Behavior anomaly in Magic 2.2 ?
Posted: Wed Jun 26, 2019 5:11 pm
Hi,
This is my first post to the Magic Users Forum. I’m wondering if other Mac users have had this problem after the 2.2 upgrade.
I’ll preface my report by saying saying I’ve been a Magic user since ver. 1.65 and feel it Ione of the best applications for visualization of music through visual graphics of all types. Magic is, in a few words; simply wonderful !
That said, I noted what. I believe to be a behavior anomaly after installing Magic 2.2 from 2.1
My projects mainly consist of a series of scenes, each with a background.png, an ISF file or GLSL shader into a blend or mix module. Parameters like speed as well as some XYZ Parma’s are set to respond to volume, tone and best pitch.
After opening the projects I had been working with the past few weeks in Magic 2.2, here is the odd behavior I have either some how caused or is related to the recent upgrade.
When I go to full screen, auto advance; I can play the same arpeggiator notes from my synth (input is ‘mic’) things are fine, but the moment I change notes, Magic 2.2 invariably returns me to the first scene of the project. As far as I know, I never asked it to do this.
I had not had this issue with any prior version of Magic. (Which tends to make me believe it may be ‘operator error’), but when I dropped back to using the same projects on the same machine with the. same OS (Mojave) in Magic 2.0 things work as expected.
I am wondering if others have had this happen, or if I’m the ‘lucky duck’?
