MuLab 8.6.9 (32-bit)

What's new in this version:

New:
- New XY MIDI Controller Pad module
- New XY Parameter Pad module
- New XY Modulation Pad module
- Export Composition/Tracks As Audio File now also supports exporting to OGG files

Improved:
- The "Render Parts As New Sample" function has been streamlined so to always render the looped / selected parts.
- New "Render Parts As New Audio Part" function which is very similar to "Render Parts As New Sample" but it creates an audio part.
- MuEcho device now uses Modular Feedback Delays. (instead of a deprecated legacy echo module)
- MuVerb: The Pre-DSP module list now also includes a Rack and a MUX Modular.
- Modular Feedback Delay: Finetuned module list.
- Front panel parameters now have the option to set the displayed parameter name.
- Front panel parameters now have the option to show their name uppercase.
- Zooming in/out in the audio editor now focuses on the pure mouse cursor position. (not on the nearest zero-cross anymore).
- The Editor Navigation preference has extra options in case you prefer a vertical action.
- Chord Mapper also accepts dropped MuSequence and MIDI files.
- Spectral Stretch: New 'Post End Mode' called "Avoid" which also is the new default. This will result in more smoothly glued adjacent slices.
- Audio sequence editor: When double-clicking a sample event to open the sample editor, now the relevant section is automatically zoomed in.
- When importing a MIDI file and there only is a tempo event at the very start of it,
- then the resulting composition tempo is properly set but no tempo event is inserted in the tempo track.
- That way it's more easy to change the tempo of such imported MIDI file.
- When holding the mouse over a audio level meter, eg. in a rack, now the tooltip that shows the actual max level will not auto-hide anymore, it stays visible as long as the mouse is in the level meter area.
- You can now also drag-drop an Audio Stream from the Project Browser to a sample player display.
- MacOS: Added explicit support notification for hi-res screens. This avoids a possible blurry GUI on hi-res screens.
- MUX Plugin: In order to avoid possible conflicts with the host while scanning plugins, MUX Plugin now uses a more conservative way to show the User License Agreement.
- MUX Modular Area -> The "Rearrange Meta-Parameters" function has been replaced by drag-dropping a meta-parameter onto one of its sibling meta-parameters.
- VST Plugin Manager now also memorizes whether a VST is a 32 bit or 64 bit plugin. Upon choosing a VST in your project, only the matching VSTs are shown, so MuLab 64 bit won't show 32 bit VSTs in the popup list.
- VST Plugin Manager: "Rescan" will now rescan all selected plugins.
- Project Browser: "Where" popup list now also includes "Project Folder".
- Project browser: Improved support for creating/deleting sub-folders. (via right-click)
- Waveform displays now also accept a OGG file drop.

Fixed:
- Audio editor: When very zoomed in, the very right-side of the waveform was not drawn as expected. Fixed.
- When record count down was set to 0 beats, playback didn't immediately start anymore upon recording. Fixed.
- When a composer track sends to a module, but the module is not processed because eg. its parent rack is switched off, this could lead to general MIDI silence. Fixed.
- Step sequencer: When showing knobs for CC values, the knob was too big. Fixed.
- Depending on the audio engine settings, previewing MuClips could cause serious problems. Fixed.
- Audio sequences: Split Using Markers was not always working right. Fixed.
- Audio sequences: When playing non-stretched sample events, the audio end marker was not always taken into account. Fixed.
- Audio sequence editor: Sample events that play reversed audio where not drawn with marker lines. Fixed.
- Render To New Audio Part: The Auto Latency Compensation was not always immediately right. Fixed.
- When previewing MuClips from the browser and there was no active loop in the composition, these MuClips were not properly synced. Fixed.
- The "Shake Keys" sequence function was working correctly when applied on a selection of note events. Fixed.
- When plugging in a Spectrum Analyzer, the spectrum display showed odd data the first seconds. Fixed.
- Copy-pasting MuDrum pads and Sample Layers containing a VST plugin was not working anymore. Fixed.
- When sending audio from the composer to a module and meanwhile changing the latency could potentially cause a crash. Fixed.
- Composer: Audio sequence parts using a relative tempo different from 100% were not drawn fully right. Fixed.
- When changing the MIDI channel for the focused track, external MIDI did not immediately use the new channel, it first needed a click on the track. Fixed.
- When using per part MIDI channels, clicking such parts was not reflected when playing MIDI input. Fixed.
- MacOS: Windows were not minimizable anymore. Fixed.
- Multi-Point Envelope: When using a single point sustain loop, then On Note Off = Finish Loop was not working correctly. Fixed.
- MUX Front Panel -> Plugin Slot -> Properties -> the "Back Colors" were not properly taken into account. Fixed.
- The Step Sequencer Mod Group parameters have explicit individual names.
- Windows 32 bit version: Fixed a potential crash bug when using very big samples or applying functions on very large audio segments.
