Woohoo, a new SAASound release!

As usual, this is a binary-compatible drop-in replacement, so you can overwrite the one provided with SimCoupe.

This includes some important fixes including a fix for an audio-crackling regression introduced last year, as well as some additional fixes to the oversampling ('filter') mode. This also includes previous fixes from 3.3-prerelease packages. And this release package now includes a bundled VCREDIST from Microsoft, to ensure you are not missing any C-runtime DLLs . This is based on feedback from people upgrading from earlier versions. You can also download the slimline version that doesn't include the Microsoft C-runtime DLLs, which is a LOT smaller.

The source tree includes some work-in-progress lowpass filtering that is not yet enabled, as well as some ideas around better oversampling modes. These are both things I'd like to improve. In the near future, I'd also like to improve the configuration options handlers, as well as one or two new features including an API to enable debug logging and per-channel audio output files - with the intention to integrate these configuration handlers into SimCoupe. And then after that, perhaps with version 4.0, I would probably rewrite the engine to use a multisampled hardware emulation running at 8MHz, based on further analysis from my physical SAA1099-Raspberry-Pi development kit.
