• Plugin state is now updated on incoming MIDI CC and Bank Select+Program Change.
• Add switch control for parameters with multiple options.
• Better value display for detune and delay time parameters.
• Merge both "Sound Effects" banks into a single bank.
• Add "Element Reserve" parameter.
• Only allow changes on 1 slider at a time.
• Serialize file version for better state loading between versions.
• Fix wrong default voice for part 10 (drums).
