Waveform 9.0.37 Beta

[FigBug]

Waveform 9.0.37 Beta is now available in your Tracktion account: https://marketplace.tracktion.com/shop/ ... rchive?v=9

A quick release to fix a bug where W9 wouldn't show automation from W8 edits. A few other changes well.

One change to note -- pattern generator presets (chord progression, bass and chord) are now normal presets in that you can browse and preview them in the search panel, drag them into a track, etc.

All our tutorial videos can now be accessed from the settings video page. You'll also be notified of new videos in the upper right of the app when they are released.

Just noticed something really minor in the included tags/presets. There are tags for "Vocal" and "vocal". The first lists one called Vocals - Female and the second lists one called Vocals - Male. I assume there should be one tag that lists both, rather than separate ones.

Thx for the new version...

This was in the previous version too. You can easily edit two of the presets to make then all equal.

Hmmm.. Now you have the bass and chord presets in the search window. So you can use your tags to get a selection with the presets that you are interested in. But when you are going to apply a preset, you still get the old list will every preset that is on the machine.

Thanks. Thought I'd let TSC know in case it wasn't intended.

Thanks for the speedy automation fix!

Still have automation issues with Waveform 8, which I've described on the email channel.

How about a Steven Slate Trigger 2 fix Been waiting 2 1/2 years on that one.

Auto Lock behavior issues.

Automation data does not move with the clips when using the Move Clip feature. It does move / copy the automation data if you drag the clips to a new position via mouse, yet when using this method, the clips don't visually move with the mouse cursor, until you let go of the mouse button, thus it's a blind move. Other versions have not liked dragging huge amounts of clips, especially comp clips with many takes, thus I've tended to use the Move Clip option, which is very fast, accurate and didn't cause hangs or crashes.

This behavior's been around for a while and I just tested it in 9.0.37 and it's still not working for me.

Comp clips: When takes are displayed, the take numbers on the left side are unreadable. They're a dark grey box with a barely different shade of grey for text.

Be cool to have the automation curve color know to switch to a well contrasted color to the clip color (when it's blue) so that it doesn't disappear unless you select it (turns from blue to red). Needing to change the clip color to see the automation curve on blue clips is not optimal. I know this is a niggle!

With VST plug GUI open and the focus is in that GUI (making parameter changes), space bar is not start stopping the transport. Has this always been the case? I don't think so.

* Update to above: Confirmed this behavior is only with certain plugs. Some pass along the space bar functionality while in focus mode.

Seeing Collection clip strangeness. In one submix there's a couple collection clips that have no associated clips. On a related note, I had stray audio at the beginning of a collection clip that could not be removed, in that again, there was no visible clip that would would be associated to the display, yet it was producing sound. Had to create a new submix and copy the clips from the defective one into it. This maneuver got rid of the stray audio at the beginning of the collection clip.

Wait a tic...

The clips were Disabled in the Tracks Browser! So sorry.

Not sure if the fragment at the beginning of the collection clip issue was related, in that I don't see any clips that were disabled in that zone.

Would like some feedback on these please:

Another glitch in the 9.0.37 matrix... Have not heard form the devs in a while, anyone home?

Newfangled EQuivocate inserts into a track OK, then crashes when I attempt to launch the GUI.

Log and dmp files attached.

I notice problem when 2 tracks have follow chord track enable. when change the chord in bar 1 then only track 2 change track 1 change not. when change chord in bar 2 then track 1 change at bar 1 and track 2 on bar 2. normaly in all tracks should change same bar. see video. the testsong file is attach. the song example edit is testsong.

Edit: I replace the track 1 with a new midi object which is fill then new from chord track. then it work correct. maybe problem is because this testsong was from waveform 8. but as far i remember first it work, only after later edit problem occur.

Another problem i see when i chose the menu in chord selector Set to FM. now when i open the menu again then i can choose major triad minor triad. but there is no way back to choose the chord number. or do i miss something ?. in the video can see what happen . Edit: i see when press shift and click then the chord number chooser come.
