    + Mackie Control mode (untested on a real Mackie, subset, etc.)
    + this will improve once we get access to more real hardware
  + new feature: envelope automation record modes (preliminary but neat)
  + midi: file reader fix, updated to use win32 file io and lock midi file when in use
  + import/export: fixed newer EDL TXT reading, made read EDL items use filename for titles
  + OGG Vorbis rendering output support (this is the reason for the installer size increase)
  + MP3/lame rendering output support if lame_enc.dll (and patent license where applicable)
    is present (we do not include it however)

v0.43 - Jan 6 2006
  + made configuration files stored in application data\reaper by default
    (if the config files exist in the exe dir they will be used instead)
  + basic VST effect and VSTi softsynth support
  + effect bypass support in effect list
  + DirectX plugins properly use channels/samplerate info for processing
  + made record arming of tracks able to be toggled while recording, and record 
    channel change (mono/stereo) creating new file(s) at the change)
  + record option to start a new file every X megabytes (1024 by default)
  + option to save relative pathnames in project file for media items
  + preferences uses treeview instead of tabs, to allow more stuff/better organization
  + preferences page for configuration of DX/VST/JS paths etc
  + preferences has audio configuration now
  + MIDI input and recording support (VSTi-only output)
    -- NOTE: the MIDI input support is very crappy at the moment, the accuracy of the timing of
       MIDI events is HORRIBLE. Sorry. It will be improved.
  + MIDI file reading support (VSTi-only output)
  + switched most media item/peaks file i/o to use native win32 functions, so no longer
    limited to 509 open files

  + option for keeping envelopes attached to media items
  + better crossfade when dragging items across tracks
  + better snapping (snaps to closest items), menu item option for it
  + undo/redo history stack window
  + changed some keyboard controls -- space is now play/stop, ctrl+space is pause/play,
    and escape clears any loop selection

    - it actually records everything, but just inserts the intersection into the project
