Good list of fixes. Glad to see it!

Wow, that is a lot of fixes in a really short time!

update has fixed stability for me significantly. I've had issues opening oxford inflator in the past and its working butter smooth now. Loop browser is still slow on first clicking it but besides that its smooth now too.

My only gripe with the update is the vocal fx plugin - it shows how much you need the browser to be updated. I can't tag it into multiple different categories in my browser (I can with my macro page launching technique that i use mostly over browser anyways). But theres 6 or so fx types in this plugin? give us more control over the browser at this point.

I personally feel good about fender acquiring s1 as they have fixed things I've had issues with for years (v7 fixed mac os qwerty keyboard moving a parameter with mouse while playing hang notes bug since v2 for example)

Probably (my guess) because a number of them were already stacked up ready for release, but held back from launch version for increased testing. They must have felt the v8.0.0 release was 'stable' enough ahead of all the NAMM noise and presentations etc...

Still, don't get me wrong, its good to see...

I found a couple of others, and none of these. The release was a bit rushed for NAMM no doubt, but nice to know they're hard at work.
