ok…
another idea could be..if the keyboard editor is opened you can have automatically opened a selected curve editor part…ant have them horizontally stacked…
is hard when doin’ fine automations strictly related to the note part if you can’t see the actual notes…
in-place in the arrangment is good anyway..

If there is a click, then it’s just a single sample silence. The reason is that bar/beat time based arrangements are not using samples as internal resolution. So cutting at some bar-beat position is likely to be at a fractional sample position. If your arrangement is created with the Linear time resolution option, you won’t see this problem. I will check up on my code for converting bar/beat-time to sample-time. I should be able to obtain sample continuity if I am careful with how I round off fractional sample positions.

great!..thanx for the reply…so i’ll be able to see anyway bar/beats divisions with the linear time option?
EDIT : nope it’s a ‘time’ visualization…for video soundtrack editing?
thanx

1. The zoom bar should zoom the visibile area at the window’s center…like the zoom tool does.

In one of the latest releases, the zoom bar was changed so that it zooms around the play cursor position. Put the play cursor in the middle of the time range, and it will zoom around center. Otherwise, use combinations of shift+ctrl+alt to temporarily engage the zoom tools.

thanx i’ll try :)..sorry for my noobieness 😳
EDIT: but does’nt works in the demo version wich is 1.20..am i right?

2. I’d make the pencil switchable to rearrange tool

The pencil tool does everything that the rearrange tool does. You don’t have to switch to rearrange tool to move stuff around. Only reason to do so, is if the event resize arrows make it hard to select and drag/move short events.

ok..can i do multiple selections draggin the mouse with the pencil tool..then copy paste or cut paste etc. ?

3. The pencil tool could be used to split (part and notes) too with another mouse/key combination or whatever.

At some point I will implement user-definable key shortcuts, so that will enable you to set up shortcuts for all the tools you desire. It is difficult to set up defaults keys for all conceivable tool combinations.

cool…custom shortcut and mouse handling is the way to go…one can have possibly different sets for different pourposes 🙂

4. Velocity editing is quite difficult when you have many overlapping notes

This is where the velocity editor ‘Edit only selected events’ menu/button toggle comes in handy. When using this mode, you can e.g. select a single note event in a chord, and then edit the velocity of only this note.

ok..but the whole point to me is to avoid the classical mouse dance of piano-roll/controller area/piano-roll/controller area/ etc… when you have complex polyphonic textures or complex beat to edit it needs a lot more time..but if we can i.e. press V with the pencil tool and drag on a note or on a multiple selection of notes..it can be very very confortable…this is the only reason i miss logic audio 😥 👿

🙂 thanx for your very complete reply 🙂

what do you think about OSC?

I haven’t studied the OSC spec, so I don’t have an opinion about it. You’re the first to bring it up in relation to Podium. I think there are a ton of other features that I need to work on, before jumping into something like OSC.

sure 🙂

it was just curiosity

thanx

exactly…or even a way to assign a midi controller input in the parameter properties window…maybe even OSC (OpenSoundControl) messages 😉

btw is now possible to automate the plugs using their GUI controllers?
’cause i noticed that if i do it via the Podium curves their knobs/sliders/etc.. does’nt move according to the automation…or am i doin’ something wrong?
thanx

🙂
only with midi over lan…one computer is dedicated to midi
the other one to softsynth/fx/audio…
but ..hey how can i sync podium?
thanx
