    I can't find anything different but at least I will have something to look forward to.

    That's not very nice. I resemble that remark! ;-)

    Kool. :-) Nice... for sure.

    I make some videos. This one shows how to do a physical loopback on the RME UCX to get many more equalizer nodes.

    Author's are disqualified from entering :) Yeah the link Scott posted lists the new dynamic presets and direct navigation.
     
    The Project audio folder preset works like a media bin and lists all the wave files in your project.
    For project saved with a project audio folder this will list all files in that folder. For global audio projects this will list the contents of the global audio folder. It will even update as you record new wave files in real time.
    This can be handy if you deleted something from a version of a project and want to find  it (as long as you haven't run clean audio disk).  Files from the project audio folder can be dragged in to your project or even to a different project if multiple projects are open.  
    The direct navigation option is also a handy way to quickly navigate to a folder by typing in its name.

    I love that folders instantly update now. This was a cause of irritation before, so full marks on that score!
     
    However, I don't like that I still can't use my mouse's navigation buttons to navigate backwards and forwards. Any chance of this in a future update?

    Yes all folders now update in realtime.
    I don't believe that mouse navigation buttons are universal. What did you have in mind?
    I think backspace works there to navigate backwards btw.

    I find mouse navigation buttons to be work in most folder browsers. They work exactly as they do in web browsers - i.e. one button goes back and another goes forward. To be clear, I'm talking about the dedicated navigation buttons that are found on most mice - they're usually on the side of the mouse and are activated with the thumb. I use them instinctively for browsing and it's so much easier than having to mouse up to the back arrow and click it. Thanks for the backspace tip by the way, that's a little better, but it's still nowhere near as convenient as using the navigation buttons.

    > "Quickly jump to a specific folder"
     
    Does that auto-complete, e.g. like when tying in an explorer window's path area?
