* A new Patcher with advanced drag-and-drop patching and MIDI routing (see below).

* Reconnectable patch cords (grab them at either end).
* Multichannel connection creation.
* Patchable MIDI routing between VST contraptions and the new MidiIn1-8 contraptions.
* Contraption input and output level meters in the Patcher.

Work-flow improvements include:

You can run and edit your AudioMulch 1.0 documents in AudioMulch 2.0.

You can also load AudioMulch 2.0 documents in AudioMulch 1.0. However, if you intend to continue to use your old version 1.0 of AudioMulch please note:
If you edit an AudioMulch 1.0 document containing a Drums contraption in version 2, the Drums patterns will no longer load in version 1. This will happen even if you just load and save the document without editing any drum patterns. So if you wish to continue to use both versions 1 and 2 of AudioMulch, please make backup copies of your existing patches before you edit them in AudioMulch 2.0.
