* version 2.2.0 (27-April-2024)
** SLIP mode for loops, hot cues, scratching, reverse, pause
*** loops - all loops now act as loop rolls
*** hot cue points - these act as momentary cue points (eg. only while the button/pad is being pressed)
*** scratch - after scratching is complete the track will resume as if there was no scratch
*** reverse - same as with scratch
*** pause (with turntable stop effect)
** QUANTIZE / Snap-to-beat mode for Cues, Loops, searching through the track
*** this affects: loop auto/manual mode (snap-to-beat and size quantizing), cue set quantizing, seek (while playing) quantizing
*** from compatible controllers the Quantize function can be controlled per deck or globally (all decks)
** brand-new time-stretching and pitch-shifting (courtesy of z-plane's Elastique Pro/Efficient)
** Loop rolls
** Slicer and Loop Slicer (fully quantized, including rolls)
** Pitch Play
** Markers: cue points and loops are now unified (merged) into 'markers' (that do both). Think of them as bookmarks or points of interest basically.
*** markers can have custom colors and names (right click to edit them) - these are also displayed on compatbile controllers (eg. the RANE FOUR shows both the color and the name/text of a marker)
*** right click no longer clears cue points (markers); you can still do it using the dedicated X (delete cue) button or by a long-press (a couple of seconds; this is disabled when in SLIP mode)
** PADs section with 8 pads mode selection (Markers, Loop Roll, Slicer, Slicer Loop, Sampler, Beat Jump, Pitch Play, Stems)
** instant loops (with pre-selected value)
** fully manual loops - disable quantize and manually control the start and end/size of a loop (set the in and out points without snap-to-beat or quantize)
** manual loop adjustment - when a loop is active you can adjust its left/in point, right/out point or move it left or right using the jog-wheel of a compatible controller or the user interface
***If a controller doesn't have dedicated loop adjustment buttons you can use Shift + Cue point 1,2,3 on a controller - NOTE: when NOT inside a loop this will delete the cue point being pressed (normal functionality)
***Shift + Cue 1 enables the left point (loop in) editing mode
***Shift + Cue 2 enables the right point (loop out) editing mode
***Shift + Cue 3 enables the position (moving) editing mode (eg. both left and right points (loop in + out) are moved thus moving the whole loop)
***Use jog-wheel search/move mode to adjust the loop - keep Shift pressed and move the jog-wheel to the direction needed (and the amount needed) - when NOT inside a loop this will search/move through the track itself (normal functionality)
***While it is a lot more cumbersome than using a controller, on the user interface itself you can also right-click on the loop -/+ (half/double loop) buttons to enable editing mode and then right-click on the loop </> (move loop) buttons to adjust the point
** turntable slow start/stop motor effect (0.0 - 5.0 seconds)
** fuzzy key matching / key mixing - it will achieve key sync with minimal key/pitch shifting (none, +/-1 or +/-2 semitones max)
*** this allows key mixing with just a +/- 1 (or max +/- 2) semitones key shift; see https://www.digitaldjtips.com/fuzzy-keymixing-the-new-way-to-dj/
** new controller: RANE Four
** added new Audio Routing options for Booth (output) and Record (input)
** added software send/return FX ("RoutingInFx1Send" .. "RoutingInFx4Send", "RoutingOutFx1Return" .. "RoutingOutFx4Return")
*** useful for external mixers (or controlleres with hardware DSP mixers) that allow for software processed FX (the external hardware sends us a signal to apply FX to, we process it and then we send it back)
** EQ is no longer applied for external mixer mode (so we don't double-EQ)
** cross-fading when looping or changing the current position (seek/search through the track) -- this sounds a LOT smoother
** added support for .webm video files
** added prevent the screen and system to enter sleep mode
** always-in-sync option ("Use sync-lock when possible") for SYNC button is now disabled by default (for new installs)
** removed brake feature (use turntable slow pause/stop effect instead)
** removed setting: "Use Slip mode for looping" (use true Slip mode now)
** modified setting: "Time-stretch quality" is now more granular and you choose between: Standard quality (fast), Better quality, Best quality (slow)
** new setting: "Show audio peak load instead of average CPU load"
*** This proves beneficial in diagnosing audio disruptions/overloads such as glitches, stutters, pops and clicks resulting from an excessively low latency setting, an overly high time-stretch quality setting, or simply an underperforming/slow computer.
