New in Radium 6.9.97 (Apr 15, 2022)

Linux: Removed libglib-2.0.so from the Linux
binaries since it sometimes caused 3rd party
plugins to fail loading. (Caused by conflicting
libraries)
Linux: Update included system library files.
GUI: Fix making Shift + Right mouse button reset
mute and solo in the sequencer.
Plugin scanner: Fix displaying error messages on
Linux and Windows.
JUCE: Update JUCE to 6.1.4. This might fix various
issues with VST3 on Linux and other things.
Plugins: Fix crash when selecting the "Set ..."
option in the effect popup menus.
GUI: Lots of high DPI fixes. The whole program
should look descent on high DPI screens now.
Audio preferences window: Support high DPI
screens. (Probably not working on macOS though...)
Plugins: Support high DPI screens for the GUI for
plugins. (Probably not working on macOS though...)
Keyboard: Workaround to fix space and return keys
not always working (especially on newer and faster
computers).
Startup: Fix custom python code added in the
keybinding configuration file sometimes not working
(especially on newer and faster computer).
Demo songs: Fix sweeping filter automation in the
main demo song.
GUI: Lots of mouse handling improvements.
GUI: Make the "ZL1" key (i.e. the key one step to
the left of "Z" on a QWERTY keyboard) behave the
same way as pressing Shift + Right mouse button.
GUI: Make the mouse "Back button" (for mice having
this button) behave the same way as pressing Shift
+ Right mouse button.
Menus: If a function has more than one shortcut,
display the shortest of those shortcuts in popup
menus.
GUI: Improve various popup menus.
Instruments: Don't create a new undo entry when
resetting an effect and the effect already had the
default value.
Linux: Fix scheme listener not always starting
unless running on Ubuntu 18.
Preferences/Audio: Add option to not use JACK even
when JACK is running.
Audio: Fix possible problems when initializing JUCE
audio.
Playlist: Don't show error message if pressing the
delete key in an empty playlist.
Editor: Make it possible to assign keybindings to
the "New Sample Player" and "New MIDI Instrument"
options in track header menu.
LADSPA/Windows: Another attempt at preventing
windows from scanning the included ladspa plugins
during startup. It doesn't seem to always work
though. The built-in virus scanner in Windows seems
to be extremely aggressive. The LADSPA files are
never opened or read during initialization.
Demo song: Fix low pass filter automation.
Editor: In the pianoroll header, fix "A" button not
always behaving quite correctly.
Audio: New song properties option for muting output
of the 5 system buses when a plugin is bypassed. By
default this option is ON for new songs and OFF for
old songs (to keep kompatibility).
Manual: Add recipe to the Mixer FAQ on how to
create a sidechain compressor.
Manual: Add how to set volume higher than 6db in
the mixer FAQ.
Editor: In the "(click me)" menu, display currently
used audio instruments before currently used MIDI
instruments.
Edit: Also expand/shrink end pitch value when
expanding/shrinking pitch.
Edit: Fix expand/shrink pitch. Last release wrongly
assumed end pitch always had a legal value.
Plugin Info box: Inform when a mono LADSPA plugin
has been automatically transformed into a stereo
plugin.

New in Radium 6.9.94 (Aug 6, 2021)

