HexoSynth Release v0.1.0-alpha-2

The changelog:

  • Bugfix: Keyboard events should now be properly forwarded from the Host
    via the VST2 API. Confirmed to work in Ardour 6.
  • Bugfix: Version label is now wider with a smaller font.
  • Change: Middle mouse button in fine adj area removes modulation amount.
  • Change: Resized the window from 1400x700 to 1400x787 to fit into the
    Full HD aspect.
  • Project: Added two sub crates: jack_standalone and vst2

The things to keep in mind:

  • HexoSynth presents itself as VST effect plugin, not instrument.
  • Keyboard might not work, because the VST API of HexoSynth does not implement the keyboard events yet.
    But the most recent version fixed at least usage in Ardour.
  • Saving preset also does not work yet.
    • In case you get the host to not intercept the keyboard, you can hit F4 and save the preset to "init.hxy" that will be saved to the current working directory. On startup HexoSynth will read that file and load the patch from that. You can do that eg. in Carla.
  • This is just a preview version, there is lots of things to come. A beta release is still months away.
