KarmaFX - Synth Modular v0.99 (Pc/Donationware)



Changes:
* Added auto-pitchbend to "Tune" knob in NotePitch module (Thanks Rick, for the idea!).
Enable by clicking on "Enable pitchbend" in right click menu and choose the desired range.
* Changed internal buffer size to reduce overall memory usage (Unfortunatly this change requires a full install, online update won't work).
* Added Stereo module with left/right volume control and -0dB, -3dB, -4.5dB and -6dB pan law panning.
* Added external waveform (.wav) import feature to the Additive module.
* Wav files can now be dragged and dropped onto the sampler module and the Additive module to load/import external samples.
The Sampler can also load multiple files this way.
* Added support for module presets. Right click on caption to activate the caption popup and choose "Presets" to access the presets submenu.
Presets are stored in KarmaFX_Synth/Presets and named according to module class and type.
* Changed "KarmaFX SFX" bank name to "KarmaFX Effect" (for input effects) and added "KarmaFX SoundFX" bank for synth sound effects.
* Added extra external waveforms to the Additive module.
* Added Pad module (inspired by Paul Nasca's padsynth algorithm), which features Bandwith and Bandwith Scale controls, and where it's possible to edit waveform, harmonic magnitude, harmonic profile and the overall frequency response curve.
* Bugfix: New Patch->Simple Effect was broken in 0.98. Fixed.
* Bugfix: Sidechain knob modulation won't clip to range anymore.
* Bugfix: Faster and safer memory resize functions in reverb code.
* Bugfix: Popup windows would destroy the GUI when dragged in Cakewalk Sonar.
Fixed by subclassing a different window and changing the window's style flags. (Tested in Sonar 6 Trial).
* Bugfix: Missing mousewheel support fixed in Sonar, Cubase SX and FL-Studio.
* Bugfix: Trigger in Sampler module was broken since 0.97. Fixed. (Thanks Synchro!)
* Bugfix: Sampler now outputs silence when busy loading samples.
* Bugfix: Better error handling when reading patches with mismatching parameter specs.
* Bugfix: Changing NotePitch's polyphonic mode now resets internal voices.
* Bugfix: Additive module would not restore correctly when using the built-in waveforms. Fixed.
* Bugfix: Using "Replace" module in a polyphonic patch could crash the synth. Fixed.
* Bugfix: Clicking "Rename" in Sampler would disable all right click menus. Fixed.
* Created a bunch of new patches and added some from the Flos bank! (Thanks Flos!)
