Ok I just got a weird idea for a one-cycle waveform design studio thingy. Can't wait to get home from work. I am very sure you all will go "it's a nice idea but it should do more".

Some updates posted at http://code.google.com/p/klystrack/ including a new OSX binary (thanks Deltafire)!

I did some updates on the rendering and also the synth that should cut down CPU usage but only noticed a minimal speedup. I'll add an option to disable oversampling in the synth which should make it a bit more usable on slower computers (high notes will sound worse like they did on some older builds). That might be the thing that happened that older build and the latest build.

I also experimented with OpenGL rendering with this library that should queue stuff properly but I noticed hardly any difference (still slow when the screen is full of patterns). So I guess this has to do for now. But I can still do something about the synth if it is too sluggish.

I'll make editing faster, I just threw some kind of delay there. That save bug is weird to say at least... I hope you didn't lose any meaninful work, sorry!

Edit: The OK button action is done so that it just pushes a new event that is essentially clicking the filename field and pressing return... what. And they changed keyboard stuff in 2.0 so of course it doesn't work.

P.S. I just got the 64-bit Linux build running (and without the "can't enter a pattern" bug).

Here's the Linux package: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/119 … 1_i386.deb

(Yes, the pattern colors are fruity and you can't set them yet)

For patterns, not yet. I was going to add it today. Generally, though, there are quite a few colors on screen at once.

Chrome says that when the file is "rare" as in not many people downloaded it yet or something like that. Definitively no malware on my computer.

Text colors etc. might be off because of the new renderer and how it handles the color tinting. I need to fix the offending themes.

I'm getting something like 20 % use on my 3.4 GHz i7 (I think we are processor bros!) when I have 1x1 pixel size and almost full screen and play a song that fills a good part of the pattern view but it drops to about 12 % if use the 2x2 pixel size (1x1 would be too damn small for me anyways). And it gets even better with 3x3. Maybe your netbook can handle it if you just make the window a bit smaller?

I guess I need to look into the rendering even further, too bad the SDL guys aren't very interested into improving the library in situations like this.

Soon you don't even have to use Parallels.

After I sort out a problem with Windows file permissions I will post the SDL2 port. Not too many new features but it shouldn't hog the CPU anymore.
