@rayThere are paid upgrades from Isadora 1 to Isadora 3 and Isadora 2 to Isadora 3 that are less expensive than buying a brand-new Isadora 3 license:https://support.troikatronix.com/support/solutions/articles/13000056359-pricing-for-isadora-3

@mark said: it may still be possible to work with Astra  Thanks for the advice - I look forward to your update!

@mark This is driver dependant, it depends on what the manufactures have written support for. With VB audio cable via the manage audio devices settings I see a quadrophonic output.

@dbengaliThanks for the bug report. This bug was in 2.6.1 as well... I guess no one encountered it before. I've fixed it in v3 and the fix will appear with the next point release (3.0.2) which is coming shortly.Best Wishes,Mark

@fred said: I first saw it doing a fast walk through with students. I did not make any actual mapping, was just taking a tour and hence the 1*1 grid   Well, glad you did! Otherwise this bug was found much later ;)

Thanks guys, @Woland  I'd be happy to help test this feature. I'm not sure which touch screens I'll be using yet, I'm still in the planning phase of this project and considering multiple solutions. I'm trying to avoid the expense and hassle of setting up 6 different systems and networking with OSC.

@jtsteph No that is because Isadora JavaScript actor has some gotcha's, the final input needs to be triggered for the code to run. Since I use Pressed / Released triggers this had to built in for the sole purpose of forcing Isadora to run the code and give me the correct values. If you remove that you won't get proper triggers :)

@dillthekraut I wanted to have the movie loop at the position it is playing at a particular moment. the patch repeat2.izz I posted above archieves that, I guess now there are two solutions for the same problem.

@juriaan said: I agree complety with the OP, still I think that it is worth the discussion regarding the weird "++" naming, it becomes quite difficult to explain it to fellow students..  I agree with all three of your points, but also: Curvature ++ Macro.i3ua
