V2.0.3
Bug Fixes
- Fix crash setting limitations with fixtures only using PAN or TILT.
- Fix issue editing a fixture with a LIME channel.
- Fix issue with "FORCE" DMX IN not being applied correctly, and change name "FORCE" to "LOCK”.
- Fix BPM sync issues.
- Other minor bug fixes and improvements.
V2.0.2
Bug Fixes
- Fix crash splitting a fixture.
- Minor fixes.
V2.0.1
Features
- Add a new BPM screen to show the current BPM along with the synchronised state (INTERNAL, WTOOLS, MIDI CLOCK).
- Allow for the BPM to be adjusted manually from the new BPM screen (decimals are set whilst holding SHIFT).
- Jog the phase of the BPM using the second encoder on the BPM screen. In WTOOLS or MIDI CLOCK sync mode, this parameter sets a fixed offset in MS to compensate for system delays.
- Pause BPM synchronised effects with the music. When the music stops for one second, the BPM synchronised effects will pause. This option is set using the 3rd encoder on the new BPM screen.
- Option to set a color using CMY values on a new Color Picker -> CMY screen.
- Option to automatically calculate White, Amber and Lime values on the new Color Picker -> HUE screen along with WAL brightness control on encoder 4.
Bug Fixes
- Fix issue with group names not showing immediately after opening a V1 project.
- Fix issue with Preset and Live edit ordering when importing a V1 project.
- Fix error caused when communicating with WTOOLs "RangeError: Attempt to access memory outside buffer bounds".
- Several other minor bug fixes and optimisations.
V2.0.0
- Update UI design.
- Add a new Intelligent Preset screen to automatically create 80 presets on the chosen page, depending on the fixture types patched.
- Update the SETUP screen, now accessible via a toggle 'Burger Menu' button on the HOME screen.
- Add a second FX engine, allowing for 2 Color, Move and Beam effects to be played simultaneously on different groups.
- Increase the number of Presets from 100 to 200.
- Increase the number of Live Edits from 40 to 80.
- Increase the number of static Colors, Positions, and Gobos from 10 to 20.
- Increase the number of projects from 6 to 100, or 3.5MB of memory.
- Create a new optimised project format. Average project size now 10x smaller.
- Tapping an encoder on the Static Color, Position and Gobo screens now shows a new Expanded mode, allowing for the selected group, showing 20 palette items.
- Option to set a position and focus offset on a chosen fixture within a static position.
- Option to Cross the beams within a static position.
- Control a fixtures Lime channel.
- Option to set a color using values 0->255 on a new Color Picker -> RGB+ screen.
- Option to set a color using HUE, Saturation and RGB brightness on a new Color Picker -> HUE screen.
- Option to view and adjust the generated RGBWALU values after selecting a fixed color from the Color Picker -> GRID screen.
- Choose which parameters are recalled from a preset. COLOR recalls static colors and color effects, MOVE recalls static positions and move effects, and BEAM recalls BEAM FX. All other parameters are recalled regardless of this setting.
- New Wolfrider beam effect.
- New redesigned Move and Beam FX sequencers. Allowing for up to 16 steps.
- Move sequencer now uses static position data, allowing for one of 20 positions to be selected on each step.
- Fade and phase between steps with the new sequencer.
- LINK effects per GROUP and per FIXTURE.
- New MAPPINGS screen with one location to see all MIDI and DMX mappings (except for DMX channel mappings).
- New MIDI/DMX mappings for Flash buttons and Preset pages.
- Filter a specific MIDI Port on a mapping, allowing for multiple controllers to be connected via a USB MIDI hub.
- Group names are now set by directly tapping on the group name from the HOME screen.
- New settings screen design with sub-categories. Group exclusions are now set from the settings screen.
- New USB Memory stick screen, with options to import/export full backups, projects and fixtures.
- Increase max beams from 680 to 1500 (depending on DMX channel availability)
- Improve the performance of various parts of the Wolfmix including the effects processing and file open/save times.
