REAPER 7.79: Towel of Babel
Import
- add informational text to tempo-match prompt when importing from Media Explorer with tempo-match enabled, but Preferences/Media/Import ‘prompt to adjust media to project tempo’ is disabled
- deprecate preference to prompt to adjust project tempo to imported media when media tempo is estimated
- prevent crash when importing file with more than 128 channels
- prompt to stretch media when importing from Media Explorer, when tempo-match preview settings do not match global import preferences
- regardless of preferences, automatically stretch media when importing from media explorer with tempo match enabled, and file contains tempo information
- when prompting to adjust empty project tempo to media, also prompt to stretch media to project tempo, regardless of other preferences
Media explorer

- preserve unwritten metadata when renaming files or folders
- when editing metadata, left/right arrows navigate text rather than navigating columns
MIDI editor
