Software: Issue with polyKB AU Synth plugin hosted in eigenD

Most Recent

written by: sam

Hi 0beron,

This is a general problem with text boxes in 1.1.* release branch - it is not plug-in specific.

I hope this is not causing too much of an issue, and will notify you when we have a fix.

I know a few of you have checked out this plugin from

http://www.xils-lab.com/ called polyKB

It's a wonderful sounding synth that plays well with the eigenharp.

I have a strange issue though that only happens when the plug is hosted within eigenD. Wondering whether anyone else has seen similar.

Basically, I am not able to edit patch names. Clicking in an edit box makes it go black and it seems to be read-only.

If however I host the plugin in Ableton Live, I am able to edit patch names.

Can anyone reproduce?

You might have been thinking of me and I was actually quite interested in this AU. However, after 3 attempts to buy it and zero interest in support from them to resolve whatever the issue was I simply gave up.

too bad, really

I have trouble with all the text boxes in Omnisphere and Trilian, but only in the newer GUIed EigenDs. Just out of interest, can you try polyKB with eigenD 1.0.* and see if there's still a problem?

Interesting...I'll try to repro this in Trillian too.

Thanks Sam. Hope you had a great vacation and are well rested.

I wake up this morning to find responses to this bug on both XILS forum and also Eigenlabs forum. Both companies have communicated on the issue already and XILS has linked to this thread and already talked to Sam. That is fantastic work and high praise to everyone.

Thanks so much.

@mikemilton
Not sure what happened with your support with XILS, but maybe try again or a different channel. Try the forum.

So is this an issue specific to polyKB, or a general text box bug in EigenD 1.1.* ?

It could be that my spectrasonics plugins are old - I deliberately didn't update them since the newer version have cocoa guis and older EigenDs wouldn't host them.
