Soundplane application v.1.0a2 is now available at the usual spot in the hardware forums.
I have fixed some bugs and added a few requested features to this preview release. There are now two new kinds of zones: a toggle switch, and a z (pressure only) zone. The Z zone offers some really exciting new possibilities and is a great match for the Soundplane's precise pressure control. I'm excited to make some music examples with this soon.
Changes:
two new kinds of zones: z (pressure only) and a toggle switch. 
  fixed an error where inactive touches were continuously sending their data 
 shortened some JSON zone names (just remove "controller_" to fix your presets) 
 updated Max/MSP examples
 moved matrix message into t3d OSC bundle with touches 
 restored some debug printing in the in-app console 
 added error info for JSON parsing 
 fixed possible bug with zone parsing 
 clarified the T3D format in docs 
 fixed an error reading calibration files 
 fix view issues for Retina display 
NOTE: Because I changed the t3d format, if you are using the Soundplane with Aalto you need to stick with a pre 1.0 Soundplane version until the next Aalto update.
missed this. looks great, can't wait to give it a go. thanks.
will the compatible aalto be before or after kaivo release? thanks!
Hiya,
I'm hoping to sneak the Aalto release out while Kaivo is in beta. But I hesitate to promise that, not having done it. Kaivo comes out in the first half of Feb, so either way it won't be much more than four weeks.
thanks randy, very excited about it.
