Maxi-Patch 3.6.5: Higher Output Video Framerate
Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2006 5:16 am
Maxi-Patch version 3.6.5 (AO and AV) for OSX (Universal Binary) is ready for Fan Club members to download. The only new "feature" is higher output video framerate!
The higher output video framerate was achieved by running all the audio file waveform display stuff in the lowest priority thread. This leaves the bulk of the processor's power to devote to video output. The highest priority thread of all is still, of course, the vinyl control of audio + video. So the audio and video vinyl-controlled scratching is as tight as it can be. We simply sacrificed some latency on the audio file waveform display in order to allow much higher video output framerates. We hope this will keep you guys happy for a while!
