R3NE 0.6.6 — Signal Flow

Live signal in, live signal out — and a batch of new performance nodes. R3NE now receives NDI and Syphon feeds directly into the graph, tames mixed-proportion photo decks with automatic reframing, and adds Strobe, Clone Chaser and Contact Sheet to the stylize arsenal.

Added

  • NDI Input node — receive video over the network from Resolume, OBS, or any NDI source. Auto-discovers sources on the network; on load it reconnects to the saved source (or defaults to the first available and switches to the saved one as soon as it comes online).
  • Syphon Input node — receive a GPU texture from any Syphon server on the system (Resolume, MadMapper, VDMX, another R3NE) with zero-copy sharing.
  • Auto Crop node — detects and removes letterbox/pillarbox bars automatically and reframes the content (fit or fill). Built for feeds where every image has a different proportion, with adjustable threshold, margin, uniform auto-padding border, and temporal smoothing with instant snap on composition changes.
  • Strobe node — color + alpha strobe with a full attack / duration / release envelope. Fires at an internal rate or in pulse mode from the rising edge of any float input — connect an LFO and its frequency drives the strobe. Color is overridable via a color input port.
  • Contact Sheet node — tiles the input into a cols×rows grid where each cell shows the frame delayed by a cumulative, parametrizable number of frames, revealed by a timed chase (configurable fill order, reverse, fade-out exit) with a synchronized flash. Auto size mode detects the content's true proportion and shapes every cell to it — with an animated transition between sizes, alpha-based detection option, and uniform per-cell auto-padding.
  • Clone Chaser node — N tiled clones revealed in a timed chase (center-out or reverse) with flash pulse, padding, cycle and aspect-preserving cells.
  • Picture: aspect ratio modes — Preserve aspect ratio now offers Fit (letterbox), Fill (auto crop), and Auto size (the width follows each image's proportion — no manual adjustment per photo).
  • Remote parameters everywhere — OSC (/<Node>/<param>) and the MCP set_params tool now reach node parameters that aren't input ports (Contact Sheet, Strobe, Advanced Color Correction, …), the same set MIDI and keyframes use; the Remote Parameters panel lists them all with copy-ready addresses.
  • Frame Buffer: frame count — the feedback delay is now adjustable (1–30 frames), and Frame Buffer / Frame Delay gained inspector controls.

Fixed

  • Ring-buffer nodes (Contact Sheet, Frame Buffer, Frame Delay) no longer flash magenta/pink while their history fills or when the buffer is resized — fresh buffers are cleared to transparent.
  • Contact Sheet auto size crops cleanly with no dark edge pixels around cells.
