Using Creamware Pulsar Card.
Audio Setting to ASIO causes
Device could not be opened
FF9-5-0044 [800004005]
Trying to save as VST causes huge list of cant save as vsti yet...
Have I missed the amplifier module ?
Moving cutoff or adsr gain n demo circuit causes ZIPPER ? noise even at 1024 buffer.
CRASH:
NEW circuit just input F to osc to FFT. Start FFT (red slider) causes
INSTRUCTION AT 0x00457645 referenced memory at 0x00000004 Memory could not be read.
OK causes same thing but at 0x73dd1351 ref mem at 0x00000004
(Windows XP SP1 Creamware Pulsar card Matrox G450 512MB RAM.)
PS How do you make your own knobs and include your own background BMP

Thanks a lot midigod, very useful information.
INSTRUCTION AT 0x00457645 referenced memory at 0x00000004 Memory could not be read.
That's the kind of information that really helps, I'll be able to trace the exact line of code that causes the problem.
I'm working on having all the components supporting VSTi.
By amplifier would you possibly mean a multiplier?
You can go inside an existing knob and see how it works ( just type "LP89" with the focus on the schematic to get you to advanced mode ), if I have time I'll post a tutorial.
There is a bitmap component but I havent used it for quite a while, so probably it doesnt work anymore, I'll check it and fix it if needed.

Yup, the bitmap module bugs. Crashed a couple of times on me when loading 24bit bitmaps. It never crashed when using 16 color or 256 color.
However, I was never able to get the bitmaps to show in the VSTi view nor in a CustomV screen. I probably did it wrong but this is how I tried:
FileDialog -> Bitmap -> vstV
I did get a correctly sized black object (covering anything else I had under it, like a white RRect or similar) but no display of the bitmap image.
Cheers!

btw, Jorge, our computer coding guru at school has apparently been working for quite a while on a smiliar project, except is even more low level. He's also trying to keep it completely 'system unaware', that is, the computer OS itself would have no knowledge of what the user is doing in the software.. dunno, sounds freaky to me but he showed some very early builds and it looks crazy. You two should get together and pick eachothers brains, I'm sure something wonderful would come out of it. 😉

I've deleted my first reply to your post by mistake, so here goes another version of it.
The bitmap component was working a few months ago but things changed quite a lot since then and I wasnt expecting it to work anymore. I intend to fix it soon as it is an important component.

It would be great if you could get him to join this forum, we could start an online discussion.

With synthmaker you can go as low as components that represent one machine code instruction, I cant imagine how you can go lower than that.
