BrainModular

New features
New interface design, more clear and compact.
Open Sound Control (OSC) compatibility: receive & send OSC messages.
New dispatcher data module: 1 in -> 8 out (lalo suggestion)
Load/Save VST presets & banks (*.fxp & *.fxb) (bobsled suggestion)

Fixed bugs:
Recall in the Preset Manager module with VST's
Selector module now works with audio flow
Many other small bugs?

Congrats. Amazing piece of software!!!

What's the WinPCap network installation do?

Whoa mahtazz, way to post at the same time as me!

Very nice update!

Winpcap is a kind of driver witch allows direct motoring of incoming lan packets.
It monitors all Lan Ports, from all remote computers.

With this small driver, you don't have to specify the port or IP address where you want to receive OSC messages.

It simplifies a lot the OSC configuration:
Just tell to Usine witch adapter you want to listen for messages (Gigabyte, Wifi, etc..) that all.

Very nice update indeed, but I encountered something with the preset manager that might have been there before: I may have misunderstood things, but isn't it so the preset manager should remember the state of all interface modules in the patch and not any other parameter settings?

This happened with a VST patch I'm fooling around with where I had put in a synchro module that still wasn't connected to anything. It seems that the preset manager also records the on/off state of the synchro; is this a bug or the intented behaviour? For me, it's ok that the preset contains most parameters in the modules without having to create interface design modules for everything, but I'm not quite sure that synchro start/stop should be remembered. Any other opinions

One other thing: Maybe I'm just using the wrong VSTs, but the interface doesn't show the parameter values when a new (VST) preset is selected.

hello,

the preset manager memorize all parameters of the patch, almost like if the patch was re-loaded. (not only interface panel)

I could isolate the synchro module from snap shot.
Your problem: You create a various versions of a funky groove at tempo 120 with presets, and your patch contains a "Synchro" module.
Now on stage you want to play your funky groove but the tempo as changed to 130 (your drummer speeds up...). If you recall a preset the tempo comes back to 120 as defined in the original preset.
It's a problem.

At the contrary, you can use presets to varies the bar length (from 4/4 to 5/5, etc), the tempo, and other syncro settings. (I do that often)

So what is the solution?

I could create a new param in the synchro module like 'tempo is preset isolated'? For example, in Reaktor, all parameters have this option.
Let's think about it.

One other thing: Maybe I'm just using the wrong VSTs, but the interface doesn't show the parameter values when a new (VST) preset is selected.

You are right, some VST doens't respond to Usine when you ask them to 'Update its params'. The params are changes in the VST it self, but I have noticed that, in particular situations, the changes aren't reported in Usine (often only partially).
I will take a look and try to "force" the update...strongly...

Bsork, you are now a specialist of strange bugs!
I like it.

I like the solution with having the parameter "isolated". Actually, I think that most parameters in the synchro module should be that way. It all depends on how one uses the program of course, and I suppose a lot of other users find it quite handy that all these parameters are stored in the presets. The reason I haven't noticed it before is because I don't really use presets much at all in Usine.

"a specialist of strange bugs!" ...hmmm... Maybe because I create some myself for a living?

Maybe because, like me, you are buggy yourself!
Like almost all musicians...
