Any others seeing this behavior?

Probably a known bug caused by an obscure and unlikely memory overwrite in an older version of the png library. I'm assuming this is Windows 32-bit, right? If so, I have an updated build if you'd like to try it?

Hi, thanks for the quick response. Yes, this is on Windows Vista 32-bit.

I'd be glad to try a new build to see if it works. I'll send you a PM with my email address.

I have the magazine now, and i can confirm that you can download cumulus from the website.

Thanks for letting me know cajmere; much appreciated. Good news for all who were waiting for the Linux software to be included in the CM vault.

Hmm, sorry to hear, I'm on the same system and have no issues running the standalone.

I did a google search using some info from your post and found this(its for windows-explorer, but your could be caused by the same I'm thinking, since I can run the standalone on my Windows 7 64-Bit system)

If their info is accurate, it might help. But I'm sure you'll hear from Colin as well.
Please note, I'm not a coder, its just a shot

jonheal, I've PM'd you with a build which (hopefully) fixes this. Let me know how you get on.

ferez21 · Post by **ferez21** » Tue Mar 26, 2013 4:23 pm

I apologize if it have already been asked, but why does Cumulus play constantly without stopping in FL Studio, even when the sync to host option is on?

colin@loomer · Post by **colin@loomer** » Tue Mar 26, 2013 4:36 pm

I've a fix that changes this behaviour. There was a reason for it working like that originally, but I'm stumped to remember what it was!

If you can give me a day or so to check a few things first, I can email you this Cumulus update.

If the mod is for the Mac version as well, I'd love to get it (PM me please)!

It is, and will do, jc_vt!

I've been through the code, and suddenly remembered why it works this way.

Even when the host transport is stopped, the grains need to be playing. Otherwise you'd hear nothing until FL's transport starts. I've played around with this, and it doesn't feel right: if nothing else, it makes sound designing a bit of a pain to have to ensure the host is always playing.

If you think of Cumulus as a sampler, the way it is working is actually standard behaviour. I think the reason it feels different is because Cumulus can play a note forever if the decay is set to Off (in which case, the STOP button on the bottom of the UI, next to the grain display, can be used to kill any currently playing notes.)

So, the upshot of this, I'm not sure if this does need changing. I'm not saying I won't change it, just that I need to be convinced. If anyone has any suggestions as to how it should work, I'm listening.

(I do, however, think there is merit in changing the Sequencer to obey the host's transport playing/stopped state, even in Local mode.)

I still don't get why Cumulus won't "shut up" when i press stop in my daw, and i want silence. It's impossible to produce when one synth is always being heard :/
