RML Labs Latest Release Notes CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE ENTIRE LATEST RELEASE NOTES FOR THESE PRODUCTS SAWStudio (Full And Lite)Current Release Notes Enhancements * Enhanced code to better resolve network file paths to avoid missing file error messages on SAWStudio remotes when first connecting or opening files. * Enhanced code to allow drive substitution on slaves when opening files from host. If the slave does not have a matching drive as the host, the drive letter will be substituted from the default session path in the path setup dialog. * Enhanced the MultiTrack Slide Entry Data function (Shift-Right-Drag) to respond to number-selected tracks for multiple track editing operation. You can cancel the group editing temporarily for this function by using the Alt-Key along with the Shift-Right-Drag to perform the operation. * The current Shade name in use, if any, is now displayed in the Shades/Open menu option. Eq Plugin Version 3.1 * Enhanced code pertaining to SAC. Echo Plugin Version 3.1 * Enhanced code pertaining to SAC. Bug Fixes * Fixed code when using the Fx Bypass switch with multiple channels selected to only update the switch bypass condition on channels with patched plugins. * Changed code to help with activating another application on the first click when switching from SAWStudio. * Fixed code to extract region name, instead of filename, as the base name for new regions created by Alt-Left-Clicking a marked MT Entry and dropping a new entry on the MT. * Fixed code in the message dialog windows which could have chopped titlebar message text short under certain conditions. Echo Plugin Version 3.1 * Fixed code to properly dissolve FeedBack delays as they near -infinity db. Current Release Notes Enhancements * Enhanced the SACLink protocol to pass necessary information between SAC and SAWStudio to allow for record loopback latency compensation and an overall more accurate record sync alignment during overdub recording using the SACLink. * Added a new TCP/IP mode called Activate TCP/IP Video Slave Mode to the Options Menu. This option allows you to use a slave machine specifically as a video slave only, meaning no audio is being played from its engine. The video viewer playback sync is locked to the host machine network position, not the local soundcard playback position. Therefore this machine does not require any special word clock or other clock sync connection to keep host and slave accurately synced for the video playback. Normally a slave machine plays its own soundcard outputs and handles its own internal positioning, depending on some sort of hardware clock sync between the host and slave soundcards to keep from drifting. * Added TCP/IP control of the AutoRewind Switch for Remotes. * Added a new option to the Host Mode TCP/IP functions that allows you to now see a list of all Remote and Slave computers currently connected. Left-Clicking in the main titlebar Host/Master zone when you have active connections will display a list of each computer connection and the computer names. Video Track Viewer Version 3.4 * Added two new options on the popup Options Menu called Render RealTime To Extended Monitor and Keep Original Video Aspect On Extended Monitor. These options emulate the Hardware Overlay Render features on video cards that do not support the second monitor full-screen video playback options. These options will output a full-screen display on a secondary extended monitor. The display is scaled using hi-speed software manipulation to replace the missing overlay output capabilities. This now allows you to create very inexpensive video slave machines using small NetBook computers or laptops, as long as they have a dual monitor video output, which most currently do. You can then run them as TCP/IP remotes or video slaves for perfect video sync, feeding video projectors in shows using separate video streams. Bug Fixes * The SAC Link Import Mix Data From SAC option now correctly ignores the Input Att, Swap LR, Phase Rvs and Mono Switch. * Modified code to trap for TCP/IP packet splitting of long command string data that could cause corruption in the command execution under certain conditions. * Modified code for loading VST Presets and forcing a screen update of the new settings for certain plugins that would not update properly on their own. * Modified code to force a MT Cursor redraw when switching back from other applications. Eq Plugin Version 2.8 * Fixed code to properly initialize all parameters when loading presets while the engine is live. * Code modified to stabilize sending and receiving parameter set data for preset saves and loads while the processing engine is live. Echo Plugin Version 2.9 * Fixed code to properly initialize all parameters when loading presets while the engine is live. * Code modified to stabilize sending and receiving parameter set data for preset saves and loads while the processing engine is live. Current Release Notes Enhancements Bug Fixes * Fixed TCP/IP Slave Mode communications which were broken in 4.6 and 4.7. * Fixed code to trap Output Chan Solo switches from writing as automation entries under certain conditions. Eq Plugin Version 2.7 * When SAWStudio was in Realtime Priority mode, certain system configurations could cause the left-click up/dn parameter adjustment feature to fail. This code fixes that issue. Echo Plugin Version 2.8 * When SAWStudio was in Realtime Priority mode, certain system configurations could cause the left-click up/dn parameter adjustment feature to fail. This code fixes that issue. Current Release Notes Enhancements * Enhanced the Aux Send processing to allow for a Pst Fader – Pre Pan send scenario by disengaging the Aux Send Pst FX switch. * Enhanced and renamed the SACLink Import Mix Data from SAC option to now read as Import Mix Data From SAC Input Chans (Active/Selected). This function includes only active (input source assigned and not disabled) input chans and properly handles re-ordered SAC chans when creating the new Record Template. If SAC chans are selected, then only those chans are included in the import. Another new SACLink option called Arm Last Imported Record Template assures that the record arming begins on the proper imported start track so that all record input assignments will correctly follow the imported SAC channels. You can also engage the record template on the proper track by Alt-Clicking on any track Rec switch. Bug Fixes * Fixed code to correct problems with the SACLink Recall Scene By Name function that would cause certain scenes not to recall based on naming length conditions and other recall order factors. Also fixed code to stop a crash that could occur when the SACLink was not active and a Recall Scene By Name entry would be exercised.. * More work done on saving VST settings and presets. This new code should fix compatibility issues with Voxengo plugins and UAD plugins (and others) that were having trouble saving presets and session settings. * More Work done on VST Multi-In/Out plugins like some of the newer Voxengo plugs to stop the possibility of a hard crash once playback is initiated. * More work done on retaining the last active window when switching between apps using the SACLink or minimize functions. * Fixed code to stop SRP playback across a marked area from muting armed record track data when Record is not actively engaged. Current Release Notes Enhancements * Included the new 32 chan Behringer BCF2000 midi controller template. See details in the helpfile for setting up multiple BCF2000 units. * Enhanced the Copy Track (Or Marked Area) to Layer feature to allow copying to all layers at the same time by holding the Shift-Key when activating the command. This will also apply to multiple track options of the same function. * Enhanced the Copy All (Or Marked)Automation to Layer feature to allow copying to all layers at the same time by holding the Shift-Key when activating the command. This will also apply to multiple track options of the same function. * Modified the SRP auto-punch function. When SRP is engaged with a marked area on the MT, an auto-punch operation is ready to engage at the marked area. The auto-punch will not activate unless the REC button has also been pressed sometime before the auto-punch area. When the REC button has been armed, it will flash until the actual auto-punch area is reached, at which point it will engage record and display solid red. This helps eliminate accidental record operations when using SRP to playback after an auto-punch. If the REC is armed, you will see the REC light flashing, giving you ample warning that you are about to overwrite the punch area with a new recording. The Shift-SRP can also be used to engage SRP and arm the REC at the same time. The auto SRP/REC latch option can also be used. You can also override the flashing REC button by pressing the REC again before reaching the auto-punch area and recording will start immediately. * Added a warning prompt if you attempt to clear the marked area while Offset Mode is active. This can help prevent offset changes from being applied to the entire track by accident. Also added the creation of an undo file when exiting Offset Mode and applying changes. * Enhanced the TCP/IP options to save with the preferences so you can automatically boot into one of the Host, Remote or Slave modes. * Added support for using Show Control View and show playback on Remote computers. * Right-Clicking on the Show Control View Blue Pyramid Options icon will now allow the window to float over top of other programs. * Show Control Mode now has a new Continue enhancement… you may now select Wait to load the next session and wait, not starting playback and not preloading and placing a prompt on screen. Playback may then be started at any time with any playback command when ready. * Show Control Mode now also allows for Global Midi Play and Stop notes to control the Show Control playback. These save with the Show Control File and allow a single note-on to control global play and another to control global stop within the entire Show Control list of individual session files. * Show Control Mode now also allows for Global Midi Prev and Next notes to control the Show Control selection listbox. These save with the Show Control File and allow a single note-on to move to the previous or next Show Control listbox entry within