Ok then, let’s discuss how this should work. What options would you want in the preferences/metronome page?

If you decide to start charging for updates from a specified point on…
This is not something I have planned. But if we look far into the future, then maybe some day Podium will have gained so many features (and price increases) that it would make sense to create gold/platinum/whatever editions. I hope I can avoid this, but future sales will show if this is a necessary step. If that happens, then existing customers will get a free license upgrade to the new “pro” edition.
Hi Bryan,
I have added you to the VIP list. Thanks for your support.

don’t current registered users get free updates even if it changes? If I remember correctly? ❓
If what changes? All current users will get V2 free of charge.
Hi Bryan,
Once you have created a new project with all devices set up as you want them, use the “Save project as template” menu command (click the menu button in panel at the upper left corner). The template project will then be available as a submenu of the “New Project” menu. Selecting the template when you want to start on a new project will then skip the plugin scanning and device mapping preparations.
My bad. The error message contains the plugin name only if the crash occurs when loading the plugin in an arrangement.
If you remove the Monkeyage plugin, will the scan then complete?
Is there a website for this Spectral Monkeyage? It seems the official site is gone.

that quantizing feature you describe sounds like a very cool thing. will it be realtime?
I’m not sure what you mean by realtime. In addition to the existing “Quantize” edit menu command there will be an additional “Quantize…” command which opens a dialog where you can set amount of swing, strength, etc. There will be a “Preview” option like in the beat slice dialog. I’m not talking about groove templates. That will come later.
Btw. I just checked the code, and the name and filename of the plugin causing the crash should be mentioned in the error message.
What was the last plugin displayed in the scan dialog? If you temporarily remove this plugin, does the illegal action dialog still pop up?
I have now implemented extended support for mouse wheel. Using the wheel over the timeline region will zoom in/out. Using the wheel over sliders will scroll the slider. This means you can scroll the horizontal timeline slider without having to hold the shift key. The wheel also works over the zoom sliders in the editors. Coming up in release 1.82.
And will there be an upgrade charge and if so what will the price be.
At the moment I have not planned to charge for updates. I may introduce an add-on license if I develop more zPlugins or if I license dither/SRC/time-stretch technologies from third parties.
I do however intend to gradually increase the license price for new customers, as the Podium feature-set grows. No date set for this either.
