New in v10.4

* Added support for reading and writing Yamaha EX5 files (.S1V,.S1M,.S1A).
* Added support for writing (in addition to reading) Yamaha Tyros 2 and Tyros 3 files (.TVN,.UVN).
* Added support for reading Yamaha Motif XF all/voice/wave files (.X3A,.X3V,.X3W).
* Added beta-support support for writing Yamaha Motif XS and Motif XF voice and wave files (.X0V,.X0W,.X3V,.X2W). This hasn't been fully tested yet, so feedback is appreciated.
* Added support for reading and writing Logic EXS24 files (.EXS). NB; only basic parameters are converted - LFOs, envelopes etc., are currently ignored.
* Added support for reading audio data from Matroska container format files (.MKV and.MKA). Currently the following audio codecs are supported: MPEG, AAC, Ogg, and PCM.
* Added support for reading songs from Cakewalk/Sonar work files (.WRK). This includes support for associated SoundFont files and for SysEx banks with Yamaha DX-series or Roland MT-32 instruments.
* Improved conversion of Kurzweil files (.KRZ,.K25).
* Added support for writing AKAI S900/S950 sample files.
* Added support for reading Ensoniq Mirage floppy disk images (.EDM). As these can not be reliably auto-detected, you must use a file extension of.EDM. NB; envelopes are not converted, and the pitch can be a bit shaky...
* Resampling of waveforms is now up to 8x faster.
* Added a "Compact MIDI file size" function to the "MIDI processing wizard", allowing removal of duplicate/unnecessary MIDI messages, and optional replacement of Note-Off with zero-velocity Note-On (which saves a Byte whenever the previous message is a Note-On on the same channel).
* Added an "Auto-detect and fix phase inversion" option to the "Convert to mono" function in the "Audio processing wizard".
* The MIDI track editor now allows multi-selection, so that you can delete more than one event in one go.
* When reading rare "format 2" MIDI files, each "pattern track" is now automatically converted into a separate format 0 songs.
* Added support for reading several "raw Adlib / OPL register capture" formats (with conversion of both song and instrument data):
- DOSBox Raw OPL format v1 & v2 (.DRO files).
- Rdos Raw OPL capture format (.RAW files).
- id Software Music Format (.IMF &.WLF files).
* Reading & writing Monkeys Audio files (.APE) now requires the external file MACDLL.dll (included in the latest codec pack).
* Added support for reading.WAV files containing Ogg Vorbis format compressed audio.
* Added support for reading 2/2.67/4-bit SoundBlaster/Creative Labs ADPCM compression from.VOC files.
* Added support for reading rare "non-seekeable".OGG files.
