Beta 1 Complete
14.09.09

Released version beta 1 to day.
There is still so much to be done, but I have to send it out now.
I hope I does not introduce any new problems to you. Anyway back up your projects before saving them in the beta version incase something is wrong.
See the change log for more details on whats new.

New forum
06.09.09

Created a user forum: here
This should make it more easy to post questions and exchange ideas. The comments sections still works though.
Work on Beta 1 continues, tasks are checked out of the todo list each day but we also add new items all the time.
At some point I'll just have to release it, there is so much I want to put in :)

Working on the first Beta release
14.08.09

Work on the first beta release continues, adding some cool new features, fixing a bunch of bugs and most of all starting to create some documentation and help files.
The new documentation will be available both online and as a printable pdf.
I'll be uploading the changes from time to time and they can be found here (I will of course make a proper link when it is done)
It's really a work in progress but it might help some of you anyway.

gain knobs

Have added gain trim on the inputs and outputs these two knobs trim the levels of all inputs and outputs and can be set between Off and +6dB. These levels can be automated using the cue lists.
Have also added MIDI output on each plugin.
And you can now set bypass and on off states in a cue.

Work goes a bit slow at the moment both because it takes time to get the documentation up to date and because I have to do some real, paid, audio work.

Hope you all are enjoying the software so far and thanks to all who report bugs and ideas for improvements.
Stay tuned for the next release.

Alpha 4 is done!
26.06.09

Yes, it took some time but now it is complete. Download and test it. These new features might look simple but they are actually pretty complex to implement, so there are probably some bugs I haven't found yet. Send me an email or make a comment on the web if you find something fishy.
Have fun.

 

Meters
22.06.09

There have been several request for input and output meters. Now they are ready!
Alpha 4 is almost complete will release it later this week. First we go sailing!

Sneak peak at the new cue list
05.06.09

Here is a early version of what the cue list looks like

The new cue list enables you to change settings during a performance.
Each cue can contain as many "actions" as you like. These actions can be recalling a snapshot on a plugin, changing the project tempo, recalling a workspace, sending a midi message, etc.

All actions in a cue are applied at the same time, unless a delay is entered in the pre or post fade fields.
Some actions, like recalling snapshots, can have fade times for fading from one snapshot value to the other.

Hope I can get this out to you all as soon as possible, but it's a lot of work and I want it to be as good as possible before you test it.
Stay tuned

CuelistPreview

 


Here is a preview of the new MIDI map window.
12.05.09

You can map any plugin parameter to a midi message. The map has 8 layers, so it should be pretty flexible.
You can also add midi commands to program functions, such as Tempo tap, controller layer, and recall workspace.

Let me know what you think. Have I forgotten something?

I'm also working on a new plugin list for adding plugins. The old list was a bit messy and apparently had some bugs.
The new list shows folders or categories as yellow drop down menus, and it is sorted alphabetically
