When using “Tegeler Raummaschine”, SL stops doing things and just waits…
This program code is still broken in its roots. It needs a complete rewriting and bugfixing all over the place.
(I honestly wish this would not be necessary, but it is, imho.)
The VST interface still needs a better realtime usage.
As long, as the program behaves as erratically as it does concerning stability and reliability, it is just a toy tool, not more, not less.
There is a lot of shiny, sparkling, glittering marketing going on, but …(no, this would not be polite to say…)
Since SL is supposed to work surgically with sound, in its actual state, it still looks like a rusty toolkit. Imagine going to a dentist and all there is, is just old, rusty stuff around. This is what SL feels like.
And no! I am no longer willing to report any more details on these kind of issues - please check your code from first to last line and compare with your own specs (VST) and fix it! Do not use AI! Yes, this might take hours, days, weeks, months to do so. But instead of introducing more and more unfinished stuff, fix the basics! Make the code solid as a rock!
It is way better to produce high quality, instead of getting lost in premature quantity.
Here another example of another nerv-wracking issue:
-
Select some interval
-
Invert selection
-
Now, Delete Time
-
What can be expected?
This? NO !!!
Now, almost everything is gone.
This is just not intuitive.
I would expect the left and right part gone, not everything.
(What would you expect, when selecting even more complicated areas and invert them?)
This just suckz and this is for years now.
So, the “Delete Time”- module/function does something … but what exactly for every case?
As it is: Quick and dirty, just for being there? Where is the quality check?
This is what I mean by looking at the code!
SL is an ingenious concept of software.
Great ideas, unfinshed, incomplete, bugs all over the place… find it, again and again.
