OneTrick SIMIAN 1.0.2 Released

We've got a tiny, but mighty, update for our SDS-V inspired drum synth, OneTrick SIMIAN bringing in multithreading optimizations.

Changelog

• Optimized: DSP is now multithreaded with each voice running in parallel.
• Changed: DSP now uses FastMath without hand-editing. This should help with custom builds.
• Updated Dplug to version 12.8.3

OneTrick SIMIAN 1.0.2 is a free update for existing users. The updated source code is also available on the project page.

FAQ

Gathering up the questions we've seen around the audio community.

Q: Is there a demo version of OneTrick SIMIAN?

A: No, OneTrick SIMIAN is not available in a "Demo" or "Lite" version. Yes there is! If you are looking for that iconic SDS-V sound, we hope our Sound Samples and User Guide show you what [OT] SIMIAN is capable of.

Q: What is the minimum macOS requirement for OneTrick SIMIAN?

A: OneTrick SIMIAN currently supports Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite and newer.

Q: How do you create reproducible builds (?) with OneTrick SIMIAN?

A: Currently OneTrick SIMIAN's tool chain does not create reproducible builds, but it is something we're looking into with the help of the community. Reproducible builds are possible with the changes made in our dub.json specifying exact dependency versions.

Q: Why is the OneTrick SIMIAN LV2 plugin currently not for sale?

A: In our testing many LV2 host implementations appear to have thread safety issues when changing automatable parameters from a GUI. This is particularly likely to trigger a crash when cycling through OneTrick SIMIAN's kit presets. Until the situation improves, we don't feel comfortable offering an LV2 build.
