Listened to The End And The Beginning remaster last night. How great it sounds! A few small changes needed. I've decided to aim for a CD release, despite the expense. The original art only had a 4-page booklet, so I need to make 4 extra pages. I thought that we need images of myself and Tor, so I've asked him. I have a few images of myself from 2009 which I could use. This one seems ideal:
And today I found a new crash bug in Prometheus so spent the morning tracking it down. It turned out to be caused by an engine called Anticlick Fade, which detects notes and fades the sound before and after each note. It crashed when NOT playing, when just pressing keys 'live', so no notes are actually there or should be detected. The problem was a now-invalid pointer to the 'active event'. I fixed it by initialising those pointers to zero in the Anticlick Fade code, and also keeping the active events pointers at zero when the sequencer isn't playing.
So, another morning spent bug-fixing. This time spent is the downside to using your own software. This one was unusual in being caused by the plugin, so created at a later time. These are an admission that over time bugs don't always vanish, there's always a chance of accidentally creating a new one.
After that, refinements to the album remaster. This has taken a long time, too long. I must charge on.
