# Known limitations and qualification boundaries
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Development version 0.1.0, Linux C99/C++17/FLTK, optional JACK. Physical-device
|
|
|
|
|
|
playback/capture, human transition listening, independent user acceptance and
|
|
|
|
|
|
long-duration device qualification are pending.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fixed 4/4 and constant tempo snapshots; no tempo map, loop transport, plugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
latency compensation, limiter, background streaming or multichannel mixer buses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Mono capture/import downmix; stereo track output. Graph ports are mono with
|
|
|
|
|
|
independent paired processing. Maximum 64 project graph nodes (256 standalone),
|
|
|
|
|
|
64 tracks, 1024 clips/automation points, 4096 scheduled notes, 256 live MIDI
|
|
|
|
|
|
events/block, 32 voices, 65536 frames/block. See API headers for exact bounds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- WAV samples preload with the memory/format limits in AUDIO_FILES.md. Callback
|
|
|
|
|
|
overflow reports/silences; there is no CPU preemption or expensive-plugin rescue.
|
2026-10-27 16:37:59 +01:00
|
|
|
|
- Live MIDI configurable per-channel volume/pan/sustain CC mapping; no controller learn, capture, SMF
|
2026-10-27 06:44:22 +01:00
|
|
|
|
import, pitch bend, custom-instrument chooser or instrument timbre controls.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Native ABI 1 graph nodes are session-only. ABI 2 state is parameter-only. LADSPA
|
|
|
|
|
|
supports the documented mono amp/inverter/sine set; no opaque state, native
|
|
|
|
|
|
editor, MIDI, true multichannel layout, latency compensation or crash isolation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Automated LADSPA controls use run(1) and can be expensive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- GUI loading/compilation is synchronous on the control thread. Timeline grid/
|
|
|
|
|
|
zoom/selection and graph positions are session UI state. Undo retains 32 edits
|
|
|
|
|
|
plus baseline; allocation failures are reported, not silently hidden. Media is
|
|
|
|
|
|
never removed by undo/delete. Broad screen-reader/accessibility testing is pending.
|
2026-10-27 16:37:59 +01:00
|
|
|
|
- Format v10 reads v1–v9 and uses relative local media references. External absolute
|
2026-10-27 06:44:22 +01:00
|
|
|
|
media/module paths need manual repair after relocation. Saving does not bundle
|
|
|
|
|
|
media; missing media stays referenced, missing plugins reject GUI installation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unknown data is rejected rather than stripped. Post-rename directory-sync errors
|
|
|
|
|
|
can report failure even though the complete new document was published.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- No autosave/session crash restoration, RF64, system service, automatic dependency
|
|
|
|
|
|
installation or public signed release. Source/binary archives are local artifacts;
|
|
|
|
|
|
binary packages require compatible system libraries. No third-party plugin or
|
|
|
|
|
|
dependency binary is bundled. Power-cut durability depends on the filesystem.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Waveform previews load synchronously on the control thread and cache at most
|
|
|
|
|
|
64 paths/1024 bins each. Reopen after external media replacement. Audio cuts
|
|
|
|
|
|
use tick resolution; GUI safety fades can create a short dip at split edges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Time stretching, independent pitch shifting and crossfades are deferred.
|
2026-10-27 16:00:29 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Graph folders, per-track graph routing and track templates remain deferred:
|
|
|
|
|
|
timeline and MIDI sources expose shared mixes. Layout is session-only; no
|
|
|
|
|
|
feedback cycles, plugin isolation or latency compensation are supplied.
|
2026-10-27 16:15:34 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Stereo one-level mix buses share the 64-track limit. Nested buses, independent
|
|
|
|
|
|
bus plugin inserts, per-track aux sends and sidechains remain deferred. Track
|
|
|
|
|
|
meters are pre-bus; bus meters are pre-graph; master is post-graph. Sample peaks
|
|
|
|
|
|
and sticky clipping do not provide loudness, true-peak analysis or limiting.
|
2026-10-27 16:24:21 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Plugin discovery is an explicit-file descriptor browser, not a directory scan.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic parameter dialogs own copied metadata; no native plugin editors or
|
|
|
|
|
|
custom MIDI instrument chooser. LADSPA units are unspecified. Replacement
|
|
|
|
|
|
requires the same mono audio layout and resets controls/automation. Missing
|
|
|
|
|
|
modules reject Open while retaining the current project; GUI module relink for
|
|
|
|
|
|
unopened documents is deferred. In-process plugin crashes/hangs are uncontained.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Common parameter targets cover track/bus gain/pan, LADSPA controls and metadata
|
|
|
|
|
|
for live sine volume/pan/sustain. Live mappings do not drive arranged lanes,
|
|
|
|
|
|
faders or plugins. No automation capture, touch/latch/write modes or loop
|
|
|
|
|
|
transport. Backward jumps are deterministic for lanes, not opaque plugin tails.
