Thank you so much!! I really appreciate all your hard work.kurasu wrote:For beta 4 I essentially rewrote the PDC engine to get calculated in the opposite direction of how we used to do it and in a generally more intelligent manner which makes it much more robust for complex routing scenarios and it also allows monitoring to be made with as little latency as possible. It also minimizes the delay between when a plugin is processed and when you'll hear it so plug-in GUIs doesn't get out of sync. This rewrite means that we had to re-check each point where we delay signals to compensate.owensands wrote:Tracking my gear using midi time code is still not on the grid in BETA 6. was confirmed by dom that something went awry with PDC engine in 1.1 BETA. Said it would be fixed in next beta release(that would make it 6). For 1.0.15 and lower it was always bang on the grid for me within a 1/1024 note. Now its up to 1/128 note early or late depending whether I have recording compensation ticked.
MIDI clock sync was one of the things we forgot to fix after the rewrite, didn't make it into beta 6 but we've fixed that one already for 7.
Other known issues related to PDC: (which only happens when using plug-ins which add much latency)
- note recording latency is off
- recording of clips in weird in the sense that the clip is writing too fast, for the resulting audio material however the timing is correct
- the visual feedback from the clip launcher is not compensated so it appears to switch to other clips too early
Hopefully we manage to fix all of those for beta 7.
Apart from that everything else should be properly compensated including side-chains, audio/not routings, modulation routings, automation, transport-timing, vu-meters, note-indications, playheads, external effects and instruments.
EDIT
I also forgot to mention that PDC is now better integrated into the modular system, we added a "flux capacitor" component which works as a compensation delay that automatically equalizes that edge with the other edges the graph, like this example for FX Chain.
