Announcing Firmware v2.1.15, which has some new features and bug fixes:
New Features:
Change Knob Sets using a MetaButtons expander:
When enabled in Prefs, pressing buttons 1-8 jumps to Knob Set 1-8. If the patch has fewer than 8 Knob Sets, then the unused buttons can still be used for mappings. Optionally you can use all 8 buttons normally for mappings, but have the MetaButtons module function as a Knob Set selector only when you hold down the Back button. If you have multiple MetaButton modules connected, you can assign one of them in particular as the Knob Set selector.
Reduce notifications: New preference lets you show less notifications. The options are “All”, “Fewer”, or “Only Critical”. You also can disable the drop-down/up animation.
Thanks for an amazing update! This is such an amazing quality of live update and I am loving it! Great for live performance! Thanks for all the amazing work you are doing!
unfortunately @danngreen , received a crash today when loading up one yml after another. in this case some of the wavplayers might have still been playing their wavs in the previous yml, when i hit play on the current frozen one:
ty @danngreen ! i can use 2.1 w these patches for now no problem (seems v stable still). but im working on other live sets that lean heavy on the latest firmware. i’m curious is there a way (ie a file on the sdc or) to save the pref settings to make setup easy when switching back forth between 2.1 and the latest firms?
I’ve been starting to play around with, but a befaco vcmc over usb is a nice way to add 8 buttons and 8 sliders and basically CV control of all of those. I am looking forward to the knobs expansion too…..but this so far looks promising. The only downside is using the USB so far.
just a heads up @danngreen on this crash, i’ve run through 2 variant sets of wavplayer template ymls (using PCM via firm17.1.17rc5). the old set of ymls (that i sent you) that uses bog and mshack, and the newest set uses a custom plugin i built in rnbo which eliminated the need for so many modules and freed up about 20-30% extra cpu .
i’m only seeing crashes on the 1st set of ymls (bog,mshack plugins).. my guess, these crashes are something to do with something either in bog modules, or mshack? or perhaps the fact that those older wavplayer ymls used 80-90% cpu off the bat. come to think of it, i’ve also noticed recently some crashes with some of my other (non wavplayer) ymls that also use a lot of bog modules. those patches also used over 80% cpu
edit/update: ok this actually could be my power supply module. yesterday was noticing that the left most mm that’s wired furthest down the ribbon from my psm was always the one crashing. so im borrowing a different psm and so far no crashes after auto running through the patches for several hours
