TX16Wx at download sites

As you may or may not have noticed, TX16Wx is available for download from a number of "freeware/shareware download sites", such as Softpedia, toggle etc etc. Quite often old beta versions.
I would like to point out that this is nothing I sanction or support. In fact, the TX16Wx license quite clearly states that it is not permitted to redistribute the software without expressed permission. I.e. these sites are hosting TX16Wx downloads without my consent and in violation of the license. (Although at least Softpedia was nice enough no notify me about it).

At first I thought I would issue a cease and desist to these sites, but I quickly realized that the sheer number of them is rather unmanagable. And I don't like writing emails.
Anyhow, I want to point out this issue once and for all, and also make clear that I am not at all affiliated with any of these download sites. So, support your local TX16Wx developer by downloading the software from here, click a few ads and send me a nice tune you make with the software.

A version 1.01 will be along soon, fixing some compatibiliy issues pointed out at KVR. Until then, happy sampling.

Cheers

0.9.11 - Bugfixes

New release, no new features, but fixes for the bugs reported this week.

v0.9.11:

• Fixed velocity/key range as modulation source
• Fixed bugs with inverse velocity sensitivity - did not load, nor sound correct
• Fixed reapeaks creation bug causing mipmaps becoming overlapped

The last item should receive a special note: The building of reapeaks files was broken in a rather lame way in 0.9.10, resulting in mixed up mip-maps in the file. I recommend you delete all generated reapeaks files to make sure they are recreated (hopefully) correctly. Sorry about that.

Version 0.9.10 Released - bugfixes

Some new bugfixes. Thanks to the bug reporters for their work.

Changes in 0.9.10:

• Fixed broken sample view drawing + made more accurate
• Fixed normalization rounding issue
• Fixed wav save data truncation
• Fixed crash when preview playing in sample editor while playing keyboard

Cheers!

Version 0.9.09 released

Last feature beta. After this I will collect any bug reports, and then there will be 1.0-time.

Changes in 0.9.09:

• Added Loop Direction modulation
• Added LFO trigger control (can now choose to retrigger or operate in continuous mode)
• Added limited switchable font & color for main view parameters
• Improved sound item modification tracking
• Fixed assigning individual outputs to groups
• Fixed AEG Attack/Time modulation, was barely noticable
• Fixed draw error in wave editor on XP

Hope you enjoy it.
