Now available for Linux — .deb, .rpm and AppImage, for both regular PCs and ARM. Linux installs update themselves just like Windows. On a Mac, the app now tells you when a new version is out and opens the right download for your Mac (Apple Silicon or Intel) — this also fixes Help → Check for Updates showing an error on Macs.

Pressing Esc now stops every sound that's playing, same as the red STOP ALL button — anywhere in the window, even while typing in search.

Updates now ask before downloading anything. Say no and nothing is downloaded; say yes and it downloads in the background, then offers to restart.

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.