Instruments: Reorganize the "Insert new sound object" / "New audio instrument" menu.
Playlist: Give keyboard focus to the sequencer instead of the editor when the mouse is inside the playlist.
Sequencer: Minimize sequencer height when maximizing window or showing full-screen.
GUI: Try to fix sequencer sometimes not being fully minimized right after startup.
Windows: Partially fix importing MIDI files, i.e. smaller files are imported perfectly now. However, larger MIDI files seem to only be partially imported on Windows. The problem does not seem to be present on Linux and macOS.
GUI: When showing sequencer, make sure the mixer is visible first if the sequencer is inside the mixer.
GUI: Fix keyboard focus when showing sequencer.
GUI: Don't show mixer at program startup.
MIDI: Give more information when warning about possibly creating a recursive connection when connecting an instrument to a MIDI output port.
Before it could look like the program was stuck in an infinite loop when importing MIDI files.
Sequencer: Clean up popup menus a little bit.
Mixer strips: Clean up popup menus a little bit.
Sequencer: Make sure first seqtrack is the current seqtrack after loading an older song. Before this commit, a hidden seqtrack bus was set as the
current seqtrack.
Modular mixer: Let the "C2" button apply to all buses, not just the 5 effect buses.
Instrument effect popup menu: Replace the "keybindings for.." sub menu with entries that actually changes the value. This value can instead be right-clicked to change keybinding. Redundant functionality though, but it looks cleaner.
Modular mixer: Include "mixer" elements in a "mixer" sub menu for the popup menu.
Modular mixer: Snap connections to modules when being created.
Modular mixer: Put connection lines on top of all other graphical elements when being created.
Modular mixer: Fix hovered connection color (it was hardcoded to a bluish color).
Mixer: Make event connections red. (The old color looked too much like the audio connection color, and yellow (used before that again) looks too much
like white which is used to show a current event going through the connection.)
Modular mixer: Fix possible division by zero sometimes happening when using middle button to drag.
Manual: Document the FX/Velocity subtrack.
Manual: Some minor improvements here and there.
Help: Open help windows in external browser if the built-in browser is not able to show the manual (i.e. compiled against a too old version of qtwebkit).
Modular mixer: Redesign GUI of the modules:
Don't overlap volume sliders with the mute/solo/bypass buttons.
Switch back to displaying simple peaks.
Use the instrument color for the background color of the M/S/B buttons.
Use black background color for the volume sliders.
Write dB value inside the volume sliders.
Swap upper and bottom half of the modules. I.e. paint text and note indicator above slider and buttons.
Less rounded and a little bit thinner borders.
Limit the volume sliders between -40dB and +6dB. Before, it was between -40dB and +35dB, which is usually a too big range.
Make non-linear scaling between effect value and slider positions, similarly to the mapping in the mixer strips. (i.e. we have approximately equal room between -6dB and 6dB and between -35dB and -6dB now).
Adjust audio port colors.
Light up elements below the mouse pointer.
Don't draw audio input/output ports when they're not used, not visible, or doesn't exist.
Alternatively move module by left-dragging the name instead of using the right-button.
When right-clicking the volume slider, mute, solo, or bypass, show the instrument effect popup menu instead of the module popup menu.
API:
Renamed: instrumentIsSeqtrackBus -> instrumentIsBus

New in Radium 6.9.86 (Jul 19, 2021)

Audio: Try not to open any audio input device by default. Sometimes this screws up the output sound.
Audio: Try to use a default buffer size of 1024 when initializing the audio device. Earlier the audio device was sometimes initialized with an incompatible block size.
Sequencer: Fix inserting several audio files at once when selecting "Insert audio file(s)" from the popup menu. For a few releases now, inserting several audio files inserted the new audio files into the wrong sequencer tracks.
Sequencer: Also set seqtrack-under-mouse when changing current seqtrack.
Sequencer: Fix moving several seqblocks at once when there are hidden seqtracks.
Sequencer: Light up seqtrack names, both in seqtrack headers and in the "Tracks" tab, when mouse is above.
Sequencer: Light up the editable path name field in the "Files" tab when mouse is above.
Sequencer: Light up seqtrack currently under mouse.
Sequencer: Fix keybindings not always working on current seqtrack pointed to by the mouse.
Sequencer: Paint orange border around current seqblock in the sequencer navigators.
Sequencer: Fix possible weird behavior when moving more than one seqblock and one or more of those seqblocks were deleted because they were moved to a seqtrack of the wrong type.
GUI: Make all sliders in the editor/mixer/sequencer to light up when mouse is above the slider.
Mixer: Make the volume text and peak text light up when mouse is above.
Editor: Convert various node assertions to fire in debug builds only.
Editor: Fix moving cursor left when the cursor is positioned on the leftmost centtext subtrack and the swing subtrack is visible.
Editor: Fix transposing selected notes in the pianoroll when using left meta + u/d.
Editor: Improve logic for whether to show the centtext subtrack or not.
Editor: Convert pitches to TimeData.
Editor: Fix transpose velocity.
Build: Fix compiling for LLVM12 (Teteros)
Editor: Let the window that shows the no-range-or-selection error show buttons to open the manual instead of explaining directly how to edit range and selection.
Editor: Make sure editor graphics is updated when pressing left alt + return.
API: setCurrSeqtrackUnderMouse

New in Radium 6.9.82 (Jul 1, 2021)

New in Radium 6.9.80 (Jun 25, 2021)

