Dirac Live Active Room Treatment

Added

• dB labels in volume calibration
  All sliders and VU meter level bars have numeric labels showing min, max and current dB values.

• High-contrast themes
  The user can switch between a bright and a dark high-contrast theme in addition to the existing low-contrast theme. The application defaults to one of the high-contrast themes.

• Manual IP
  The option to manually enter the IP address of a device to connect to has been added.

• Support for separate and independent recording devices
  Dirac Live now supports using recording devices on the same network in addition to microphones connected to the active device or local computer.

• Project name in application title bar
  The name of the most recently loaded or saved project is provided in the top area (“title bar”) of the application.

• Auto-save project
  The program is automatically saved to an autosave file (one file per device) after each measurement and every time a new filter has been calculated.

• Warning about unsaved changes
  The user is warned if there are changes to measurements or filter design when exiting the program or loading a project, and will have to confirm the action.

• Load project from command-line
  A project filename can be provided as a command-line argument to be loaded when the corresponding device is selected.

Changed

• Better fit for localized texts
  The interface will adjust to accommodate the length of localized texts for improved readability and presentation.

• Loud volume timeout indicator
  The safety lock for the loud playback master volume slider in the volume calibration step now has a visual indicator showing time remaining until the slider is re-locked.

• Visibly interactive channel groups
  The interactivity of the channel groups in filter design has been made more discoverable and visible.

• Removed the asterisk from recording devices
  The ✱ (asterisk) icon that indicated a default device has been removed from the recording device cards in the select recording device step.

• Selected success toasts are persistent
  Notifications for successfully measured a position or exporting a filter will not time out and must be manually dismissed.
