Mise à jour

1.24b2 en date du 22 mars !

 

1.24b2:

Fix: sending MIDI Program Changes could potentially trigger multiple times, leading to a ‘preset missing’ message or possibly a crash.

Fix: In 1.24b1 Windows, if Serum Presets folder was missing, user was not prompted to choose the new folder location.

Fix: using MPE->Macros features would provide incorrect depth for the MPE to some destinations (if the associated macro had multiple destinations).

Fix: Text files accompanying wavetables set to interpolation on wouldn’t register as interpolated

1.24b1:

Fix: value tips were not drawing properly for Matrix curves

Fix: improved support for Windows non-english usernames

Fix: on noises missing message, 1.23x did not display the missing path

Fix: 1.23x MacOS SerumFX AU was not passing AUval on older Macs

Fix: mousing issue using alt-dragging on the mini halo (e.g. when modulating semi fine).

Fix: in WT Editor, with a grid size at zero, an previous Grid size hilight could appear on the waveform

Fix: in WT Editor, Multiselection zoom thumbnails would leave graphics traces

Fix: MPE is now disabled by default when prefs are created.

1.23b9:

Fix: in prior 1.23b versions, controls would not respond if value tips was disabled in preferences.

Fix: scrollbar visibility for WT Editor thumbnails

Fix: formula parser handling of NaN values

Add: WT Editor zoom size settings are maintained if window is closed or resized

1.23b8:

• Fixes a memory issue in previous 1.23 versions which would most commonly surface as "multiple instances not playing backl"

• Fixes the Multiband Comp "warmup time" (volume swell) on very first playback of an instance

 

1.23b7:

• Pressing Return was needed for entering SN# successfully in some DAWs

• WT Editor formula editor, NaN values derived from formula calculations could get passed to WT.

1.23b5:

• multiple MIDI sysex events in a single buffer could cause a crash
• Clicks when mono was enabled (with Legato off) and notes overlapped.

1.23b2 to b3 (minor update):

- fix: SN# is now accepted without pressing RETURN first

- fix: Maschine host stores plugin window sizes

- fix: oversmpling default setting in config file was not loading.

'1.23b2 changes:

• added: default oversampling level now (optionally) can be set in Serum.cfg fle (otherwise 2x as usual)
• added: WT Editor->Add/Remove menu->Reduce submenu: thins the number of frames, in order to easily keep only every th frame.
• added: ability to get a separate vertical grid size for the LFO with text entry: double-click on grid size (assuming pref enabled) and type e.g. 8,12 for 8 horizontal and 12 vertical grid lines.
• added: secondary sort method for preset browser, Serum will remember the previous column you clicked for ordering and use that as a secondary ordering: e.g. click Location column, presets are sorted by location. Then click Rating column and the presets will be sorted by Rating, but the sorting within a given rating will be ordered by Location.
• added: alt-drag LFO tile to WT now an offcial feature / works on Windows too
• added: preset name is now rescanned on Serum instances re-opening (for checkmark / menu advancing)
• added: resizable interface (lower-right corner), zoom menu in top-left (Serum logo) and preference/setting in Zoom Menu for default window size.
• added: if oversampling is set in confg to non-2x the oversampling lock will also enable.
• added: “Export All as Single-Cycle Waves” to the export menu in WT editor: exports WT as a set of individual single-cycle wave fles.
• added: skin support. zoom menu (Serum logo in top-left) will select skin. A few points about skins:
• added: custom .ttf font support for skins - see colormap thread here in Serum user forum for example (in download) You can e.g. copy the folder "Default" in Skins subfolder, and make changes to any images. there is no need to include images that you do not alter - Serum will look to Default skin folder as a fallback.
• new Scream Filter, Dist.Comb 1 and 2 flter types
• Ringmod flter needs less “warm up time” to respond to audio signal.
• Ringmod and S H flters custom flter display instead of frequency response plot (which was of little value for these flter types).
• Preliminary MPE support. You will see the MPE settings in the main menu, and can be enabled/disabled by default in the preferences.
• Preset Hybridize: takes visible presets in browser (e.g. flter to a type) and randomly combines part of seeral presets.
• Promethium Skin by Lance Thackeray as a second factory skin
• Preference to the confg fle for scaling the automation smoothing rate. This will affect onscreen controls, MIDI CC’s, and song/host project automation. It is not advised to change this parameter (as existing project automation might sound different), it’s a tweak offered for “power users” or fringe situations where less automation smoothing is desired (e.g. for rapid response over automation parameters). you can scale it (e.g. [50] would be 50% smoothing, or twice as fast. Accepted values are 1 to 800 (0 = default which is 100%). Rename or delete your confg fle to have this entry created in the confg fle.Added: signifcant CPU reduction when modulating WT Pos.
• Custom (user text entry) category in browser
• WT Editor FFT bins right-click additional feature: “Snap vertical draw to quarters” quantizes FFT Bin mouseclicks to 0, 25, 50, 75, 100%
• WT Editor FFT bins right-click additional feature: “Scale Freq Values by Bin Index”. This makes higher bins scale relative to their bin location, for example normally a saw wave would show the bins scaling lower as you go to higher bins (which is the true amplitude values needed for a saw). When this feature is enabled, drawing a fat line across the FFT Bins at 50% will produce a saw.
• unison phase memory trigger (MemTrig): Triggers the unison voices with the same relative phases each note on. This makes an effect similar to a sample, where the unison will start identical each new note (without the “laser zap” effect of having all phases simply zeroed). To activate, turn RA D and PHASE knobs to 100% on an oscillator to enable MemTrig. Lower the Rand knob temporarily (while playing a note or notes) to get a new randomized set of phases. These phases will save in the preset/song.
• WT Editor -> Process Menu -> Set Spectra same for all Frames (from current): applies FFT bins (spectrum) from current frame to all frames. This feature may not be terribly useful beyond education, it was mostly added because it is an easy permutation of the next one:
• WT Editor -> Process Menu -> Set Phases same for all Frames (from current): applies the FFT phase information from current frame to all frames. This is useful to make all tables match in phases beyond just the fundamentals for e.g. solid/consistent sound during morphing.
• WT Editor -> Process -> "Subtract Spectra from other Osc": Removes the (relative amount) of harmonic content contained in the corresponding other oscillator. This applies to all frames (as the process menu always does).
• Retina/HiDPI support. (Skins note: 1x folder images are now only used for non-retina displays and when Serum is 100% size or smaller)
• noise osc direct out switch
• default preset: if you save a preset as default.fxp (or Default.fxp) located in /User subfolder of /Presets, Serum will load this preset on new instantiations of Serum.
• Fast matrix assignment for vibrato in Matrix drop-down menu (next unused LFO to Global tuning)
