just got it to open (goddamn i hate apple's OS) IF FREAKING WORKS ! FINALY a SPEK that works on my m1 !!!!!! ok the time has come i said i would do a donation if you did it (work my m1 mac) how should i do that ? do you have a paypal link ?
I tested the windows msi and zip on fully updated Windows 11 x64. Windows smartscreen gave a warning when the msi installer was launched, but did not block the install when I selected "Run anyway". Tested wav, mp3 320, and flac successfully. Screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/sRpECEI
I have just tried analysing a few 24 bit 96000 wav files and they show up as 16 bit on the graphic. Have I some alteration to the setup yet to do? or is this the standard?
Many Thanks Alexander, unfortunately I have the same issue (When you open the dmg file the spek icon doesn't appear in the window in order slide it in application)
Hi Alexander, I opened the dmg file on an old mac (OS Sierra) then I was able to copy the file generated on my new mac (OS Big Sur) and it seems working :-) Only one small issue the orange & red & purple waves is less easy to read than the previous colors (yellow, green etc...) Cheers
Hi! Can you send me a copy of that file to me, i'm facing the same issue with my big sur! I have my macbook in that OS till now, should i upgrade it for spek to work instead?
POSSIBLE BUG: Latest WIN beta version doesn't seem to work with .dts files. Same audio track in an .mkv container does read/analyze. Older version used to work okay. Sample here: https://we.tl/t-m6fm3GLCyd and MediaInfo data for the audio file here: https://justpaste.it/cnwf0
SUGGESTIONS: 1) After reading initial analysis for multi-channel audio, if you switch channels, it has to start from scratch, even if you go back to an earlier channel, which was already analyzed in full before. Analysis could be stored in memory/cache instead of re-analyzing each time.
2) The w, W shortcut key for "Change the DFT window size." does not rotate back to lowest value but can only increase when pressed. Could be made to go back to start, similar to behaviour of other shortcut keys such as p or f.
Thank you so so so very much for continuing development and support for this amazing little tool! It is absolutely insane that free, light-weight software like this can take almost any filetype you throw at it, while paid professional software like Audition cannot! Keep it up fine sir! <3
Thanks for quick response. Maybe could be a Preference switch for caching/memory/performance mode or something? For w/W cycling, my keyboard/language is US-English and I think I understand what's happening -- using W (capital) goes back to lower values and w goes up until max. But if you keep pressing either, it doesn't cycle around back to top/bottom, just stops at lowest/highest value. Whereas, p or f will keep coming back around, if you know what I mean? But all good, I get the usage of w/W now. Maybe works as intended. Cheers!
Hi, 0.8.5. version is only for Win 64bit, but I'm still using, for objective reasons, Win7 Ultimate 32bit. There are any chances a 32 bit releases? Thank you.
Great, can't wait for the new release and flatpak version.
Hi! I will absolutely be interestes to try the Beta Windows build:)
I added updated beta packages for Windows for the latest release. Try them out and let me know if anything is off: https://github.com/alexkay/spek/releases/tag/v0.8.5
I'm up for testing a macOS beta.

Thanks. I'm afraid it crashes on launch. I can send you the crash report.
I can reproduce it on a blank machine. I'll try to fix...
Thomas, I updated the package. Could you try again?
Now it no longer crashes.
As with previous versions I get this error message:
"Spek Warning
Cannot set locale to language "English (Denmark)"."
I've never seen that with other applications. And I don't remember seeing "English (Denmark)" anywhere else. Any idea what's causing it?
I don't but I'll investigate. Does it work otherwise or it exits after that error?
So far everything else seems fine.
Thomas, could you add this as a new issue on GitHub? Please include what's shown in About this Mac -> System Report -> Software -> Language & Region.
Sure. I'll add the issue.
Waiting since 2014 for a windows version with "Faster Fast Fourier Transform"

just tried it on win10 (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz) , everything work including saving png picture :)
Lovely, thank you Laurent!
I also added a beta macOS package, could you give it a try?

I'd love to beta test windows and mac builds.

Great, thank you for testing, Isaac! The warning is expected until the installer is signed, I'll try to do it in a future version.

Tested and working on Ventura on my intel macbook. :)
Hi from a newbie
I have just tried analysing a few 24 bit 96000 wav files and they show up as 16 bit on the graphic. Have I some alteration to the setup yet to do? or is this the standard?
I'm up for testing a macOS beta :-) (macOS Big Sur) Cheers!

Many Thanks Alexander, unfortunately I have the same issue (When you open the dmg file the spek icon doesn't appear in the window in order slide it in application)
Eva, I updated the package. Could you try again?
Hi Alexander, unfortunately still the same issue (no spek logo to drag and drop in app after opening the dmg file) Cheers!
Hi Alexander, I opened the dmg file on an old mac (OS Sierra) then I was able to copy the file generated on my new mac (OS Big Sur) and it seems working :-) Only one small issue the orange & red & purple waves is less easy to read than the previous colors (yellow, green etc...) Cheers
Thank you for checking, Eva! You can change the palette by pressing "p": http://help.spek.cc/man-0.8.5.html
Hi Alexander.
I'm not able the sort problem out. i have the same issue, and i don't have another mac around me. Please help. Thank you.
Hi! Can you send me a copy of that file to me, i'm facing the same issue with my big sur! I have my macbook in that OS till now, should i upgrade it for spek to work instead?
Tested on Win11 last build, with i5-13600k, all fine!
Hello! I just tried the v0.8.5 version on my Win11 laptop (i7-8750H) and it works fine!
64 bits?
Yes, the beta Windows binary is 64 bit.
would Logmarithmic scale be in soon?
No ETA but it's on the roadmap.

I can reproduce the .dts issue, thank you for sharing the sample, I'll investigate.
Caching analysis (or at least the decoded audio stream) is on the roadmap. It's the trade off between memory and performance.
Cycling with w/W works for me, what is your language and keyboard layout?
Thank you for the kind words!
