[*]Pressing the Insert key in the arrangement and note editor now supports duplicating a multiple event selection. If snap is enabled, the duplicated events will be snapped relative to the next grid line. Pressing Shift+Insert will override snap. Pressing Ctrl+Insert will snap to next bar.

[*]Realtime bounce recording mode now automatically creates the sound events for the recording.

[*]Realtime bounce recording is no longer limited to the length of the arrangement. It will continue to record until stop is pressed.

Very, very cool and useful the Ctrl-Insert shortcut, also the realtime bounce updates were a must.

I found some problems and I think they’re related.

1. Please, take a look to this gif. I modify Clip 2 and then I exchange its place with Clip 1. When I start to play the arrangement the play cursor goes through Clip 2 piano roll editor, when it shouldn’t be.

2. If you timestretch any event its editor isn’t updated very well… anyway, if you only resize any event (without timestretch it) the shadowed bars on Piano roll aren’t updated hint hint hint if you are going update this last bad behaviour update the way piano roll is shadowed too 🙂

Many thanks-

While we’re on the subject of drag handles: would it be possible to apply the action to all selected items instead of the one you’re just dragging?
So if I select 4 items and then use the resize drag handle on the last one to gate it, they all gate by the same amount (or have their volume adjusted or are stretched, depending on the drag handle)

You can see this sort of behaviour in lots of ableton live and logic videos and I like it (I instinctively try to do it this way all the time)

Don’t think I haven’t been tormented by this also 😛

OK, good to know the designer in you is still alive and well. 🙂 Also, great work on the new video!

Yeah, applying any sort of action/command to everything that’s selected is probably the single-most standard computer behavior, I’d say. Since the note editor got updated for this, I hope it’s only a matter of time before the arrangement editor and tracks follow suit! It’s even on my top 5 list! 😛

Another handle? Imagine an audio event with four handles in each side, too much I think. Why don’t you fusion handles? I mean, you can join in only one dot timestretch&resize handle and using a key shortcut to alternate between them, usually before click ALT for timestretch.

I agree with this… The current behavior of Alt-clicking anywhere on events to resize them is very nice as well, but it wouldn’t have to be sacrificed if only Alt-clicking on resize handles was used for time-stretching. You need to see the handles anyway in order to time-stretch, as opposed to resizing.

… as I can see while I’m learning Sony Vegas HD 9 demo, because Camtasia demo expired already (I won’t do more videos with it :P)

I think I can recommend the new Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 10 (lots of confusing product names…). Most importantly, max track count was increased, and it should cost the same or even less than 9. I finally got around to ordering it too – should be in the mail by now.
