To coincide with NAMM 2020. QasarBeach has been updated to V1.18.

This gives a lot better importing of Series II and III Fairlight files, plus a host of new things and fixes.

There is also a new 'Cookbook' which details how to get the best out of QasarBeach, and gives detailed instructions on how to replicate sounds, and songs from famous people.

Here is the change list for V1.18 Update (Jan 17 2020 NAMM edition)
