MixDesk X 1.42.022 — Save As, robust preset loading & "No output"

Save As & keyboard shortcuts

  • New "SAVE AS…" button in the toolbar — always opens the file dialog, so
    keeping multiple mixer setups (studio, show, streaming …) is one click.
  • Keyboard shortcuts: Cmd/Ctrl+S saves to the current preset file,
    Shift+Cmd/Ctrl+S is Save As. (Shift-clicking SAVE still works too.)

Presets now survive missing and re-plugged devices

Previously, if one device from your preset was unplugged, the whole preset
silently failed to load. Now:

  • Everything loads — channels and buses keep all their settings even when
    their device is currently missing, and a toast tells you which one it is.
  • Automatic reconnect — the moment the device comes back, audio resumes
    (within ~2 seconds), no clicks needed.
  • Re-plugged into a different port? macOS/Windows device IDs can change
    with the port. Presets now also store the device name and re-match by it,
    so moving a USB DAC to another port no longer "loses" it.
    (Existing presets: re-select the device once and save — from then on it sticks.)
  • No silent fallback to the default output. A missing device shows as
    "⚠ device missing" in the picker instead of visually falling back to the
    default — which could route a bus straight into its own capture source and
    build a feedback loop.

New: "(no output)" bus option

A bus can now deliberately run without an output device — useful for
processing/standby buses. No stream is opened, meters stay dark, and the
engine keeps everything tidy in the background.

All new UI texts are translated in all 9 languages.
Includes everything from 1.42.021 (the USB-DAC distortion fix on macOS).
