Orfeo 1.7.2

Orfeo 1.7.2 — Songs end with the music, close buttons that work

9. 11. 2026

• A song no longer runs on in silence for minutes after its last note.
• Close buttons on popups over the top bar work wherever you click them.
• Clearer install notes for Linux, and Orfeo's license as the standard text.

Download: Installer (recommended, updates itself) · Portable (no install) · Microsoft Store (updates through the Store, usually within a few days)
Mac and Linux: choose your file under Assets below. These files can join this page a little after the Windows ones. They don't update themselves: a dot on the update button tells you when a new version is out.
Already installed on Windows? Orfeo updates itself the next time it starts. Found a problem? Report a bug.

Full changelog: 3 changed, 2 fixed

Changed

• Orfeo's license is the standard GPL text, word for word, and the Licenses window shows
  it exactly as written. The extra permission for the animation library Orfeo uses now sits
  at the top of the list of other people's code that comes with Orfeo.
• Linux install notes now say that the AppImage needs the FUSE 2 library, with the
  command to install it.
• Building Orfeo yourself: npm run dev fetches what it needs on a fresh copy.

Fixed

• No more minutes of silence after a song ends. A few MIDI files hold a single drum hit far
  past the music (a lost release, left from when the file was made), so the song kept running
  in silence long after its last note. A drum hit now counts only for as long as it can sound,
  so the song ends with the music, with a few seconds to spare for a last cymbal to ring out.
• Close buttons work wherever a window sits. On Windows and Linux, a popup over the top
  bar (Settings on a smaller screen, or any window dragged up) only answered clicks in a few
  spots, so its close button often seemed dead. Every popup, menu and dialog now takes clicks
  everywhere, and the top bar still moves the window when nothing covers it.
