New Menu 205 Punch to In/Out (Front Panel Only)
Menu 205 adds the ability to disable auto updating of the In and Out Points when manually punching. When set to
"On", the In and Out points will automatically be updated to the most recently recorded event, following a
recording. When set to "Off", In and Out points can only be stored manually via the Capture key or using the
cursor in ViewNet MX.
NOTE: ViewNet version 1.53 does not support this menu yet. Menu 205 can only be adjusted via the MX-2424
front panel or the RC-2424. The next version of ViewNet MX will add support for this menu item.

Fix for using duplicate project names
In previous software versions, if the user gave a new project an existing
always prompt that the project already exists. This is now fixed. When a new project is given an existing project
name, any active tracks from the existing project will become unloaded virtual tracks in the newly created project
