Question:
Is it possible to link mingw LIBs/DLLs with vc2005?
Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on November 4 2011, 2:40pm
Reply on November 5 2011, 8:49pm:
LIBs would probably not trivially link, no. DLL loading I'm sure you can do, though the C++ calling conventions probably differ, so if you use classes/interfaces across modules/compilers it would be a world of pain.

Question:
What hardware do you use to backup source code? In addition, what's the new build environment? (Ref: changelog v4.11pre3)
Asked by gio (62.103.65.x) on November 4 2011, 8:52am
Reply on November 5 2011, 8:50pm:
We use git, and the hardware doesn't really matter (it's all online storage, really, just in many locations).

REAPER media items lane painting (WM_PAINT) is really smooth... do you use double buffer? Hardware accelerated (DirectX)?

Reply on November 1 2011, 9:25pm:
It just renders to a DIB using LICE, and then BitBlt()s it to screen. Nothing fancy.

Question:
Is signal theory that complicated once you have a firm understanding of it?
Asked by John (24.234.128.x) on October 31 2011, 5:37pm
Reply on November 1 2011, 9:26pm:
Depends on what "signal theory" means, I suppose... I never quite get my head around the multidimensional math of recursive filters, but other things end up pretty simple to me.

Question:
How did you determine what to optimize to make Nitrane so fast? Did you just "borrow" others optimizations or were they yours?
Asked by Will (70.173.150.x) on October 31 2011, 4:38am
Reply on October 31 2011, 3:20pm:
I had spent a lot of time optimizing other decoders.. and Intel was nice enough to give us VTune early on, and we also got MMX and 3DNow! supporting CPUs, which were optimized for.. other than that, it was a lot of trial and error, and yes, learning from how other people optimized.

Reply on October 31 2011, 3:19pm:
I don't go that far, I'm not really that interesting to the big businesses, I don't think. I'd rather get frequent flier miles, too (even though it ends up being at the expense of the merchants, oh well).

Question:
Do you and Schwa ever look at other DAWs to get ideas? Are you afraid of the competition?

Reply on October 31 2011, 3:18pm:
Not often, and not really; we don't compete in the traditional sense.. we just make something nice that we'd like to use.

If you were seeking some form of anonymous would you simply recommend a VPN for browsing etc?
Asked by AnalSeducer (75.125.220.x) on October 29 2011, 5:36pm
Reply on October 29 2011, 5:42pm:
It depends on who you are hiding from. The website owners will always be able to track you, unfortunately, and if you're worried about your ISP or other man in the middle, then yeah, any VPN should work, I'd think.

Is Cocoa anything like win32, or is it an entirely different animal?
Asked by Will (24.234.128.x) on October 28 2011, 9:32pm
Reply on October 29 2011, 4:20pm:
It is similar in many respects, but different in others. You have NSWindow and NSView which are roughly equivalent to HWND, where NSWindow is top level HWND and NSView are child windows, and so on... but the way they are accessed is quite different (HWNDs are handles with API functions that use them, vs objective C objects, etc)... but there are plenty of common underlying ideas, sure.

Reply on October 29 2011, 4:21pm:
I think you can find strengths in other DAWs that may or may not be valid depending on what you do.. but I wouldn't say there's anything that most other DAWs do a lot better, but of course that's subjective to how you use things.
