Hello Zynewave I know this is waaaaay off the topic but I must ask-
1: How hard would it be for you to develop a MIDI Keyboard option in Podium?[EX: I hit “a, s, d, f, and notes play…] Because I don’t know the full spectrum on coding for Podium but I am just wondering…
2: And will it be ever implemented in Podium?
Such a feature would probably take me up to a week to implement, depending on whether a fancy UI keyboard should be displayed. etc. It is likely I’ll implement it at some point, but unless priorities change, I have my hands full for 2011.
Ah ok Zynewave. I understand your project goals for 2011. 🙂 I am not sad or upset at this matter because usually when I think of a cool harmony for a song I make it in Podium without using a [internal]MIDI Keyboard feature. I’m actually happy to see you have a confirmed idea[at some time when you feel it is necessary to implement] of when you would[or may] put that feature in Podium. But for now I can live without it. Because like many little hiccups in Podium, I’ve found a way around it and have grown more as a artist. 🙂 But thanks for the reply.
Have a safe and happy New Year everyone. 😛 😀 8) 😉

Oh! And for those who think: That idea is “stupid”, Zynewave if you do one day make that update, please have a OPTION with a CHECKBOX so those who don’t want to use the feature can just “turn it off”. 😛
InfinitoarThat’s good Zynewave you took a break. Everyone needs a break from work, especially work that bends the mind to the point of almost breaking.

infinitoar – big tick rhino is currently on sale for 35 euros – an absolute steal for a supreme quality synth – very stable.
Thanks Blade! I meant to thank you for the list. I’m a “bit” lazy[just a bit 😀 ] but if you know of some other good plugins that use a low CPU please by all means tell me. And I’m grateful for what you all have suggested.
If you accidentally saved a 48kHz wav and your project is at 44.1kHz…
44.1kHz __________ 5,5 minutes
48 kHz____________ y minutes44.1y = 48 x 5,5
y = 5,986 minutes, which 0,986 [minutes] x 60 [seconds / minute] = 59 second!!, so y = 5 minutes 59 seconds!
OH Liquid, I’m about to open Podium Free and see your 48k problem. I think I DISCOVERED it.
I was checking out ASIO4ALL and noticed the “always resample audio from 44.1 to 48k” was check boxed in ASIO. So I JUST ‘un’checked that! If that was the problem then now I feel kind of stupid, and I do stand corrected.[although now, to make sure, I am going to unbounce and rebounce all tracks, then export to .wav and see.] I just hope that was it. Although I still have a strong feeling it was.
Also[another story]I recently introduced my bud to Podium. He loves it! He uses “Tab-It” and if you don’t pay it limits you by a LOT.[which is so stupid for a program that looks like someone was lazy on the GUI side….anyway…] He HATED it so much, but when I showed him Podium, FA3Amp, and Revitar he was very satisfied. He is still learning Podium but he still likes the program. And about Revitar&FA3Amp I know those 2 take a bit more CPU BUT they have good sound for an electric guitar..[Except the first preset on Revitar it seems one of the strings is out of tune…or maybe I’m wrong lol…just sounds like it]
Also those low CPU usage[yet really good] plugins make bouncing faster. Still thanks everyone.
Time to test. And thanks again. 😀
InfinitoarFor drums look up EZDrummer or Drumcore Free. I use Drumcore Free and haven’t used any other drum VST yet. And of course both drum VST’s are free. Maybe in the distant future I will buy Addictive Drums but that’s about it.
InfinitoarA favorite artist of mine by the name of “Celldweller” recently just made a song using his iPad.
So Zynewave if that doesn’t tell you something, I don’t know what will.
However, me and a lot of his other fans are waiting on the song to be released for free. And apparently he[Celldweller] made the song using his “voice” 😆 and a $8 app. But I think he is going to hold the details of what the app was until the song release.
But still the release of Mobium is entirely up to you.
Also Zynewave[sorry I have a habit of calling people by their username online than their real name… 😛 ] 2 things: If possible when setting a emoticon or qoute or anything up top can the cursor be BEHIND after you’ve clicked the icon? And- thanks to Podium and Liquid I met an old friend of mine and introduced him to Podium, he LOVES it and we’ve created a simple little 2 man band project together. So far we’re running Podium on x64bit Windows 7 Ultimate.[on my buds laptop] I don’t know how but I don’t really care 😆 and thanks again for Podium and IF Mobium is released of course you will still have my support on it.
InfinitoarYes DSK plugins[to me] are absolutely horrible. All of them. Look for alternate plugins if you can but avoid DSK Plugins at ALL costs. Doesn’t matter what DAW you use them in they are bad, and ALSO off key or out of tune. There is a topic with me commenting on the “Master Bounce” and some really steady yet good plugins were named in them. Also KVRAudio.com is another good place too look as well. If I remember right Liquid Project told me to steer towards C++ made plugins because they are best for Podium.
I hope that helped.
InfinitoarSame to all here on Zynewave.com!
Have a happy and safe holidays 🙄 😀 😆 😛 ❗
InfinitoarI have some things to say about this topic but I’m going to STFU, because:
1:-I own a iPod Touch 4G. And the reasons for owning it is more personal than anything else.
2:-I feel like what I say may be diverted somehow.
3:-Zynewave whatever you feel is necessary for the development of your business is your call.
4:-I’m not that “favored” with my honest opinions so I’ll still choose to STFU.
Good luck everyone with this and good luck Zynewave…..
InfinitoarI’m not a dev sadly. I’m just some “guy” with lots of good ideas for Podium. 🙂 However, I was wondering my next PC build will be having a x64bit O.S. , namely Windows Vista Ultimate, but I was wondering does this mean there is no x64bit Podium version on ANY x64bit version of Windows or just Windows 7? It may sound stupid to ask, but I figure it’s also good to know, just in case I have to have one HDD with a windows x32bit version and another with a x64bit version.
InfinitoarOk I checked Audacity and yes it by “default” saves the file at 44.1k So even if I render new tempo wavs it would still save it at the rate I haven’t touched, which is 44.1k. So as I said: The phantom voxes “may” be because of the shifted voxes. Who knows.
As far as the “plugins” I used, I use what is available to me. As you can tell[or anyone can tell] I don’t have spare cash to blow on good plugins so I use what I have, or what I can get my hands on. I’ve considered using nothing but cracked software but I’m too honest about doing that. I sift through KVR for plugins that have a high rating download them and then play around with them and the presets. [when I have time]Now I don’t know which plugins you all think are “buggy mediocre” plugins but if you would like to point out which ones are then I would not mind knowing. I know DSK’s Plugins are absolute trash because recently DSK Virtruso[or however it’s spelled] crapped out on me and now I hate all his plugins. AMVST Plugins I don’t think are bad either and have never caused me any problems. But if anyone has a opinion on what I should use then I’ll hear you out.
Infinitoar@Liquid
I’ll check the sample rate and see if the voxes were saved at a different sample rate, BUT if I remember correctly Audacity saves/opens up at a default rate of 44.1k And I don’t mess with that kind of stuff because I tend to leave it alone.[might mess myself up in other words… lol]
@those who told me to use certain plugins:
I will try them out but so far my favorite ones are those from AMVST. And usually I go to KVR and find the top rated plugins anyway, but I will check them out.

