RNBO 1.3.0 Released

We are happy to announce the release of RNBO 1.3.0, available now for download via the Max Package Manager.

*NOTE* currently, Windows users will need to install Bonjour Print Services. We are working on a fix for this.

With this update, we are introducing a new version of the RNBO Raspberry Pi Runner. The Runner provides plug and play access to a Raspberry Pi from the Max application, using using OSCQuery for communication with the running code.

This update features a new web-based interface with routing capabilities, expanded hardware support, along with many other improvements and bug fixes. Improvements include:

• Raspberry Pi OS upgrade to raspbian: bookworm

  • rpi 5, 4, 3, zero2w supported

• New web based interface with routing capabilities

  • Create multiple patcher instances and connect them together arbitrarily, save and restore these graphs as "sets"

  • Edit audio and various other configuration details

  • Improved parameter editing and visualization

  • Improved MIDI input

• Raw MIDI driver

  • Allows for SYSEX output to hardware

• Presets migration

  • Optionally keep presets created on the device while exporting a new version of a patcher

• Patcher and set migration

  • Future upgrades will retain patchers and sets

• OSC capabilities

  • Inport and outport now optionally allow for arbitrary addresses anywhere within the OSC namespace

  • Listeners are retained across reboots

We've also rolled in direct support for the Eventide H9000 add-on package, and have included a number of other improvements and bug fixes. Check out the release notes here or below.

Cheers!
