HeavyM 2.10

A great new start!

Поздоровайтесь с совершенно новым секвенсором, включающим точный модуль Timeline и визуализатор формы звуковой волны для анализа звука! Этот редизайн одного из основных модулей HeavyM значительно улучшает рабочий процесс, независимо от того, работаете ли вы над заранее запрограммированным шоу или живым выступлением.

2.10 is much more than a simple update

Interface_HeavyM 2.10

В этой новой версии мы вносим глубокие изменения в несколько аспектов программного обеспечения.

Новый модуль "Последовательности

The sequencer is completely transformed and becomes more visual and practical to use:

Модуль "Последовательности" - HeavyM 2.10
  • Create the different parts of your projects with ease
  • Use options to customize the look of your sequences
  • Organize your sequences in several tabs
  • Two playback modes available: linear and random!
  • Control any action with MIDI, OSC, DMX

Новый модуль Timeline

Plan your shows with extraordinary precision thanks to the addition of this new Timeline mode!

Модуль временной шкалы
  • Import any audio track
  • Drag and drop the sequences in the timeline (not in the beta version)
  • Build in a very precise way the highlights of your project
  • Create logical sequences of actions (transitions, pause, loop, ...)

New Audio module

We have completely redesigned the audio analysis module to get ultra-realistic and fluid sound synchronization.

Analyse Audio - HeavyM 2.10
  • New design and completely rewritten
  • More accurate audio analysis
  • Smoother analysis animations
  • Customizable frequency bands

Новые возможности

  • Complete overhaul of the Sequencer:
  • Reworked the Sequences module in a matrix view, with the possibility to organize sequences in tabs
  • Added an Autopilot feature to automatically play through the list of sequences in a tab, according to a fixed duration or the length of Sources
  • Added a Timeline module, giving you the possibility to program a whole show with the help of cues that you can precisely place on a time track (down to the millisecond), or even adjust visually based on the waveform of an audio file
  • Added the possibility to change the color of a sequence in the matrix (7 different colors)
  • Added the possibility to change the size of sequences in the matrix (3 different sizes)
  •  
  • Added the possibility to set the duration of a media in beats (excluding Videos)
  • Added a resolution settings for Text media
  • New features added since the first beta release:
  • Added “scroll follows playback” options on the timeline and sequences module so that the view can adapt to the progression of your project
  • Added a live cursor timestamp label on the time track so that you never get lost!
  • Added new cue addition and edition interactions:
  • Added the possibility to drag and drop a sequence directly on the timeline to quickly create a “Play” cue of the same color at a precise position
  • Added the possibility to double-click on the cue track to quickly create a “None” cue at a precise position
  • Added the possibility to create a new clue from a right-click menu on the cue track
  • Added the possibility to copy/cut/paste cues from a right-click menu on the cue track or by using common shortcuts
  • Added the possibility to use the arrow keys to move the selected cue by 1ms when it has the focus
  • At creation, the cue color and name adapt to the associated action
  • Added the possibility to enable hardware acceleration for video decoding. Using it improves performances but might create occasional glitches на some videos или hardware. You can choose a default for new videos in Edit -> Preferences -> Rendering -> Video decoding (Patch 2.10.2)

Улучшения

Various improvements due to the overhaul of the sequencer:

  • The audio analysis settings now give a more precise audio spectrum visualizer and the possibility to overlap the Bass/Mid/High frequency bands
  • Added a smoothing factor to the release stage of the envelope calculated for each frequency band
  • Added the possibility to resize the height of the sequencer module
  • Made it easier to play a blackout sequence, either as a preset action or live
  • And many more!

Известные проблемы

  • На MacOS Catalina может произойти сбой, если экран подключается/отключается, когда окно вывода уже открыто - Пожалуйста, обновитесь до версии Big Sur, если это возможно!
  • HeavyM 2 не совместим с некоторыми интегрированными видеокартами - Пожалуйста, проверьте минимальные требования на сайт.
