Max Application Bug Fixes :
Supports the hosting of the latest versions of Pluggo, Mode, and Hipno (3.5.4, 1.2.4, 1.0.4) using the vst~ object.
Collective builder creates plug-ins with the correct number of channels listed in the plug-in's metadata rather than assuming stereo.


Max/MSP Object Changes :
(random, urn, and drunk) fixed bug where multiple random objects instantiated at the same time would produce similar results.
(drunk) fixed bug for potential crash in random number generation.
(line) Fixed bug where line wouldn't work with a setclock.
(spell) input characters with ascii value above 127 are now output correctly.
(zl) right inlet input won't mess up currently-outputting lists
(qlist) fixed incorrect assistance strings, fixed crash when opening editor if file not found.
(multislider) fixed off-by-one bug with candycane colors 9-23. It now works as documented / intended.
(ad_asio, Windows) added support for the following sample rates: 64000, 88200, 128000, 176400.
(cross~ helpfile) added missing pcontrol so the "see also" section works properly.
(poly~) changed steal mode so that instead of stealing the first available instance in note-off mode, it steals the instance that was sent a note-on longest ago. Previously if you were playing non-overlapping notes with long decays and using all available instances, it was simply stealing the first instance every time.
(pattrforward) fixed inlet-addressing bug
(tapout~) delay times are now sample accurate
