Improves performance when using multiple instances of EXS24 in 32-bit mode with EXS24 Virtual Memory mode active.

General

Fixes an issue in which copying a MIDI region in a project which does not start at 1 1 1 1, and in which the Transposition track is active, might result in unexpected transposition of the copied region.
The Controls View of plug-in GUIs now fits properly on the 11-inch MacBook Air display.

Channel strip level meters no longer sometimes momentarily stop responding when the playhead is moved to a new position during playback.
Loading a Kontakt 4/5 factory preset in 64-bit mode no longer causes Logic to quit unexpectedly.

Fixes an issue in which record repeat would delete the wrong take.

Plug-ins and Instruments

Dropping multiple samples on the EXS editor keyboard and choosing the Contiguous Zones option now correctly results in a chromatic mapping of the samples.
Using the + key to step through EXS instruments no longer causes Logic to sometimes quit unexpectedly.

Ultrabeat now properly maintains the set pitch of a previously loaded sample after browsing for a new sample and then canceling.

Changes made to a project using a control surface now reliably activate the control surface Save button.
The Undo LED on Logic Control now correctly lights to show the availability of undo steps.
Setting parameter assignments on Control Surfaces to fixed values other than 1 now works correctly in 64-bit mode.

Playback now reliably starts from the beginning of the project after using the "Return to Zero" button in the Transport window, no matter what Play setting is active.
With Catch Clock Position active and Cycle enabled, Logic now centers the cycle area if it fits within the current view.
Fixes an issue in which the visible area in the Arrange window would sometimes jump a few pixels to the left after scrolling to the right on OS X 10.7 Lion.
