Winamp - Chronotron problems

I recently started having problems with the CSDS player and the winamp system. I had upgraded to the new chronotron plug in, and the player started acting up. i.e. the tempo change wouldn't work using CSDS but the winamp player would change the tempo. CSDS would not recognize the change after I saved the file. Loops would not save. It's like the CSDS and winamp weren't communicating.

I recently found and fixed a couple of bugs pertaining to how CSDS saves tempo changes. This may (or may not) fix your problem. Please get the latest version of CSDS and see if the problem goes away.

If you wish to confirm whether CSDS has located the plug-in, bring up the CSDS music player, goto the 'Controls' tab, and look in the lower right corner.

What version of the chronotron plug-in are you using? CSDS is only configured to use 'Chronotron I' and 'Chronotron II' plug-in.

Most CSDS users who use Winamp use the 'PaceMaker' plug-in, as this plug-in allows for pitch changes too. CSDS should work with any version of the 'PaceMaker' plug-in. If you decide to get the 'PaceMaker' plug-in, please register it, or CSDS may appear to hang because PaceMaker may bring up a reminder message box (e.g., "please register") underneath CSDS. If this happens, just press the 'Enter' key to clear the message box, and CSDS will regain control.
