estwingHi Frits,
Ive just spent a couple of hours with 194 with the Inspector mostly open and tracks with empty lanes hidden and its value is more apparent to me now. It shows me the heirachy, track names, gives access to the edit buttons etc for each group.
Also it gives access to the Input mapping so i can double click to selct my input channel when moving between tracks and groups (useful when recording guitar parts on various tracks) which I seem to do very often
so i’m not sure about your idea to change the inspector as mentioned in page 3 of this thread; and the compact mode in 195 gives fast access to busses,effect routings etc but you still need the inspector for the input mappings; midi and audio.
mart.
estwingit sounds like agood idea to me.
thanks Frits.
estwingHi Frits
say i have seven active group tracks with thirteen lanes containing audio events etc, i may also have an extra four unused group tracks present since the project is worked from a template so i could have 20 tracks to hide and i have to do this on a per track basis
mart.
ok i’ve just tried my most recent project in 194 and when i have the “empty” tracks hidden, provided i keep the inspector open i can follow the routings for each group easily.I suppose in the past i have tended to keep the inspector closed to keep a bigger full screen.
estwinghi frits
the “hide track lane option” would have to be applied per track, whereas a global option would instantly optimise my screen for arranging purposes. when I only need to see audio midi and controller events, I could switch between this macro view and a micro view of track groups as i wished.
this idea just seemed relevant to the work you are currently, and recently my 17″monitor has felt too cramped.

estwingYes.
give the option to “hide tracks in group with empty lanes” and I will be even happier
mart.
estwingHi Frits
after trying the new beta:
I’m not sure if the compact view in the inspector is useful to me,the commands to move tracks are precise but I generally drag them around the main screen (and use “undo” when i drop them in the wrong place)
In the main screen I like the “set default track height”*
but I would use the”+ -“minimize function instead of hiding tracks in group , It does not take much space and still gives an idea of what is hidden.
When I am working on the “whole” project I would find an option to minimize all tracks that do not contain midi,audio or controller data, this would make the best use of the screen to me when used with* above.
thanks, Mart.[/u]
estwingThanks Frits,
I’m currently running 128 sample latency,so i guess I wouldnt want to go below this when using lots of VST automation.
Mart.
estwingIs the buffer size the same as the latency set on the sound card ?
estwingHi Frits
I’ve double checked I’m on ch 16, and midi notes act as on all other channels ie triggering individual hits. C#3 has no effect.
The on/off button simply mutes/unmutes the sequencer output.
I will contact Nusofting, hopefully they will have some ideas.
thanks Mart.
estwingI didnt change a thing just installed 1.83 and the editor was different
after trying various things Podium gave me a message about a corrupt file and instructed me to “load the default setup” as you said.
luckily I have a “save complete setup” file of my preferences, and loading this did the trick.
cheers mart.
estwingthanks for the update Fritz
one thing, I can no longer find a note velocity editor attatched to the bottom half of the piano roll, have you changed anything or could it be something I have done?
cheers mart.
estwingHi Fritz,is it possible to import midi files in the same way?
mart.
