PC/Mac Editor version 2.00 (OLD THREAD NEWER EDITOR AVAILABLE)

[Maxicosi]

Yep ive got the latest bootloader if its 1.11....

First of all how do you guys use it standalone? Do you connect the usb port and a midi keyboard to input notes via the midi input?
I get a lot of stuck notes this way and sometimes changing a parameter dont do anything.

Using USB, select "preenfm" in midi output and input should do the trick.
If you're keyboard send the same midi on din5 at the same time, that can lead to stuck notes.

Second one is i cant get the VST version to work. My Cubase doesnt recognise it as a plugin. Maybe i use the wrong .dll file.
Whats the msvcp110.dll file??

It was required with Editor 0.3 which was compiled in "windodws XP" compatibility mode.
But that did not work great.
I'll check but i'm almost sure i compiled Editor 0.4 without this compatiblity mode so this library should be useless.
Did you use the right 32 or 64 bits dll compatible with your Cubase.... I don't have cubase to try.

[Maxicosi]

Yeah!

I got it working in standalone mode. I just overlooked that under midi Input Settings i have to select both preenfm2 and my Midi Keyboard.


No luck about the Editor though. I run Cubase 7 on a Windows 7x64 Laptop.
I tried every possible dll file but nothing works.

Dunno why, VST doesn't show up in Renoise3. Either 32 or 64 bit.

Hi Xavier,
  I have been putting the editor to good use the last couple of days and I have found some issues...

1. The MIDI Setup is not saved on exit
2. The Free envelope 1 decay node keeps dropping / rising outside the graph when dragging the sustain up and down. (Minor bug)
3. The editor seems to crash after being open for a while.  Unfortunately, Windows event viewer only reports this...

Faulting application name: pfm2Editor.exe, version: 0.4.0.0, time stamp: 0x53c6af79
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00000049
Faulting process id: 0x117d4
Faulting application start time: 0x01cfdf1d32c3dc52
Faulting application path: C:\Users\FunkyFli\Downloads\synths\PreenFM2\Editor\pfm2Editor.exe
Faulting module path: unknown
Report Id: 78b2cb8f-4b14-11e4-a8e8-005056c00008

So, sorry, pretty useless.

4.  Also, is there a chance for an update with the added features?  ie.  Bandpass, BitCrusher

Thanks,
  Martin.

[Xavier]

Thanks for all the feedbacks.
I'll try to spend time on the editor soon.
Seems like it requires some polishing.

I played with the Mac version for a while, and it seemed to work fine. I did notice the lack of some of the newer firmware options, but I found it pretty useable, generally.

Keep up the good work, Xavier.

Sorry, another small bug I noticed...
When I set the 'Destination' in the matrix to 'All Op Frequencies', and save the state.  If I then load that back in the editor the display reverts to 'Op6 Frequency'.  The matrix is still 'All Op Freqs'.

Thanks.

[Xavier]

I just uploaded a v0.5 zip file. For Windows only for the moment.
See first message for info about changes.

I changed some linking options in Visual Studio 2012 for the DLL so i hope they will now load better in the different hosts.
Please let me know (again) the host you use if it does not work.

1. I agree it would be nice, but I don't think i'll ever fix that as the setup is a built-in windows of JUCE library.
2. Let me know if you find any reproducable steps for this.

[funkyfli]

Thanks.  I'll try it in VST mode as well.
2.  Basically, if I use it for some time while saving and loading 'states', it will crash... either while saving, loading or changing a value.  Unfortunately, I have found nothing repeatable.  I can use it for hours and nothing.  The last couple of times I have received a 'BEX' event.  Which, apparently, is a buffer overflow error of some sort.  I've just turned on 'run as Administrator'.  I'll see if that helps.

Here is the last 'Windows Error Reporting' Event Viewer message: (for what it's worth)

Martin, i fixed 2 problems in this exe :
<Useless link - the v0.6 is available>

. I added a Mutex to be sure a vector is not filled and deleted at the same time... Could caused some memory written where it should not. Specialy when loading state from the UI.
. StepSequencer also wrote outside of the memory allocation when dragging horizontaly outside the box.

Let me know if you see a difference

[funkyfli]

Thanks.  I'll give it a go.

[Xavier]

Try directly the v0.6 i just uploaded. 

[Xavier]

v0.7: plugins now loads fine in Tracktion.
MacOsX version available.
