If you checked out our previous article on developer hitchhikr‘s Protrekkr program, then you’ll be glad to know that the dev has released a couple of updates that not only extends the app’s functionalities but also increases the capabilities of its PSP replay routine feature.
Here are the changelogs for the past two Protrekkr releases. The PSP-centric updates have been bolded to make them easier to spot.
v1.90
- Added a scrollbar beside patterns.
- The tracker can now load all these .wav file formats (mono or stereo) :
- 8-bit integer.
- 12-bit integer.
- 16-bit integer.
- 24-bit integer.
- 32-bit integer.
- 32-bit float.
- 64-bit float.
- Added an option to render a module as 32 bit (float) .wav file.
- Inverted the right and left mouse buttons functions in patterns.
- Fixed an issue with the loop editor.
- Patterns now automatically scroll when using the right mouse button (also work when selecting a block).
- Added multi notes channels, they can be used to trigger several notes / track at the same time in order to make chords or to play several instruments in the same track and route them to the same row effect / dsp effect (thus allowing to considerably reduce the dsp usage and also introduce some modularity which could be useful, especially for the PSP replay).
- Note that these channels are shared with the polyphony ones.
- Improved volume ramping.
- Keys repeat was disabled when editing note columns.
- Added LCTRL+TAB and LCTRL+LSHIFT+TAB to cycle through the notes of a track.
- Added LALT+A and LALT+LSHIFT+A to select one or all notes/instruments columns of a track.
- Modified the record function (for a better one, i hope).
- Some edition commands weren’t working on last track.
- Midi channels polyphony implemented.
- Improved Mac OS X keyboard handling a bit.
- Compressor wasn’t set right when loading .ptp files.
v1.93
- Resampler improved, should produce much less aliasing.
- Fixed a small issue involving the cache memory in the PSP replay.
- Added an option to show or hide the bottom panel in order to display more patterns rows (Shortcut: LSHIFT+ESCAPE to toggle the view)
- Left shift wasn’t active while editing data columns of patterns to enter digits.
- Added global lists for instruments and synths, that should improve the ergonomy a bit.
- Samples weren’t re-initiliazed correctly after a “New Module” command was issued.
- Fixed a bug in the 2nd oscillator of the synth core when using custom waveforms.
- Fixed the rand commands in the synth tab.
- Midi controller modification command (0x90) wasn’t accessible anymore in panning row, fixed.
- Fixed an issue that could occur with rand() function under linux.
- Introduced zoomed tracks; Each track can be zoomed independantly and will be displayed with a bigger font.
- Track volume wasn’t correctly re-initialized when only instrument column was filled without any note.
- Midi notes off command was broken.
- Effect 0xAxx (Set Random Cutoff) slightly modified, the xx value is now the amplitude of the calculated random value from 0 to 0xff.
- Implemented midi in/out for Linux and Mac OS X.
- Fixed a bug in the recording mode.
- Recording now starts at the current pattern line instead of restarting from it’s beginning.
- An extra note was pasted after names input when editing mode was turned on.
