Ardour updated to v2.0.5

7th August 2007

Ardour has been updated to v2.05.

Changes since 2.0.4:

Code builds on OS X and older Linux systems (side-effect: reduced memory utilization by automation data).
Font sizes parametized (to allow easier maintenance of themes) on OSX & Linux.
Crash revealed by GTK+ 2.11 (unstable new version of GTK) fixed.

Changes since 2.0.3:

Protect ardour from sessions with errant capture sources stored in the (pending) session state. This was a major bug that has affected many people over the last several releases. It is now fixed.
Add Theme Manager, including new "light" theme.
Add delta-cursor option from trunk (allows clock to display the gap between the edit+playback cursors).
Massively increase automation resolution.
Support for 16 bit native file format.
Stop audio clocks from vanishing when turned off.
Plugin selection dialog now has filtering by name, type, author and more.
Permit GUI user-driven add/remove of MIDI ports.
Fix for radio grouping of subframes menu options.
Fix crossfade editor-induced crashing.
Safeguard against false disk underruns when punching in.
Correctly save user-modified keybindings to ~/.ardour2/ardour.bindings.
Fixes for building against GTK-OSX (Ardour now builds and runs on OS X without X11 - this is a source code feature, the DMG for OSX will still use X11 for now).
Lots and lots of work to the Mackie Control surface support (many small changes and incremental improvements).
