1.4.1
2021-02-02
This update improves spatial audio support. Music will now get louder when you scale up the visualizer and softer as you scale it down.

The farther you are from the visualizer, the softer the music will be. The music will also shift between your left and right earbud depending on your orientation to the visualizer

1.1.0
2020-12-30
Thanks for a great launch! We're continuing to make Beatsy better based on your feedback. Some highlights from this update:
• Added foreground occlusion support for devices with a LiDAR sensor. This uses scene depth data to hide parts of the visualizer that appear behind real world objects. Occlusion is disabled by default but can be enabled in the lighting menu.
• Tap and hold the music icon to adjust music volume. This is useful if you want to record music while also recording from the mic.
• The 'Wave' visualizer can now push down into the surface instead of always going upwards.
• Audio playback now pauses when you open the share view.
• Various optimizations. Rotating and scaling should now be much smoother on older devices.
