Factories

• New kind of Nodes:
• Multi Mix - for mixing multiple Waves using one Node
• Multi Concat - for concatening multiple Waves using one Node
• Wave Position Convertor - for converting a Wave Position
• Constant Wave - for using a reference to a Wave multiple times
• Constant value - for using a Value multiple times
• Has Wave - Test of a reference to a Wave has a Wave and if it is empty or filled
• Has Value - Test of a reference to a Value has a nonempty Value
• Empty Wave as None - remove a reference to a wave if the Wave is empty
• Integer Switch Wave - Choose a Wave, using a Integer Value
• Integer Switch Value - Choose a Value, using a Integer Value
• Pick First Wave - Pick the first reference to a real Wave in a ordered list of Wave Inputs
• Pick First Value - Pick the first nonempty Value in a ordered list of Value Inputs


• Replacement of Nodes for creating Waves:
• Removed Nodes: Make New Wave, Make Silence, Make Line, Make Block, Make Triangle, Make Sinus, Make Noise
• Added Nodes: Create Silence, Create Line, Create Block, Create Triangle, Create Sinus, Create Noise
These Nodes need not an existing Wave, but you must specify Wave Properties.
• Added Nodes: Add Silence, Add Line, Add Block, Add Triangle, Add Sinus, Add Noise
These Nodes needs an existing Wave, like the old "Make"-Nodes.

When opening Factories of version 9.1 or earlier, the old "Make"-Nodes are converted into new Nodes.


• Three Memory Modes for Wave Node Outputs:
• Memory None: No memory is reserved for the content of this None, it is always possible that there still exists a reference to a Wave
• Memory Temporary: The Wave is not deleted from the Node Output, until it is overwritten by a new Wave
• Memory Permanent: When the Node Output has already a Wave, it will not be written, possible the Factory needs not to be run
• Two Memory Modes for Wave Node Outputs:
• Memory Temporary: The Value can be overwritten by a new Value
• Memory Permanent: When the Node Output has already a Value, it will not be written, possible the Factory needs not to be run
For example when there are problems while running a factory, you can look inside the Factory and read all Inputs and Outputs, it is also possible to speed up processing by using Inputs and Outputs with Memory Mode Permanent.
