Hi all,
A bugfix version of TAP-plugins has been released. It aims to fix:
* problems on 64-bit (silence in EQ, etc)
* denormal problems
* GCC compiler warnings
* uninitialised variables (detected via Valgrind)
Thanks to Damon Chaplin for spotting the issues, working on the
solution and preparing a patch.
TAP-plugins is hosted on SourceForge, please visit:
http://tap-plugins.sf.nethttp://sourceforge.net/projects/tap-plugins/
There is no new functionality in this release. If 0.7.0 works perfectly
for you, there is no need to upgrade.
Enjoy,
Tom
