LMMS Progress Report for July 2025

[blissful rover]

Looks like a post for July hasn't been created yet, so here it is

Could someone with mod power add the Dev Updates tag?

[keen cairn]

Yeah, preoccupied! 😭

[keen cairn]

When I figure out how, I will 🫡

TBH we've hit a bottleneck on reviews, I'd like to start reviewing but I'm pretty inexperienced with C++ so that's gonna take a bit

Also Reg being busy to wrap up the oscilloscope and whatnot is probably gonna be a bit of an issue

I'll try to cram as many PRs as possible

[hasty jay]

Oh yeah, what is still needed with the oscilloscope?

I know there is the minor issue where at some zoom levels there appears an odd visual effect where regularly spaced samples become... different/brighter/idk. I've been thinking about that issue, and I agree it really feels like i's caused by an off-by-one error, but I'm not sure where it would be from.

But we could totally merge it now and file an issue to fix it later if we want

[pearl pike]

I can train you

[keen cairn]

I'm down with that

It's such a good plugin that I just want it

@hasty jay give me more done PRs

We could get them in by this month

There was that autosave stuff

[keen cairn]

@hasty jay Approving the oscilloscope

Two approvals tonight, and I found it, @hasty jay! https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/7854 Can this be tested?

[hasty jay]

I think so!

[wind tree]

on mobile, press and hold on the post from the forum view and choose edit tags. i presume desktop is the same but with right click

[wind tree]

someone with mod should probably unpin the june thread and pin this one

[keen cairn]

This is off to a great start, Saker redirected me to learncpp.com, so I'll be brushing up on my C++ knowledge

[keen cairn]

@hasty jay Can "Make resizing..." be tested?

Also, here's the tested list as of now

#7568: Remove the FIFO thread
#7641: Add SlewDistortion effect and oversampling support
#7759: Pitch Bending Directly in the Piano Roll
#7847: Make playhead red when recording
#7858: Fix audio resampling functionality
#7926: Refactor Global Spacebar Play
#7937: Add Oscilloscope Effect
#8008: PianoRoll: fix getKey and remove dead code

[keen cairn]

Checked on #7759, everything's okay

[flat tinsel]

#7759, @regulus79: Pitch Bending Directly in the Piano Roll

[keen cairn]

All of these can be checked and merged AFAIC, I'll try taking reviewing on a bit as well

[hasty jay]

Oh yeah, @pale shore had some suggested changes on the track resizing pr, I haven't gotten around to testing them yet

[keen cairn]

Updated the tested list with another PR

[blissful rover]

@jaunty elbow Do you know if there were any administrative changes in July?

[jaunty elbow]

None!
