The timbap visualizer is currently being re-implemented using a platform-independent runtime, namely Processing, which itself uses the Java Virtual Machine and the JOGL OpenGL Binding. This has a number of advantages: - We will shortly be able to provide a Mac OS X version of the whole timbap digital vinyl system
- This is the first step to real platform independence at a later time. Actually, the visualizer itself can be run on any system that provides a JVM.
- The installation process will become a lot easier as there will be no more external dependencies.
- The code has been refactored and is now more efficient, extensible and clearly structured.
Currently we are fixing some issues and preparing an installation package. We are planning to release a new platform-independent beta of the visualizer together with a Windows and a Mac OS X version of the VST plugin in May.
