Hi All,

There is the actual beta version a Spark :
Mac : https://owncloud.arturia.net/index.php/s/0o6USZFvuC35Fq1
Pc : https://owncloud.arturia.net/index.php/s/4fLuPsF47Go6k4K

I would like you (if you want) to test this version of Spark in Logic pro.

 - Is it working better ?

- What is the difference for you with the previous version ?

- Is it still unusable, or it can be used like that ?

If it doesn't works, it means that we'll have to deeply change the spark code and it will take lot of times.

Thanks for testing and helping us.

JB

I've tried out this beta version on the latest version of os x and logic. The bug described in this thread seems fixed but new problems with responsiveness have shown up. Without the spark le controller, during playback, changing parameters is not smooth and jerks around. With the controller, it's worse... I can't change parameter values at all during playback - only once I hit stop and play again does the change become active... The gui knobs aren't even responding as I move the knob on the controller. This beta version seems to unfortunately not be much of a step forward.

can you recheck there no lag as i still get it here? try changing pattens on the controller and have the sequencer open . I'm getting it but not as bad as before.

thanks

Correct, there is no hiccup or lag anymore. There is some minor gui delay when adjusting parameters, but doesn't really affect usability as I sounds to me as if the audio is being modified in priority.

My response above was inaccurate now that i've tested more thoroughly.  It seems that I can produce a bug when the spark le controller is connected: The three gui instrument parameter knobs in the Main view are always change to Instrument 1 after:
1) closing the gui
2) press play in logic, looping (gui still closed)
3) changing a parameter using the P1,P2,P3 knobs while looping (gui still closed)
4) stop looping
5) opening the gui

The gui will correct itself after selecting a new instrument (or the same one). I assume this action triggers a redraw of the gui.

So, this isn't affecting playback so much as the gui and the controller staying in sync whilst opening and closing the gui.  It initially confused me.

I've also tested some other things that used to be broken and have found they may be fixed.  Can we have a list of what items should be fixed?  I would love to continue testing. 

we're getting closer....

Encountered another problem whilst working with the beta in Logic. I closed the gui, left the controller connected, set it aside and opened up some synth plugins on other tracks and it seems that eventually the spark le controller locks up and the plugin cannot connect to it.  I then tried to unplug and plug in the controller in hopes that it would be able to reconnect, but logic froze completely and I had to force quit.  This general sequence of events has now happened multiple times.

Ok cool all is working fine regarding the issue with the "Open GUI". It seems to work better now. There are still some new issue like the impossibility to recall the instrument from the disk without the GUI open. It worked fine in the 1.7.2 version but now it seems to disappear!

By the way the main issue with the GUI Seems to be solved. Super!

Ok a list of bug noticed after few tests:

1) Function that able to recall (kit/instr/disk section with clicking the big knob without the GUI opened completely dispappeared. Nothing happen if you press the big knob without the GUI open and the software in use.

2) The knob Loop and Divide don't move separately but if you move Divide also the Loop virtual knob moves.

3) The main GUI problem appears only if the track is armed (R). But all of us know that you have to switch off the REC button to use the controller in the best way.

I found a new bug in the beta. For me, this happens in standalone and logic pro x plugin. I'm able to repeat this 100% of the time.

* changing master volume causes the gui to refresh and respond slowly.
1) open Spark
2) change master volume
3) press play
Pads, meters, and steps are all affected.

Also, this bug relating to sample start-end points still exists on Mac standalone and Logic AU:
