Hi all,

I've just uploaded a release candidate for Tap.Tools 3.0.1. The links
are:
Mac: http://electrotap.org/taptools/Tap.Tools-3.0.1.dmg
Win: http://electrotap.org/taptools/Tap.Tools-3.0.1.zip

Please be sure you are using Max 5.0.6 first. Max 5.0.5 won't cut it.

Here are the list of changes (also located in the ReadMe):

- Performance and reliability improvements to all objects referening
buffers (e.g. tap.buffer.peak~, tap.buffer.snap~, etc.).
- Eliminated external dependency on the MaxObject framework (now
linked internally)
- Updated to use a version of the Jamoma DSP Library that is
compatible with the latest versions of Jamoma
- tap.jit.ali help patcher fixes, now fits on a MacBook screen
(submitted by Nils Peters)
- various help patcher and documentation fixes and updates (including
fixed usage of named-default colors)
- tap.sustain~: now documents the ‘buffer clear’ message
- tap.sustain~: fixed divide by zero error when created with no
arguments.
- tap.sustain references now indicate the time units required for the
object's attributes.
- tap.svf~: fixed the ‘clear’ message (was missing in the initial 3.0
release)
- tap.svf~: internally limits the range of the frequencies used to
control the lfo so that it doesn't blow up.
- object descriptions are now displayed in the file browser (requires
Max 5.0.6 or higher)
- tap.jit.delay: no longer posts ugly (but harmless) error messages to
the Max window upon instantiation
- tap.jit.delay help patcher: fixed bug where delay times were not
calculated (thanks to Nils Peters for submitting the fix)
- tap.tools will now set the default state of sortpatcherdictonsave
feature of Max to true (requires Max 5.0.6 or higher)
- tap.filter: a list of available filters is now in a drop-down menu
when using the object's inspector.
- tap.crossfade is now multichannel capable - the first argument to
the object defines the number of channels on which to operate.
- multichannel objects are now identified (and searchable) in the file
browser with the 'Multichannel' tag.
- added missing documentation for the tap.rotate object
- new object: tap.inquisitor - accesses the attribute values of
another named object

Please let me know if you have any troubles.

best,
Tim

A new release candidate for the Mac has been uploaded to the same
location as the previous one (see below). This fixes the Tap.Tools
Builder bug in the first release candidate. There are no changes for
Windows (it did not enjoy the bug we had on the Mac).

Please let me know if there are any problems,
Tim
