Perhaps you could keep two setup files, with the only difference that one setup file has all the interfaces deselected. You can then switch between setups by loading or dragging a setup file onto the Podium window, and thereby enable/disable the interfaces.
cool i will do this and just put podium in 2 different locations and make a shortcut for each!
yeah i use that already… but some projects i would like to just be able to disable them at my own command….
right I understand now, having read that, this is about the only thing with podium that seems unintuitive…

something like an opacity option for ‘piano roll opacity’, like the one that exists for ‘track color opacity’ would remedy this nicely me thinks . 💡
I’ve added a “black/white key intensity” percentage setting to the piano roll properties dialog. Setting it to 100% will paint solid black/white keys. Setting it to 0% will paint with the colors of the current version.
nice work :)… when that is done i can finally unleash my purple and green colour scheme on the world muhahaha :twisted:. I managed to still make it quite easy on the eye though.

Due to the 32-bit data size, the maximum amount of memory that Podium can allocate is 2GB. There is a possibility to make it go up to 3GB, but I don’t think that is the problem as you mentioned you had the crash on one of your machines with 2GB or less.
Have you set up the /3GB option in boot.ini on your machine with 3GB RAM?
tried it, but no luck. i am trying to find a way of replicating it for you where you won’t have to wait around for half an hour for it to crash! the crash certainly isn’t random – i have one file where it will happen every time if i bounce in the same order of segment sizes 4 times in a row for instance.

Ok I will have a look. The usage figure does seem to get to a certian amount then eventually hover around a certain rather large figure. i was wondering whether maybe it was something to do with an adressing limitation of 32 bit (I.e that 32 bit can only access up to 4gb of memory/space)? And maybe although I wasn’t using a full 4gb of memory perhaps on subsequent renders it carries on allocating new adresses rather than clearing the register and reusing the original space? But to be honest I don’t fully know what i am talking about, i’m just guessing! 😕
oh yeah, if i have two seperate instances of podium up and rendering, then only one of them crashes when the crash happens. the one that survives can carry on rendering to completion as normal.
hmm i tried to make a test one where i just bounced a rediculous amount of wavs but it just gets about 1/3 way and stops responding which is a different response to what i need… maybe i can find another way to reproduce it
here is two i made earlier:
dark dnb style track – was after something spor sounding – maximum kick drum and bass (you literally have to filter the 2nd harmonic out of the bass then sandwhich the kick drum where the bass harmonic was)… i made too many errors in my engineering though…
dreamcore – – i slammed this one through the compressors and left the filters open as i spend a lot of time in sound preperation eqing the high end, only to filter it out so thought it would be nice to let some highend through for once.. i fixed the engineering of the bass from the last one so there is more attack and less sustain on the low end but still lots of sustain on the top end without the two seperate bass streams going out of phase through the long fx chains. not sure what i was thinking with that compression tho! didnt spend much time on mixing, was more bothered with technical aspects in other areas.
so hopefully next track i make will have the best bits of what i learnt out of the last two tracks, but with none of the errors/experimenting. the production is getting incredibly hard to do what i want :(…
Good idea, I would certianly welcome something like this… Sometimes I save several versions of a file just in case of corruption (which is rare). My folders get very cluttered.
ok i will try and set one up just with the free zynewave plugins and some small audio files… hmm i have another problem you could try to reproduce as well where if i am adjusting level automation whilst looping sometimes it will ignore the level automation, and i think even go louder than the original source (i.e above -0)…
lack of superfluos features is partly why I use podium in the first place…. no bloatware. i think many cubase users may find cubase has features they simply don’t need or use too.

opeth 😀 … saw them a couple of months ago! was awesome. I love their intracacies….. still life is still my favourite album of theirs.
yay mouse wheel fix, that thing was scaring the bejeesus out of me and driving me nuts! that was the only thing that ever crashed my podium so now it will be 100% rock solid 😀
good stuff 🙂
