Hi Leif.
The vers. 02-31 has resolved the problem of delay in the keyboard input and also correct level of the noise-floor in db-bluscale; ok in Win/svga/ X11.
I have found a problem in on-line modify parameters in Win/svga/ X11
During normal operation "A" and after have pressed "X" they could be varied only the parameters of the first panel. After the 1st enter-key  return directly in normal operation "A".
Thank you for the hard job.