Windows/Editor: Another workaround to fix garbled fonts sometimes happening in the editor right after startup.
Editor: Changed the behavior when pressing DEL on a veltext entry so that it behaves the same way as when deleting a velocity node with the mouse.
Manual: Minor updates.
Sequencer: Make it optional in preferences whether changing current seqtrack also changes current editor block. Also disable this option by
default, before it was enabled.
Sequencer: Add option in preferences whether mouse wheel up/down starts/stops playing or scrolls up/down seqtracks.
Sequencer: New option in preferences to select whether to autoselect the seqtrack which is currently below the mouse pointer. In addition,
turn this option OFF by default (before this behavior was ON).
Mixer: Change the "Connected to main pipe" option in the popup menus to "Connected to main bus".
Preferences/colors: Add slider to adjust the amount of gradient colors of various filled rectangles.
GUI: Various tweaks to color shading.
Preferences/colors: Fix setting correct default values for the saturation and brightness sliders when pressing "Reset".
Sequencer: New option in preferences to select whether to autoselect block currently under the mouse pointer. In addition, turn this option OFF by
default (before this behavior was ON).
Load: Add workaround for loading songs saved with Radium older than 6.9.76. Before that there was a bug that caused no volume change to be played if
there were only two velocity nodes for a note and the last node had value 0 (i.e. plain decrescendo where not played).
GUI: Made the green audio peak color greener.
Mixer: Paint a handler for the volume sliders to better see current value.
Colors: Adjusted check box colors a little bit.
Modulator: Fix division by zero if min and max is equal. (This caused illegal floating points to wander around in the system).
Audio: Assert that the value is a legal floating point when setting plugin parameters.
Editor: Convert note velocities to the new data structure:
The most notable change is that any editing is heard immediately if playing block or song at the same time.
Using less CPU cache. CPU usage might be notably lower after notes themselves have been converted to the new data structure.
Coincidentally fixed a bug that caused no volume change to be heard if there were only two velocity nodes for a note and the last node had value 0 (i.e. plain decrescendos were not played). Also add a workaround for this bug so that loading old songs still sound the same.
Necessary for future work such as replacing OpenGL with Vulkan.
Editor: Don't delete note when deleting the last velocity node and there are pitch changes unless there are only two velocity nodes.
Loading: Fix showing correct line numbers when loading song fails.
Internal: Various improvements to the RT memory allocator.
API:
New: autoselectEditorBlockUnderMouse, setAutoselectEditorBlockUnderMouse,
getAmountOfGradient, setAmountOfGradient, autoselectSeqtrackUnderMouse,
setAutoselectSeqtrackUnderMouse, autoselectEditorBlockWhenChangingSeqtrack, setAutoselectEditorBlockWhenChangingSeqtrack, sequencerMouseScrollWheelStartsStopsPlaying, setSequencerMouseScrollWheelStartsStopsPlaying.
* Change last argument (gradient) for gui_filledBox from boolean to int, and add 13 different types of gradients to choose from.

Linux: Patch the included WebKit library so that it doesn't load browser plugins. Visiting the
Wikipedia LFO page (linked to in the manual) could make Radium crash if user had installed a buggy plugin, or a plugin linking to Qt.
Sequencer: When pressing Space while playing, just stop playing, and don't move cursor back. When pressing Space while NOT playing, first move cursor back to last place we started playing from, and then start playing.
GUI: Remove the text "CPU:" from the bottom bar.
GUI: In the bottom bar, make the status bar and the volume slider always have the same width.
Editor: When edit is OFF, and we are playing notes on the computer keyboard, send the notes to the current instrument and not to the instrument for the current track.
Instruments: For older songs (approx. a year), fix note duplicator values being set to default values if undoing Reset or Random. Also fixes A/B usage and possibly other things. These are more fixes for the old note duplicator Chance bug which unfortunately caused old songs to have wrong values in them.
Init: Make sure custom initialization code (in keybindings.conf) doesn't run until program has started up. Program could crash during startup because of this.
Playlist: Fix wrong content showing up when a different seqtrack was selected while playlist was hidden.
Playlist: Fix selecting prev and next playlist block when playlist isn't visible.
Instruments: Immediately remove "[m]" from instrument slider/checkbox text after removing a modulator from the effect.
Preferences: Add sliders to control brightness and saturation for blocks/audiofiles colors and instrument colors.
Instrument: Fix rare crash that could happen when creating new instrument.

