In add algorithm screen you can now select between Factory or Community plugins or All. Reload is faster, and so is changing parameters via the sliders. Plugin Gallery: you can choose which plugins you want to install from a collection so you don't have to install all of them. The app will set the real time clock on NT when you load nt_helper.

- Note editing - Preset Loading can scan SD over Sysex - Plugin Manager - Drag and Drop plugin installation - Support for gallery, install directly to NT over SysEX - CPU Meters

Additional SysEx support for setting Note Text, and SD Card preset file reading while you are connected to the hardware.

You can enable a setting that shows algorithm editors collapsed by default.

- Preset scanning, so you don't have to remember the full path to all of your presets all of the time. - Algorithm Documentation - Additive Category filters

* Realtime routing analysis, well, if you consider 10 second polling to be real-time. * Widescreen support for algorithm displays so instead of tabs you'll see a sidebar * Bug fixes for incomplete syncs

Fixed issues with BPM editor on smaller screens.

BPM Editor and New Preset confirmation.
