Ren'Py Developer Update - March 2024
Added 2024-03-31 14:01:29 +0000 UTCWelcome to the end of March, and happy holidays for those who celebrate.
This month had a lot of development on the next major release of Ren’Py, focusing on the audio filter feature. In this month's article, I’ll cover what went on this month, some of the design of the audio filter feature, and how to use it. And along with that, you’ll be getting access to a tool that will let you try out some of the filters yourself.
Thanks for your support, and I hope you enjoy this update.

This isn't really the right tool to do dynamic/adaptive music. You can pretty much do that already with queue music, or by starting music on multiple channels and adjusting the per-channel volumes on the fly.

I'm not skilled at the audio side of things, but I'm curious if the mix feature help if you wanted to, say, implement dynamic/adaptive music, like in the Monkey Island games? I can see that being really useful for a VN where there might be long sequences with the same kind of mood.
