#Improvements
Now when importing audio, holding the [CTRL] key will Insert Audio as Raw
Various improvements to audio import behavior:
Better tempo estimation for audio loops based on loose numbers in filenames
Can now read tempo/beat-length information from ACID chunks of WAV files
Can now read tempo/beat-length information embedded by Logic Pro into WAV files
New combination Zoom In Vertically and Zoom Out Vertically functions are now available:
These work both in the Arranger Timeline Panel (for tracks/automation lanes) and the Detail Editor Panel (for notes in the piano-style view, or when using layered editing)
Default shortcuts are [SHIFT]+[CTRL]+[+] ([SHIFT]+[CMD]+[+] on Mac) to zoom in, and [SHIFT]+[CTRL]+[-] ([SHIFT]+[CMD]+[-] on Mac) to zoom out
Zoom In and Zoom Out functions have been renamed Zoom In Horizontally and Zoom Out Horizontally:
To cover all horizontal cases, these functions also work to change track widths in the Mixer Panel
Default shortcuts are the same as before: [CTRL]+[+] ([CMD]+[+] on Mac) to zoom in, and [CTRL]+[-] ([CMD]+[-] on Mac) to zoom out
Menu functions are now grouped into the following submenus:
Content Scaling submenu - contains Scale…, Scale 50%, Scale 200%, Scale 50%…, and Scale 200%… (when available)
Quantize submenu - contains Quantize, Quantize…, Quantize Audio, and Quantize Audio… (when available)
Transpose submenu - contains Transpose a Semitone Up, Transpose a Semitone Down, Transpose an Octave Up, and Transpose an Octave Down (when available)
Slice / Fold submenu - contains Slice In Place…, Slice to Drum Machine…, Slice to Sampler…, and Fold to Takes… (when available)
Tempo submenu - contains Detect Event Tempo…, Set Event Tempo…, Apply Tempo Curve to Arranger, and Set Project Tempo (when available)
Device Defaults submenu - contains Load Default Preset and Save as Default Preset, when a device is selected
These submenus are used both in normal window menus and in context menu (on right-click of objects)
Waveforms are now displayed with higher precision [36283]
Generic controller now supports polyphonic aftertouch [36336]
VST3: Implemented the IPlugInterfaceSupport interface
