ZynewaveKeymasterTry to create a project with Hybrid 3 in Podium Free. Save the project, exit Podium Free, open Podium Demo and then load the same project. Does Hybrid 3 then work?

Samplerate conversion is something I’m working on, but it is not yet supported in Podium.
ZynewaveKeymasterCan you provide more details? Does it crash, can you open the editor, is there any sound?
It’s possible there is problem with multiprocessing of the plugin. Try disabling the ‘multiprocessing’ option in the Podium engine preferences and test again.
ZynewaveKeymasterThe links seem fine to me, all three of them 🙂
ZynewaveKeymasterBeta8 is now uploaded, and that is hopefully the last beta before I’ll release 3.2.5.
I have been experimenting with sample-rate conversion, and I chose to integrate the r8brain-free-src library in Podium. It is created by Aleksey Vaneev of Voxengo. Link:
https://github.com/avaneev/r8brain-free-srcI needed SRC to complete the newly added support for custom metronome sounds. Now the metronome sound files will play at their original pitch no matter which sample-rate you use in your arrangements. So far the metronome is the only place where I use the SRC, but in future Podium versions I’ll work on supporting SRC for resampling of sound files, and on sound events placed in arrangements.
ZynewaveKeymasterI’ve updated to beta 7 and both splash logo and “about” section show “3.2.5”.
Is it just an oversight?It doesn’t show the beta number, if that is what you’re missing. The only clue to beta version number is in the filename.
And any chance of fixing the scalpel tool in the audio editor? At the moment, if works just like the pencil tool.
That is on purpose, as I couldn’t find an obvious alternative use for the scalpel tool in the audio editor. What would you want the scalpel tool to do?
ZynewaveKeymasterIf you are looking for the actual dll files, then they should be located in:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST2\Zynewave
Unless you selected a different installation folder for the plugins in the Podium installer.
In the Podium Preferences dialog, on the Plugins page, you should enter the “C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST2” as one of the scan folders.
ZynewaveKeymasterHi Nicholas, thanks for alerting me on the XP issue. I’ve uploaded a new beta7 where this should be fixed.
ZynewaveKeymasterHi Hermu. The release of new Podium versions has once again been delayed due to me having to take on other jobs. I will be adding another free year of upgrades to all existing customers once 3.2.5 is released. I released another beta version today, and I only have one feature I would like to work on before finalizing the 3.2.5 release.
ZynewaveKeymasterAt long last I’ve wrapped up a new beta6. The changelog so far:
- Added ‘Metronome sound file folder’ setting to the Preferences dialog. If a folder is specified, Podium will search this folder for sound files and use those instead of the built-in metronome sound. The sound file names must end with “1.wav”, “2.wav”, “3.wav” etc. The last numbered sound file will be repeated for any beats above that number.
- Added ‘Assign Tracks with Events at Edit Cursor’ and ‘Assign Tracks with Events in Loop Range’ to the track tag options menu (right-click a tag button in the track tag bar). These commands are helpful when you are working with a large number of tracks in your project template, and need to quickly focus on only the tracks currently playing.
- More detailed error message is shown when trying to import incompatible x64/x86 VST plugins.
- Added ‘Paste’ button to the zReverb editor and made the clipboard shared across all zReverb instances.
- Fix: The Podium file browser no longer shows system/hidden directories and files.
- Fix: Layout of some dialogs did not adjust correctly to the Windows DPI scaling setting.
My five year old Windows7 development PC had for some time shown signs of instability, and a few weeks ago the power-supply short-circuited, so I thought it was time to upgrade. I’m now developing Podium on a new Windows 10 PC with the latest Microsoft developer tools. The old PC is repaired and repurposed as a test PC for Windows7 compatibility. Windows XP support should still be intact in the new Podium builds.

If you go to the ‘My Downloads’ page you can download the installer again.
ZynewaveKeymasterMy previous post was based on the assumption that the v3.2.5 beta download was an installer instead of a replacement for Podium.exe in a v3.2.4 installation.
Thanks for the feedback. I have written a Beta-installation.txt file that I will include in future beta zip files, to avoid confusion.
Which files are NOT compatible between v3.2.4 and v3.2.5 beta? For example, Podium.ini, PluginDatabase_x64.pod and project files (.pod)?
There should be no incompatibilies between 3.2.4 and 3.2.5. There may be some new Podium.ini setup settings in 3.2.5, so if you go back to 3.2.4, then these settings will be reset to default next time you start 3.2.5.
