One third time,

   Qtractor 0.9.34 (spring'23) is released!

Change-log:
- Fixed the snap-to-beat of new notes entry on the MIDI clip editor 
(aka. piano-roll) due on time signature changes.
- Start JACK transport rolling only when metronome Count-in ends.
- Fixed an allegedly old and incorrect 0dBfs notch position on MIDI 
track/buses audio meter sidekicks.
- Send/return and Aux-send inserts now show the proper name and the 
target output bus name on the properties editor title respectively.
- Fixed a zero-day blunder that was keeping the real-time process cycle 
from having the uniform block-size of 64 frames per period; (thus, 
probably ineffective since v0.9.30).
- Multiple MIDI clip tools may now be applied simultaneously, in a 
single shot, in the following priority order: quantize, transpose, 
normalize, resize, rescale and timeshift.
- Plugin inventory scan now slightly optimized to an allegedly lesser 
aggressive cache-invalidation algorithm.
- Do not send/Preview notes on the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) 
when playback is currently rolling.
- Send all pending MIDI Note-Off events when playback stops/shuts-off 
(and/or the Panic! button is hit).
- Fixed the internal MIDI file player queue to the highest resolution 
possible (PPQN aka ticks-per-beat).
- Prepping into the next development cycle (with Qt >= 6.5).

Description:
   Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application 
written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, 
where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the 
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main 
infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio 
workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
