Malcolm JacobsonAll of the tracks in the template load, but the plugin itself does not.
There’s a screenshot of the plugin/template here:
http://www.zynewave.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2167
When you open the plugin you can route the 16 instruments to separate stereo outputs. The template used to load the plugin with all of the routing set up.
If the plugin import process would set up the 16 MIDI inputs and 32 audio outputs as part of the device definition, it would negate part of the need for the template.

Beta5 is up. I delayed the release because I found a flaw in the plugin import, while trying a demo of the Rocket sidechain compressor. I ended up doing an overall revision of the plugin import and the Create New Project page. I would appreciate if some of you could try to create a new project and import your plugins with beta5, and see if your plugins are still imported correctly. I’d also appreciate comments on the new plugin naming convention.
Hi Frits,
I did a brief test and it seems to work OK with my plugins. I own the Rocket compressor, and I can see the sidechain in the list now.
Unfortunately the Multi version of Garritan Personal Orchestra 4 still imports with only 2 outputs. I made a Track Template a while ago that included the 16 MIDI inputs and 16 stereo outputs, but it doesn’t work in 2.27b5, or 2.26 for that matter. Do I have to create a new template, or is there some way to get the import to recognise that the plugin has 16 stereo outputs?
Cheers,
Malcolm.
Malcolm JacobsonHi Frits,
Thanks for fixing the save issue. Works fine in beta 4.
I’ve been playing around with the timing adjustment trying to understand how it works and it looks pretty powerful. Good to hear that you’re going to write a manual entry for it. 🙂
One thing I’ve noticed is that the editor has an “Undo Timing Adjustments” option after you’ve applied the timing, but no option to Redo. Is it possible to implement Redo so we can listen to before and after in the editor window?
Cheers,
Malcolm.

Check if you have cleared the “use time stamps from driver” option for your MIDI input in the interfaces dialog.
Yes, I had. Clearing the check box fixed the problem. Thanks!
Found one bug with beta 3 – each time I open my test project the Time Signature of the Metronome is reset to 4/16, even though I created and saved the project at 4/4.
Cheers,
Malcolm.

• Fix: Adding child tracks to a group track that had a plugin instrument assigned would wrongly create the child track as an audio track.
Thanks Frits, that works pretty well. As a future, enhancement, it would be great if the MIDI input worked with the Child Tracks too. 8)
In other news, I’ve started getting a half-bar delay on any MIDI I record since version 226. If I play a kick drum on each beat of a 4/4 bar, it plays back 1/2 a beat late and I have to quantize all the notes. Has anybody else noticed this?
Cheers,
Malcolm.

Automatic creation of sound events for realtime bounce is something I have on my todo list. It’s going to be fixed as part of one of the next track-related releases.
Great. 🙂

Workaround to get real-time bounce recording working: …
I seem to be having this problem in 2.26. In order to get Realtime Bounce working I have to create a blank item in the track by doing an offline render first.
Is Realtime Bounce working properly in 2.26 on your system?
Cheers,
Malcolm.

If you need an initial number of tracks, isn’t it sufficient that you have the track setting in the “new arrangement” dialog?
This works for the initial arrangement, but doesn’t work when you want to add multiple tracks to an existing arrangement. I would really like an option to “Insert N new tracks”.
I would also like the ability to select multiple tracks.
The addition of these two features would make a great improvement to the workflow, IMO.
Cheers,
Malcolm.

Are there any other common performance parameters that should be included?
I thought Podium used to automatically record any MIDI data a controller sent (back around v 2.04)?
Is it possible to have an option for this?
Cheers,
Malcolm.
Malcolm JacobsonAt the moment Podium only provides supports for composite audio tracks.
I would like to see support for composite MIDI tracks added at some stage.
Cheers,
Malcolm.

Let me know if you find issues with color changes and UI resizing.
Here’s how beta 8 looks on my XP machine:
The selected track header displays as black, so I can’t read the text.
The show/hide buttons in the mixer all appear white when not active.
The tick box in the Inspector appears white when selected.
Cheers,
Malcolm.

If you truly have problems with lost preset data, then please give me detailed instructions on how to reproduce this.
I haven’t been able to find a reliable repro. It seems to be a random, fairly rare thing. I will put it down to ghosts in the machine.
Cheers,
Malcolm.
