@ Fritz – I wish you would have sent a email notice about the competion
– i just found out about it myself yesterday.
In the “Competitions” announcement topic there is an explanation on how you can get notified by email.
I’m posting about it on as many boards as i can to let others know about it with a link back.
Hope that is okay with you, as i don’t have time to wait for your reply.
Post away. It would be nice to have more people visit this forum.
Once you have bounced a track the first time, any subsequent effects you add will be inserted after the bounce point. Check that the bounce selector is placed after (i.e. above) the zReverb plugin in the effect chain. If not, just drag the bounce button above the zReverb and redo the bounce.
Btw. you won’t gain anything by bypassing effects that are bounced. Once bounce playback is activated, any plugins that are below the bounce point in the chain are automatically bypassed/muted. You can enable the “unload plugins when bounced” option, if you furthermore want the plugins to be removed from memory when they are bounced.

1.why not to make positioning of cursor with single left click in select tool mode
You can do it with a single left-click in the timeline ruler. In all the other timeline regions you can do it with middle mouse button click.
2. fx – would like to drag them between tracks.
That is on my todo list.
would like to have fx panel(per fx) with presets
Not sure what you mean here. If you click the checkmark button next to an effect in the inspector rack, the lists in the inspector will show all the presets and parameters that are available for that effect.
midi -ticks per quarter?
16384.
seems like no internal resampling -right? -but not a big trouble..
Right. On the todo list.

Frits,
Would moving to Win 7 64-bit involve new hardware in addition to the OS or is your machine capable enough of handling Win 7 64-bit? How much does Microsoft charge for the upgrade version of Windows 7 64-bit in Denmark?JP
My PC should handle a Win7 upgrade, but I still need my Vista 32-bit install to be able to test Podium on that platform. Rather than wasting time on purchasing a second harddrive and setting up a dual boot system, I would prefer to buy a new cheap PC.
I only have OEM versions of Windows, so I can’t buy the cheaper Win7 upgrade version. A full Win7 version costs about 250US$ in Denmark.
When I add support for multi-selection of tracks, it should be easy to add a link fader feature. Supporting configuration of limited ranges and inverse action is more complicated, so I doubt I’ll implement that in the first round.
You can only link MIDI controllers to plugins, if the plugin supports it. If the plugin has a MIDI learn feature, then it supports it. If you see the knobs move in the plugin editor, then Podium should be able to record these movements. Put the track in record mode, and start recording.
Before I start to check out specific plugins, could you please check that the problems you are seeing are still present with the latest Podium Free 2.40 release.
I’ve now tested this and found the reason why the Podium animations stop. It seems that xt2 is occasionally interfering with the windows messages Podium uses to keep the UI timer alive :?. I’ll try with a different solution, to avoid conflicts with xt2.

It’s good enough for me. The only suggestion I have that’d make it quicker to use for me would be shortcut keys for the “+” button menu. I don’t know what the term is (shortcut mnemonics or something?)… I’m talking about the underlined letters for each menu option.
Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen those used anywhere in Podium, so it’s probably not a quick thing for you to implement. Well, it’s just dandy as is! 😉
There are some menus in Podium that use the underline shortcuts, but Windows will only show them if the menu is opened with an Alt+key shortcut. You could try with Alt+E for the edit menu. Same thing with dialog boxes, where the shortcut underlining only appears once you press the Alt key.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Considering the modest amount of traffic this forum is currently seeing, I have my doubts that a competition topic that requires a lot of time investment is going to generate a lot of competition entries.
Today I have released Podium Free 2.40, and set up a new April 2011 competition. The competion topic is simple. All you need to do is write a number :wink:. I’ll consider more elaborate competition topics when more people start to join the forum and the competitions.

For experienced users, it’s certainly going to be useful if the “+” button remembers the last snapshot’s settings. As a personal example, since seeing what you did with the default snapshots, I’ll most likely only adjust snapshot #5 (default vertical zoom) and never have to worry about zooming in manually. Those three sizes are perfectly sufficient.
2.42 is now released. I ended up with making the “+” button always create a full snapshot. As you mentioned, new users would otherwise not realize this feature if the “+” button just creates copies of the last default partial zoom snapshot. Instead, I added four new shortcut commands to the “+” button right-click menu, for adding single option snapshots. I hope that is acceptable for quick setup of snapshots.
