Acoustica has updated Mixcraft 8 to v8.1 (the latest is build 390).

Mixcraft 8.1 Build 390:

• Fix for Gui markers getting out of sync with sound engine markers. (Was due to optimization in 389).
• Freezing MIDI output track automation lanes when parent track gets frozen.
• When loading a project with a frozen instrument track, any instrument output tracks will also set themselves to be "Frozen".

• "Sidechain Source" text is now properly vertically centered.
• Send knob twiddling from external controller when locked to envelope and no points on envelope.
