mini-player

Note-density seek bar, an "Up next" line, and a reactive EQ.

🎹 Smarter Stage

The falling notes now match your Play Style (Faithful / Balanced / Easy).

Fixes: instant song-switching (no more double-play) + a Practice-mode key fix.

Velo v1.7.2 — updater cleanup 🧹

Tiny fix 🧹 — the auto-updater was leaving a temp folder behind in %TEMP% after each update. Now it cleans up after itself.

Already on v1.7 / v1.7.1? Hit Update & restart in the banner and Velo installs it. 🔄

Velo v1.7 — Custom backgrounds + auto-update

Two big ones this update 🎨

🖼️ Custom backgrounds — Settings → Appearance → Background. Your own photo (darken/blur/fit) or a gradient preset (Aurora, Mesh, Sunset, Rosé…), plus gradient glow, vignette, film grain and a slow animated drift. Lower Panel opacity to turn the cards to glass.

🔄 One-click auto-update — when a new version drops, just hit Update & restart in the banner. Velo downloads it, swaps itself out and reopens on the new version — no more manual download-and-extract. (First automatic update kicks in from v1.7 onward.)
