PitchControl 1.1.0

[hlavamir]

First public release. A cross-platform (macOS, Windows) port of the vvvv patch with a new UI.

Added

• Engine: 40 FPS, 32-band audio analysis with an octave-weighted strobo trigger. It ports the vvvv
  patch's phase, strobo / idle and colour logic, the four mask presets (Gradient, Back & Forth,
  Rotating Line, Noise) with symmetry and crossfades, scenes and fog timers.
• Outputs: Enttec DMX USB Pro, Art-Net, PitchPlease v2 serial. Gamma is applied per channel, the
  same for every output; the PitchPlease v2 / v3 firmware decodes perceptual values itself.
• Monochrome UI in its own window (macOS / Windows) or the browser:
  • grey, amber or phosphor ink, glow, UI brightness, UI scale with "Fit window";
  • fully keyboard-driven;
  • custom full screen that covers the MacBook camera notch.
• Pages:
  • General, Dimmers (names, unused dimmers disabled);
  • Fixtures (fixture type editor with channel layout and channel map);
  • Rig (rig files and per-fixture values, multi-edit, overrides of type values);
  • Inputs (audio, MIDI monitor), Outputs, Fog, Settings;
  • Control Desk (manual override of any DMX channel, saved across restarts).
• Novation Launch Control XL Mk3 mapping with General / Dimmers page switching.
• Config as plain JSON files (fixture types, rigs, controllers, scenes, settings), edited in the
  app or by hand; unknown keys are logged, never fatal.
• Version shown in Settings → About and in the log.

Install: download the zip for your system and unpack it. The app is not signed:

• macOS (Apple Silicon): open PitchControl once; when macOS refuses, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → "Open Anyway".
• Windows: SmartScreen → More info → Run anyway.

On first start the app creates its configuration folder in Documents/PitchControl.
