Updated Cardinal web thingy again, now with 899 modules. 😂

I am actually amazed this works as well as it does.
I skipped ChowDSP and ValleyAudio, everything else just built as-is without changes.

Made some changes to the page loading layout too, so it resizes with the window now.

There is still a "crash" when adding modules, but you can click away (outside the module browser dialog) to close it, and the module will be on the Rack.

oh hey, it is Cardinal in the browser!

Still very fragile, very early steps.
But the whole thing is there, and amazing that it renders just like the desktop version. 😱

This is VERY promising!

Oh and the Kars and Nekobi options now play something too :D

No one asked for this, but have you thought of running Carla and plugins on the browser?

I have been studying and testing web assembly recently, using emscripten to compile regular C++ code.
There are quite some restrictions and quirkiness (everything runs on the main thread, even audio), but with some effort it is possible to make it work.

First real test, Ildaeil-Synth.

1. select "Audio File" from the list
2. click "Load plugin"
3. enjoy some music

Cardinal 22.06 release is here!
https://kx.studio/News/?action=view&url=cardinal-2206-released

Has a few new modules and quite some bugfixes.
Enjoy!

Quite some fixes done on Cardinal side today, but no release. One thing I want to fix got sidetracked while we found a few other things to fix on stream.
But there is always tomorrow.

Hmm peertube no longer announces streams, but starting one for Cardinal 22.06 release preparations.

Still testing the waters, dont expect quality content 😊

Preparing things for yet another Cardinal release.
It is kinda being 1 per month, so why stop now.

Updated module docs, you can see the new ones in https://github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal/blob/main/docs/CARDINAL-MODULES.md

No release today, will try tomorrow.
If you spot any unreported issues on the nightly builds, please speak now!

I am going to start doing some live stream tests in the next few days, trying to setup everything needed for a smooth experience.
Feel free to ignore them, best to have no pressure to make them look good at first.

Will let you know once I have everything sorted out

Something like...

1. Waking up at 3am
2. Have breakfast while catching up on things
3. Do some work for a few hours
4. Break at 9am for lunch and groceries
5. Any other pending work
6. Stop when temps get too high again, for sleep till next day

Doesn't seem like the worst of plans.
Let's see if I can actually do it though...

Hot weather has come, really cannot deal with it.
So I am wondering about:

1. Getting up early while it is still dark, doing some work, and then resting while temps rise

2. Waking up late while still hot, work during the night and rest shortly after sun rises

In the past I did option 2 regularly, but now I need to participate on meetings so option 1 will have to do.
