Re: Good way to do wireless connections?

I've just tried LD's auxsend & auxreturn and there didn't seem to be any issue with the connection and sent audio though the 'bridge' fine. If you don't have them already: Here's auxsend - https://buzz.robotplanet.dk/machineinfo.php?id=7848 Here's auxreturn - https://forums.jeskola.net/viewtopic...

Re: Modern Sequence Editor

Think something might've happened with the keyboard focus in this new build. If you cycle through the different views (F2 -> F3 -> F4) when you land on Sequence View (F4) you can't then go back to Machine View or Pattern View using the F-keys unless you click away (using the mouse) from Sequence Vie...

Re: DSP56300 synth VST

Aye been watching the progress of this for a while now - Be interesting to see what other devices they manage to emulate. The problem of the menus vanishing is another examples of JUCE (and possibly other) created VST/i not playing nice with Polac ( https://forums.jeskola.net/viewtopic.php?t=2658 ) ...

Re: Where can I find the newest Index for machines?

~Great stuff - Thank you :)
Ps. What's the best way to tweak indexes - old fashioned Notepad/text editor, or is there a (recent-ish) Buzz Machine index utility that works better than manually editing ?

Re: PatternXP RE

A few of the files in that updated source (PatternXP.vcxproj, stdafx.h, MachinePattern.h ) look like they were pointing to files two folders up from the main source code folder (..\..\Buzz) rather than just the one (..\Buzz) This should build for you without any project tweaking (hopefully!) or enti...

Ah OK, you're nearly there - As I say you need to download the original Pattern XP source from here: https://github.com/chahur/Buzz-PatternXP (click the green 'code' button and then 'download .zip') Once unzipped move the Buzz-PatternXP-master folder (it might well be within yet another 'Buzz-Patter...

History of trackers (feat Buzz)

You may have already seen this (100k views in just one day is quite impressive for such a niche topic) but a superb 40 minute history of trackers, from C64 through to Amiga and PC. Buzz makes a fleeting appearance towards the end - the machine view layout looked like it came from quite a solid user,...

Re: Where can I find the newest Index for machines?

*super necro bump* Curious to know if there are any index's that are still getting updated. Comparing my current index.txt from the ones available I think I'm using the 'wizenwet' index from 2006 as it seemed the most logical in its categorisation for my workflow. So given the date you can imagine I...

You'll need to load up a 'blank' version of Polac VSTi 1.1 in machine view. Then Right click -> Preferences -> Global 2 and in the bottom right click Clean Up and on the top right click Full Rescan. If Buzz breaks again on load you'll know that it's one of your VSTs that causing it (as mentioned ear...

Re: fsex300.ttf

fsex300.ttf is a variant of the fixedsys font (filename is short for 'Fixedsys Excelsior v3.00') Looking at the install time on my machine it syncs up when I first installed Buzz x86 on here. I think it's the default font used in Pattern View (and maybe sequence view ?) so if it's not available then...
