hi all

Recently a lot of things started to require a DSOut module with an out selected to work ok ( mainly displays and so on)

On the other side, Having a DSOUT active takes me some times to crash ( mainly when developing in a code module)

An idea to solve this ( a part from obviously ccorrecting the situation in DSOut) could be to have a Dummy Out module that simply killseverything we throw in but Makes Believe SM that we are connected to the outside world.

This module could be simple as "read all that comes and forget it" without all the hassle associated with a real DSOut/Audio Out of finding drivers and so on

The idea can be extended to MIDI IN/ ASIO IN too.

This request is in part related to this one

Opinions ?

Definitely needs changing to be more flexible, part of the problem is related to bugs recently introduced that should be easy to fix. The analyser should work on it's own without any sound going out as it used to.

That sounds good to me. I'd like to be able to do things that currently require a DS/ASIO out without having to use it!

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
