|---|
| 215 | * Fixed a bug with the XML description generation : float numbers (bpm, |
|---|
| 216 | pitch, volume, etc..) were written in a locale-sensitive manner, which |
|---|
| 217 | either wrote points or commas. Now always using the C locale internally. |

| 219 | transposing all tracks volumes by a given percentage |
|---|
| 220 | * New "Smoothing" feature : a sample starting over itself might produce a |
