What's new in quiver 1.1

Mar 5, 2012
  • Added new filter types.
  • Added dropdown to control length of envelopes.
  • Added ability to save and load individual module presets.
  • Enabled external modulation of legato mode.
  • Added non-hex values to MIDI assign dropdown.
  • Added mouse over descriptions to module connectors.
  • Renamed Wavetable Oscillator to Paderizer Oscillator.
  • Fixed problem with installer on windows, which would select wrong folder.
  • Fixed bug where visual feedback area would not correctly redraw.

New in quiver 1.0.1 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed a bug that allowed VoiceMix module to be moved.
  • Fixed a bug in the visual feedback for the Envelope module.
  • Fixed a problem with license files.

New in quiver 1.0 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Demo mode. Quiver will start glitching after about 15 minutes of usage if no license file is present.
  • Significant performance improvements on Windows.
  • GUI performance improvements for Windows and especially for Wine.
  • New presets, for a total of 105.

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 13 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed a regression that prevented MIDI/parameter assigns from loading correctly.
  • Optimized the Wavetable Oscillator, especially with regards to the memory use when the paderizer is enabled.

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 12 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed a bunch of race conditions, which would lead to occasional crashes on LFO insert, comb spectrum operation insert, etc.
  • Fixed a couple of visual glitches

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 11 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed a problem where wavetable oscillator parameters would sometimes not load correctly
  • Fixed a GUI problem when using the maximum number of modulation targets
  • Fixed a glitch with the amount parameter when deleting modulation targets.
  • Fixed a possible crash when modulating the Equalizer
  • Fixed a problem when setting modulation amounts via keyboard
  • Improved robustness of number inputs by keyboard
  • Fixed a problem with the "amount" parameter for the Shape module
  • Fixed other minor GUI issues.
  • Fixed a potential crash in the module connection logic.
  • Fixed a potential crash when modulating oscillator pitches

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 10 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed memory corruption bug.
  • Fixed filter clicks in some hosts

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 9 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Punqtured overhauled the factory preset bank, and added 11 new presets for a total of 57.
  • Changed phase offset for generated waveforms in wavetable oscillator. This creates more 'natural' waveforms, which will hopefully improve the sound, especially in the bass range. It may change the sound of some presets slightly, in particular those that use distortion on a wavetable oscillator.
  • Fixed bug in visual feedback drawing.
  • Improved voice stealing algorithm, and fixed potential crash when playing many simoultaneous voices.
  • Fixed temp file problem on windows
  • Reordered context menus for spectrum operators and module insertion
  • Minor GUI fixes and improvements.
  • Fixed GUI sluggishness of wavetable oscillator module
  • Correctly report preset name to host
  • Added version information to logo

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 8 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed error on modulation page.
  • Lightened the colorscheme (teal&orange, classic) and started working towards customizable colors.

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 7 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Added visual feedback - currently available for envelope and wavetable oscillator modules.
  • Other minor GUI improvements.
  • Allowed for external modulation to influence legato settings.
  • Increased lower limit for low cut in Equalizer, to prevent filter instability.
  • Fixed potential garbage output edge case. (Inspired by SynTracker debug output)
  • Fix bug where repeatedly note on'ing the same note (without note off's) would result in crash.
  • Fixed a crash in ModWheel and PitchBend modules

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 6 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed a couple of bugs introduced by event timing changes in beta 5.
  • Oversampled Equalizer module to fix instability issue at extreme settings.
  • Fixed Equalizer math bug.
  • Fixed an oversight on the modulation page; it was possible to drag modules between voice and effects sections, which lead to a crash.
  • Changed output of Sample&Hold module to be consistent with other modulation modules.

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 5 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Even MORE accurate event timing
  • Overhauled modulation system to improve discontinuity timing (for e.g. saw and square waves), and perform better
  • Note logic change: Playing a note which is already playing would previously fade out the playing voice in a few milliseconds. The voice will now keep playing, and fade out normally. This sounds better in most cases, and also seems to be the industry standard, although CPU usage can increase if the musician is not careful with long release times.
  • Fixed two minor issues with parameter smoothing.

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 4 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed GUI redraw bug
  • More accurate event timing
  • Added parameter smoothing
  • Fixed wavetable oscillator bug, where output would VERY rarely be garbage

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 3 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed bug where Midi CC messages would sometimes not correctly update GUI
  • A few visual improvements for knobs and sliders

New in quiver 1.0 Beta 2 (Mar 5, 2012)

  • Fixed GUI layout bug
  • Fixed Win7 font error
  • Fixed instrument unload/reload problem in Renoise
