Version 1.0.23 of the SquinkyLabs modules is now in the library. It’s just a bug fix version, but the two bugs fixed were really bad for people who ran into them.
There was an issue in SFZ player where it could not parse SFZ files correctly if the machine was set to a locale that uses comas as decimal points (which is many more than you would think if you only know about the US). I don’t think this bug would occur any time the local was set that way – I suspect only when SFZ Player was run on a Linux with some oddity in it. But, in any case it’s fixed.
Great! I had a problem with SFZ player crashing Rack when trying to load the Salamander Piano soundfont (on linux), I never got around to reporting it but it works now.
Yeah may not have been this one in particular, I haven’t really touched Rack for a few months. Thanks all the same, I had assumed was because I had converted it to flac or that it was too big a soundfont, or something like that so it’s good to know I can try any now without worrying about getting a crash.
Flac has always been fully supported. If you get any crashes at all, please let me know. It is for sure not supposed to crash ever. Although I did fix a crash not too long ago that occurred when my parser was putting spaces into some file names and then I would crash when I didn’t find the files.
I’d like to publicly thank @Squinky for the quick response and sustained effort in tracking down and fixing that tricky SFZ Player bug. Now I can have fun doing weird things to a piano in VCV Rack.
