Hey all, another update is ready!
Highlights:
- Added numpad controls as alternative to using the X and Y encoders to the following menu’s: (see Front panel - PolyPulse manual)
- Note list editor
- Cue editor (timeline view)
- Sample list editor
- File browser
- Settings menu’s
- List selection menu’s
- Audio effect set position for new FX
- Added ducker audio effect: applies volume envelope to signal that can be triggered from any pulse on any track. The envelope can also be inverted so it can be used for both ‘side-chain compression’ and ‘trance gate’ effects.
- Added 16seq modulator: a step sequencer with up to 16 steps.
- Added the option to toggle between static and random delay time for each pulse by pressing the encoder.
- Added automatic backup system: every x minutes a backup is created in a folder inside the current project (when the clock is not running).
- Added/re-implemented reset by: resets a track if another track has reset.
Other changes and bugfixes:
- Added overwrite project: xxx.proj option to [edit]+[settings] which can be used to see what the current project is and to quickly save it.
- Improved subtractive turbo mode saw/pulse curve.
- subtractive sync parameter is not expressed as ratio instead of percentage.
- Increased maximum modulation depth of ratio parameters.
- Improved delay visual to better show echo and feedback values.
- The BPM encoder LED now blinks on the beat when the clock is running.
- subtractive filter can now be set to bypass (which saves CPU usage).
- resonator can now disable one of the two resonators (which saves CPU usage).
- Audio effect channels now blink at the start of a note.
- Fixed quad engine voice usage lines in the audio effects view highlighting incorrect lines.
- Fixed patch output channel usage lines not highlighting the correct lines.
- Fixed the cue editor start value not updating when switching between cues in the editor.
- Fixed sample analysis not starting after loading granular *.inst files which caused a crash when notes were triggered.
- Fixed quad engine voices being faded out earlier than needed when polyphony is higher than 1.
Here is the new firmware: polypulse-firmware-0.3.3.zip (1007.8 KB)
See here how to update your PolyPulse. Note that the file manager only recognizes *.zip files whose name starts with polypulse-firmware- as firmware updates.
Enjoy!
