Improvements

Updated several texts.

Updated English manual.

It is now possible to drag a complete folder with presets and/or samples from the browser onto a Drum rack.

Improve the performance when loading large presets.

Support for the Record LED when using the Remote SL as controller surface.

Bug fixes

In ReWire slave mode, sending MIDI data from the master to more than one target within Live could result in audio drop-outs.

Freezing of drum racks with chain-out routings to top level would not work properly.

Changing the “Block” value in the Spectrum device would create audio drop-outs.

In ReWire slave mode, clips would play from the beginning when Live is rewinded back.

On certain conditions, the MIDI handling of VSTs could not work properly.

Undoing the creation of a time signature editing would crash Live.

Installing several packages at once which would contain a certain file that already exists and is modified locally, the question whether to replace this file is asked for each pack even when the user answered 'yes to all'.

On certain conditions, a progress bar could display a value greater than 100%.

I'm seeing some problems with latency in this latest beta. With 7.0.2 and direct monitoring I get essentially no recording delay when recording clips from my Machinedrum. In 7.0.3 I get ~ 20ms of latency, which is comparable to what I get with software monitoring.

specifics:
OS X 10.5.2
MOTU Ultralite Midi -> Machinedrum sync, direct monitoring through the MOTU
audio latency set at 1.60ms
midi clock going to the md set at -4ms latency with "song" sync type