** removed setting: "Cutoff Filter Mode" - the filter is now always set to LowPass & HighPass
** WASAPI improvements when resampling is needed (eg. the audio card is set at 48000 Hz and we need to resample from 44100 Hz)
** searching/seeking through the track is now quantized to one bar (when playing)
** Beatsource/Beatport: changed name from "Offline Locker" to "Offline Library"
** reimplemented slow pitch/tempo reset
** reimplemented pitch/tempo bend
** improved stability
** new skin actions: deck_quantize, deck_slip, deck_instant_load, deck_pad1..16, deck_pads_choose_mode, deck_loop_adjust_left, deck_loop_adjust_right, deck_loop_adjust_both
** new controller actions: deckQuantize, deckSlip, deckKeyDown, deckKeyUp, deckSyncKey, deckSyncKeyReset, setBoothVolume, setTempValue, setMic2OnAir, setMic2Volume, setMic2EqLow, setMic2EqMid, setMic2EqHigh, deckInstantLoad, deckLoopAdjustLeft, deckLoopAdjustRight, deckLoopAdjustBoth
** new get values: originalKeyName, currentKeyName, originalKeyColor, currentKeyColor, timeTotal, tempValue, loopInPos, loopOutPos, markerColor, markerName, markerType, markerPos, quantize, slip
** new notification defaultLoop (in 64ths of a beat), quantize, slip
** removed skin actions: deck_loop1..8, deck_loop1..8_clear, deck_loop1..8_label, deck_brake, deck_rev, deck_fwd, deck_loop_mode
** removed controller actions: deckLoopPoint1..8, deckRev, deckFwd, deckBrake, deckLoopMode
** removed notifications: looppos1..8, brake, loopMode
<br/>
* version 2.1.13 (30-November-2023)
** post-fader effects (the effects are applied after the signal passes the Volume faders and  the Cross-fader) - this is very useful/nice sounding for effects such as Echo or Reverb (eg. apply Echo and then set the Volume to 0 or move the cross-fader to the other side);
*** Important Note: if this is enabled (which is now the default) you can only hear the effects in the Master (speakers) output since the Monitor (headphones) output is PFL (pre-fader listening) so before the effects are applied; EQ and Gain are always processed pre-fader;
** new setting: "Apply effects post-fader (instead of pre-fader)"
** soft take-over for controller knobs/sliders (with visual feedback - transparent/ghost cursor)
** high-resolution 14-bit MIDI support (doesn't apply to old controllers)
** multiple fixes for Pioneer DDJ-1000SRT
** optimization improvements and bug-fixes
** BREAKING CHANGE: if you have your own/edited scripts: we have added a new parameter (timestamp) to: function messageReceived(uniqueId,status,channel,data1,data2,timestamp)
** new skin actions (2 buttons): deck_instrumental, deck_vocal
** new controller/script actions: deckInstr, deckVocal, deckSetStem1..4, setDeckJogWheelParams, scratchDeckJWWithTimestamp, moveDeckJWWithTimestamp
** new controller/script notifications: stemInstr, stemVocal, pitch, motorOn
** new controller/script getValues: stem1..4

    • Windows, Mac: changed latency setting to power-of-two sizes (64, 128, …, 4096) which corresponds to (1.45 ms, 2,9 ms, …, 92.9 ms).
    • Please note that on Windows you can only control the latency for ASIO, WASAPI latency is controlled by the OS itself (usually about 22 ms) and cannot be adjusted (fixed).
    • Mac: fixed audio inputs / microphone bad quality because of resampling bug;
    • Mac: fixed unnecessary audio output resampling (very slight audio quality improvement)
    • Windows: fixed pre-selecting default audio device at the 1st run
    • Windows: we will discontinue the 32-bit releases and do only 64-bit releases from now on, so make sure your Windows install is 64-bit
