QLC+ 4.7.3 is here, as the third maintenance release of the 4.7 series.
There are a few improvements on several areas and a few crashes have gone away.
Even though minor releases don't aim to introduce new features, version 4.7.3 brings two major things:

* A brand new Japanese translation thanks to Koichiro Saito
* Channels modifiers. A few of you requested them (and I needed them too) so I took the chance to implement it. They can be set from the Fixture Manager/Channel fade configuration button. Please refer to the QLC+ documentation to understand how they work.
Here's a screenshot of how the selector/editor looks like:

On the other hand, the finnish translation has been excluded from releases due to lack of maintenance
As usual, thanks also to everyone that submitted new fixtures, bugfixes and feedbacks.

Changelog:

* NEW: it is now possible to assign a modifier curve to a channel
* NEW: added Japanese translation (many thanks to Koichiro Saito)
* Engine: Fixed fallback IO mapping messing up plugins lines
* Engine: Fixed audio playback on non-default device working only once
* UI: Fix saving changes when: closing QLC+, opening file, creating new file

Dear Massimo, thanks for the new release. Did you change anything in AUDIO for the OS X - Version?

Or is it just my freshly set up system? I freshly reinstalled my ancient early2009 Macbook with Yosemite DP2 and had the same unexpected shutdown of QLC plus when selecting the MacBooks Microphone for Input. That's no problem as I already "knew" it will and the setting for input will stick during the crash. So after restarting QLC+ the input is set to Microphone. But still no audio input for the triggers.

But when setting the microphone to 16bit/44kHz (default it's set to 24bit/48kHz) it works just as flawless as it did within windows.

So however. Thanks for your great work.

Sascha
