UVI Falcon - v4 = 2026 released - rumors, ads, praise, kindergarden, auto-sampling and off-topic inside!

[Oberheim 8000]

I've found, during the couple of years of using Falcon, that the EQ sometimes doesn't do anything and I have to delete and recreate in order to get it working. I've not noticed a pattern as to when it happens, but it's not infrequent.

I have a same problem.

------------------------------

I would like present my feature request : shift points or sequence in step sequence, envelope sequence and midi sequence. Some arrows in gui will be helpful to do this. One click on left arrow shift all sequence to one ste left and first point / step will be positioned into end. Same if button with right arrow clicked but opposite direction. I think it will be helpful.

I'm also getting crashes a lot on M1, both in Big Sur and Monterey (in Logic). I get the impression it's something to do with the undo function, recently added. It happens more in heavy projects, but also in relatively low resource-intensive ones. Basically, when tweaking a parameter with GUI open I get the spinning wheel of death, until the DAW is force-terminated. It's actually making it rather hard to use Falcon right now, making me have to reach for alternative instruments.

I now had my first crash related to the vst3 version of the Workstation.
But I only have a Cubase crash dump. Do you need that one?

Unfortunately Cubase crashes do not contains any useful information for plugin developers. Only for Steinberg.

Excuse my ignorance, I said crash but really I meant force-quitting on non-responsiveness, which doesn't seem to automatically produce a log... and not being a programmer I don't understand the varieties of reports in the console. The problem persists, so I want to get the right information to you; what should I do?

In case of hang, it's a bit more complicated.
You can check the console App if you see anything.

We have posted a new version which I hope fixes this issues; at least it fixes some hang issue related to specific logic on M1 behavior

Cool. Will feed back when I've had some extended tests.

Try turing the gain down.

I haven't had time for much music making, but was just using Falcon for a while today. The same problem occurred, spinning ball of doom and no option but to force-quit Logic. It seems to have something to do with window focus, like when I have the Falcon GUI open and I move between changing something in Logic and then return to change a parameter in Falcon.

[chagzuki]

I'm finding the frequency of hang the same as before, I don't think the update has made a difference. It's still often enough that Falcon isn't really useable for me, at least in Logic.

[otristan]

If you find some way to reproduce those, I will have another look when I get back from vacation.
The one I have fixed was that for unknown reasons, Logic was calling the chunk saving from non main thread when using Logic own plugin popup menu (copy/paste plugin preset) while at the same time blocking the main thread.
I suspect that Logic still have some issue as well on the M1 platform though.

Thanks !

Any news on Falcon going multi-core?
