    – If a track doesn’t have any effects, the bounce track is created on the parent track instead of the selected track, and nothing is rendered.

    Fixed in the new beta8. It was a last minute code change that I forgot to test.

    – Enabling bouncing on a track doesn’t show the B button on the mixer strip, so you can’t see its state there.

    The new Bounce button in the effect chain should show the bounce state. Unless the effect chain is hidden, the redundant B button is hidden to save vertical space. Isn’t it enough with the bounce indicator in the effect chain?

    – Another one, not related to 2.36: Using Ctrl+C&V on a track in the mixer doesn’t copy the track (even though it’s set as active selection in the mixer) whenever a sequence or tempo/marker event is selected as well. It copies the sequence (which only has inactive selection) instead.

    I’ll fix that.

    Beta7:

    Bounce enabling a track will now create a dedicated bounce track in the effect chain, instead of enabling bounce mode on an existing effect track. The bounce track will show up with a “Bounce” button in the chain, which can be clicked to open the bounce menu. The bounce extraction point can be set by dragging the bounce track up or down in the chain.

    MIDI channel reset messages are now only sent to MIDI interface channels that have previously been used. This greatly reduces the total number of reset messages sent on playback start.

    Try the new 2.36 beta7. The reset messages are now only sent to MIDI channels that previously have received MIDI messages.

    Podium sends the “all notes off”, “reset all controllers” and “all sound off” control change messages to each MIDI channel. That’s 8 ports * 16 channels * 9 bytes = 1152 bytes. Quite a lot when the MIDI transmission speed is about 3K bytes per second. The MIDI server operates at a high priority, so that can explain why it is stealing time from the audio driver. I could optimize this, so that only the channels that are actually used on the tracks will be reset.

    Can you get rid of the crackles by increasing the ASIO buffer size?

    I searched, and I assume you mean this discussion:

    http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=276414&start=0

    It appears the crash also occurs with Reaper, and that the developer is looking into the issue.

    I’ve noted that down for a future update to the curve editor.

    Which Podium version number, and which VAZ Plus version number?

    I’ve previously experienced stability issues with VAZ Modular, so perhaps VAZ Plus has the same issues.

    If you can reproduce the crash with other plugins than VAZ Plus, then it is likely a Podium problem. Otherwise it is likely to be a problem with the plugin. Try to replace your VAZ Plus with another instrument on the track, and repeat the automation procedure you used to make VAZ Plus crash.

    Beta6:

    I have been looking into improving the meter animation in the mixer. Previously the meters would freeze when you were scrolling or zooming. There also was a problem with “old” meter values being displayed shortly when scrolling previously hidden mixer strips into view. This is now changed so that meters will keep animating no matter what.

    To make this change, I ended up revising some of my old UI code for realtime animation of the play cursor, meters and other indicators. These animations would freeze in previous versions, when you for example dragged/resized windows or opened a menu in a plugin editor.

    I would appreciate if you would test this new beta with some of your old projects, and check if the UI is responsive and repaints properly during playback, especially at high CPU loads.

    I’ll get back to the other issues reported in this topic later this weekend.

    Use the “restore default editor profiles” command in the setup menu.

    @ omar misa

    Thanks for the files. The crash was caused by the “Show bypass buttons” option, which you have enabled. Let me know if you still experience crashes with the new beta that I’m going to upload within a day or two.

    Can’t reproduce the crash here. Can you give me some more details about how you provoke the crash?

    In your screenshot I can see you were dragging the zoom slider. Did you drag from below or above the point where it crashed?

    – From above.

    – Just one so far.

    Here is the project file which crashes (a work in progress). I have limited technical abilities thus struggle to give you more details.

    Thanks for your time.

    Thanks for the project file. I still can’t get it to crash though, so I expect it is related to something in your Podium setup. Could you please send me your Podium.ini file (email: infoATzynewaveDOTcom). You can find the file by using the “explore setup folder” command in the setup menu. I really would like to find this bug.

    Does the zoom crash happen also when playback is stopped, and the power button in the transport toolbar is off?

    I’ve grabbed a shortcut to this topic, and will examine the latency issues at some point. Right now I’ve got my hands full with the mixer update.
