Improvements
Sampler: When in Cycles mode, root key setting (plus fine tuning amount) is visualized on the waveform when zoomed in
Sampler: uses less memory
Some improvements to the startup time of the application
Changed default "Channel to" setting in track inspector to 1, recording notes to channel 1 by default
Fixes
MPE expressions now work more reliably for VST plug-ins
Browser Panel no longer slow when unfolding system disk tree file hierarchy on macOS
Layout issue in the Dashboard help section on displays with a large height
Crash sometimes when using a controller with remote controls and moving between devices
Always treat the enter key on the number pad the same as the normal enter key so it works everywhere where the normal enter key works for shortcuts
Sampler: Zone-logic (Always play / Round-robin) wasn't stored in MULTISAMPLE files
Sampler: dragging a sample file from the used list of samples inside a multisample did not work
Sampler: "Browse Samples" was not possible when the Sampler window is in detached mode
Sampler: Distribute Key / Velocity / Select Equally functions could not be mapped to keyboard shortcuts
Channel Filter device: would sometimes crash when receiving system MIDI messages (like active sensing) from a plug-in
Instrument Selector device: an empty device was creating around 50ms of latency
Note Echo device: could generate invalid channel number
MIDI CC device: could send an incorrect CC 127
Keytrack modulator default values in absolute mode were not giving a straight line
Engine crash when cutting or copying a scene in some cases
Use global time signature for newly created clips on arranger when arranger does not have any time signature automation
When creating a new project and we close the previous project activate the audio engine on the new project if it was activated on the one we closed
Some PNG files could crash the application on Windows if there were errors downloading them (e.g in the dashboard help)
Panning or zooming with middle mouse button would put focus into the viewport being panned which it shoudn't
Only try to focus a Bitwig Studio main window if the user explicitly closes a plugin window by clicking on the close button in the window title
Crash when searching in the browser using the dir keyword and a quoted argument containing non-word characters (e.g. dir:"dir to search for")
Quneo script would crash when receiving some MIDI CC messages
DeviceBank.scrollTo set the scroll position instead of scrolling the position into view like the comment says it should
Random engine crashes when using some controllers scripts
Rare crash when closing a project sometimes
Regression Fixes
Sampler: The fade-out that happens at sample-stop to prevent clicks didn't work for large block-sizes
Rare crash when consolidating audio clips
Some wav files that could be read in 2.3.5 could not be read in 2.4 (e.g., when metadata had been edited in NI Maschine)
Crash when dragging launcher clip from grouped track to arranger in some cases
Dragging or inserting expression events on raw audio would sometimes leave the expression events in the wrong order.
Keytracking for filters was slightly off since 2.4
Under some conditions, audio clips could get into an alternating silence state after the arrangement loop jumped
Action "start audio event here" on beat markers might set an incorrect start time
