Oatmeal (mediocre free VSTi) - 37-4 (fixed Renoise problem)

[soma]

I love it!
Thanks for continuing the Buzz user world domination.
I have one small request, can you add tb4004 type Saw pulse width control. (for every wave form would be cool)
It looks like this:


It's like doing sync only the wave is not repeated but played once per cycle.

That's really weird; the files' location shouldn't make any difference.

Maybe it only makes a difference depending on the host, not the VST... you know, where the VST was cited as being "directively" when it was initiated into the VST list.

Further investigation: this may have nothing to do with path. I'm getting the error intermittingly. I can fire up FL Studio, add Oatmeal to a channel, loads fine. If I try to add a 2nd oatmeal, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't (get that error msg listed above)...

I apologize for the amount of "error reports", just trying to help out, and narrow things down (eventually )

I'm not knowledgeable enough to state this as a definite bug, but is anyone else having problems with the lead sounds when holding down more than two keys?
Try playing (and holding them all down) any sequence of 3 different keys. On the third key I always either get a clicking sound or the 1st key note again.
Does that make any sense?

Hmm, can't replicate that... what exactly do you mean by "lead sounds"?

I thought the "lead sounds" would throw you off the scent. I guess I mean monophonic sounds (ie. not polys). Again, I'm no expert on the lingo here. I had the explanation a bit wrong before. Let me try to explain again.
Open the "bassmeh" preset. Play a note and hold (hold this down the entire time). Play a second note. The "bug" occurs in the next step. Play a third note. When you switch from note 2 to 3, let go of note 2, but immediately switch to note 3 (if you switch slowly or let the first note sound in between, the "bug" won't occur). This results in a clicking sound, or more likely, the first note will sound instead of the 3rd.
Again, this only occurs while holding down a "root note" and switching notes 2 and 3 very quickly, possibly when there is just a little overlap of note 2 and 3 during the switch.

Hopefully that will help you replicate this! Sorry if my explanation is poor...

See, this is what I meant. Bugs, bugs, bugs. At least I think this one is fixed now, though.

The random is excelent!

Easy way to reproduce for me: open 1 or more oatmeals. Now, it seems I can add as many as I want. But, if I hide the VST (can't see the GUI), and try to open a new one, I'll get the error.

[Fuzzpilz]

I think it might be gone now.

[OzoneJunkie]

Yep. Working here no problems now.

Thanks for your help tracking this down, OzoneJunkie. (although the hiding thing was more or less a red herring) Going to give this "sleep" thing the kids are always talking about another try now.

Thank you, very cool! I like it but I couldn't see it very well. Adjusted the color, contrast and painted the knobs black. It's here if anyone wants it.

Happy to help. Sweet dreams... try not to dream about fishing...

my goodness. If this is skinnable....

Btw...the blue lines you can see in the bottom info bar if you make sure the lines here remain red (solid red = r:255 / g:000 / b:000) then they will be transparent when the GUI is in use.

i can see the gui fine

One of my first attempts at randomizing produced "Made by a Lord"--I like Oatmeal and Oatmeal likes me! (you may kiss my ring)

(But of course it's really talking about the genius behind the Oatmeal!!)
