How does the resizable gui work?
Its always been perfect for me ( nearly full screen at 1320 ). I see an "expand" button on the front panel but its greyed out. There is now a vertical scroll bar that moves it just a hair but no change really. Still perfect for me. I wouldnt want it smaller. One day I may use a monitor that needs to make it bigger. Just curious I guess.

The velocity is now the cat's meow. Thank you.

I am experiencing issues with adding the midi controller modulator to the pitch wheel with note pitch as the target.

I am kinda at a loss on how to explain what is happening.

I set the modulator to bipolar and amount to full. This should give +12 and -12. and it does. but after using the pitch wheel all the way to the right (+12) and back some notes on the keyboard are no longer accurate.

Can someone who has a better gift with words explain what is happening.

The results aren't random but may differ each time you do this. If you press a different note some of the wrong (mis tuned) notes come back to normal.

Ill play with it again this eve to see if there is a pattern.

Resizable is always good.

Yes, you're right, the pitch bend is messed up, I'll make sure that is fixed for the next release.

To resize the gui click and drag the triangle in the very lower right hand corner,
works just like most windows applications, also see the user guide first section.

Yeah, I found it by accident. It was hidding just out of view. Works fantastic!

Funny you mention the manual, I just re read the older version that I have and found that the revelation I had about modulations not being deleted with audio components was addressed. Probably a good idea to download a new version of the manual with each release...duh! Not used to a dev so on top of manual updates. Even some of the biig boys aren't this fast.

RPH Try modulating the FM modulator parameters in the first or modulator oscillator, not in the second or carrier oscillator, and see if that works.

In the future I am planning on connecting the modulations between FM oscillators but I had not had time to do it yet.

Logically speaking, if you want to modulate FM parameters, you need to do so in the modulator oscillator since that is really where the FM synthesis modulation parameters are being used internally.

Conversely if you want to modulate a parameter which effects only the oscillator output such as the volume or pitch you would do so in the second or carrier oscillator.

I know this is a bit confusing but in the future I will simplify it.

The pitch bend bug is fixed and will be available in version 1.0.17

The MAC OSX beta release of Fathom is ready.

So I need some beta testers with a host running on their MAC.
I have run the interface successfully on my MAC test system but have not yet tried the audio.
The beta version is mono only.
If you are interested please respond below and I will send you a zip file.

OK, We have several volunteers already, that will be even better for testing.

Since there's a few of you, I have placed the download on the web site members page.

This is the first MAC release so there are bound to be some bugs.
You can report them here or to the support email.

Thanks all for your help on this!

I bought Fathom last week and I'm having a lot of fun with it already!

However, i can't automate parameters in Bitwig Studio (Windows 10), and I would love to see an amp-device added to give more control over signal levels..

I'm downloading the Mac beta right now

Edit: Also in Sierra automation doesn't work for Bitwig

Downloading for MacOS now, will report back

Soldeh, Which dials are you trying to automate?

Also, what exactly is happening?
Do they not show up at all in the list,
or are they just not changing?

I just tested it again and it is still working in Ableton.
