Podium Free is based on the $50 commerical version of Podium. Contrary to most other apps out there, the free version of Podium is a full featured app with only a few minor drawbacks when compared to the commercial version of the software.
On the other hand it offers a complete audio and MIDI multitracking environment, including automation, automatic delay compensation, bouncing tracks, beat slicing, bundled plugins, full VST support and much more.

The project info panel on the start page shows the full file path for the project. The info panel below the contents panel shows the full file path of the sound object that is currently selected in the list.
If you maximize a project window, the standard Windows border is removed and the project window is shown full-screen. When maximized, the menu bar will include the auto-hide, minimize, restore and close buttons. When the auto-hide option is selected the menu bar will disappear when the mouse cursor is moved away from the menu bar. The menu bar can be shown again by moving the mouse cursor to the top of the screen and holding it there for half a second.
If the project is saved, the full file path is shown. If the project has not been saved yet, the New file line shows the folder and filename that will be used when you save the project for the first time. If you change the project name in the Project Properties dialog before saving, then the new folder and filename will be updated accordingly. If a folder already exists with the project name, then "_01" (or a higher number) is appended to the folder name. Once the project is saved, the project name is the same as the project filename. You can change the project name by renaming the project file.
External hardware devices can be fully integrated into the Podium engine. If you hook up both the MIDI and audio connections of a device to your PC interfaces then you can control and route the audio through the device on a single track in an arrangement. You use the same approach whether you are working with hardware devices or with software plugins. This makes it possible to route hardware and plugins interchangeably in effect chains. Podium also supports full MIDI and audio latency compensation with hardware devices as well as with plugins.
Note that the Podium installer only includes a few generic definition files. You can download device specific definition files from the Wiki section on zynewave.com. If you can't find a definition file for your device, you can import Cubase patch script files, or import one of the generic definition files that matches the type of your device. This will give you a set of default mappings, presets and parameters, which you then can modify according to the specs of your device.
Plugins are software program extensions that can be loaded into a plugin 'host' application where they are used to generate or process audio. There are many plugin formats available for audio processing. Podium supports the VST format including VSTi instruments. The device definitions forum on zynewave.com has links to plugin developers offering both free and commercial plugins.
When you want to use a hardware device or a plugin in your project, the recommended procedure is to use the project start page to import a device definition file from the Podium library. Definition files contain an organized collection of device mapping, preset and parameter objects, enabling you to fully control the device in your arrangements.
By default plugin parameters use 32-bit floating point values ranging from zero to one. This is the resolution Podium will use if both the min and max settings for the range are set to 0. Most plugin parameters will use a limited number of value steps, such as an on/off switch, a type selector, or a dial with a 0-127 value range. The floating point values stored in the plugin and sent to Podium will be quantized accordingly. The plugin will of course accept values from Podium in the full floating point range and just round to the nearest valid value. When the number of plugin parameter value steps is known, you can enter the same number of steps in the parameter value range settings. This will make Podium remap the floating point parameter values when displaying the value in the curve editor and the mixer sliders.
You can insert a horizontal timeline scrollbar region in the editor profile, as an alternative to the navigator region. A scrollbar region contains: a timeline scrollbar, a timeline zoom slider, and buttons for zooming to full range and zooming to the current selection. The scrollbar shows the current zoom range in relation to the full range. Clicking the right arrow button on the scrollbar allows you to step beyond the full range, so that you can add new content with the edit tools. The zoom slider will zoom in/out fixed on the edit cursor position. When releasing the zoom slider, the handle will return to its center position, allowing you to drag the handle again to zoom further in/out.
The layout of the hotspot areas are utilizing the full available note line height. The visual frame of the events may be smaller depending on the zoom setting. The velocity dependent height of events in drum map mode will also not affect the layout of the hotspot areas. The event will be highlighted when the mouse cursor is over the clickable area of the event, and the mouse cursor will change to a resize cursor when it is over the resize or velocity hotspots.
The Randomize note timing and Randomize note velocity options are applied to note events during playback, but not to notes played live on MIDI inputs. These options can be used to simulate 'human' inaccuracy, which is useful, for example, for creating an ensemble effect with multiple instruments playing the same sequence. The specified timing interval is the total time, so a note can be played from half the interval early to half the interval late. The timing randomization is furthermore influenced by note length, attack velocity and the previously randomized note start. Notes shorter than quarter notes will reduce the interval according to the note length. Attack velocities above 64 will reduce the interval with up to 50% at full velocity, simulating a more accurate timing when striking strong notes on an instrument. The note release time will be set to compensate slightly for the randomized start time. If, for example, the note start is set to be early, then the note length will be extended with half the randomized start offset. Using randomized timing requires that repeated notes have silence between them. Otherwise the start and stop of two notes may intersect, causing notes to be dropped.
The fader on a parameter mixer strip will use the full available height of the strip, with the exception of the level and send parameters. These parameters are automating dB gain values in the Podium mixer, and so the faders are aligned vertically to match the level markings of gain faders and meters on audio tracks.
If you want to automate levels you should assign the audio level parameter to a track and record curve sequences. The audio level parameter works as an offset to the current track gain setting. It functions as a damper of the track gain setting, so if you want to be able to automate a boost in the track level you should set the gain to the max desired. Since any automated level curves act as an offset to the track gain setting, you can at a later point readjust the balance of your track gains without having to redo the level automations. The automated level curves follow your track gain adjustments. Imagine you have an automated level curve fading from full scale to -6 dB below full scale. If your track gain is set to +6 dB the automated level curve will create a fade from +6 to 0 dB. If you adjust the track gain to -12 dB the level curve will create a fade from -12 to -18 dB.
Meters in the mixer region measure from -infinite to +6 dB. If the level on a track exceeds 0 dB the meter coloring will turn red and slowly fade back to green when level falls below 0 dB again. In general you should always try to make your audio tracks use the full range of the meter but always avoid any meter overloads. Preferably you should adjust the output level on the devices supplying the audio.
Both external devices and plugins often have a dedicated master volume. Once you have optimized the device output levels you can use the track gains to balance your mix. Even if you have a track that is supposed to be very quiet in the final mix you should always capture the source audio in full scale for optimum quality and only reduce the level as late as possible in the track tree mixing.
Podium supports the Mackie control surface standard. This includes full support for Logic Control, Mackie Control Universal (MCU) and MCU Pro. Podium also supports control surfaces from other manufacturers that can be configured to run in Mackie emulation mode. An example is the Behringer BCF-2000, which supports a subset of the Mackie control features.
When monitoring is activated the MCU will be in mixer mode. In this mode all faders and buttons will become active, and the LCD display will show track names and meters for each fader channel. The group of four fader bank navigation buttons can be used to shift the displayed channels by a full bank or by a single channel.
The full version of Podium comes with three FX plugins: zPEQ, zPitch and zReverb, only zPEQ and zPitch are included with the demo version. These plugins are all VST 2.4 compatible, this includes support for double-precision processing, which is used when the Podium mixer engine is running in 64 bit mode.
