• You can now choose the "merge files" option when importing 2 same-length audio files, and they will import to
a stereo track.
• Add a shortcut to /Volumes in the Open Session dialog. This makes it easier to find sessions on a removable
drive.
• Add a switch to turn OFF internationalization (for users that want OSX in their language, but Mixbus in English)
• Use the term 'Markers' instead of 'Marks', more consistently.
• Correctly use broadcast wave file timestamps when importing.
• Switch many instances of "Ardour" to "Mixbus" such as MIDI ports, etc.
• Dialog now makes clear that when you delete a track, the session will be saved.
• Apple plug-ins are no longer separated into more categories than other plug-ins.
• Reinstate some MISC options that were lost:
• Link Region and Track Selection
• Name New Markers
• Rubberband select snaps to grid
• Auto-analyze new audio
• Dragging a region to exactly time "zero" was fiddly, this has been made easier.
• It is no longer possible to delete a mixbus or the master bus.
• Default JACK ports to 512 instead of 128.
• Remove "JACK does monitoring" option which has no effect on OSX.

KNOWN ISSUES

• Sessions opened in 1.3, then re-opened in 1.2 may display the Mix buses in the wrong order. Sound will be
correct, though.
• Some users have reported problems with 1.3 using UAD plug-ins. We have tested at the factory on a
G5+UAD1 PCI system, as well as an Intel UAD2 Solo system, and it works for us.
• The solo-ing error on the Mix buses (where soloing a mixbus still allows any 'direct' assignments to the master
bus to be heard) is still present in 1.3
• Some users report that fader automation starting at time "0" will cause playback to fail.

Mixbus v1.2 (6707)

FEATURES
Show all tracks with regions under playhead:

Right-click the Track/Bus side panel, and you'll find a new option to show all tracks with regions. Any track
with a region under the playhead will be unhidden. Tracks without regions under the playhead will be hid-
den. This is a nice editing convenience that helps you manage large sessions.

Save As:

In addition to Save and Snapshot, there is now a ¨Save As¨ function which creates a new snapshot in the
session, but differs from "snapshot" in that future Save commands to go into the newly-created snapshot.

Track templates:

Track templates can be stored by clicking on the track name and choosing "Save As Template". Templates
can be recalled by choosing the template from the ¨Channel Configuration¨ selector when making a new
track/bus.

Language translation:

Mixbus now supports many different languages for menus and dialog text. To select a different language on
OSX, use the “System Preferences->International->Language” dialog. Supported languages include English,
French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, Greek, Swedish, Polish, Czech, and
Norwegian. (See the About page for translator credits)

Ardour Exchange compatibility:

Ardour Exchange is a third-party utility which allows you to import AAF session files into the Ardour/Mixbus
