New Features:

• VST Effects - you can now export VST effects.
• Presets - using the Preset Manager and Preset Parameter components you can now add preset handling to your VSTs.
• Busses - on some occasions you want to be able to combine many links into just one. The new Bus Create and Bus Extract components allow you to do exactly that.
• New GUI Controls - Edit and Popup List controls added for you to use on your module front panels.
• Enhanced Graphics Performance - sliders and controls are much more responsive now. Editing in general should be much faster thanks to some significant performance enhancements to the graphics engine.
• Timing Components - the new Timing Info and Sample Position components allow you to use tempo and timing information from a host when you run your exported VST plug-in.
• Direct Sound - there's a new dedicated Direct Sound component which is much more reliable and flexible than the previous XLeft and XRight components.
• Clipping - drawing is now clipped to the module front panel.
• Automatic GUI Linking - high-level GUI modules can be made to appear on a parent module's front panel automatically without having to create physical links. This allows you to get instant result and makes your schematics much easier to read.
• Wave Table calculations are much quicker now.
