Improvements and feature changes

- 8.1.6b2 adds support for The Bridge beta, which is being maintained by Serato. Details are here: http://serato.com/thebridge


Bugfixes

- Fixed a crash that could occur after undoing the pasting of an Instrument into an empty MIDI track. The crash could happen in other ways too, but that's the easiest to describe.

- In some cases Live could crash when loading a document that overcomes limitation (like a Live set containing Operator on a computer where Operator is not unlocked).

- Fixed a crash caused by a rounding error, causing some memory corruption

- It was previously not possible to map a track group slot when the group track was unfolded, because the selection spreads over the whole local scene. Now the selection changes upon entering map mode, or when existing it, allowing to map the slot, and restoring the correct selection when done.

- Fixed a crash that happened when moving a Max for Live device containing a "getpath" object to another track.

- Live could hang changing clip parameters while jumping in the song while recording.

- On some systems, Live is able to create Live packs that exceed 2 Gb, but could not read them. This is fixed by upgrading our packing Libraries.

- Fixed a crash that happened in rare cases (revealed by using The Bridge, but it is not directly related to it) when trying to insert a first warp marker in an audio recording.

- Fixed a crash happening when some MIDI targets where not available anymore but called. For example, it happened when having 2 MIDI clip selected in Session view, in a track containing at least a device, and then flattening the track.

- Fixed a crash happening when rebuilding the set from the Undo history, related to 3rd devices.

Serato related fixes

- Fixed Serato not displaying our set data (set name, tempo etc..) after reconnect

- Fixed empty Serato buffer size chooser. The Serato buffer size chooser ended up empty when you:
  • switch to "No Device" within the Serato architecture
  • switch to another architecture and back to Serato
  • select the SSL Asio device
- Fix a bug which may cause crash when quitting Serato, on PC.

- The buffer size is now persistent for the Serato virtual sound card.

- Disabled Serato Link when running as ReWire slave.
