Cantabile 4 Alpha Available

Hi @Thijon,

Thanks for reporting this. This is the one bug that’s stopping V4 from going to beta and I’ve been chasing it for a few weeks now but never been able to reproduce it. If you can repro it, I could really use your help to get it sorted.

Would you mind sending me an email with a copy of the song, any linked racks, your background rack and a copy of your settings file. (available via Tools -> Open Settings Folder… settings.json is file I need).

I sent you the files. All you need to do to reproduce the crash is:

  1. Open the song
  2. Enable live mode
  3. Switch to song state 2 (which is linked to “2 Linked”). You don’t need to use the binding in my background rack. Just clicking the state in the ticker bar suffices.

I suspect that the background rack is not actually involved. It might be a good idea to try the song on its own first. I.e. with default settings and no background rack.

Hi @Brad, I might have noticed an issue with V4 (I am on latest build 4028).

When I convert a Linked Rack to an Embedded Rack, I lose all the bindings from the Linked Rack. The Embedded Rack will have none. Is that intentional behaviour, a bug, or have I missed a setting on this?

I came across this with an Superwave Equinoxe Rack, but found it as well with an Omnisphere Rack, so I assume it is a generic issue

Hi @adderoo,

Thanks for reporting. This has actually been a bug since v3. Fixed for next v4 build.

Brad

Build 4029 is now available and fixes a long standing critical bug in GuiKit’s virtual list implementation. (thanks @Thijon for the help). It also fixes the lost bindings mentioned by @adderoo above.

Assuming nothing else crops up, I think this is ready to move to beta (finally).

Hi @Brad, thanks for the update. I confirm the lost bindings issue while converting to embedded rack is solved indeed with 4029.

Glad I could help!

I think there may be a problem with build 4029. When I open my primary setlist, I now get the following error.

When I click OK, Cantabile crashes without giving me an opportunity to send a crash report.

When I reinstall 4028, the setlist loads properly.

There is definitely an issue with that build… build 4030 should address it and will be up soon. is up now.

Hi @brad, I just noticed an issue with Build 4032 (but may go back further)
I’m using Korg M1 V2.2.1. with Preset Model: Use Plugins Programs
I am unable to use Cantabile’s plugin menu to “Rename Program …”. The dialog box opens with the name of the existing name "Init Combi ", but after I edit the name and click [OK], the name does not get updated in the Cantabile Plugin Preset List.
I also tested with Korg WaveStation and there the rename does work.
I also confirmed that the issue occurs in 3096, so it may be related to the M1, but it seems strange that it’s Cantabile’s Rename function that is not working.
Any ideas?
Thank you - David

If this is only one plugin where this is happening, and it’s when the preset model is “Use Plugin’s Programs” then this is probably an issue with the plugin itself.

When in this preset model, Cantabile doesn’t store the preset names. Instead the new name is passed to the plugin and the plugin is supposed to remember it. So… if it’s not being stored then it’s probably a plugin issue.

Closing this topic, continued here: Cantabile 4 Beta.
