if you download, I would be grateful if you could pop in and say Hi, on polyexpression.com, this is where I also support the community version of EigenD.

Its useful for me to know, how many players are using, and on what platform they are using it e.g. windows/mac/linux/pi)

changes:

• updated to latest Juce framework (4.3.0)
• improved 64 bit support macOS
• fix macOS 32 bit to python from /usr/local/pi
• improved linux build
• fix eigenD hanging on exit
• workbench: select agent menu, pressing letter selects first agent

resources

resources are not included, download from Eigenlabs website
for macOS you will need to disable SIP to install (google it ;))

• disable SIP
  -install resources...
  if you didnt do (a) this step will fail, so if it works things are good :)
• launch finder window, menu -> go -> go to folder, enter /usr/pi
• launch another finder window, menu -> go -> go to folder, enter /usr/local/pi
• now have two finder windows, so drag whats in /usr/pi to /user/local/pi ... you will be asked for your admin password, since these directories are 'protected'
  as far as I remember, there shouldn't be any clashes in files...
• launch EigenD with factory setup, and the piano sound should now work, as resources contain the sample
• re-enable SIP

community-2.1.6

community-2.1.5

Replaced by https://github.com/TheTechnobear/EigenD/releases/tag/community-2.1.7

community-2.1.2

newer version of Juce, updated for el-captain (mac os 10.11)/ sierra (10.12)

for mac OS X only, you will need to install the new runtime (1.0.1) this is not required for any other platform.
(this is due to changes in Mac OS X 10.11+)

known issues:

• limited testing has been done on this release, its main goal is for testing mac OS X 10.11+
• EigenBrowser/Command have refresh UI issues on Mac OS X (true of official releases as well)
• Windows depends on runtime-1.0.1, which doesnt exist yet, copy 1.0.0

Windows
This release depends on a new version (1.0.1) of the runtime package (aka EigenD support package) which has not been released for windows yet. For the time being, download the runtime-1.0.0 from the Eigenlabs website, install it and then rename it to runtime-1.0.1 (its found in Program Files (x86)\Eigenlabs)

El Capitan (10.11) / Sierra (10.12)

• has various graphical issues with VSTs, try both VSTs and AU.
• Resources may need to be moved manually... (to /usr/local/pi)
• when you upgrade to El Capitan/Sierra your existing /usr/pi install will have been moved to :
  /Library/SystemMigration/History/xxxx/QuarantineRoot/usr
• you must quit EigenD before unplugging your Eigenharp, if you don't Mac OS may crash!

this thread covers the issues we know about El Capitan:
http://www.eigenlabs.com/forum/threads/id/1453/

Linux: run_eigend.sh should be run with sudo
e.g.
sudo ./run_eigend.sh

root permissions are needed for many linux OS for real time threads, and also usb access (the later can be removed with using usb rules... in a later release I will remove this requirement
