What's new in Ribs 1.2.4 Beta
Oct 2, 2019
- Fixes:
- Sandalone app: buffers filling after audio input device change
- Other changes:
- Added Roboto Mono font to distribution
New in Ribs 1.2.3 Beta (Oct 2, 2019)
- New features:
- FX mode to use Ribs without MIDI
- "Env" refill mode
- Standalone builds (multichannel not available yet)
- More stable “simple” filter model
- Formant filter
- Even gaps distribution option
- GUI rearrangement
- Improvements:
- REFILL THIS in common buf mode always refills common buf
- Buffers are filling only when the host is playing
- Simple smoothing on buffer and selection edges to prevent high freq clicks
- Filter envelope behavior with short notes
- Old ("reson") filter model frequency mapping precision
- MIDI CC value mapping for playrate and step params to set them more accurate
- When switching from POLY to MONO last used monophonic voice will be used for the next note if possible
- Increased max grain overlap
- Gain compensation in grain overlaps
- Minor optimizations
- Fixes:
- AGC speed change from manual to auto
- Grain length computation with large negative step value
- If filter cut-off is proportional to the playrate it takes into account buffer selection while scratching the waverorm
- Reaction on changing sample rate on the fly
- Refill tempo logic with common buf
- State saving and restore problem from v1.2.0
- Minor GUI related issues
- Other changes:
- Default refill mode is NOTES now, default wobble int and ext are on (easier for new users)
- Default gaps mono/stereo param state is stereo
- Menu for picked buf param is called on r click of the picked tab, menu for request picked buf param is called by r clicking any other tab.
- Shows tooltips by default
- Known issues:
- Standalone build:
- App may require restart after audio and midi settings were changed
New in Ribs 1.1.0 Beta (Oct 2, 2019)
- New features:
- Obsolete buffer contents are considered valid
- "Run" refill mode
- Channel configuration for hosts with channel range restrictions
- Scratching playhead on mouse drag + added "aiming playhead" param
- Beat ratio matrix randomization parameter + "align others" menu item in ratio controls
- "Use matrix for NOTES" param
- When filter follows a note its cut-off frequency used as minimal freq
- Shows buffer update position
- Improvements:
- Flt envelope control
- Flt glide during playhead glide
- Pitch control in NOTES mode with small step values
- Increased max grain overlap
- Gliding from very long grains (BEAT mode included)
- Refill tempo event timing has per-voice time offset
- Parameter names and descriptions
- Zooming on the waveform sides
- Controls that have no effect are grayed out
- Fixes:
- Multi-input extrude
- Menu items checked state display
- Selection end drawing
- Multiple grain engine fixes
- Removed "show tooltips" param ("aiming playhead" is on its place now)
- Rare partial GUI freezing bug
- Known issues:
- Playhead glide time may vary in granular modes
