Some VST plugins would cause an access violation while processing audio.
Some VST plugins would crash immediately on loading the plugin.
Resizing VST plugin window didn't work properly if plugin UI had very small height initially.
Monitoring the 'Internal' sidechain input on a VST plugin could result in silence. Also applies to AU plugins on Mac.

MultitrackStudio v 8.1
19 juin 2015
Windows
New:
Support for Microsoft Surface Pro 3: new 'Pen with touch scrolling' mode. This mode works with pen exclusively, so you can't tap something accidentally with the hand palm. You can still scroll editors and lists with touch. A button is available for switching between pen and touch mode quickly.
Windows: Added '200 %' and '240 %' values to Size box in Preferences window, so the UI can be scaled large enough on high-DPI screens like the Surface Pro's. Also added 'Auto (VST, ugly)' option which makes the program not dpi-aware so Windows scales the UI (including VST plugins) in a blurry way.
Touchscreen (Windows): semi-transparent 'Rewind' / 'To last start' hints appear on touching the transport counter box.
Touchscreen (Windows): Time stretching in track editors.
Touchscreen (Windows): Onscreen MIDI keyboard can be zoomed horizontally using two fingers on the bar at the top.

MIDI editors: tweaked graphics to make it easier to see which mode the editor is in.
Fixed:
Issue with sending volume controllers (#7) to External MIDI Instruments.
Mac: SoundFont Player ignored note-offs with certain soundfonts. You'll have to re-import these soundfonts.
Mac: SoundFont Player ignored pitch bend range setting.
Matrix Sampler's Volume knob settings weren't stored and recalled correctly.
Pitch bend range messages are no longer being sent to Garritan 'CFX Concert Grand' VSTi (it conflicts with the plugin's stretch tuning controller #100).
Touchscreen (Windows): playing legato on the Chords onscreen keyboard was difficult.
Various other improvements and fixes.

MultitrackStudio v 7.2
4 oct. 2012
Windows
1. Windows 8 tablet support
Touchscreen support, which was introduced three years ago, has been improved and modernized. The user interface can now scale down to a smaller size if screen estate is limited, so MultitrackStudio can run comfortably on the new 10-inch Windows 8 tablets several manufacturers have announced.
2. Improved large screen / multi monitor support
In order to utilize all the space provided by a large monitor there can now optionally be multiple columns of mixer sections. There's a "Multi Column Rack" setting in the Preferences window.
This new feature can be used for multi-monitor setups as well. In this case track width is automatically adjusted to fit a monitor. Multi monitor support has been improved by making sure secondary windows don't appear "on the fold". On Windows full screen mode now fills all monitors which where covered by the main window.
3. Gapless cycling
The transport can now cycle "gapless", there's no longer a small piece of silence when it jumps back.
Several changes have been made to leverage the improved cycling:
Cycling transport can be started by performing a click-and-drag operation on the overview bar thumb:
Click the thumb
Immediately click the thumb again, but this time keep the mouse button down.
Now move the thumb to the point where you want the cycle to end.
Release the mouse button.
Note that this click-and-drag action is a variation on a doubleclick, which starts the transport without cycling.
Click-and-drag works on the editor needle thumbs as well, so you can quickly cycle the part you're interested in.
Automation editors (Pro Plus edition), Automated Fader effect and Vocal Tuner key editor can now be used while the transport is running.
Transport position indicator and overview bar now show bars automatically if there are any MIDI tracks (can be switched off in Preferences window). When you start cycling using the overview bar it snaps to bars automatically, so it's easy to cycle a couple of bars.
4. Lyrics prompter
If any chords or lyrics are available a Lyr button appears near the bottom right corner of the main window. Clicking this button shows the new lyrics prompter. The lyrics prompter scrolls automatically if the transport is running, so it can be used to read the lyrics/chords while recording. Clicking a bar will move the transport position to this bar. Doubleclicking a bar will pop up the chords or lyrics editor and select that bar. The font size depends on the size of the lyrics prompter panel: if you make the panel taller the font will get taller as well.
5. Other
Score editor supports transposing instruments (Bb clarinets etc.).
"Ultra Dark" color theme. On Windows the Light theme is replaced with a new High Contrast theme.
"To Song" control surface action, intended for playing backing tracks during live shows.
"Start Playback" and "Start Recording" control surface actions.
"Full Screen" button in bottom right corner (not on Mac OS X 10.7 or newer).
Improved VST/AU plugin compatibility (Melodyne).
Various user interface improvements (redesigned transport counter and group selectors etc.).
BPM tappers are now embedded in windows like Add Click Track, so you don't have to click the Tap button first.
A Control Surface can now have up to 64 channels (was 8).
Narrow vertical strips next to the mixer sections are removed, this makes the vertical scrollbar easier to use.
The Clip Shelf can now be made visible using the Studio menu.
Editor and transport units (bars or seconds) are now stored in song files.
Removed "Large Meters" setting from Preferences window. Meters now become large automatically if there's room for them.
EQ effect: 1/3 octave and critical bands spectra now show vertical bars rather than lines.
(Windows) VST plugin causing exception error will automatically run bridged next time.

