What's new in 1.73

Bug fixes: Some devices could become unresponsive when accessing certain samples. A file system check has been added to detect potential problems. If the file system check reports a problem, back up your samples and projects, then reformat the +Drive samples. MIDI messages were sometimes not sent if the device tempo was set to very low BPMs.
