Hi All,

I've put up a new version of blue at:

http://blue.kunstmusik.com

This release contains a number of bug fixes and everyone is encouraged
to upgrade to it.  One notable feature added is the ability to have
always-on instrument code associated with the instrument.  This allows
adding things like chorus and delays that act instrument-wide and is
meant to be part of the instrument design as part of the blue
instrument.  (Documentation on this is currently unavailable, though I
am happy to share an instrument I am developing for those who are
curious on how to use this; email me off-list for more information).

Note: This release does require using Java 6, and future versions of
blue will require this as well.

I am currently working on migrating the existing documentation to a
wiki.  More information on that will be available when the first-pass
of migration is complete.

Thanks!
steven

blue

    [new] - Added Dave Seidel's "Herald of Water, Herald of Air" and "Gyre" to
            the examples/pieces/daveSeidel folder

    [new] - Added Brian Wong's "Pythongorean Wanderers" and "FMBot-00" to
            examples/pieces/brianWong

    [new] - Added ability for BlueSynthBuilder instruments to have Always-On
            instrument code

    [new] - OSX - made blue.conf default to have -J-d32 in the default_args to
            force using 32-bit mode Java on OSX; this enables working with
            Csound API when using the Csound 5.13 OSX Installer

    [updated] - modified shortcuts for opcode completion and BSB Object name
            completion to always use ctrl- shortcut, even on OSX (due to
            cmd-space being used as system shortcut for Spotlight)

    [updated] - Jython library for Python objects updated to version 2.5.2

    [fix] - Audition SoundObjects caused a null pointer due to MIDI class
            introduced in 2.1.0

    [fix] - shutdown blueLive on application exit to prevent Csound crash if
            instance is running

    [fix] - Updated pmask to work with newer jython/python by replacing whrandom
            with random.WeichmannHill()

    [fix] - Fixed issue with Realtime and Disk render settings not saving
            correctly

    [fix] - fixed bug where when API was enabled, rendering to disk would not
            work if "csound" was not in the system path; instead, always use
            command given in disk render settings panel

    [fix] - made Send always generate if enabled (bug was that it would get
            optimized out if level set to 0, even if automated)

    [fix] - MIDI Driver settings were not being loaded correctly
