1.4 beta and development thread

[ohm]

an update: the paste and close bugs have been addressed in the beta that I sent out yesterday (and today to {-n8-}).
I managed to reproduce the "visible tracks" bug too, and I'm working fixing that one now.

As for the preview not selecting anymore, the only reason I changed it was that I found that in energy XT using very small buffer sizes I'd get some clicks because the graphics card was busy updating the gui at the exact same time as the preview was starting to play - I'll see if I can solve that problem in a more elegang fashion.

I'll look at the CTRL instert issue as well

And as you already acknowledged, you have successfully cured the unexpected crash quit issue when hosted inside eXT. At least it's safe to say it's way more stable now: I tried to reproduce this in 1.43b with a large amount of LiveSlice instances (in 1.42 it only took two or three instances) and still couldn't get it to misbehave. Yay!

Hey ohm,

I'm happy to report that V1.43Beta2 is working flawlessly on my system.

[Guenon]

Same here. Both in eXT and Live, it seems to rock stable again

[Maniah]

So far so good here. But then the last 2 betas were working fine as well.

Any body else have issues playing larger wav files? The Beta seems to crash when I chop larger files 20-30sec. I import a large wav file during audio play back, adjust sensitivity, drag'n'drop into a track then... crash (sometimes it happens then other times it doesn't). I'm using only one instance of LS in my host Ableton Live 5.2

I had one 30 minute wav loaded and only problem with LS was that it went a tad slow on it's moves.

Right since I bought LS I have had crashes when I press the Randomize dice -mostly set to reseq. It happens almost every time I press the dice a couple of times, both in Ableton live 5 and in Cubase SX2

Last night this made Live crash:

4 tracks > pressed dice several times > ctrl-right clicked several slices in the track to remove the slices > pressed dice again and crash.

The number of tracks doesn't matter. Just mess around with the dice.

Can anyone else reproduce this bug?

This is actually the only thing that makes LS crash my hosts. It seems like the other bugs has been dealt with.

[Soarer]

Well, I cannot even reproduce this myself now so probably noone else can. But it has happened many times. It really did. You have to believe me...

LiveSlice v1.43 Beta 2 seems to have got rid of some big nasty bugs

I have found 2 minor ones (mainly GUI refreshing problems):
BR01/ Renaming recorded loops:
1 - Launch LiveSlice
2 - Click on Play
3 - Record a loop
4 - Try to rename the recorded loop by double clicking
There's like a refreshing problem when renaming the loop, as you can't see exactly which letters you are typing

BR02/ Red boxes around arrangements not 'updated':
The red boxes which normally appear around arrangements (when they are being triggered by midi notes for example), disappear if LiveSlice's GUI is closed & reopened.

Cheers,
GilJ.
