当然，你可以自己设定是否要不要闪光，用以下方法：
[Setup]
PunchModeFlashingType=0 -> disbles flahsing
or
[Setup]
PunchModeFlashingType=2 -> enables flashing even when starting with playback -multiple punchin markers ("punch in+" "punch out+" marker via playback/record->punchin menu or right click on punch marker in transport control or pressing ALT key while setting punch in marker with transport control
- record in live input mode now implemented
现在彻底实现了录音实时监听！
- switching ASIO monitoring options in main menu or by right clicking on the monitoring button in the transport control
- single tracks can permanently be monitored when working with ASIO drivers in addition to tape machine monitoring (-> monitoring button in VIP/mixer or via menu) or exclusively (with deactivated Tape Monitoring)
每一个轨道可以独立设置录音实时监听

-software monitoring with FX uses the effect settings of the monitored track
-separate buffer settings for MME/WDM and ASIO (new defaults for ASIO:
4x2000)

-VST-FX:
-Setup->Paths: select your VST plugin path
-plugins are available in DirectX dialog VST tab
可以自由选择你的 VST 插件路径
-several plugins don't work with Samplitude, just close the corresponding message boxes when Samplitude tests these plugins for the first time
-VST startup assurance: if Samplitude crashes while testing a plugin it will automatically disabled the next time -> repeated start of Samplitude always gives success
-there's a Pre/Post options as with DirectX
-for technical reasons you can't mix them arbitrary with DirectX plugins -> they are applied after the corresponding DirectX plugins
-offline VST processing with latency compensation
-Latency compensation in tracks, busses and master:
延迟补偿技术
-automatical compensation for VST-FX (TC Powercore: please use Powercore software version v1.6 or later, there are several small buffering issues fixed and buffer sizes >8192 samples available)
-for DirectX plugins (e.g. Waves Linear Phase EQ) latency is measured while playing the first time, hence latency is only compensated correctly the second time; the measured latency is remembered after saving/loading of a project/mixer snapshot, but sometimes it additionally depends on the VIP buffer size
-as alternative you can force a certain latency value (e.g. SEK'D declicker with 512 samples, this one is even recognized automatically) or VST wrapper effects
-latency compensation can be deactivated for a project in the mixer setup dialog
-for offline DirectX effects compensation is only necessary and applied with the "Force Latency" option
-Batch processing:
-common editng and conversion for several files at once
-loads/saves file lists in m3u format
-there are several jobs available for executing different tasks one after another

-change of bitdepth
-stereo<->mono processing
-normalisation or relative volume changes
-applying fadein/-out
-timestretching/pitchshifting/resampling
-declipping
-remove DC
-additionally (as with virtual wave editing) there's a complete master FX section available for effect processing (e.g. all Samplitude-realtime effects + DirectX/VST plugins), can be loaded as mixer snapshot (*.mix) or edited directly
Visualisation:
-new correlation and direction meter
-bitmeter for showing the bitdepth of currently recorded/played badck
material
!!!Attention: display always BEFORE final dithering
-more FFT options for Spektroscope/Spectrogram (FFT-Size,Windowing function, Overlap)
-adjustable frequency range for linear spectroscope/spectrogram
-faster update while recording and destructive editing
-new switch able color schemes

在 object editor 里面新增加一个 play solo 按钮，按下后可以独奏这个 object ，还有状态条显示。
-Soft-Mute/Solo (short fades for corresponding tracks to avoid clicking)
如果你觉得 solo/mute 按钮太突然，可以选择“Soft-Mute/Solo ”按钮，按下后会自动fade……
-option for graying out muted tracks and obejcts, can be switched in
Shift-Tab-dialog, this works as well for "play selected objects"
如果你 mute 掉了某些轨道（或者 object，别忘了sam是可以单独mute object的！），那些轨道会呈现灰色，以提醒你这些轨道没有出声。当然，你也可以不选择这么做。
-value edits now accept ',' instead of '.'
-time edits now correctly wrap around with mouse and keyboard (e.g. from 0:59 to 1:00)
-extended options for Join/Split Stereo (e.g. in virtual wave editing mode or in VIP)
-sync buttons in the transport control can now be used to switch
synchronization on or off
- when right clicking on a marker in the transport control or a snapshot in the arranger and mixer a menu will be displayed containing a delete function among other things. This reenables right click functionality without risk.
-crossfades for destructive effects (set crossfade length in system dialog)
-configurable FX order in objects
-Objekt und Track Gain now dB-linear from -/+12dB
- faster play start with activated trackspeed, especially for jumping while playing
