This textfile gives a description of the development with Delay Calculator. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 93-10-26...v1.0 Finally release after weeks of de-bugging my usage of GEM. This is the first official version. v1.0S (Swedish) and v1.0E (English) were released. Known bugs : No, not a single one...:-) The program CAN have some minor graphics errors in MultiTOS, but nothing that makes the program crash. 94-04-08...v1.1 Finally released after MONTHS of polishing, de-bugging and re-smurfing. This should be regarded as a MAJOR update. What's new: ----------- o The program is much more nice-looking now. o A new entry called BPM Calculator. The name says it all. read DELAY_CA.TXT for more info. o I've included a 3rd delay line in the delay calculation. o Manual totally re-written. Read it again, and you'll understand everything you didn't understand the first time. o The meduim-resolution RSC-file is now load:ed auto- magically. What's dropped: --------------- o The idea of letting a function to convert BPM/Hz to normal synthesizers irregular value-input (ex. LFO Speed 0-100), is also dropped. If you wonder why, try doing it for yourself. It would take too much time. But if I find another way (easy) to do this, I will re-consider it. o Also the MultiTOS idea is dropped. Use MultiDialog instead. Besides... It's not THAT important that it will multitask. What's considered: ------------------ o I will probably make the Hz-function style compatible in the next update (v1.2). o Note-representation of the delays. o The Delay Creator will probably be released with the v1.2. Only an English version was released. And still no bugs in sight. IMPORTANT! ---------- I LOVE SHAREWARE! People really do care about it... Hmpf! TWO registrations! It makes me wonder why I bother releasing it. If you want to see a v1.2 OUTSIDE my studio. I want to see some support. I wrote this program for my own needs, and if no-one is needing this program, I won't bother you. But the strange thing about it is, that EVERYBODY I've spoken with, especially those with Mac's, PC's or Amiga's, do think this is a wonderful program. So, send my a disk, and I'll let you know if there's any news at sight. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The program was written in GFA Basic v3.6, and the GEM interface was designed in WERCS from HiSoft. The program is compiled with a patched version of the GFA Compiler Lib., to make it error free in both Program- mode and accessory mode. The RSC-file for medium resolution, was created with the help from BigColor v1.05, which is a great colour-emulator for monochrome.
