ZynewaveKeymasterYes!, instant crash, fortunately, when I run it in debug mode.
Apparently it’s a long time since I tried using the MIDI metronome 😳
Fix will be available in 1.02
Thanks for the help.
ZynewaveKeymasterOk, that is very helpful. I’ll look into it tomorrow.
Have you enabled any MIDI output interfaces in the interfaces dialog?
ZynewaveKeymasterI assume it’s the audio processing of the metronome that crashes. Just to make sure; could you try to disable the ‘output to audio interface’ option, and see if this crashes?
If not, then enable the audio output and disable ‘output to MIDI interface’. Crash?
If it crashes, then try to set the base channel back to 1 and disable ‘stereo’. Crash?Sorry for all the trouble, but these tests will help me to narrow down the area of the code where the crash occurs.
ZynewaveKeymasterDoes the metronome work (outputs sound) up until the crash? Is there any sound distortion at the moment the crash happens? Have you changed the default configuration for the metronome in the preferences dialog?
ZynewaveKeymasterAny chance of this finding it’s way onto the list??
Sure, I’ll add it to the list right now, although I don’t consider this an important feature.

Before studying your suggestions I wanted to finish with the 1.01 release. With that out of the way a few hours ago, I have now considered your suggestions. They are all good suggestions, so I don’t have much to say, except that they are now included in the Future Development topic.

ZynewaveKeymasterHi Banjostar,
Glad you like Podium.
Doing changes to selected notes (length and so on) rather than doing it one at a time. And I have a hard time seeing the grid in the piano roll.
A lot of users have mentioned the selected notes editing, so I’ll add a higher priority to this. The latest 1.01 release has improved the visibility of the grid lines.

ZynewaveKeymasterHi Ruben,
Is Podium coming to the Mac platform?
Sorry to disappoint you, but it won’t happen this year. I do have some experience with OSX programming, but I have chosen to concentrate on adding to the Podium feature set instead.
ZynewaveKeymaster- VST parameter automation.
- Various minor improvements.
ZynewaveKeymasterare you saying that in the very next version of podium, it will do the same thing than in (for example) fruitloops, by giving you a list of native vst parameters ?
Yes.
for the moment the problem is that (naturally) when you press record and tweak a knob in the vst editor it don’t do a thing in podium if the CC isn’t registered. would the 1.01 update change that ?
1.01 will allow you to automate VST parameters using the editors/mixer in Podium. Support for recording movements of knobs in VST editors is coming in a later update.
ZynewaveKeymasterHi noswing,
The VST format unfortunately does not allow a host to request what MIDI parameters a plugin supports. Therefore these need to be entered manually in Podium, with the help of the MIDI documentation for the plugin. If you use the project wizard to import plugin definition files from the library, these definition files will already contain configurations for MIDI parameters. Not all plugins support MIDI parameters. The Pro52 does, but I have not yet created a definition file for it. You can see a picture of the CC numbers here.
The next v1.01 update will support native VST parameters. These parameters are created automatically when you import a plugin dll file into Podium.

ZynewaveKeymasterThe preorder offer has expired. This poll was before the v1.00 release.
Yes the VAT can be confusing. The Euro price excl. VAT is 72€ which should match the 90 US$.
ZynewaveKeymasterWhat technology (api/sdk) did you use the produce such slick graphics…is it a well known one…or is it something home grown?
I use http://www.paintlib.de for graphics file loading (the bitmaps you can load in the project settings), and for primitive stuff like blurred resizing of bitmaps etc. Everything else is homegrown.
ZynewaveKeymasterThe visual spacing between each piano key a-a#-b-c-c#…is not even on the piano roll
The keyboard is laid out as a real piano, with equal spacing between the white keys. Are you saying you prefer it to be spaced evenly between each note? If so, then I could add a mode to the keyboard region properties that would allow you to select your preferred layout.
In Rearrange mode I would like to be able to move all / selected notes around the screen using the arrow keys.
I plan on using the arrow keys for navigating the notes. Maybe use ctrl/shift+arrow keys to displace the selected notes with the current snap quantize value. + and – keys could be used to adjust velocity. Add a few more key shortcuts such as a key to insert a note, and then we are not far away from having step sequencing implemented.
