Sorry for the inconvenience.
MSoundFactory: Backwards compatibility change: Please note that the default nonlinear smoothing now produces different smoothing behaviour and hence the template all instruments should be adjusted to have 10ms as default smoothing time for timbre and pressure.

12.12 changes
MSoundFactory: Backwards compatibility breaches:
Highly increased resonance range of ModalFilter and added gain compensation.
- Added DoubleTracker.
- Multiparameter and Modulator editors are now storing the position & size in a single settings, before these were stored for separate MPs and Mods, which has proven not ideal.
- Modulator editors now take size based on selected mode, making it smaller and readjusting when the mode changes.
- Controller selection in MIDI settings is now accessible via multiparameters.
- Additional optimizations for algorithms based on variable delay lines such as flanger, chorus, comb...

- Fix Bars on the easy screen would not update if the last one only would be modulated.
12.10 changes
MDrummer: Note: There is a small backwards compatibility breach - until now MDrummer was synchronizing multibar beats fully according to position in the DAW.
That however doesn't make much sense for multibar beats, which should always start on bar 1 after breaks.
So from now on the beats are synchronized within current bar only making everything work well with multibar beats.
- File lists are now sorted smartly and keep the order of ascending numbers.

- Fix Super-resolution analysis mode might have theoretically cause crashes (no cases have been reported though).

12.08 changes
MDrummer: Note: There's is a potential backwards compatibility breach - if you used different output channels for each drum in MDrummer1out, that wouldn't make any effect since there was just a single output.
Now MDrummer will send the drums into proper output FX pipelines, so if you used master effects, only those with output channel 1 would be processed. The solution is simply setting the output channel to 1 for all drums.

- Map now displays MIDI channel for MIDI controllers.
