Re: Only 4 audio sources no matter the hardware?

Hi, This has been raised before and unfortunately it does appear that VM is linited to just four inputs and eight outputs. It might be worth emailing Cherry Audio with a direct request as it could have more impact than posting here. This forum is mostly users and third party devs chatting amongst ou...

Re: MC-4 Microcomposer sequencer module ?

Daphne's amazing machine was an early inspiration for me back in the late 1970's but it's much more modern than the MkII.

Tom Richards' PhD paper on her work is available as a PDF for anyone curious to learn more...

Re: MC-4 Microcomposer sequencer module ?

Isn't 43 year old technology a bit too modern for you guys?

Wouldn't something from 73 years ago be even better?

Re: boolean alreadyRunning()

Ah, thanks Martin. I'd entirely forgotten about the Destroy() method. That might actually help, also cheers for the other pointers.

Re: boolean alreadyRunning()

Haven't done this yet, but since modules cannot communicate with each other the only ways I can think of to achieve this are 1. [Get|Set][Global|Manufacturer|User]Property functions or 2. using the file system to leave a mark. In both cases you will need to take care that the mark is properly remov...

boolean alreadyRunning()

Has anyone managed to come up with a reliable test that can be called during module initialization that determines whether another instance of the current module type is already running?

The application being to prevent more than one instance of a given module running at the same time.

Re: Sneak Peek

Looking forward to this release. I'm working flat out on final tweaking, testing and documentation now so with a bit of luck it will be released before the end of this month. Here are more up to date images of the three auxiliary modules... Custom Control - this handles scene management, morphing a...

Re: MRB Talks Digital vs Analog

A great interview.

Starting at about 6 minutes in there's a wonderful section where Mark talks about his enthusiasm for software-based modular synthesis and how it helps him reach flow state in a way that's not really possible with hardware.

Re: Strange SmoothValue results

Roland, rather than spend days trying to get CA's hidden code to work why not just write your own solution? As I hinted in the other thread the SmoothValue class implementation is probably extremely simple. The example code I posted does the job. We all like to use ready-built solutions when doing s...