New in Radium 5.9.46 (Mar 15, 2019)

Windows/VST: Add a "DPI" checkbox to the VST plugin header when DPI is not 96, i.e. when either the display is scaled, or a hiDPI monitor is used. When unchecking the DPI checkbox, the plugin GUI will be reopened with a DPI of 96 instead. This will both let Windows do the scaling (causing blury and larger graphics), and in some cases fix bugs caused by plugins not handling a non-standard DPI. You need Windows 10 for this to work.
OpenGL: Remove startup warning that Radium hasn't supported high DPI display for a very long time. It's been a pretty long time now.
Error message window: Position in the middle of the screen.
Progress window: Add a minimize button in the upper right corner.
Mixer: Don't update graphics for the modular mixer when it's not visible.
Mixer strips: Fix note intencity circle only lighting up/down when the main mixer was visible.
GUI: Turn off menu and combobox animation. Screwed up menus on osx when using Qt 5.12. (Think the menu animation actually brought back the same bug that caused me to upgrade Qt from 5.7 to 5.10.)
Mixer: Fix error message sometimes popping up when showing popup menu.
JUCE patch for Linux: Display ALSA MIDI client names as clientName + ": " + portName to avoid mixup for ports with the same port name belonging to different clients.
JUCE patch for Linux: Make sure all ALSA MIDI connections and ALSA MIDI ports are publicly shown (for instance in the qjackctl patchbay). Not showing them only creates confusion.
JUCE patch for Linux: Set realtime priority for the MIDI input thread.
Build: Update Juce from 5.3.2 to 5.4.3.
Linux: Don't read from configuration file when opening a native VST gui. (Race condition that could have caused various trouble.)
Init: Fix 1-10 seconds freeze that sometimes happened during program startup.
Windows/Sequencer: Fix displaying non-ascii characters in the audio file browser.
OSX: Fix file requester not filtering out entries when loading/saving mod/midi/xm/rad.
OSX: Radium requires 10.12 or newer.
Editor: When appending new block, let it have the same number of tracks and lines as the current block. (Same behavior as insert block.)
Instruments: Include the pan and width effects in the wet signal by default. This can be changed in the song properties window. When loading older songs, pan and width is not included in the wet signal, since that could change the sound.
Instruments: Disable the dry/wet slider when instrument is bypassed.
API: New functions: setIncludePanAndDryInWetSignal, includePanAndDryInWetSignal, appendBase64Strings. Add optional argument "text_is_base64" to gui_drawText

Sequencer: Fix graphics rendering between the timing/marker lanes and the opmost visible seqtrack.
MIDI instrument: Fix error message popping up when mouse is above a CC slider or above a note duplicator on/off button.
Instrument widget: Fix wrong fonts in the note duplicator, for the instrument name input widget, and for the sample browser path.
Sampler instrument: Fix modulators when loading songs saved before 5.9.41. Note that songs saved with 5.9.41 (and only that version) will require
some editing if modulators had been assigned to effects in the sample player in that version of the program. (5.9.41 is marked as unstable now.)
Instruments: Fix assertion window popping up when selecting "add automation to current editor track" and there was already an automation node for that
effect at the current editor position.
Instruments: Don't show assertion window when making states for the Faust Dev and Pd instruments.
Sample instrument: Delete GUI when instrument is deleted.
OSX: Show a different startup warning when running
macOS 10.14. Radium has been tested on 10.14 now, but not much, and it sometimes crashes during startup.
fix for prev. commit
Sample player: Fix high CPU usage when the GUI is open.
Audio meters: Ensure meters are really updated every frame. Earlier we updated every 20ms, which is more than the common 16.6ms update period.
Audio meters: Changed the "CPU friendly" option in preferences to update every 3rd frame instead of every 2.4th frame. Probably looks better with a
consistent refresh rate. Sampler instrument: Set default grain overlap value
to 3.0 instead of 1.0.
Sampler instrument: Allocate granulator instances from a common pool shared by all sampler instruments. This should both lower memory usage
and CPU usage.
Sampler instrument: Added a "fine stretch" slider in addition to the old "coarse stretc" slider. The coarse stretch slider went from -100 to 100 which
was a bit hard to control. Sampler instrument: Added a "gran. volume" slider
for doing volume compensation so that the level can be set to approximately the same when enabling/disabling granulation. Note that the default value is set to -6dB, so you need to manually set this value to 0.0dB after loading
songs saved with Radium 5.9.41.
Sampler instrument: Don't stretch waveform data in editor when granulation is disabled.
Sampler instrument: Display stretch values between 0.0 and 1.0 as "1.0/xxx" instead of "0.xx".
Sampler instrument: Change scaling method when stretch is below 1.0. Now stretch spans with linear numerator values in the range 100/100 to
1/100 instead of ranging linearly from 1.0 to 0.01. Note that stretch automation will sound different for values below 1.0 for songs saved with
Radium 5.9.41.
Startup: Don't draw OpenGL until program is finished initializing. Fixes program sometimes freezing for a few seconds after startup.
Startup: Show mixer strip for current instrument before swapping opengl for the first time.
OSX/crashreporter: Only wait 5 seconds for the OSX diagnostic report file to be created.
Progress window: Optimize performance.
Build: Upgrade libatomic_ops from 7.4.12 to 7.4.14
Build: Update BDWGC to 7.4.16. Contains an
important fix for Windows if running 32 bit Radium in a 64 bit operating system.

