A faster set of FFT routines have been implemented. These have resulted in corrections being generated several times faster than previously.
It is now possible to restore a session file when the associated wave file has been moved to a different location. Also read-only session files are now supported.
Temporary files are now stored in the system TEMP directory.
Minor enhancements to the user interface.
Bug Fixes:
In previous versions, very amplitude high frequency content caused the program to generate large numbers of spurious corrections. This is now fixed.
The 'Block - Remove Corrections' command now completely removes all corrections in the block. Previously, remnants of the deleted corrections were sometimes still present.
Other minor bug fixes.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.25 from Version 1.24
Compatibility has been extended to cover additional sound card drivers.
There is some improved error reporting.
There is improved correction editing when adjacent corrections interact with one another.
There is a new keyboard shortcut for the 'remove corrections from block operation - (ctrl-X).
The correction list now scrolls so that the selected correction is always visible.
Bug fixes:
Displayed channels no longer left/right reversed after re-scan or super-scan operation.
The 'correction signature' line no longer disappears off the top of the screen if the correction rate is very high.
Setting the click detect threshold to 'Off' now works correctly. (Before, very large clicks were still detected.)
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.24 from Version 1.23
Minor changes to ensure compatibility with the Windows 2000 operating system.
It is now possible to open wave or session files by dragging onto the Wave Corrector program icon; and support is also included for opening via the Windows Explorer right-click context menu.
Minor cosmetic changes.
ShareIt postal address updated in help file.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.23 from Version 1.22
The bug which caused a GPF in Windows NT has been fixed.
Track files now include a short fade-in and fade-out section at each end
Other minor bug fixes.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.22 from Version 1.21
The following changes have been made to the user interface:
Inter-track gaps are now shown in grey in the overview window.
When scanning is cancelled by the user, there is now an option to continue loading the file without scanning for clicks.
Selecting a block, you can now drag the mouse beyond the edge of the screen.
The Overview trace is now forced to minimum height of 5 pixels. This renders it always visible.
The screen no longer flickers during adjustment modes.
The Overview window scale indicator no longer moves with the cursor during play modes.
-------
The remaining changes affect the internal operation of wave corrector:
Automatic track detection is now more accurate and moe reliable.
The track boundary detector now automatically compensates for the presence of rumble.
Processing is now faster for short and medium length files.
Minimum Track length is now 5 seconds.
A 'Track 1' is now always generated even if no tracks boundaries are detected.
Recording mode is now given a higher thread priority to prevent buffer overruns.
The screen drawing routines are now compatible with all display resolutions.
The track boundary list is no longer corrupted after manual adjustments.
It is now always possible to select a track by clicking in the Tracks menu.
The program no longer crashes due to file size/buffer size conflicts.
Surrounding corrections are now regenerated correctly when a correction is deleted.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.21 from Version 1.2
'Record' Toolbar button has been added.
The 'Normalise' function now works correctly
Other minor bug fixes.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.2 from Version 1.12
A record function has been added together with the facility to normalise the amplitude of the recorded wave. This new feature removes the present requirement to use a separate wave editor application to acquire a wave file for processing by Wave Corrector.
A block select function has been added together with various subsidiary functions - eg: delete corrections in block, re-scan block, perform second pass on block, etc.
The main window now behaves more like a regular wave editor window; in particular the zoom range has been extended to allow unrestricted zoom out.
It is now possible to centre the display on any arbitrary position in the wave file. Previously, the display could only be centred on a correction or track boundary marker.
Screen updates have been speeded up and are now very fast.
The help file has been updated.
Bug Fix: Manual track boundary moves now work correctly in 'Disk-at-Once' mode.
Other minor bug fixes.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.12 from Version 1.11
Compatibility between Wave Corrector and other waveform editors and recorders has been improved.
Note: you only need to update to this version if you have problems exchanging files between Wave Corrector and other wave editors installed on your system.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.11 from Version 1.1
The following reported bugs are fixed:
The output file was occasionally corrupted when 'save all tracks to one file' was selected.
A GPF could occur when 'Next Critical' was selected from the corrections menu.
---------------------------------------
Changes Version 1.1 from Version 1.0
The following reported are fixed:
Scanning was truncated for some wave files longer than about 25 minutes.
Final Track was occasionally truncated, especially if track length was less than 30 seconds.
Temporary files were not always be deleted when a new wave file was loaded.
The following features are altered/added:
A much improved track management interface has been provided. 'Track View' is now clearly differentiated from 'Correction View' by means of a time versus amplitude histogram display including Track number labelling and track colours corresponding with the overview window.
The Overview Window display now also takes the form of a time versus amplitude histogram.
The position of the mouse pointer in the overview window is displayed as Minutes and Seconds in the Status Bar right-most pane. (Feature present but undocumented in version 1.0).
Options and Current directory are now saved to the registry and hence maintained across sessions.
A 'Restore Defaults' button has been added to the Options Dialog.
The correction algorithm at low sensitivity settings has been improved.
Track start and end points are now adjustable even when the input file consists of a single track. (In Version 1.0 at least two tracks needed to be present before a track boundary could be moved.)
When switching back and forth between Track Boundary View and Click Correction View, the scale is now memorised.
Track Boundary view is now scaled in seconds per division and multiples thereof.
The track list in the Tracks menu has been lengthened to a maximum of 20 items.
Keyboard shortcuts have been added for various commonly used functions.
After inserting a manual correction, the program now immediately launches adjust mode to fine tune the position of the insertion.
The 'insert correction' confirmation dialogue is now optional.
To act as an additional warning, the screen background colour now changes to blue when in insert or adjust mode.
Aborting adjustment of a newly inserted correction now deletes the correction.
Restrictions on use of unregistered version have been relaxed to allow trialing of track detection.
