SigmaStudio 3.1.4
- USB Communication channel for ADAU170x fixed to allow proper communication for certain parameters.
- The Link/Compile/Download sequence was modified to ensure the proper register sequence and sample rate is set for GEN3 ICs.
3.1.3
Enhancements
- The entire library of filters, now support a lower limit center or cutoff frequency of 1Hz on all filter controls. Previous versions of SigmaStudio limited the lowest frequency value that could be entered, but now all filter controls allow values down to 1Hz.
Bug Fixes
- The SW Clickless Mute algorithm was not working properly for the ADAU170x IC. A new method for downloading the proper mute coefficient was implemented to fix this issue.
3.1.2
Enhancements
- Added the following new algorithms/modules:
- Advanced Soft Clip
- Square Root (Standard)
- Square Root (Ultra Precision)
Bug Fixes
- The beginning code for GEN3 cores was updated to reflect a new order of initialization for use with the DAGS. Any new ICs used in projects will have the updated code. Existing schematic projects will have the old default beginning code saved. In order to update to the newest beginning code, drop a new IC in the hardware window of the project schematic and copy the existing algorithms to the new IC.
- The Parameter Index Lookup Filters have renamed coefficients to avoid a potential bug. This only exhibited itself with more than 10 instantiations of the algorithms each with 10 or more curves. The algorithms affected were:
- General (2nd Order/Lookup)
- General 2nd Order Index Selectable – Double and Single Precision
- General 2nd Order w var Param/Lookup/Slew
- The Parameter Index Lookup Filter Cell had legacy code that downloaded incorrect filter values to the DSP. This mechanism was updated to ensure proper filter coefficient download.
- Multiple Link/Compile/Download compilations for GEN3 projects using algorithm code with DAG updates cause intermittent behaviour with coefficient download. A new register sequence is implemented for the Link/Compile/Download operation to ensure proper coefficient operation.
