    1. Introduction

    1.1. General

    This document provides last-minute additions, known compatibility issues,


    and troubleshooting information to help you use Stem Creator.

    1.2. System Requirements for Stem Creator

    Computer & Operating System


    • Mac OS X 10.8, 10.9 or 10.10 (latest update)
    • Windows 7, 8.1, and 10 (latest Service Pack, 32/64 Bit)

    General
    • Monitor with 1024 x 768 screen resolution
    • OpenGL version 2.1 or higher
    • 900MB free disk space

    1.3. Uninstalling the Previous Stem Creator Beta

    Before installing the latest version of Stem Creator beta, the previous
    version should be removed. The previous betas were not released with an
    installer, so the previous version must be thrown away manually. This
    simply requires:

    Mac
    Just move the previous StemCreator app to the Trash and empty the
    Trash.

    Windows
    The previous beta was distributed as a ZIP file which contained a folder
    which contained sub-folders for the 32- and 64-bit versions of the app.
    Simply move this whole folder (with all sub-folders) to the Recycle Bin and
    empty the Recycle Bin.

    1.4. Installing Stem Creator 1.0

    Stem Creator 1.0 is delivered in two formats which have their own
    installation methods.

    Mac
    Stem Creator for Mac is delivered as a Disk Image (DMG) file. Just
    double-click the .dmg file to mount it. You will first need to accept the
    terms of the End User License Agreement before the image will mount.
    Once mounted, the disk image will open and you can simply drag the
    Stem Creator application to the “Applications” folder shortcut on its right.
    Stem Creator will be copied to your Applications folder and you can then
    unmount the disk image. Simply double-click the Stem Creator app in the
    Applications folder to launch the application.

    Windows
    Stem Creator for Windows is delivered as a .zip file which contains two
    separate installer files. Extract the .zip file and then double-click either the
    32-bit installer or the 64-bit installer (whichever matches your operating
    system). Follow the directions of the installer and Stem Creator will be
    installed into the appropriate Program Files folder. The installer will also
    make application shortcuts in the Start Menu including an Uninstall option
    and a “Compatibility Mode” version of the application (please see the
    “Known Issues” section for a description of Compatibility Mode).
    2. What’s New in Stem Creator 1.0
    Stem Creator 1.0 is the first public release which includes the following
    feature addition from the betas:

    2.1. New Meter Ballistics

    The behaviors of the level meters have been improved with new ballistics,
    and the same metering technique is now used for all meters and sources.

    3. Known Issues in Stem Creator 1.0

    3.1. Compatibility Mode for Windows

    There is a known OpenGL issue with the Intel drivers for the Intel HD 3000
    chipset used in some computers. It appears Intel will not fix this issue, so a
    special “Compatibility Mode” version of Stem Creator is also installed
    which will cause the Stem Creator to run using DirectX instead. The
    Compatibility Mode version can be found in a sub-folder within the Stem
    Creator folder in the Start Menu. This version only needs to be used if the
    normal version crashes.

    3.2. Only AAC Encoding currently supported

    This version of Stem Creator does not provide any audio encoding options
    during export. Stem files are always created using AAC audio encoding at
    256kbps VBR except when using Apple Lossless (ALAC) files as inputs; in
    this case, an ALAC-quality Stem file will be made.

    3.3. Export Failures on Windows with Network Drives

    There is a known issue that Export will fail if the input audio files are
    located on a network drive. Please copy the audio files onto a local drive
    before loading them into Stem Creator, then Export will work correctly.

    5.1. Stem Creator Crashes on OS X 10.7

    Users who have tried running Stem Creator on Mac OS X 10.7 have
    reported crashes. OS X 10.7 is not a supported OS due to the graphics
    frameworks and tools used by the Stem Creator. OS X 10.8 and higher are
    supported.
