SwarShala

Corrected a bug that was sometimes crashing SwarShala when playback reached the end of the composition after dragging an item into it.

Corrected a bug that was desynchronizing the beat count in Practice pane

after a certain time.

Restored reverb settings in Preferences > Playback tab.

Fixed a crash when dragging a drum loop into a track of a drum with different

strokes

Win only: Tracks set on channel 9 were not playing any sound.

Mac only: A new “AudioTrailMS” setting can be added to the resources/SwarShala.properties

file to define the nr of milliseconds to add at the end of an exported audio file.

any trailing space.
