>
> Engine fixes: Filters and oscillator bandlimiting are now properly
> tuned (taking into account filter oversampling) and work as
> documented. Calculations for lookup tables are more accurate. The
> envelope curve has been improved and sounds a lot more natural.
> Additional bugfixes are found in the ALSA MIDI startup and JACK
> shutdown code.

> Engine optimizations: A few simple optimizations have been worked
> out, with an average of about 30% CPU cycle reduction per voice, and
> about 30MB of memory overall. For custom builds, the engine can
> easily be fine-tuned in phasex.h, and the --enable-arch= configure
> option supports all x86 CPU types supported by gcc-4.1.2.
>
> Improved patch bank: The entire bank is preloaded into memory.
> There is now support for patches in alternate directories. The
> memory modes have been reworked (and finally documented in the
> runtime help system). Multiple patches from a directory may now be
> loaded into the patch bank at once.
>
> GUI updates: Special thanks goes out to Pete Shorthose for providing
> the initial backing store code and some pearls of GTK wisdom to make
> window redrawing and tab switching faster and smoother. For those
> of you who haven't done so already, now would be a good time to
> enable backing store in your X server.
>
> Knob and control updates: Scroll wheel support has been added to
> the knobs and alternate controls. Middle-click centering of knobs
> is more responsive. The cumbersome combobox lists have been changed
> to detent knobs with clickable value labels.
>
> Parameter locking: Parameters can now be locked down to their
> current values, effectively blocking out program changes, patch
> loads, and MIDI controller messages on a per-parameter basis.
>
> New settings: The base A4 tuning frequency and backing store can
> now be set in the preferences dialog.
