3536a development release is out

**Eugene Gavrilov** · Oct 22, 2003, 08:33 PM

hello everybody

so, it's time for the next 'development' release

3536 alpha (beta?..) is out
this release might fix certain problems with games (well, I cannot promise

)

the changes:
* Improved kernel-level 3-D audio synchronization 
* Improved SMP / HyperThreading support (EXPERIMENTAL) 
* Fixed bug with kX Mixer notifications / RemoteIR support 
* Effect names and languages are now sorted alphabetically in the kX Tray menu 
* Added support for CL-compatible sampling rate interpolation 
* Added option to reset hardware voices (kxctrl -rv) 
* kX API: added card-specific input/output labeling

http://kx.maincore.nl/beta/kxdrv3536-sdk.exe

bug reports welcome

Dang where this thread came from Eugene

thanks bud I test out for you

HunterZ · Oct 23, 2003, 03:08 AM

Just installed them along with the KXP Skin and UFX effects. I cleared and reinitialized the DSP, then unloaded the Equalizer and Peak effects and when I attempted to directly connect the Front Left Out of Surrounder to the Analog Front Left (swapped) of Epilog, I get a crash in kxmixer.exe/kxfxlib.kxl. I tried switching to the Aqua skin and the same thing happened.

I just tried replacing the UFX surrounder with the kX one, and the crash still occurs - even if I don't unload the EQ and Peak effects first.

Daniel Drummond · Oct 23, 2003, 03:15 AM

Working fine here, even with LeMury's and Max's add-on plugins.

Robert McClelland · Oct 23, 2003, 04:51 AM

Not to me it's every bugie I start over again and when I added EQ P5 trying line it up and it crash the whole blue panel.

Max M. · Oct 23, 2003, 05:53 AM

Although Daniel said it works well for him, noone said that ufx34 will work with kx36... Wait for update maybe?

TravelRec. · Oct 23, 2003, 07:57 AM

Hi all there!

Tested new 3536 - so far so good:

Wavelab -> no problems
Cubase VST -> no problems
WinAmp3 -> no problems
ufx34 -> no problems (!) tested with EQ10, P-EQ5, Gain, PeakX etc.
LeMury´s "Src" & "k2lt" & "Asio" -> no problems

All tests with standard Aqua-skin and standard update.

Greetinx!

TravelRec.

P.S. Eugene: thankx for alphabetical fx-order -> much better now

!

HunterZ · Oct 23, 2003, 12:07 PM

Could someone testing 3536a please try changing the inputs to the default Epilog effect and see if it causes a crash? It seems that if I change any of the Epilog inputs, the mixer crashes on me. I'm using a SB0240 10k2 (Audigy 2 Platinum w/LiveDrive), WinXP SP1, DX9.0b, UFX34, kXP skin. I've pretty much ruled out UFX and the kXP skin as factors in the crash, but please feel free to do your own tests to verify that. Thanks.

BTW, it looks like Robert's problem may be similar to mine, but he didn't give enough details.

Maybe to early to tell, but;
Yep, same here. As soon as I try to re-route to Epilog, kmixer.exe crashes on kxfxlib.kxl.

I de-installed previous versions, did NOT register any other plugin (even not my own).
Did several "Reset Global Settings" etc.etc..

Well, I'll try some more....no problem.

YES YES~!!!
Same Problem.... Now i can only use "EPLG" .... when i customize(connect) the EPILOG(default) , kxmixer crashed.

I have De-install the 3534f (reset global settings) and UPdate 3536a immediately ... But Problem cannot be Solved...

Chocolla,

You did not understand my post! I said; " I will try some more,.....*that* is no problem".

As for the bug;
It happens only with 'new' Epilog, (the older versions don't crash).
When you click on one of Epilog's 'nodes' it tries to Highlight and then crashes.

Looks like a minor GUI bug, so relax people......

/LeMury

Chocolla · Oct 23, 2003, 04:26 PM

Oh. Thanks for reply. i am now using "eplg" instead, All right.

NightBreed · Oct 23, 2003, 09:04 PM

Just installed the drivers as well as LeMury's plugins and everything works great except of course the epilog. However it's not that important now that I've had a chance to use the 'k2lt' from LeMury. Other then that, everything is perfect on my machine running these drivers

Peace all

RIV@NVX · Oct 23, 2003, 09:39 PM

No problems so far...
And UFX works

**Eugene Gavrilov** · Oct 23, 2003, 11:18 PM

>> mixer crash

here's an updated version of kxfxlib.kxl == should solve the issue

Yep, works fine now.

HunterZ · Oct 24, 2003, 07:39 AM

Yup, looks good

No more crashes when rewiring Epilog.

mAlo · Oct 25, 2003, 04:52 PM

3536a with updated version of kxfxlib.kxl working very well on my ct4832! bye

mAlo · Oct 25, 2003, 07:43 PM

everything works, exept the MX6

Daniel Drummond · Oct 25, 2003, 07:56 PM

MX6 works with 3536a here. You must use the version of MX6 that comes bundled with the drivers and not install a new (or older) version of it.

Lex Nahumury · Oct 25, 2003, 07:58 PM

mAlo,
>>everything works, exept the MX6

The newest version of MX6 is already included (bundled) into 3536.
So don't register or use the one you may have downloaded from the forum.
(You may have to re-load MX6 from the kX fx menu in your setups)

I've unpacked the kx setup files putting the above kxfxlib.kxl in the directory, then ran kxsetup.exe.

mAlo · Oct 25, 2003, 09:23 PM

The real problem is that I haven't noticed that the mute is active by default

nicklad · Oct 25, 2003, 11:00 PM

There is still the bug of the right hand side of the peak meter bleeding across by approximately 1 pixel into the left when vertically orientated.

Sorry to be pedantic.

I know. This is also the case if you switch the original 'Peak' plugin into Vertical Mode.
What surprises me more, is that no one noticed (reported) that the Graphical readout
is 'off' in Vertical mode for both MX6 and Peak.

I'll fix this in MX6 when I have some time left.

what exactly do you mean?..

/E

Lex Nahumury · Oct 26, 2003, 12:48 PM

>>what exactly do you mean?..

Upload 2 instances of 'Peak',
apply a test signal (e.g. wave generator) to both of them,
switch one of them into vertical mode,
compare the graphical readout.
They are slightly 'off'.

http://members.lycos.nl/lemury/vu_diff.html

Numeric readout is correct in both cases.

/LeMury

nicklad · Oct 26, 2003, 01:48 PM

Just noticed:

When the DSP is Reinitilized, output volume is set to 100% but the sliders are not updated to reflect this.
