• Keyboard window position and Arpeggiator data stored in documents.
• Improved Leopard (OS X version 10.5) compatibility.

Fixed:

• Dragging files to Metro while a modal dialog was active could have caused some problems.
• The new feature of default outputs implemented in 6.4.1.1 caused several problems. When a track insert MIDI plug-in was assigned it may have been difficult to add a synth to a new track. Pasting was not correctly assigning outputs in certain cases.
• It was possible that the graphic editor track selection popup would default to a track that did not exist.
• If no MIDI devices are selected on startup a MIDI Setup dialog is displayed. This now occurs later in the startup cycle.
• A possible crash relating to offline plug-in processing has been corrected.
• The position and order of windows are restored correctly upon document load.
• A problem whereby weird things could occur when trying to automate a aux pan knob.
• Inserting time into a frozen track was not working correctly.
• A crash was occurring trying to parse some audio files when a QuickTime version less than 7.0 was installed.
• Rhythm Explorer was not generating data using the selected time signature in some cases.
• Importing an audio file with no other tracks, now correctly sets the tempo.
• updated remote control preset for Tranzport. This allows shift-rotary knob to control the jukebox volume when jukebox is active.
• Expanding loops no longer duplicates special bank and program events. This could cause hiccups during playback to some devices.
• A crash could have occurred if notes were pending to be sent to a Virtual Instrument during document open.
• Miscellaneous bug fixes and other enhancements.
