- Fixed a problem whereby the DSP state in the VST version could sometimes be bad upon first loading SFX Machine RT.

- "Not authorized yet" alert should now appear after the plugin graphics draw, instead of before (looks less glitchy).

- Importing an old Premiere preset while audio was running could cause a crash in the AU version.

- The preset list highlight is now removed when an old preset is imported in the VST version.

- The preset name in the presets list is now updated when an old preset is imported.
