Cockos has updated REAPER to version 4.25.
Changes:
- JS:
- better support for UTF-8 filenames.
- fixed bug where increasing track channels during playback with PDC-JS could cause dropouts.
- fixed loop() behavior with negative counts on x86-64.
- fixed some unuseful order of operation behaviors relating to certain operators.
- import file support for code usability (use .jsfx-inc, these files will not be shown in the FX browser).
- for .jsfx-inc files, just use @init with functions plus any global initialization needed.
- import can also be used to import other FX and provide the ability to override individual code sections.
- improved code generation, most JS FX should now run substantially faster.
- improved handling of doubleclicks in @gfx.
- improved sizing behavior on OS X.
- improvements to JSFX IDE/editor.
- sent/received MIDI messages are now forced to be sorted by time.
- support for new language constructs (functions, object-namespaces, xor operations, etc).
- Tempo envelope:
- action/dialog to adjust entire tempo map to a target tempo.
- default project timebase is now beats (existing projects are not affected).
- disallowed freehand drawing for the master tempo envelope.
- disallowed moving one tempo/time signature marker past another.
- easier marquee/selection of master tempo envelope points.
- editing multiple points at once applies the change proportionally (not +/- constant BPM).
- markers are always pinned to beat position rather than time.
- per-marker setting for allowing a partial measure prior to the marker.
- playback position obeys project timebase (time or beats) when user edits project tempo during playback.
- saner manual editing of tempo changes when "gradually transition tempo" is enabled.
- visual BPM range of envelope can be configured.
- visual display of time signature change points is different from tempo change points.
- Time signatures:
- manual editing requires them to be placed at the start of a measure.
- automatically correct time signatures when adding/removing partial measures from the project.
- time signature changes that truncate the previous measure are displayed in the ruler with an asterisk.
- with snap disabled, moving time signature markers will optionally modify the preceding tempo.
- with snap enabled, time signature changes snap to bars, tempo changes snap to grid.
- WALTER:
- support for knob bitmap stacks.
- theme layout lines can end in backslash to extend statement to next line.
- transport status better supports layout images.
- user-defined font support, other improvements.
- Actions:
- added action to insert ReaEQ on a track, get/set ReaEQ parameters.
- fixed action to insert time and paste items.
- added actions to toggle playback and record preroll.
- API:
- added CreateNewMIDIItemInProject function.
- added function to insert tempo/time signature changes.
- AU:
- fix for Waves loading crashes.
- support for plug-ins that receive MIDI sysex.
- External editors:
- dedicated action for opening associated projects in REAPER.
- improved external editor display/running logic, associated project references are fallbacks rather than prioritized.
- OSC:
- support for older client implementations when handling messages with no arguments.
- support for track EQ parameters and feedback.
- Region/Marker Manager:
- edit marker/region numbers, start, end, length in place in the list view.
- support for importing/exporting csv file, exporting txt description.
- Regions:
- actions to go to another region after the current region finishes playing (smooth seek).
- fixed action to delete region near cursor.
- Take lanes:
- action to collapse empty take lanes.
- do not create unnecessary extra take lanes when punching in.
- Colortheme: tweaks to default theme.
- Crossfades: fixed unwanted creation of crossfade when editing the other edge of a media item.
- DDP support: improvements (MD5, CD-TEXT support, UTF-8/ASCII conversion).
- Envelopes: fixed persistence of preference to reset automation mode after writing automation.
- EULA: amended to make it clear that developing and selling plug-ins and extensions is allowed.
- Faster REAPER shutdown process (can also reduce crashes on exit on OS X).
- Freeze: fixed support for freeze in undo states (broken since 4.20).
- FX envelopes: store special flag for wet/bypass envelopes in case plug-in parameter counts change.
- FX learn: support for toggle mode (toggle an FX parameter on/off with a single mapping).
- LTC generator: support for 23.976fps (though this is non-standard).
- MIDI: optimizations to MIDI item processing when using large blocks with lots of tempo changes.
- MIDI editor: zoom behavior fixes in certain instances.
- MIDI loop recording: MIDI recording within a time selection optionally creates a selection-length media item.
- MIDI note properties: accepts manual note input (not just using the dropdown).
- Navigator: do not show tempo changes (only time signature markers are displayed).
- OS X: fixed a menu related bug for older OS X versions.
- Playback seek: settings moved to new Preferences/Audio/Seeking page.
- Preferences: split Envelopes page into separate Envelope Display and Automation Behavior pages.
- Scrolling: option for continuous scrolling during playback.
- Toolbars: improved double-width toolbar button image scaling.
- WINE: fixed support for non-conforming CallWindowProcW (still calls ASCII combobox wndproc when passed, unlike Win7/XP).