duplicator voice on/off. Fix for undo/redo and
memory corruption. The bug was probably introduced
during the last year.
Sampler instrument: Added granulation.
Visualization is displayed in the GUI window.
Instruments: Save "Random" state by effect name and
not by effect number. Prevents wrong values if
loading an instrument that has changed the number
of effects, or the effect order, since last time.
Plugins: Show assertion window if saving effect
value to hash table with an already used key.
Editor: Let a bottom slider value of 0 mean that
the height is set automatically. (In "GFX tweaks")

small unnecessary border.
Editor: Reorganized widgets. This might possibly
have made graphics faster.

entry texts shorter.
Sequencer: GUI tweaks.
OSX: Fix closing the progress window if Radium
crashes.
Jack: Fix checking if jack is running during startup
not always reporting correctly.
OSX/Windows: Fix let Left Alt start navigating
the main menus. (Probably also a fix for some
Linuxes as well.)
GUI: Workaround to avoid bottom bar updating
graphics unnecessarily often.
GUI: Remove the Qt bottom bar and replace it
with a custom bottom bar which looks sligthly
better.
Preferences: Make help text for "tab bar height"
clearer.
Audio meters: Fix bug causing all note diode areas
to be repainted every frame.
Editor: Enable by default the "Multiply number of
lines to scroll by the "Edit Lines" value" option.
Mixer: Only show tooltip for sliders if there
wasn't enough space to fit all text.
OpenGL: Wait to swap OpenGL until program is
finished initializing. Might fix semi-rare macOS
startup crash. Possibly looks better too.
Init: Run a test program during startup to detect

popup menu.
VST/AU: When using more than 30 seconds to search for plugin files, don't
ask to stop searching in all paths, just stop searching in the current

VST/AU:
Always store individual effect values in undo, file, and a/b.
Fixes some misbehaving plugins (not sure whether the plugins are
required to store the effect values in the state, but I would think so).
VST:
Add "C:/Program Files/VstPlugins", "C:/Program Files (x86)/VSTPlugins",
"C:/Program Files/Common Files/VST3", and
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/VST3" to the default VST paths.
Sequencer:
Add "Add automation to current editor track", "Add automation
to current sequencer track", and add/remove modulator entries to the
header popup menus.

Sequencer:
If audio file couldn't be found when loading, ask user where
it is.
MIDI:
Change the "Error. Unable to open MIDI output device ..." error
message to "Error. Unable to open MIDI input device ...".
MIDI:
Add a "Yes (don"t ask again)" option when connecting to an output
port with the same name as a connected input port, plus make the warning
message cleearer.
VST/AU:
Show at least two a/b buttons, or none if there isn't room.
VST/AU:
Slightly faster to open and close GUIs.

Use ALSA client name + ": " + ALSA port name as juce port name, not just the ALSA port name.
Run ALSA MIDI input thread with lowest realtime priority. Necessary to get accurate timing.
Always subscribe to ALSA MIDI ports. I.e. always make connected port names public.
MIDI:
Fix realtime display of notes when recording MIDI, when the MIDI device sends 0x90 instead of 0x80 for note off.