i think you have nailed your problem right there in that screenie – lots of ‘buggy as all hell’ synthedit and synthmaker plugins there. dsk stuff is awful for bringing down your host.
Yeah I have to agree with you, DSK’s Plugins piss me off. Only DSK Choir I have left, but if anyone has a freeware choir VST I’d love to check it out.
InfinitoarHuh… well, I’m confused.
Look at the dates, thc they are different. I decided to give you the file so you can look at the problem.
I noticed that you seem to have time-stretched the tracks provided for the remix from 134 to 140 bpm – which program did you use for this?
I used Audacity. Since it’s the only tempo freeware shifter I’ve always used in the past, I’ve decided to use it for this project too.
By the way, I’m afraid to say Liquid is right – this amount of SynthEdit plug-ins is guaranteed to make any sequencer cry hard. I had more crashes in 30 minutes than I’ve experienced in the whole 3+ years I’ve used Podium!
I know Liquid is right. And I know the more plugins you use the greater the strain on the CPU and program you are using. I just didn’t expect it to crash, which really upset me.[And for anyone else for the last time: I ADMIT it was my fault that I did not save before rendering.]
Anyway thanks thc, for the attempt. Maybe the stretched vocals caused the mishap, or bug who knows. I know while bounced if I increase the ending then I start to see the “ghost voxes”. But even if I don’t and the project says and “shows” the song ends at 5:30 it “renders” the ending at 5:59. Maybe it’s a tempo shift bug. Because come to think of it, this has never happened until I’ve decided to use “shifted” vocal tempo.[from Audacity] In every other project I’ve just used the default vocals with nothing “shited” tempo wise. Hmmmm….. ❓
