I voted “Other areas not covered above (say why please)”… the reason being that, while each item is pulled from a different area of the “future development” list, they work to a common end. The items are:

– MIDI file export. (UI related)
– MIDI Time Code support. (Engine related)
– MIDI plugin support & Rewire support (Plugin related)

The common end, in simplest terms, is that each of these allow Podium to work with other programs in one way or another. While Podium matures, those who are missing certain features can possibly work around them using one or more of these.

Also, I’d love to see the count-in feature implemented, under “Engine Related.”

So while my vote went to “other,” I’m pretty much happy to let Frits decide.

Hi Osofaux,

I must say I was not sure if it would be necessary to add a *misc* or *other* option for the poll but it looks like it was a good idea. Thanks for the explanation as well, I have never really looked at it that way.

I voted ‘engine related’ – audio fade-in/-out is most important to me…

I almost forgot about that. It would be very nice to see such feature make it’s way into Podium at some stage. I think a dither option is top of my list now that mulitprocessor support is on the way.

I am happy with the decisions of Frits , but i voted like Osofaux for plugin developpement , particularly about midi plugins 😀

Hi Francois.

There seems to be quite a few people interested in plug in development. A small collection of plugs developed by Frits is an interesting idea.

For a long time I have had an idea for a multi-fx plugin. It would solve both the problem of missing EQ and dynamics in the Podium mixer, as well as offer a solution for multiple effects on a single track. I’ll probably start experimenting with this soon, after I wrap up a few minor things.

Very clever.

While the wrapping process for getting FX on tracks works very well in that it provides a very visual way of working with FX and being able to see the flow upwards to the master out, the mulitfx option sounds even better.

I voted for “engine related”, because imho the feature of offline bouncing is the most powerful. I wonder why nobody else seems to think this way. Freezing tracks takes much too long in real time, and when it comes to the final mix, I tend to master directly in the host and not in a certain wave editor.. thus every mixdown needs to be done in realtime. So Podium lacks a feature that nearly every other host has. I still do not dare to mix my band’s album with Podium, what’s really making me sad.. I like Podium, but I need that feature (together with MultiFX per Channel 😉 )

Perhaps our next album will be recorded with Podium 2.5 or so.. Time will show.. 🙂

Just my thoughts…

please with 0 samples delay, if possible!

read the forums and you’ll see, that you are wrong with saying “nobody …”

[Podianer]

@ Dandruff

🙂 You’re right! Nobody is wrong! But in this specific poll, nearly every other feature is requested more.. that’s why I thought I need to mention it.. 😉

I think offline bouncing will be welcomed by many. I was initially very surprised that Podium did not have this feature when I first started looking at Podium over a year ago.

Many hosts have it. I use the realtime bounce feature which is very useful, quite unique in it’s operation, but I would certainly be interested in being able to bounce down a 3 – 5 mniute track offline. It’s just quicker. I would not want to lose the real time bounce option though.

So if offline bouncing is an additional option then definitely yes, I fully agree. 8)

Me, too!!! 🙂

@Podianer..
Just for the record, look on page 1..

tbh, even when it comes, they’ll be times when I still use the realtime bounce, just for that ‘seat of the pants’ mixing experience!

It’ll come, but I think Frits needs the space to get the best way to do it mapped out. There’s plenty of things for him to chew over 🙂

call me weird, but I love the online bounce, for the “what you hear is what you get” factor. But I wouldn’t complain the say offline bouncing arrives 😉

I don’t know of any other host that even has such a feature. I think Logic has / had a realtime bounce option as well, but I don’t think it’s implemented in quite the same way as Podium.

Let frits do his stuff. If it’s got us this far, im sure it will keep going 🙂
