Changes for effects:

• Added MCharmVerb free plugin (reverb based on the MTurboReverb's "R" algorithm), including a module to MXXX.
• Adding attribute Cache="0" to GUI section of the custom device GUI in MXXX would disable the internal caching, which is handy for development.
• Added preset & copy/paste features to arpeggiator preset matrix useful to copy banks for example.
• Exporting IR from MFreeformEqualizer and MCabinet now includes the gain adjustment and the output is always 24-bit for better compatibility with hardware the IRs may be used in.
• Added "Normalize loudness" switch to MConvolutionEZ.
• Added Swapper2out module to MXXX.
• Added "Fine control" switch to multiparameters.
• XY pad editor mode for multiparameters now provides 4 different size and follows parameter origins automatically.
• Metronome added to MXXX.
• Stereo scopes now provide a normalization switch.
• Added device "Custom GUI" flag to MXXX.
• Random device button also loads a random device preset now in MXXX.
• File lists now provide multiple columns if the size allows it.
• Minor GUI and performance improvements.
• Fix: Custom device GUI for MXXX could crash if an image for a slider hasn't been found.
• Fix: Multiparameters in cyclic banks mode could not display the name of the first bank at the end.
• Fix: Channel mode buttons weren't available for modules in MXXX.
• Fix: Uninstaller could delete itself even if it has been cancelled.
• Fix: MXXX custom device GUIs could get clipped or resized.
• Fix: MXXX devices may have not been selected properly in the categorizer when switching between A-H presets in different folders.

Changes for MSoundFactory:

• Backwards compatibility breach: Timbre and Pitchbend transformations have been redesigned. These now go from 0% to 100% and if the controller is bipolar (default), the same curve is applied to both positive side and negative side (inverted). We are sorry for the inconvenience if you used these features.
• Added CharmVerb (reverb based on the MTurboReverb's "R" algorithm) module, both as FX and per-voice FX.
• Added several new instruments.
• Per-voice modulation source selection now highlights the used sources and indicates the number of uses of each.
• Sampler now imports metadata from WAV files, including loop range, root/min/max key, min/max velocity...
• Improved "Convert to looped" feature in Sampler module and added "Spectrum freeze" feature to it.
• "Sample cutter" now stores current ranges in case it would be used in the future, and follows arrows keys to jump between samples.
• Adding attribute Cache="0" to GUI section of the custom device GUI would disable the internal caching, which is handy for development.
• Added preset & copy/paste features to arpeggiator preset matrix useful to copy banks for example.
• Added "Normalize loudness" switch to ConvolutionEZ.
• Improved the timbre and pitchbend transformation system.
• Unbypassing a generator module while holding several notes no longer starts these notes. A module that is bypassed at the moment a voice is created will be bypassed for the rest of the voice.
• Added Swapper2out module.
• Added "Fine control" switch to multiparameters.
• XY pad editor mode for multiparameters now provides 4 different size and follows parameter origins automatically.
• Added Metronome FX.
• Stereo scopes now provide a normalization switch.
• Added device "Custom GUI" flag.
• Random device button also loads a random device preset now.
• File lists now provide multiple columns if the size allows it.
• Minor GUI and performance improvements.
• Fix: "Select on load" could cause glitches in audio.
• Fix: Custom device GUI could crash if an image for a slider hasn't been found.
• Fix: Ctrl + mouse wheel in Sampler region editor did zoom, but not update the view.
• Fix: Multiparameters in cyclic banks mode could not display the name of the first bank at the end.
• Fix: Voice indicators could get stuck in the global envelope view.
• Fix: Channel mode buttons weren't available for FX modules.
• Fix: Uninstaller could delete itself even if it has been cancelled.
• Fix: Custom device GUIs could get clipped or resized.
• Fix: Devices may have not been selected properly in the categorizer when switching between A-H presets in different folders.
