Notion 6.6 Release Notes

Notion 6.6 Maintenance Release

Notion 6.6 is now available. It's a minor maintenance update that adds compatibility with multi-core Windows machines and fulfils the upcoming security requirements of Apple's Catalina operating system. Handwriting, MusicXML and MIDI import enhancements that were made for the recent Notion iOS 2.5 update have been inherited too, plus there's some good news for 5-string banjo players
