Hi 64 Studio testers,

We would love to include Ardour 2.8 into 64 Studio 3.0, so if you'd like to test the latest test release, build the latest ardour according to the quick howto on the 64 Studio forums...

Cheers,
Quentin

******** THIS IS NOT A RELEASE, ITS A REQUEST FOR A BIT MORE TESTING *******

http://releases.ardour.org/ardour-2.8-4909.tar.bz2

test compiles, tests, comments invited. release notes shown below. i don't
think there has been much testing of things with SVN recently, this is the
time.

thanks.

New Features

   * Track Templates
   * Distributable VST support
   * VST preset handling
   * VST chunk handling
   * AudioUnit state & preset handling
   * new playhead-to-{next,previous}-region-boundary variant commands
       that ignores track selection (on Linux, Windows-LeftArrow or
       Windows-RightArrow; on OS X, Ctrl-LeftArrow or Ctrl-RightArrow)
   * New, thoroughly edited Spanish translation
   * New "accurate" crossfade icons

Fixes
-----
   * Correct handling of Shift- shortcuts on OS X
   * Fix confusion with Ctrl/Cmd/Option on OS X
   * Cmd-, now shows Preferences window on OS X
   * Removing a track/bus that was visible in the editor mixer strip
       causes the editor mixer strip to move to the next track/bus
   * Default click output is dual mono (2 outs), not mono (1 out)
   * Fix ordering of editor & mixer displays when order in the
       other window is changed and sync-editor-mixer-order is enabled.
   * If we attempt to move beyond the current limit of the horizontal
     scrollbar, change its upper limit so that we keep scrolling
     (fixes a bug with playhead tracking beyond the current session
     end)
   * Standardize sizing of ComboBoxSelectors throughout the GUI
   * Fix crash when renaming a track after deleting a plugin that had
     a visible GUI/editor window
   * Make "consolidate range" and "bounce range to region list" not
     apply processing to the original audio.
   * Added variants of "consolidate range" and "bounce range"
     which do apply processing.
   * Fix potential for clipping when use Transpose or TimeFX
   * Standardize some menu actions across CD and loop/punch rulers.
     also allow right-click drag to create regions, which may be more
     discoverable than ctrl-click drag because the other rulers
     already use right-click for creating markers
   * "Mute region" shortcut operates on all selected regions
   * Fixes for crossfade clicks
   * Fixes for gcc 4.4
   * Fix crash when sending MIDI feedback with MTC enabled
   * Allow dragging of automation lines
   * Preserve sufficient significant digits when saving automation
     events to disk
   * Quantize shuttle speed changes to whole semitones when shuttle
     in semitone mode
   * Use region sync points correctly for grid and playhead motion
   * Fix subtle bug when playing plugin automation that could
     sometimes lead to crashes and memory corruption
   * Use Vamp 2.0 and Rubberband 1.3 (includes an important fix
     for a potential audible issue when stretching)
   * Fix freeze progress bar display
   * Fix potential crash caused by multithreaded execution of
     plugins while "freezing" a track
   * Make name-click to toggle plugin active state show up via the
     bypass button state in the GUI
   * be willing to load some additional types of AU plugins, including
     AUNetSend and AUNetReceive
   * Context menu-driven operations on ruler bars now cause things to
     be added in the right place (e.g. new markers)
   * Fix a crash that occured while dragging a region after a split
