- Add information to the manual about real time bouncing (eg when using hardware instruments and effects)
- If the audio engine has an error writing an audio file while recording show this to the user as a notification
- You can now choose between onsets and a fixed rate for stretch modes transient preservation
- ControlSurfaceAPI: add color setting
- Hold mode for the random modulator
- APC40 MKII: record toggles clip overdub and session toggles clip automation recording
