ZynewaveDo you plan translations of this program and its guide ?
Localization of Podium is on the plan, but I think it is some months away. Gotta write the English manual before even thinking about translations. But if you’re still around at that time, I may be interested in your help.
I’ll keep on feeding back for suggestions in the right topic
Looking forward to it. 🙂
ZynewaveHi Zacchino,
Thanks for your comments. Much appreciated.
How many guys are working on this software ? (pure curiosity – imo the less, the better).
Yours truly is the only person involved in this company. You can read a bit more on the contact page.
The price is very low (maybe too low at my taste but I won’t complain on this point ^^). The only thing missing is a marketing and a communication plan, but I’m sure it’ll come with the time.
I agree the price is way too low, compared to the amount of work (15 years and counting) that I have invested in it. But the price is set to match the alternative solutions that are on the market today. I have not put much effort into marketing. I’m currently working on completing the Podium Guide, after which I will do more advertising.

ZynewaveZynewaveThe Project section of the guide has been rewritten. There is also a new ‘getting started’ page under the index page.
ZynewaveHi lalo,
I think the ‘apply effects in the audio editor’ item on the future plan is covering this feature request. I’ll get there, I promise. 🙂

ZynewaveThe MIDI in channel filter decides which events should be recorded on the track. But the recorded note events are not stored with MIDI channel information. The MIDI output channel specified in the device mapping on the track decides what channel the note events should be output to. If the ‘orchestral’ plugin is multitimbral, you should import it as a multitimbral plugin in the project wizard. This should create 16 MIDI channel mappings, in addition to the audio mappings.
Zynewavehave you thought about approaching developers of freeware and asking if they would like some of their plugs bundled with the plugin demo download?
I haven’t contacted any developers regarding this yet. First on the list is completing the Podium guide, and after that, doing more example projects. At that time I may contact other developers, and I’ll be sure to check out BetaBugs too 🙂
I’ve signed up for the new http://www.synthmaker.com tool, which currently is in beta but is showing great promise. With this it will be relatively easy for me to create small softsynths and effects.
The incomplete guide is also the reason why I have not contacted e.g. CM yet.
ZynewaveHi Chris,
Good points. The next guide update will include a ‘getting started’ page, with very short descriptions on how to get to the ‘quick setup’ button in the wizard, what to do with the MIDI/Audio interfaces dialog etc., and how to start a recording session. Hopefully this will go a long way.
The next obvious thing that the Podium demo lacks, are self-contained demo projects. Meaning, projects that don’t require the user to download specific plugins. I plan to create some simple plugins that can be bundled with the demo projects.
