ZynewaveIf you send me the project file through the contact form, I’ll see if I can locate the problem.
ZynewaveHi, thanks for reporting this. The link is now fixed. The entire website was updated a week ago, so there may be a few links that are broken.
ZynewaveIn order to post a reply on this thread for instance, it is not enough to login from the menu, but it is needed to login again (second time) from the “+” sign, right before trying to post…
Tried three different browsers, but can’t see any bug. If you use the browser back button to go back to this topic, after visiting the account/login page, you need to refresh the page.
ZynewaveOne new item on this forum caught my eye the other day. As we are titled ‘Participants’ when we post, I happened to notice that Frits is listed as ‘Keymaster.’ What was that movie I’m trying to think f in which the lines go something to this effect:
Can’t recall the quote, but there is a keymaster in The Matrix. The Keymaster/Participants roles are defined by the bbPress forum software. Perhaps some day I’ll look into customizing this, so that we get a ‘Podium Licensee’ role like we had in the old forum.
ZynewaveIs it specific VST instruments that are problematic? Try replacing with a different VSTi on the track and see if this results in the same gap at the start.
ZynewaveIf you open the mixer, or the rack panel in the track inspector, you’ll see a chain of ‘effect tracks’ for each source track. Each effect track can hold a single effect plugin. They are like normal tracks, but their track lane are by default hidden since there is no need to place events on the timeline for effects.
Does it fix the problem if you disable and reenable the bounce mode on the track that does not bounce at the beginning?
ZynewaveIt’s possible that the hidden bounce sound event has been displaced. This can happen when doing certain segment edits, and it is an issue I intend to revise in a future update. To fix it, disable the bounce mode on the track, and then reenable bounce mode. This will recreate the bounce sound event. You can verify if the bounce event is placed properly by right-clicking the ‘Bounce’ effect track in the track inspector rack, and then disable the ‘Hide Track Lane’ option.
ZynewaveHi,
If you don’t have any plugins loaded then it’s likely an ASIO driver issue. Try installing the asio4all.com driver and see if that works. Often this driver performs better than the native drivers supplied by some sound cards.
ZynewaveThanks, and thanks for being the first to test the new forum 🙂

I also noticed that when I switch presets, the motorized faders don’t update to reflect the setting. Would there be an issue with locking faders to the actual parameter settings instead of the recorded automation data, and then having recording optional?
The parameter track faders are locked to the value on the track, which does not necessarily correspond to unrecorded edits made in the plugin. I think what you really want is a way to edit plugin parameters without having them assigned to parameter tracks. This is something I originally planned as an extension to the current MCU support in Podium. Currently you can only adjust gain/pan/parameter tracks. This could be extended with the use of some of the mode buttons on MCU, to include bus sends and plugin parameters. However, since there are very few users that will find this useful, I fear it is going to be years before I find time to add this support.

Yes, but does it matter if it’s toggle on/off rather than hold for on?
That could be made optional, but I’m afraid that I won’t have time to revise this behaviour in the near future. There are tons of other features that needs attention first.
ZynewaveYou mean you would want the faders to stop moving at all when the track is in record mode? I am not keen on that idea. The benefit with touch-sensing faders is that you are able to grab the moving faders to start adjusting the parameter value on the fly.
ZynewaveZynewaveOn the todo list. Currently you can drag files from a Windows explorer onto Podium, but not from the Podium file browser onto a Windows explorer (or any plugins that support it).
ZynewaveUnfortunately the file contains all zeroes, so there is nothing that can be salvaged.
Most likely, the file got corrupted because of harddisk write caching. Even though Podium has finished saving the file and the file is closed successfully with the Windows API, harddisks still have their own internal write caching for speed optimization. If power is lost before the harddisk finishes its write cycle, the file will get corrupted. I’ve now modified the Podium code, so that a disk cache flush is forced after Podium has finished writing a project/sound file, and before the temporary backup file is deleted.
