The product itself has dropped "Native" from its own name (Linux/Windows/macOS binaries and
the VST3 bundle are now just D-110 Emulator) - which CPU core runs underneath was never
something worth surfacing in the name, now that the native core is the only one shipped. The
MAME-backed backend remains in the source tree as a dormant, opt-in fallback, but is no longer
built or packaged here.

Fixes

  • Fixed an intermittent (~50% under fast repeated notes) note dropout: the extended editor's
    own tone picker left a part's voice-assign mode stale instead of resetting it the way the
    real panel does, tripping a genuine mt32emu single-assign voice-abort race.
  • Master Tune is now mirrored to the sound engine (previously excluded) - verified against the
    engine's own pitch-delta computation directly, not just by ear.
  • Fixed the sequencer metronome's click sometimes doubling onto the next beat under real
    (small, tempo-misaligned) audio block sizes - the previous version only kept rendering a
    click's decay tail on blocks where a new click also started.
  • Fixed the precount getting stuck reporting "still counting in" long after it had actually
    finished, under a realistic (non-beat-aligned) block size - a rounding residual that never
    quite reached zero.
  • Fixed the beat counter resuming mid-bar instead of on beat 1 after STOP.

New

  • D-20-style sequencer: right-click METRO for visual-only/audio-only/both, a volume submenu,
    routing the click through the rhythm channel (MIDI ch. 10, GM2 Metronome Click/Bell) instead
    of the internal beep, and a record-only click (most DAWs' convention). Right-click LOAD/SAVE
    to export/import all 4 song slots at once as a single .d110songs file.
  • Precount has its own downbeat LED flash, once per beat, independent of audio - so it can be
    followed with the sound off.
  • A light/dark theme for the custom-drawn interface (Utility tab -> THEME); the photographed
    panel keeps its own hardware colours either way.
  • The extended editor drawer is now resizable (drag the handle above the keyboard drawer) and
    the Utility tab scrolls.
  • Utility tab -> DEBUG: the note-dropout diagnostic instrumentation is now off by default
    (previously always ran and wrote to disk) - a checkbox turns it back on if it's ever needed
    again.

Linux/Windows/macOS zips and the .deb all ship the single D-110 Emulator (native core)
only.