New in Radium 5.6.9 (May 28, 2018)

Windows:
Read delta mouse movement directly from the hardware
(WM_INPUT). Fixes situations where it's not possible to set the
mouse position from software. In addition, it's better for finetuning
since we circumvent acceleration applied by the operating system.
Mouse: Slightly change mouse pointer position when the pointer is
getting close to any of the edges. This makes it possible to e.g.
continue moving a seqblock even if there is no more screen space for
the mouse pointer to move.
Sequencer: Fix error message popping up when trying to delete song
tempo node while mouse is not currently above a node.
Sequencer: Automatically set current seqtrack when adding new
seqblock.
Sequencer: Only show audio files in the file requesters to load
audio files.
Sequencer: Don't change current seqtrack when deleting seqblock.
Sequencer: Swap which end of the seqblock is changed when selecting
"Reset stretch". The old behavior might have had some advantages, but
it felt counterintuitive.
Playlist: Don't start playing song when clicking on an audio file
name in the playlist.
Sequencer: Don't stop playing if playing block (not song) when setting
new cursor position.
Playlist: Remove rare memory corruption bug that could happen when
clicking the up/down arrows in the playlist to swap audio files.
Sequencer: Move seqblocks a little bit smoother.
Fix minor memory leak in blocklist and playlist.
For audio file seqtracks, display audio file names in the blocklist
instead of blocks.
Sequencer: Let first seqtrack have the name "Main seqtrack" in
new songs.
Sequencer: Differenciate between audio file seqtrack and block
seqtrack. An audio file can not be placed in a block seqtrack and
vice versa. Later (not implemented yet), this makes it possible to
implement seqtrack volume and solo/mute work for blocks without
making too much interface confusion.
Sequencer: Faster graphics when moving single seqblock.
Sequencer: Fix update of mouse pointer shape in the seqtrack headers.
Sequencer: Fix setting current seqtrack when clicking on the vertical
audio meter.
Sequencer: Numerate seqtrack headers.
Sequencer: Add "Display bars and beats" checkbox to the popup menus.
API:
Rename selectSeqtrack to setCurrSeqtrack.
Add a "for_audiofiles" argument to appendSeqtrack and
insertSeqtrack.
New functions: seqtrackForAudiofiles, setSeqtrackName,
getSeqtrackName, getAudiofilePostfixes, addAudiofile,
moveAbsMousePointer, getDeltaMouseX, getDeltaMouseY,
hasDeltaMouse, canMovePointer, getGlobalMousePointerX,
getGlobalMousePointerY, getAbsMousePointerX, getAbsMousePointerY,
getScreenWidth, getScreenHeight.

Changes 5.5.7 -> 5.5.8
Sequencer Add undo when changing interior start or end values.
Sequencer Fix loading/undoing/redoing an audio file sequencer block which has non-default interior start or end values and no stretch.
Menus Add "Report bug" entry to the Help menu.
Sequencer Make sure navigator bar is tall enough to show all information when there are many seqtracks.
Sequencer Don't show error message when trying to set an interior start value of an audio sample before the start of a song.
Sequencer Fix various issues when deleting a seqtrack with audio files.
Sequencer Fix so that it doesn't become impossible to move the right sequencer navigator handle if it had been moved as far left as possible. Before, the only way out of this situations was to zoom out using the mouse wheel.
Peak files Read peak files in a separate thread. Reading peak files of very long samples can take a little bit of time. This was especially notable when loading song.
Peak files DO re-generate peak file after failing to read it, and DON'T re-generate peak file after successfully reading it. (Program did the opposite.)
Sequencer Don't show error message happening when zooming out a lot and trying to move left stretch value before song start.
Sequencer Show correct number of audio meter channels for the Seqtrack instruments after loading song.
Sequencer Fix selection rectangle when editor is not visible.
Sequencer Fix Audio file split using the S key when editor is not visible.
Sample player Update current directory of browser when an audio file has been drag-dropped.
Editor Let RIGHT_ALT+U and RIGHT_ALT+D transpose all notes in a chord if the cursor is placed in the note subtrack, not just the first note of the chord.
Editor Let RIGHT_ALT+LEFT and RIGHT_ALT+RIGHT change velocity of all notes in a chord if the cursor is placed in the note subtrack, not just the first note of the chord.
Editor Let RIGHT_ALT+U and RIGHT_ALT+D transpose ranged notes if cursor is placed inside a range, similar to RIGHT_ALT+LEFT and RIGHT_ALT+RIGHT for changing velocity.
Editor When using polyphonic tracks and the cursor is placed in a velocity subtrack (and not in the note subtrack), the function to transpose single notes (RIGHT_ALT+U/D), and the function to change velocity (RIGHT_ALT+LEFT/RIGHT), will operate on the note in the current velocity subtrack and not the note in the first velocity subtrack.
Sequencer Always hide grid graphics when releasing mouse button.
Sequencer Remove the text "shape" from the fade shape popup menus.
Mixer Fix audio meter graphic update. (Some dirty graphics could sometimes be seen in 5.5.6 and 5.5.7.)
