There are three known regressions:

The Heffalump bug.

Incorrect panning in some places.

Failure to update UI display with MIDI patch changes.

There may be others.


However against that there is:

*Much* faster loading of voice patches, enabling them to load silently while
other tracks are playing.

MIDI bank and patch selection.

Hooks that facilitated MIDI learn.

More separation of UI from audio engine.


Possibly some of this could be pulled back into 0.060.x but my understanding
is that the core to the speed improvements were the use of the boost library
combined with moving saved banks and patches to a SQlite database format.

If at all possible I would prefer to see the corrections in 0.060.x pulled
forward rather than abandoning Cal's work.

Yes, me too. Reading your list of known regressions, I don't think they
look that serious anyway. I was more afraid of things like random
crashes or sound corruption or stuff like that, since that is usually
much harder to track down, especially if you don't know the code.

And the list of features does look very inviting! :-) I guess it would
be a shame not to give it a try!
