Frits,

as an aside to this, in the short term could there be an option to output a file containing all the links to files, both those added by the user as sounds, and those maintained by Podium. From some earlier experimentation, I have a few directories with old bounce tracks, some of which I reimported, others I didn’t. I would like to clean out the unused files but an scared to at the moment!!

A text file named after the project, with all the links (maybe even the VSTs used as well) would be great. Doesn’t need to be anything momentous, just a straight listing..

any chance of this???

I say keep it. I’ve just been doing a load of editting, and used it a fair bit.

It’s useful in looking at wave forms, selecting a portion and zooming in, etc, and knowing that it’s non-destructive.

It could be kept, but not a default on the menu bar – but outline it’s function in all the help files, and how to add it to the menus.

I understand it, appreciate it, and use it. Most sequencers I have used have this facility, going right back to Atari days, and it is a logical part of knowing your track – and essential when exploring someone elses!

I voted KEEP IT!!!

I agree with some of these points..

A tool box appearing, on right click (instead of context menu) would be a big plus as well. Pictures are more easily recognisable than reading text, and people do ALOT of tool swapping.

well, rather than toolbox, icons will do me. These can easily be implemented by using owner-draw menus. On menu creation the ownerdraw flag can be specified for each item. Handling the drawing shouldn’t be too much of a problem, especially since icons are already to hand!

When resizing a note, (from the right side) and making it shorter, you cant see where is going to end.

I realise that the note goes alpha blended when resizing, which is nice, but could it go a different colour and alpha-blended? this way the whole not can be seen before the final decision is made. I have found myself undersizing, then expanding to the correct size. You could invert the colour, or just invert one of the RGB values to make a difference (this would not interfere with any user prefs…)

I’ll post more soon!

HMx is a good abbr! (even HMx ™ for good measure!). I think you should stick with the term heirarchic and it’s derivatives, after all, it’s what it is, and it doesn’t half sound good!

thesaurus.com doesn’t suggest anything useful.. just checked!

HMx… hmmm…

DSP

Pretty much makes sense to me…

I like the ‘subtitles’ – very clear.

Can’t think of anything more helpful just now!!
