Bugs
GUI
- First selected page in Page Bank should be the first (not the last)
Notes aren't being displayed during Keyboard recording- Need to move window on startup to show notes
don't popup so many generate windows (when you click generate several times)Close mic recording window using the 'x' button, reopen it (it's tiny and empty!)workaround: use the "close" button to close the window
- Changing the number of bars needs to resize the notes
- workaround: resize window
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.
