- - 0.2.4: - - according to flext 0.2.3 changed sample type to t_sample (S) - - xrecord~: fixed mix mode bug - - fixed argument buffer problem - - 0.2.3: - - using flext 0.2.2 - xsample is now a library under MaxMSP - - cleaner gcc makefile - - xgroove~, xrecord~: added "all" message to select entire buffer length - - xgroove~, xplay~: revisited dsp methods, restructured the code, fixed small interpolation bugs - - xgroove~, xplay~: added linear interpolation (message "interp 2") - - enabled 0 output channels -> xgroove~: position output only - - xgroove~: added bidirectional looping (message "loop 2") - - 0.2.2: - - using flext 0.2.0 - - xrecord~ for PD: new flext brings better graphics update behavior - - xrecord~: recording position doesn't jump to start when recording length is reached - - fixed bug with refresh message (min/max reset) - - xgroove~: position (by pos message) isn't sample rounded anymore - - reset/refresh messages readjust dsp routines to current buffer format (e.g. channel count) - - corrected Max/MSP assist method for multi-channel - - fixed xplay~ help method - - changed syntax to x*~ [channels=1] [buffer] for future enhancements (MaxMSP only, warning for old syntax) - - fixed small bug concerning startup position in xgroove~ and xrecord~ - - fixed deadly bug in xplay~ dsp code (only active with template optimization) - - 0.2.1: - - no leftmost float inlet for position setting - use pos method - - changed dsp handling for flext 0.1.1 conformance - - workarounds for buggy/incomplete compilers - - prevent buffer warning message at patcher load (wait for loadbang) - - fixed bug: current pos is reset when changing min or max points - - 0.2.0: - - first version for flext - - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - - - TODO list: - - general: - - - do a smooth (line~) mixin in xrecord~ help patch - - features: - - multi-buffer handling (aka multi-channel for pd) - - vasp handling - - performance comparison to respective PD/Max objects - - anti-alias filter? (possible?) - - - delay min/max changes when cur pos in cross-fade zone - - tests: - - reconsider startup sequence of set buffer,set units,set sclmode,set pos/min/max - - bugs: - - PD: problems with timed buffer redrawing (takes a lot of cpu time) - flext bug? - - Apple MPW doesn't correctly compile template optimization - - Max help files aren't correctly opened due to xsample objects residing in a library (FIXED for OSX!!!) - |
