- AU version : in Logic on Apple Silicon, fixed possible crash if popping a dialog window and a control in it has focus
- AU version : added a preference named Plugin.UI.UseWindowModal (integer 1 to enable (0 to disable), this is off by default) to use window modal (only in Logic on Apple Silicon) on these so they can have focus
- CLAP hosting : fixed some plugins may not recall their state
- CLAP hosting : force sending CLAP_NOTE_DIALECT_MIDI even if the plugin prefers CLAP_NOTE_DIALECT_CLAP because there is no note_id in Bidule and this might cause problems

- VST2 version: removed Studio One-specific sidechain feature for 32 and 64 outputs versions in order to prevent Studio One crashing when using the 32 or 64 outputs version in a Dolby Atmos strip because Studio One would set Bidule to have a sidechain of the selected i/o configuration without supplying enough data pointers to read/write all the channels

- Windows : fixed palette filter textfield "eating" some keys
- Windows P64 VST2 version : fixed possible "noise" output in Cubendo after receiving output buffers from the host that are filled with junk values rather than being zeroed out
- MIDI Splitter : Split by note wasn't processing all notes off/all sounds off
- Note Creator 2 (discrete) : now using its own implementation of merging discrete events and keeping last events as the general one was preventing the create of notes depending on incoming discrete events order/position
- MIDI Input Selector/MIDI Output Selector/Note Splitter/NRPN To Params were showing a window when they should not
Version 0.9784 (June 6th, 2023)
---------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------
- Palette: now embedded inside the patchbay and no longer using the native tree control, click on the 8-10pixels on the right side of the scrollbar to have it behave like a drawer and open/close without using the Palette button on top, drag from lower-right corner to resize, click and type into Filter to only show bidules/plugins containing those characters, erase the text completely to go back to all available
- Palette and contextual menu: using same data source to build themselves, default ins defaults outs always showing up first if present

- VST3 version: fixed non-stereo I/O config not loading back correctly on Plugin Device in Cubase and Nuendo if the project sample rate is different than what is defined as the default one
- VST3 version: fixed using overriden bus and/or I/O count and depending on the host and its sequence of call when loading a project (because it's at a different sample rate than the "default" or some other thing) the shown I/Os on the plugin device might be wrong and cause problems
- CLAP hosting: fixed order of events sent to plugin can be wrong when there's a mix of MIDI events and CLAP note events
- VST3 hosting: added workaround for some plugins returning not supported on an supported input or output speaker arrangement because the other side is really unsupported
- VST3 scanning: added a delay into the terminate/release sequence to prevent one specific plug-in from causing a crash

- Text Areas: removed editing for monitoring/read-only cases
- Text Areas: now disabling automatic word wrapping except when it is useful
- macOS: fixed Key Stroke not picking up key up/down events
- macOS Ventura: fixed some specific combinations of the possible internal buffer size of some audio devices, Bidule's buffer size and using the inputs of those devices might end up causing a crash because of an AudioToolbox.framework function that has been completely removed in a Ventura update
- Windows: fixed possible crash when closing a window where a text box/area is currently being edited

Version 0.4100 pre-beta. (date?)
---------------------------------------------------
- Completely new Patchbay ( see next section )

This is a preliminary version of all Spectral Bidules, so for now
FFT size HAD to be fixed to 256 so is the Standard Audio BufferSize!!
you can't change it anymore in the registry for this version.
Also the Phase Vocoder overlap factor is also set to 1 (no overlapp)
So everything you do spectral-wise won't exaclty be high quality
all this section is _very_ alpha.(see Bidules section for specific details)
- Enhanced MIDI Sequencer (16 Sequences can run simultaneously, one for each midi channel)
- Added MIDI Splitter
- Added support for VST opcode audioMasterOpenFileSelector and VstPinProperties
- Changed saved files format ( you won't be able to load your previous .bidule files )

- Added option for selecting your own VSTPlugins directory and manually call the
scanning ( see the Edit Menu )

-ParticleSequencer: Spectrum colored balls.
BugFixes
-Patchbay: Seb added a feature that _we hope_ will solve lots
of crashes that occur when adding/removing connections in playback.
-Patchbay: Middle clicking + hiting del made Bidule crash!
(budz_ reported)

(ben@KVR reported)
