What Are They Building In There?
From the original Analog Industries archive. Some links and images from that era no longer resolve.
We’ve got Big Things brewing at both the Rocky Mountain R&D Facility and down here in Tempe at Human Resources And Marketing And Other Shit. The picture above is representative of one aspect of those Big Things.
One of the other aspects is something I can talk about, and that’s the Eos refresh. Our next release is a maintenance release of Eos, and I’m sorely tempted to give the UI a bit of a goose to put it in line with Axon, D3, and Phosphor. Not all dark and shit, and the layout wouldn’t change at all, nor the controls. I’d just get rid of the 3D surround and change the fonts, basically, so it looked like the other current stuff.
Other than that, the AU side will get some bug fixes related to automation that people have been noticing since Logic 9.1.x came out, and the Windows side will get the 64-bit VST. Functionally, nothing will change with this release. Can’t say when it will be done, as it depends on whether we do the UI or not.

Clock divider?
Hardware sequencer!
Please

I'm intrigued! I love the teasers here.
Will the EOS update take care of the issue where opening a Logic project in 64-bit mode makes all EOS instances show the correct decay time in the GUI but play the full 10sec of decay?
There are a lot of AU-related issues that will be fixed. The problem is that when we do that, all your existing projects that use Eos as an AU will need to be dealt with. The AU side of things will _not_ be seamless, I'm sorry to say. The VST should be problem-free, as there aren't, as far as we're aware, any bugs on the VST side of things.

A Software Process Geek Question: How are you building on multiple platforms? I'm a big fan of CMake for this sort of thing. I use CMake all the livelong day in my day job and I just redid the PaulStretch build stuff as an all-CMake setup.
The build recipes are very concise, it handles most of the low level configuration automatically, and it can generate Makefiles and/or project files for Visual Studio, XCode, Eclipse, etc.
Mmm, triplets.
Software strobe timer for turntables? Sweet.
Whack-A-Mole algorithm?
Walsh Function Synth?
@sean: Yeah, because that'd _really_ sell. The history of audio software developers is littered with failed attempts to make Walsh function synthesis interesting.
