Here’s something I found: During time-stretching a MIDI event, the ‘preview’ of its contents looks as if the notes changed octave when you stretch it by certain factors (seems to depend on the notes and event length; arrangement vertical zoom doesn’t matter) – GIF animation (100 KB).
Fixed.
Possibly due to the shadows, there’s a tiny delay added to some operations like switching editor profiles or zoom snapshots. Resizing of tracks is also a little less smooth than before. As always, I have a perfectly adequate graphics card, but it seems it doesn’t get called to help.
I think this is due to the alpha blending that I introduced to the curve sequences, and not the event drop shadows. Unless you also see the slow performance in the 2.32 release?
In the new beta4 I have made some changes to the way that the automation curve is drawn. It no longer uses alpha blending, so let me know if you still see a slower performance.

No problems mate, any plans on any forms of live performance capabilities for Podium?
Such as?
I don’t think any of the features I’m planning for the next few months can be considered as targeting live performance.
I do plan to support multi-touch input, once it becomes more commonly available.
ZynewaveKeymasterI tried Kontakt Player 4.05, but I’m not sure I know how to set this up. I added another channel in the output section, but when I select any of the “unassigned” outputs there is no sound and the meter in the Kontakt mixer is darkened as if to indicate it is disabled. I managed to get sound on all 4 aux channels (up to channel 11+12). Do I need to do anything else in Kontakt to enable output to the unassigned channels? Perhaps this is a limitation of the Player?
I then tried the NI Battery 3 demo, and there I had no problems getting sound on all 32 output channels. Also no problems with: IL Drumaxx on all 22 channels. SampleTank2 on all 32 channels. ARIA player on all 32 channels. Drumazon on all 24 channels.

Any plans for a drum sampler? I have 100’s of single hit samples and it would be great to be able to use them in the drum maps.
I have lots of ideas for a drum sampler, so I hope to find time to work on that at some point. Currently I have quite a few Podium features that I want to finish first, so I don’t see myself working on instrument plugins for the next 6 months.
ZynewaveKeymasterIt seems that not all plugins are loaded into the library. I have quite a few (mostly free) plugins and they are in a fairly large directory structure
I had a security check in the scanning code that allowed a max depth of 4 subfolder levels. I’ve now increased this to 8.
Also, when I update the library (instead of rebuilding it), it creates several duplicate submenus in the insert-menu.
Yes. The database update will append new mappings (with their subfolder location) to the end of the list. You can either select to rebuild the database, or manually organize the new mappings into the desired folders.
ZynewaveKeymasterBeta3 is up.
When moving/resizing/stretching events, the color of the mask is now semi-transparent black with white graphcs and text on top. This should work with all color setups, except if you have set the color of the timeline or events to complete black.
I’ve also finished my code review and test of the new stretch functionality, so let me know if you find bugs.
I’m going to spend a day or two updating the guide, and then release 2.33.
ZynewaveKeymasterHi Gabriel,
It’s not a limitation of the Free version. Currently, only wav and aiff file formats are supported. In the future I’ll most likely extend this with .flac and .mp3 support.
ZynewaveKeymasterBeta2:
Fixed all bugs I’m aware of. Let me know if you find more.
While dragging a stretch handle the stretched sequence will be painted translucent on top of the track events. The stretch factor is written at the bottom of the dragged event.
Added “Reset Time-Stretch” command to the edit menu.
The time-stretch factor is now saved in the project file.
ZynewaveKeymasterI have bookmarked this thread for future reading.
I haven’t even finished reading the epic “The Device Mapping Thread” 8-[

If you speak it as well as you write, then I don’t think you will have problems communicating in an English speaking work environment.

So this means I can’t use samples of different sample rates in one project?
Currently all sounds are played back at the samplerate selected in the arrangement properties. I’ve begun experimentation with stretching and resampling, so there is a chance that you’ll be able to use different sample rate sound files in Podium within a couple of months.
