Bugs
GUI
- Need to move window on startup to show notes
- Changing the number of bars needs to resize the notes
- workaround: resize window
- Should lockout main window while subwindows are up?
First selected page in Page Bank should be the first (not the last)workaround: use the "close" button to close the window
Notes aren't being displayed during Keyboard recordingdon't popup so many generate windows (when you click generate several times)(repeat)Repeatedly Clicking the Generate button brings up multiple windows
Close mic recording window using the 'x' button, reopen it (it's tiny and empty!)
Generation
- Generate across many pages. Modifying notes in one page can modify notes in other.
- Generator is likely copying notes from previous pages by reference, not by value.
Csound
- Csound server uses cpu cycles when idle
- Csound server seems to forget about certain instruments
- INIT ERROR in instr 101: Invalid ftable no. 330.000000
- a1 flooper2 1 kpitch .25 .5 .1 itab 0 iskip
- INIT ERROR in instr 101: function table not found
- a1 flooper2 1 kpitch .25 .5 .1 itab 0 iskip
- T213.880 - note deleted. i101 had 2 init errors
- Send note offs for tied notes when stop is clicked
- CSoundClient performs no error-checking, program crashes on broken pipe.