Windows
Fixed:
Resource leak which could cause crash after running MultitrackStudio for a long time.
Some minor issues.
MultitrackStudio v 7.1
10 mars 2012
Windows
1. Vocal Tuner
The new Vocal Tuner effect corrects out-of-tune vocals. It features two programs: Natural, which corrects pitch in a very unobtrusive manner, and Modern, which sounds a bit synthetic and robot-like.
The key editor shows both the input pitch (dimmed color) and the output pitch (bright color). Pitch is quantized to the closest key. Using the key editor you can turn keys off for certain parts. If a key is off pitch is quantized to the closest key which is on.
2. VariSpeed improvements
VariSpeed appears in the Pro Plus edition
The VariSpeed controls have been redesigned. VariSpeed can be now adjusted while transport is running (but not while recording).
There's a new "Speed Only" VariSpeed mode which changes speed 50..150% without changing pitch. This can be used for practicing etc. "Speed Only" mode doesn't work while recording.
3. Sidechaining improvements
Sidechaining appears in the Pro Plus edition
Effects in Group/Effect Return/Master sections can use tracks and group busses as sidechain source.
Track sidechains can now be stereo.
VSTi/AUi with multiple outputs: Up to 30 outputs can now be sidechain source (was 15).
4. Redesigned "Mix down to audio file" window

5. Other
New:
Transposer effect.
Automatic effect delay compensation.

1. 64-bit version
A 64-bit version is now available. The 64-bit version can utilize all the computer's memory, which is important if you use many large sample-based VSTi plugins. From now on new releases will appear as both 32 and 64 bit versions.
Some things worth noting:
Works with 64-bit Windows 7 / Vista.
32 and 64-bit versions can be installed side by side.
Supports 32 and 64-bit VST/VSTi plugins. 32-bit MultitrackStudio supports 64-bit plugins as well if you're on 64-bit Windows.
The default VST folder is still "C:\Program Files (x86)\MtStudio\VSTplugins\".
After changing the VST folder in the Preferences window you'll be asked for permission to run "MtStudio.exe" as Administrator. That's to update the default VST folder in the registry, so plugin installers can find it. Unlike 32-bit programs, 64-bit programs aren't allowed to do that without administrator rights.
Does not support DX/DXi plugins.
Expects lame_enc64.dll MP3 encoder (as opposed to lame_enc.dll for 32-bit version).
Until now imported sampler patches were stored in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\MtStudio\Patches\" folder by default. 64-bit programs are not allowed to write to that folder, so this had to change. It now uses "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\MtStudio\Sampler Patches" by default for new installs.
If MultitrackStudio was installed on your computer already and you plan on importing sampler patches you should:
Create a folder with a more convenient name, like "C:\MTS Sampler Patches".
Pick this folder in the Studio menu's Preferences window.
Copy the contents of "C:\Program Files (x86)\MtStudio\Patches\" to the new folder. You can skip this step if you never imported any sampler patches.
2. Master Limiter shows RMS level
The Master Limiter now features an RMS output level meter, which makes it easier to mix all your songs to the same level.
3. Faster pitch shifting / time stretching
The latest version of the Dirac Pro pitch shifting / time stretching technology is used, which is twice as fast as the previous version.
4. Other
Pianoroll: more vertical zoom levels.
The "Insert" button is now called "Ripple".
Easier error reporting: "Send Now" sends the report over the internet without requiring an email program like Outlook.
