-   What's new?
-   The UI was heavy redesigned to add new controls and options. The drumkits list now visible all the time instead of lurky combo box. This allows select kits in a more natural way. The new kits scanner provides kits list faster than before.
-   To speed-up the loading of large kits with the samplerate that differs from session's samplerate, you can make a resampled copy of the kit using a new "Adapt" button.
-   Another big enhancement is the MIDI mapping support via plugin's engine. Please read the Manual for details. With built-in mapping modes, you can turn on GM-compatibility mode for e-drums, pads or made Ardour's drum grooves sound right. Almost all Drumlabooh native format kits are updated for such compatibility. SFZ mapping setting are also supported.
-   Pan mode and panning code are fixed, all panning modes now works as intended. The status log area has been added to make changes more visible. Many code was refactored and rewritten.
+   Just after a previous "big update" here is another one. Ready-to-use drumkits are good thing, but what about all that thouthands sample packs, commercial and free? We need a way to load and play any samples, not just from the drumkits!
+   Thus, Drumlabooh 6 introduces the conception of Quick Kits (see the "Quick Custom Kits" section of the Manual). Using buttons "+" and "-" near the cell/slot name, you can add any external samples to the sample slots, remove samples from the slots, and save it as the Quick Kit with some name.
+  Other news and fixes for this release - GUI at the multi-channel mode has been fixed; many few and boring fixes. Windows build rolled back to compile with JUCE 7, to make it compatible with Windows 7.
+  The Manual at the homesite (https://psemiletov.github.io/drumlabooh/) is rewritten a lot.
 
    Stay tuned, Peter Semiletov
