• Enhanced copy, cut and paste of multiple tracks.
• Edit/Insert command now can shift existing markers and rhythm changes.
• Fixed problems when using the program as a non-Administrator Windows user. The program installation still needs to be performed by Administrator.
• Fixed editing ReWire channels names.
• New algorithm for Pitch Shift plug-in.

• Fixed program freezing when dragging the time slider on the toolbar below 00:00:00.
• New way of measuring CPU time. The popup menu that appears right clicking on the program's lower status bar allows to switch between the old ('Process') and the new ('Fractional') methods. The new method is more accurate, the playback should work until the cpu indicator reaches 100% (with the old method of measuring cpu time drop-outs usually started to appear with the cpu indicator below 100%). The new method should make it easier to realize when the song is getting too complex for the cpu to handle and you need to freeze or apply effects destructively.