the entire Show Control list of individual session files. * Enhanced the TCP/IP Remote capabilities to now allow connecting during live playback… the remote will be synchronized into the playback loop, including the detection of Show Control Mode. * TCP/IP Remote computers will now display a popup notice when the Host is waiting to answer a message dialog. The wait can be overridden by pressing Shift-Esc on the remote computer. * TCP/IP Host computers will now display a popup notice when a Remote is waiting to answer a message dialog. The wait can be overridden by pressing Shift-Esc on the host computer. * The MT and SF play cursor freeze action has been extended down 2 more zoom levels from 256 to 64. * The Control Track Built-In Commands have been enhanced to now include two new SACLink functions; SACLink Recall Cur Scene and SACLink Recall Scene By Name. The first command recalls the currently selected SAC Scene View entry. The second command jumps the SAC Scene View listbox to the named scene and then recalls it. * Added modifications to allow compatibility with new Waves 6 VST plugins. The plugins need to first be extracted from the Wave Shell using the Shell2VST utility. * Enhanced the SRC resolution in the Lowest Quality setting to retain better accuracy of the samplerate during a conversion. * BuildMix will now automatically ignore live device inputs. VST synths will still be included in the build. * The Export Region function now defaults to the current Session folder. It will retain any path change you make until you open a new session at which point it will now reset and default to that session folder. Video Track Viewer Version 3.3 * Enhanced the Video Viewer to allow it to be moved to a secondary monitor. Be aware that some DirectDraw driver implementations may not function correctly on monitors other than the Primary monitor. If you loose the video viewer from the Primary monitor due to screen resolution changes, you can force the viewer to the current monitor resolution by opening the viewer from SAWStudio while pressing the Shift-Key. Echo Plugin Ver 2.7 * Modifications made to properly update settings display on an open plugin altered by a SAC Scene change using the SACLink option. Graphic Eq Plugin Ver 2.6 * Modifications made to properly update settings display on an open plugin altered by a SAC Scene change using the SACLink option. Also now allows the Options menu to open while the engine is live.
Bug Fixes * Code modified to display Chan labels in the Wide Mixer popup Dynamics Key menu in the same manner as the Zoom and Exploded Mixer views. * Fixed code to display the Export Region progress bar window without cutting off the word “Cancel”. * Fixed code to retain whether the Ctrl key was pressed when clicking on a track record switch to open a record template and the save session dialog pops up asking for a session name. Once the name is entered and the dialog is closed, the entire record template will now correctly open. * Fixed code to trap for duplicate record filenames for track labels that are the same and when rate, res, or filetype is changed midstream. * Fixed code to properly shutdown Soundfile playback with SAC-Link at end of file and end of marked regions in SF view. * Fixed code to initialize the timeline mode when opening a saved preference file. * Fixed code to stop MT Cursor from jumping back to starting play position if playback is stopped when zoomed in past the cursor freeze zoom ratio. * Fixed code to break the MT-SF cursor link when jumping to a Control Track marker position after transferring data from the MT to the SF view. * Fixed code to properly repaint mixer top client mixer label zones whenever labels are cleared or entered, including maintaining selected channel status. * Fixed code to trap for SoundFile Playback crash on a TCP/IP computer remote. SF playback on a remote computer is not currently possible. * Fixed code to ignore Label Selected tracks when using the Remove Silence function. This eliminates a possible crash that could otherwise occur. * Fixed the Frontier AlphaTrack Midi Controller Template to stop fader chattering when playing thru fader automation and the readout display was not set to Fader. * Fixed the SampleRate Conversion algorithms to output more accurate final filesizes based on the rate conversion predicted size. * Fixed code to allow midi controllers to properly follow track re-ordering for Rec Meter engaging and Section jumps. * Fixed code to correct for Show Control Mode stopping at the end of each session when SACLink is active. * Fixed code to correct for possible display corruption when the engine is active on multiple cpu systems and under moderate to heavy load. * Fixed code to correct loading of the various Recent File List data when any one of the .ini files does not exist. * Fixed code to maintain the hide/show windows as the active window when returning back into SAWStudio. * Fixed code to automatically skip save session prompts during Show Control playback which would normally popup if any mixer controls had been altered since the current session had been loaded. * Fixed a misspelling in a File View file relocation message box.
