We added a new slash command, /provocals, which can show you how many Jam Tracks have fully charted "PRO VOCALS" MIDI Tracks.

We switched APIs from NiteStats to Epic's, for a quicker and faster experience.

We have also added support for Vox on all /graph cmds.! (not lifts)

Notes per lane. No difficulties on Pro Vocals, so it won't matter which one you pick. Each bar shows which pitches how many times you will sing that pitch. Ranging from C1 to C5.

The notes per second. Please note that this isn't words per minute.

The bars for note counts. Again, there are no difficulties.
