32.0Appendix B: Release Notes

Occasional problem which caused 100% CPU usage after killing JACK has been fixed.

Stopped GTK shutdown from causing a crash in some cases.

Clocks no longer cease updating when reverse playback is used.

Keyboard event forwarding now works better for plug-in windows.

A benign problem that caused an error at startup: "the object for a history XML node can't be found" has been fixed.

Disallow de-activation of master and mixbus DSP. This fixes a howling feedback sound when the master bus is made inactive.

When you split a stereo region into mono, they will now show up together in the region list.

Menu item "Sync editor & mixer order" now works

Fix GUI glitch when switching editor's mixer strip from stereo to mono channels

IMPROVEMENTS

Mono audio files loaded into a stereo track will now play back on both channels.

Reinstate the ALL group for editing.

Rationalize track and range selection modes so they follow more established conventions.

Automation correctly drops back to playback value when touch ends.

Write mode should not pick up the underlying automation settings during a locate.

When editing automation, make sure the edits never affect the sound outside of the edit range.

You can now choose the "merge files" option when importing 2 same-length audio files, and they will import to a stereo track.

Add a shortcut to /Volumes in the Open Session dialog. This makes it easier to find sessions on a removable drive.

Add a switch to turn OFF internationalization (for users that want OSX in their language, but Mixbus in English)

Use the term 'Markers' instead of 'Marks', more consistently.

Correctly use broadcast wave file timestamps when importing.

Switch many instances of "Ardour" to "Mixbus" such as MIDI ports, etc.

Dialog now makes clear that when you delete a track, the session will be saved.

Apple plug-ins are no longer separated into more categories than other plug-ins.

Reinstate some MISC options that were lost:

Link Region and Track Selection

Name New Markers

Rubberband select snaps to grid

Auto-analyze new audio

Dragging a region to exactly time "zero" was fiddly, this has been made easier.

It is no longer possible to delete a mixbus or the master bus.

Default JACK ports to 512 instead of 128.

Remove "JACK does monitoring" option which has no effect on OSX.

KNOWN ISSUES

Sessions opened in 1.3, then re-opened in 1.2 may display the Mix buses in the wrong order. Sound will be correct, though.

Some users have reported problems with 1.3 using UAD plug-ins. We have tested at the factory on a G5+UAD1 PCI system, as well as an Intel UAD2 Solo system, and it works for us.

The solo-ing error on the Mix buses (where soloing a mixbus still allows any 'direct' assignments to the master bus to be heard) is still present in 1.3

Some users report that fader automation starting at time "0" will cause playback to fail.

Mixbus v1.2 (6707)

FEATURES

Show all tracks with regions under playhead:

Right-click the Track/Bus side panel, and you'll find a new option to show all tracks with regions. Any track with a region under the playhead will be unhidden. Tracks without regions under the playhead will be hid-
