minor prefs improvements
added "disable DX plugins scanning" option
reaverb: lp/hp filter item (good for making synthetic reverbs with the echo generator)
reaverb: normalize item
reasynth and reasamplomatic: support pitch wheel messages
(GM?) CC labels for midi editor
shrunk whatsnew.txt (old text is available online)
midi editor loads icons from main EXE
midi editor ffwd/rewind buttons
option to save project and/or open properties immediately on new project
better master vu clip indictator (no point in showing RMS clip when peak clip is available)
basic CC/pitch editing in midi editor. so tired.
fixed potential sysex memory leak in midi reader
sends can now specify midi source/destinations, as well as disable audio (midi only)
I/O dialog: fixed track receives refresh on channel count change
huge improvements to snapping system to snap to the closest item
flush track buffers on recarm switch even if not recording (better routed record sync)
made project length updated when using region copying/etc
fixed floating point .wav format
fixed vu metering of record-output modes
vst: better dealing with plug-ins whose latency decreases
pdc now deals with bypass envelopes (more) correctly
better support for decreases in plug-in latency, I hope?
cleanups to audio configuration system
MUCH nicer color theme editor
more preferences dialogs improvements
audio system wont open when audio/device tab is open
adding an effect (via d&d or otherwise) to a track that lacks fx wont open the fx browser
preferences wont let you see the audio/device tab when recording
moved snap settings from prefs to snap dialog
made navigator/mixer/fxadd/midi editor windows doubleclick maximize
added mousewheel option for window under mouse vs window with focus
better record preview display for loop/autopunch rec modes (shows where items are actually recorded)
updated version checking code to better support 1.0preX and 1.0 beta X etc.
added new license agreement, license tab to about box
wav/aiff reader: support for 20, 32 bit integer samples
revamped FX plugins configuration screen
fixed record automatic file switching sync (error introduced in v0.971)
fixed routing latent fx related record sync issue
fixed record sync when punch-in recording a track via its record arm button
cleaned up cursors/region resizing for timeline
better support for 1/128 grid settings etc
renamed "tape style" record modes to be just "normal"..
external editors: primary/secondary editors for each type, and default. context menu shows editor names, too.
reasamplomatic: improved note-offs (more accurate timing, and a note off ends all of that note)
reasamplomatic: attack/release controls
more drag&drop fixes
clicking and dragging a region lets you reorder the project (hold alt to move the region relative to the project, and hold ctrl to copy)
added option (prefs/recording) for adding new recordings per-loop when looped recording (good for "record channel output" overdubbing for both MIDI and audio)
reduced size of send controls for I/O dialog
registration key stuff. a nag screen on unregistered shareware will only be displayed once a week, and it's easily dismissable.

fixed midi looping note repeat bug
fixed time map rebuilding on certain ripple editing functions
fixed routed track that sends to next track crash on delete play
