What's new

v8.3
-rc3:
- You can now enter a custom file sample rate and a word clock rate. Word clock rate is used when an external word clock is different form the interface sample rate, this is often used for pull down when recording with a word clock of 48048 when the interface sample rate can only handle 48000. Since now Boom Recorder knows the actual sample rate you should now set the frame rate to the real-world frame rate. The file sample rate may also be modified and its timestamp should be adjusted.
- You can now also enter a custom on-set frame rate and file frame rate. The on-set frame rate is used to decode the LTC timecode signal. The file frame rate is used when displaying the timecode in the sound reports and in audio files.
- Graphics for the ring buffer and the transport buttons have been upgraded to vector graphics for drawing in good quality on retina displays.
- The tape counter and time code display has slate, take, roll and retry have a larger font for better readability. This is possible because the frame rate selector has moved to the time preferences.
- Manual is updated for this new version.
- You may now enter kHz into the sample rate field.
- Retry field is removed, on a filename collision the current date and time are added automatically to the filename and the recording is automatically retried.
- When changing metadata in the soundlog which would yield a new filename, then the file will always be renamed using the sample collision mechanism as for recording.
- Trial license is reset so that anyone can test Boom Recorder 8 for 30 days.
- Playback is enhanced with a timeline, when pressing play the timeline will apear where you can click to start the playback at that point in time. The ticks show the minutes.
- You can now select between no monitoring, always monitoring and monitoring during recording.
- New incident report system which can include large audio files which are truncated to maximum 1 MB. With this you can create an incident report when you do not have internet connection, the zip file can be send via email to [email protected].
- Directly printing a sound report from Boom Recorder is no longer possible because of sandboxing.
- Boom Recorder is now sandboxed which will improve security, and it is a requirement for the AppStore.
