- Position markers were added to the audio, MIDI, and automation editors.
- Introduced new rules for moving and copying MIDI/audio blocks that overlap with automation blocks.
- You can now multi-select blocks in the sequencer and change their settings with a single action.
- Multi-selected plugins in the insert rack now respond to actions applied to any one of them.
- The "Device Lock" dialog now redirects users to the relevant FAQ article on the SoundBridge website.
- Added a new background to block titles for improved readability.
- Track names are now visible in tooltips and the help menu when you hover over them.

- Fixed an issue where the draw tool remained active when clicking outside of SoundBridge.
- Resolved a bug where duplicating MIDI notes in the MIDI editor caused specific beats to be skipped when using 1/32, 1/64, 1/128, 1/128T, and 1/256 beat values.
- Fixed a bug that showed cut and draw tools activated at the bottom part of the sequencer when those were enabled.
