Finally managed to play around with it today!
Here’s a cheesy little demo I whipped up (no other instruments/effects or processing):

I’ve put the patches here (if Frits doesn’t mind):

…And I must say it really is a pain because of its high CPU-usage at the moment. 😕

Thanks for the patches. I’ve put some of them into v0.23, which is now available. I’ve also worked a little on CPU optimization, and so far I’ve managed to reduce it by 35% compared to v0.22. Please try out v0.23, and let me know how much further you would want the CPU optimized, before it is acceptable.

Other changes in v0.23:
Level meter next to the volume dial.
Two new monophonic mode options in the voices menu.
Key Tracking option for the modulation sources.

Hi. The cursor position used to display a mm:ss reading at the top of the screen, which I found really useful and referred to constantly. This appears to have been replaced with a % value relative to to event ends. Is the time option still available in preferences etc? Is it possible to make it an option?

The second line is removed with the new slimmer default toolbar height. If you increase the edit toolbar height the second line will eventually appear.

I may look at a MIDI learn feature later on. Something I can do is to set up default MIDI cc’s for all dials. I don’t know if that would be useful to anyone?

Yes that would be useful 🙂 .

I’ve mapped out all dials to CC numbers. They are numbered from CC16 and upwards in the same order as they appear in the VST parameter list. CC32-33 and CC64-66 are skipped as these are commonly used CC numbers for specific purposes.

Some exceptions:
Main volume is on CC7
Portamento is on CC5
Bend range is on CC14
Voices is on CC15

Coming up in v0.23

errrrmmmmmm….. Podium with bundled instruments ready to go out of the box.

Are we talkin default Podium track/song on opening here? You know ala Reaper, Computer Muzys, Reason and others?

Would Frits tolerate such a thing? Kick it to a new thread or burn the idea at the stake right here?

I’m abandoning the idea of bundling it with Podium. The plugin would add 1.5MB to the Podium download, which is far more than the 150KB for each of the zPlugins. I think it would be better to create a separate subforum for the plugin, with its own dedicated download topic. The zip download could contain a Podium demo project, which used Nucleum and zPlugins. This will also allow me to get rid of the archaic demo projects that currently is included in the Podium installer.

Oh, and for knob creation, look no further than KnobMan 🙂

I had noticed this utility a while ago, but thanks for the reminder 🙂 . I have now used it to create some Podium style dials instead of the default Synthmaker knobs. I must remember to donate to the creator of Knobman if Nucleum gets released to the public.

The screenshot on page 1 is updated again. The dials/knobs are now color coded to better illustrate how the oscillators are modulating each other and routed to the filters. To make the colors stand out, the background is now dark instead of the previous silver.

Nucleum 0.21 is uploaded.
