Hello,
I think I’ve just found two bugs in Podium 2.09 demo.
– When Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth is ticked as MIDI out in preferences, ASIO (ASIO4ALL 2.8) cannot initialize even though the soundcard is unused at all.
– When pitch bend data (or any other MIDI event?) event block from a pitch bend track having ! (exclaimer) icon, is moved/copied to another pitch bend track, the new track cannot be deleted without Podium crashing, but when data is drawn by hand, it’s OK.
It makes no difference whether 1 or more cores are active (affinity), same with enabling/disabling rewire and multiprocessing.
Zynewave, how can I send you a small project file I’m using to replicate the crash, privately?

I think this is due to the way the Microsoft Synth works. When the MS Synth is enabled, it will allocate its output to the default audio device as configured in the Windows Control Panel. Most ASIO drivers will not initialize if the soundcard is locked by another application, in this case the MS synth. Tricky š®

It should not be possible to get the ! error button on automation tracks. Please send me the project.

Do you mean it makes no difference to the crash caused by the pitch bend track?

Yeah that pretty much explains it š Thanks š
Would it be possible to add a message box to let the user know that two outputs fought each other, so no one thinks it’s a bug anymore?

Yes
I have sent you the project file. Let me know if you can recreate the bug.

Hello Zynewave,
Have you taken a look at the project file I sent you? š

Not yet. I want to wrap up the current feature I’m working on first.
Thanks for the bug report and the project file.
The crash occurs in the curve editor, when the events on the track you delete are shown in the curve editor.
Bug is fixed in Podium 2.11, which probably will be released within a week.
I’m glad to be of some help š
