SynthMaster 3 Official Thread: SynthMaster 3/Player v3.4.9 Rev 17271 update

[kv331]

I can confirm that. Try to load and I just get the whirry wheel

Workaround: Run the standalone version first. It is going to download expansions. Then Cubase should not cause any issues.

If i have to be honest this topic is totally boring to me - mostly complains and fixes so on...
No idea why mr.B forbit links to instrumentals in soundcloud or other platforms to be uploaded here?
Work on something exciting as demo and would like to upload it here ,when ready ,but ...in the past my video demos mostly sucks,not because i do sh.ty presets,but had problem with cpu overloead and recorded formats, so on and i'm fixing this.
You see i start to complain and fix after 2 sec...:):)

If it's boring to you, there are MANY other topics you can contribute to. Problem solved

You do realize that this is the official support thread for SM3 right? What else would one expect in such a thread?

Same old...It was more joke (good one actually:):):),than a criticism,but if you insist not to bother you with music and fun stuff,which suppose to be the goal ,when purchase synthesizer,which i/we give money for and spend time to help to topics like this to gain more popularity and more money,who am i to say, that the music is more fun,than technical stuff,bugs so on aren't so...don't feel so offended or whatever...most topics are same boring,some more,other less,friendly talk is almost mandatory missing everywhere in kvr,jokes and humor almost extinct,which is sad...not sure why most people even buy a synth,to complain about bugs or to hear what incredible music could be created with it...???...that's mine humble opinion...:):)Probably have to wish nice day,but i am offended too (whio isn't these days:) so whatever...

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

Back on topic, in the latest rev 15512 i'm still getting some odd behavior in the Granular OSC waveform view with the "random Waveform" dice button and "right click -> random multisample" refusing to load anything but "BT mare mediteraneo pad".
-new SM3 vst3 instance
-init preset
-replace OSC1 with Granular OSC (loads with the BT mare sample)
-neither dice button nor "Random Multisample" do anything.

-additionally, now replace the Granular OSC with a Wavetable OSC - this crashes not only the plugin but my entire Reaper DAW.

I can't quite tell if there's some bugged global state (again), but something is clearly going terribly wrong.

Both were bugs, and fixed in v3.0.3. Update coming today

Still having issues with sample import when loading SFZ (v3.02 r15512). I tried another couple of the Zampler banks and now the progress bar shows a partial load (~20%) of the samples but then nothing happens after that. No hard crash this time and I'm able to abort loading by closing and re-opening the plugin GUI. After doing that, it's evident that no samples at all have been loaded. An entry is still made in SynthMasterSamplesFolders.txt that needs manual removal before the plugin will load again after a full closure.

I am hoping that these issues are now fixed in v3.0.3

I also added 2 new important features:

1. Support for dragging and dropping a single sfz file on to the basic osc waveform display. The sfz file and all other sfzs under that directory will be added to the database via this drag-n-drop.

2. While importing or loading sfz files, SynthMaster 3 now displays the task dialog and shows the progress of the import/load. This is crucial if you are loading a 2 GB piano library for instance. I hope I can extend this to loading presets as well. See below screenshot:

Hi guys,
It's update time for SynthMaster 3: We reached version 3.0.3. Please check for updates inside the plugin to download the update setup!

We have both new features and important bug fixes:

NEW FEATURES:

1. Added support to read samples in FLAC format
2. Single samples can now be loaded into basic oscillators
3. Sfz files can now be imported into basic oscillators via drag-n-drop
4. SynthMaster 3 displays progress bar while loading/importing sfz files
5. SynthMaster One factory presets are now available as an expansion download

BUG FIXES:

1. SynthMaster 3 crashes when FLAC files are dragged and dropped on to sample/waveform views
2. When a random preset is loaded, the selected preset in presets list is not updated
3. Waveform and Sample databases are rebuilt whenever revision number increases causing a delay during initialization
4. SynthMaster 3 throws Missing Waveform errors for some SynthMaster 2 presets when SynthMaster 2 is not installed on user machine
5. SynthMaster 3 might hang Cubase DAW when running for the first time
6. SynthMaster 3 doesn't display the name of the loaded preset correctly, instead displays "New Preset" (Issue #96191)
7. Global A4 tuning parameter is not in the correct range (should be between 420-460 Hz, but was in between 430-450 Hz)
8. Editing the distortion curve generates extremely loud clicks (Issue #96259)
9. When loading SynthMaster One presets, layer bypass/solo parameters are not reset (Issue #96233)
10. SynthMaster 3 crashes when switching from Granular to Wavetable oscillator
11. Left/Right arrows and mouse scroll wheel doesn't work correctly for Sample view control
12. Quick sort algorithm on waveforms and samples might cause crashes due to stack overflow errors

Do the presets store everything, including the SFZ files? If not, would it be possible to have an "Archival preset" that saves everything in a patch as an option? There are so many times when I share or receive presets, and vital things are missing. I understand that the size could become quite large, but for archival purposes, it would be very helpful.

Great update!!! So, with the expansions (Synthmaster 2, Synthmaster One), we don't have to install Synthmaster 2 and Synthmaster One anymore, correct?

Correct, just checked.

Yep! No more SynthMaster One or 2

(We stopped selling SynthMaster 2 by the way as it is preceded by SynthMaster 3. We will still support it though)
