DSP Robotics Support

We have just released FlowStone 3.0.4 Bluebird!

The release notes are on the Version History section of the Download page if you want the full details.

The headline feature is the DLL Component. This allows you to make your own components from dlls which are externally from the software. The dlls can be left external or embedded in the component and made into modules. By doing this you can effectively create your own primitives.

Most of the important connector types are supported including floats, strings, ints and their arrays. We also support mono connectors so you can now process data at sampling rate using your own code. This uses frames of data so the performance is extremely good.

The user guide has been updated to add a whole new chapter on this so hopefully everything is clear. We've also added some examples to the support area here:
DLL Component Examples

Hopefully that will be enough to get you started.

That DLL sound cool, i may renew my sub. I always wanted some possibilities to expand flowstone.
Did you have nothing to say about 64 bit plugins?

Heya,
still crashing Orion on close of plug when engine is running here.
Do you call the .dll in Ruby,asm or stream codeboxes?
Ty for the work done.

Ok, nice update.
Next update will implement x64 vst support I assume?
(and some 3.04 bug fixes)

CC

would it be possible to make a visual studio 10 (or 12) dll template?
converting the dll template to VS 10 version doesnt work, or do we need to use VS 2008?

btw converting the dll examples is working!

Looks like a great update...
Unfortunatly I'm too busy to even download it...
Looking forward to going through it next year....
Thanks guys...
Merry Xmas & happy new year to all.

Looking to do the update to 3.0.4 .. but was wondering ..

My current ToolBox I have has many 'custom' items added ... how to be sure that this will not be lost.

Thanks

All migrated here no problem.

OK-
I see now that the .dll is not called in a codebox--
is there any chance we could get 'mem' pins?
I need 2 float arrays to stereo mem.
If I had the mem pin,
I would get my hands dirty.

Someone else noticing heavy save time increase?
My current project (about 5MB - lots of synced copies and good use of busses) used to save within 10 to 15 sec with 3.03. 3.04 actually takes several minutes...
