Plugins v1.0.17: Bogaudio, CountModula, Airwindows fixes

Announcements
1

We have a new release for all of the 4ms-maintained plugins:

  • Airwindows
  • Bogaudio
  • ChowDSP
  • CountModula
  • Fundamental
  • Geodesics
  • kocmoc
  • NanoModules
  • OrangeLine
  • RebelTech
  • Valley

As always download from the Plugins page

Note: It’s highly recommended to upgrade to v1.2.1 to use the newest versions of the plugins. If you do not upgrade your firmware, you can still use the latest plugin versions but you must remove the “-v1.0.17” from the plugin file names. Example: Bogaudio-v1.0.17.mmplugin should be renamed Bogaudio.mmplugin. Or, a better idea is to just upgrade your firmware (download here).

Changes:

  • The plugin version is now in the plugin file name, like this:
    Bogaudio-v1.0.17.mmplugin
    This is so you can tell what version(s) you have on disk. Older plugins without the version will still load just fine (you just won’t be able to tell what version they are in the plugin page). If you have multiple versions, the autoloader will pick the latest one that’s compatible with the running firmware.
    (You need to update your firmware to v1.2.0 to take advantage of this feature)

Fixes

  • Bogaudio has been fixed in a lot of places! Various modules that used envelopes and/or slew were compiling funny for the MetaModule. This fixes a lot of distortion or apparent clipping/peaking. E.g. modules like LPG, LLPG, Slew, FMOP, and many others: post

  • Bogaudio modules also had an issue where they would momentarily overload the CPU when you either started the patch or patched a cable. This was due to the modules (in their VCV form) allocating dynamic memory within the audio loop. We fixed this by pre-allocating when the module is created so performance is snappier and less patches with Bogaudio modules hit CPU > 99%. post

  • The initialization order of modules didn’t match VCV’s order, so some modules would load with incorrect settings. The only example we found was CountModula MatrixMixer with the Bipolar/Unipolar switch, but it’s likely other examples existed, too. issue

  • Fixed VCV Free/Fundamental Quantizer Pre-offset knob. It’s now bi-polar like it should be.issue

  • kocmoc updated: Fix various incompatibilities arising from MetaModule plugin wrapping, and Tweek LADR gain level

I didn’t make a release annoucement for v1.0.14, v1.0.15, so here it is:

  • Airwindows: parameters were not zero-initialized in the MM wrapper code, so sometimes loading a patch would cause a huge explosion in sound (sorry).
  • Bogaudio Solo/Mute button states were not saved in patch files
