Optimizations

Meters and Now Time display are now more responsive and uses less CPU when multiple projects are open. Rapid scroll and clip drag operations in the UI no longer cause meter and time updates to lag.

Various improvements to audio engine for better ASIO compatibility.

Optimized audio engine to set ASIO buffer sizes and sample rates more efficiently.

Minimized the number of VST3 start/stop state changes during project load. This greatly improves the load time for certain plug-ins such as Vienna Ensemble Pro.
