We’ve decided to start posting our change notes on our blog. Previously these were only available here.
March 12, 2024
It has been a while since our last update! Our plans for this fall were disrupted when I came down with Long COVID in October; it took about five months to recover fully. I’ve been gradually returning to work since January, with a focus on modernizing our development tools. The immediate output of this is native support for Apple Silicon — but it will make developing new features and ports (such as plugins for Mac) a much quicker process.
This update doesn’t bring any new features and breaks support for some older systems (representing fewer than 1% of imitone users in the last year). Under the hood, it’s a total code refresh. This might fix some bugs not listed below, because we’ve updated to the latest versions of various code libraries used in imitone.
Changes:
- Universal Mac OS build with Apple Silicon support.
- Mac OS 10.12 is no longer supported.
- Windows XP is no longer supported.
- 32-bit Windows is no longer supported.
Fixes:
- Sound can now be played to devices with more than two channels.
- Note, imitone only plays sound on channels 1 and 2.
- Fixed some issues when restarting audio devices.
- Fixed an issue when number of ASIO channels is changed.
- It’s still necessary to refresh if channels are increased.
