I've rewritten the sequencer as a module and split it into separate parts so now I can add many of them
Into a spare virtual 'rack', aka a bank of SQ10's etc...
I'm undecided whether to give it full control of other modules or only have it active while a MIDI key is held.
The LEDs are still giving me some timing issues so I'm looking at writing my own custom BPM to host sync.
Also, the GUI is now fully end user skin able.

Here is a beta download version of the update to my patchwork synthesizer.

It's fully modular, just click on the module headings to add/remove a module
I'm sure you all know how this sort of thing works :)

NOTE: This version is preset to mono mode while I rewrite the polyphonic voice handler.

Please see the ReadMe info on where to install the skin bitmaps.
Yeah, I know my skin design is a bit naff so If anyone wants to offer their GUI design talents please email me and i will send you the specs for the layout.

Hello kirsty,just downloaded your latest update,there seems to be a problem because the gui doesn't load,the previous version worked fine,i'm using Fl studio / win 8 64 bit,using savihost displays the same problem...

Unfortunately, Reaper has the same problem. I guess it would be right to make XRDO DAW independent and leave all the resources and plugin in one folder.

Did you guys run your DAW with full administrative rights before opening this plugin for the first time? SE plugins usually need that because they need to extract some files from the .dll after first time loading.

EDIT: just had a closer look at this one. toitoi you're right, this seems to be an odd construction for a plugin to have the skin files in a completely different directory (the host directory) from where the plugin resides :-o

How would the plugin know in what host it is loaded and where to look for its skin files this way? :shock:

Quote from readme:
Put Patchwork Modular System.dll in your VST plugins/instruments folder
Put Patchwork_Skin in the same folder as your host.

I use Synapse Audio Orion so...

C:\Program Files (x86)\OrionPlatinum\Patchwork_Skin
C:\Program Files (x86)\OrionPlatinum\VstInstruments\Patchwork Modular System.dll
No band limits, aliasing is the noise of freedom!

That's odd. There is no difference in how the plugin loads it's skin in this update.

If the previous version worked ok then just copy the *.bmp and *.dll files into the existing
folder locations, overwriting the previous versions.
I will see about a better way of doing this, perhaps with an installer program, but I would
still like to keep the GUI separate from the plugin.

Sorry for the issue.

Update...
http://www1.datafilehost.com/d/a5ddca38

I wrote a little pathfinder routine to search for the skin folder.
If it doesn't find it a MessageBox will suggest where to copy the Patchwork_Skin
folder to, but it could be host dependent!

Make sure you use the skin bitmaps in this update.

Thanks again for the new update Kirsty, here all is working fine.

That path was really unexpected :shock:

and it didn't work

mmhh - this skin folder placement system is a little weird.
The bigger problem is, that the synth eats up my dual core completely and starts to crackle after inserting any of the two filters and play two chords....
