Re: Sound to Light CPU Intensive=Problem
And yet another new beta with a nice new option related to the beat multiplier.
http://www.digiplay.nl/fs/
Changes from Beta 1.0.0.2 to Beta 1.0.0.3 (2009-11-26):
[NEW] Created a config button that switches S2L to config mode as more and more options needed a special button or place. Ofcourse the beat detection is not interrupted when switching to config mode. Hereby S2L is fully touchscreen accessible again.
[NEW] When using the beat multiplier there is an option to restart selected sequences to step 1 when a real beat is detected. This allows flashing of strobes or other fixtures on the beat.
[NEW] Nice new wooden look.
Good luck you all.

Re: Sound to Light CPU Intensive=Problem
And babies keep on coming out here:
Release notes for beta 1.0.0.5 (2009-12-01):
[CHANGE] S2L now sets a sequence to step 1 instead of restarting the sequence (FreeStyler 3.2.6 and higher only!). Herefore the sequence loop option does not have to be disabled anymore (but may be). This also fixes a problem when sequences were enabled in S2L while not switched on in FreeStyler.
Thanks to Raph for working with me!
Be aware that the restart to step 1 ONLY works with FreeStyler 3.2.6 and higher, which is about to be beta released to our beta testers.
Older versions of FS will not restart anymore, as they did with older versions of S2L.

Re: Sound to Light CPU Intensive=Problem
Since I've recieved quite a few requests for implementing a beat divider (the opposite of the beat multiplier, divide by 2,3,4,5,6...), I'm planning on implementing this one of these days.
So a new beta should come up somewhere next week or weeks to come.

Re: Sound to Light CPU Intensive=Problem
.... thinking of making it S3L
Release notes for beta 1.0.0.9 (2010-03-16):
- [NEW] Added "Beat Divider" functionality. With this function you can divide beats by 2,4,6 or 8. Meaning that every 2nd beat (if 2 is selected) the beat is send to FreeStyler, the other is not. You can use this function by swapping the Beat multiplier/divider with the new M/D button (Multiplier / Divider). When pressed, the interface changes slightly and the controls change to Divider controls. When pressed again, S2L switches back to the Multiplier functionality.

Re: Sound to Light CPU Intensive=Problem
A new version has been born:
Release notes for beta 1.0.0.10 (2010-11-06):
- [FIX] Closing the S2L application could cause an uncatched error while writing settings to file, crashing S2L as a result
- [CHANGE] Functionality change in beat multiplier: The "Off" button is removed and replaced by "1", meaning that when the multiplier is set to 1 and K/G (Keep on Going) is enabled, the beat triggers to FS will continue in the same rythm, even if the real beat is not there. You can turn this functionality to off by setting K/G to off.
