midiStroke 1.3 - Universal Binary + bug fixes

bigbadotis · Post by **bigbadotis** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 9:45 am

I've updated midiStroke to be a Universal Binary. While I was messing with it, I also removed the "feature" that caused so many people problems in 1.12 - the one that let you use a midi keyboard as a ascii keyboard replacement... the one that nobody used (I don't even think the guy who requested it ever used it).

I also set it so that the application window and associated tables are resizable, so that the need for scrolling is reduced.

Other random bug fixes were made that aren't worth pointing out, particularly in regards to connecting and disconnecting MIDI sources.

I haven't done the french version yet but will hopefully get to it tomorrow (sorry Michel!)

I will also be open sourcing midiStroke soon... just need to do a little more code commenting and get my head around the licensing / sourceforge stuff. Please let me know if there are any problems with the new version! - Charlie

I guess this is a bump... it's been a few days and I want to make sure that nobody is having any problems with it before I announce the release in other places.

any feedback is appreciated.

u said somthing once about an app for Mac where you can have two different midi controllers using keystrokes. is this still happening? it'd be nice if i could control somethings with my padKontrol, and other things with my remotesl at the same time without switching in midistroke the midi port

I experiences crashes quiet often with the midistroke I'm currently on.

quite possibly. I removed some functionality that nobody was using but caused a lot of people problems.

Try it out and let me know. And feel free to send me a crash report. - Charlie

Well, no, not with midiStroke, but there is another app that has been in the works forever that will let you do that.

The problem is I'm in grad school now and haven't had time to work on it. I tried to finish it last summer before school started and failed... anyways, summer is here in a month and a half and I hope to knock it out then.

Any word on the new app for multiple controllers Charlie?
Also want to say thanks for creating midiStroke... great app.

hate to harrass a nice freeware provider suchas you BigBadOtis, but do you think that the app you were working on for multiple controllers to use like Midistroke will be released?
or does anyone know of one for Mac OSX so that I can use keystrokes on multiple controllers? as of now, midistroke only works with one controller at a time

I've actually made a lot progress on it in the past couple of weeks... hopefully there will be a beta in late september / early october. - Charlie

Gotta say that this App is at the heart of my performance. Soon as I get some cash I'm throwing some your way dude.

Thanks a million.
