Beta 6 of Xhip Synth is now available.

Changes:

• Fixed bug with loading patch names.
• Completely rewrote all GUI code, now using directdraw, many improvements.
• Added shift-drag for sliders, two pixels adjust control by one increment (256ths for most params).
• Updated the look of controls using the new systems, transparency, etc.
• Improved speed of oscillators by as much as 1.5x or more.
• Improved method in which modulation is routed, slight speed improvement.
• Hopefully fixed all problems with allocation and Cubase, etc.
• Mostly fixed triangle and sine waves, they are still not perfect, but very close.
• Implemented totally virtualized graphics system, enabling porting to other systems more easily.
• Implemented paged interface, taking advantage of new "frame/window/etc" based GUI system.
• Added more patches to fill out the "default" bank a bit more.
• Now distributing a GUI-less version for compatibility with bad hosts.
• Greatly reduced the amount of color used in the GUI.
• Partly fixed bug with allocation of voices (adjusting notelogic parameter).
• Limited range of notes to standard MIDI (0-127).
• Adjusted frequency handling internals to be slightly more accurate.
• Fixed bug with envelope keytracking possibly locking up envelope with high notes.
• Made major changes to the way the new GUI handles messages and redraw.
• Shaded regions, improved look of xhip GUI.
• Added checkbox to enable/disable output clipping to allow out of range data (greater than 2pp). Warning, this can cause horrible slowdowns, clipping / wrapping, and other effects in some hosts,
  or with some effects placed after xhip. Leave clipping on if you are unsure about it.
• Optimized clipping method for parameter routing, 120% speed increase.
