The app now checks for updates on launch and installs them automatically in the background — a small prompt asks before restarting to apply one. Also added a Check for Updates item to the Help menu for checking on demand.

Renamed to MSTech SoundBoard. Added an emergency stop button in the toolbar that instantly silences every sound currently playing. The About dialog and toolbar now carry a small MSTech logo credit.

Added a Stop Previous Sound toggle (SPS) — when on, starting a new sound stops whatever else is playing, instead of letting sounds overlap.

Added independent Pitch control (−12 to +12 semitones), alongside Speed — raise or lower pitch without changing tempo, or dial in both at once.
