20 |

- new notification events for tracking audio/MIDI device changes, |

MIDI instrument map changes and MIDI instrument changes |
22 |
|
- sampler was limited to load max. 200 instruments in the background |

due to a constant size RingBuffer FIFO which is now replaced by a |

|
dynamic (unlimited) size std::list FIFO |
25 |

- added FX sends, these allow to route audio signals to arbitrary audio |

output channels for being processed by external effect processors |

(i.e. jack-rack), the send levels are controllable via arbitrary MIDI |

- EG fine tuning: when attack is zero the EG starts at a level |
