Podium cannot affect VST interfaces, it’s controlled by its own rules. This happens with all plugins.

However you can be more accurate adding parameters to the mixer or inspector and using them instead plugin controls. This won’t work with some VST parameters. To do it hit f4 on your keyboard, click on Editor button in inspector and check those parameters you want to add

*Ahem* I was also thinking, since the tool selection shortcuts are omitted now by default, the RMB’s functionality has been ever so slightly reduced to near zero in most editors, if I dare say so. Maybe it’s time for the a-tool-per-button concept to emerge soon? O:)

Yes, I agree with this one

Liquid, that looks like a great start into “videomakership.” 🙂 Mind if I ask which program you use to record that lets you zoom like that?

You never will know it muhhahahacamtasiahahaha 😀
I started to do some small tutorials about Podium in my youtube page [user LiquidProj3ct]. I hope there aren’t too many errurs wiht mi englysh 🙂

You can now do it by Shift+clicking the enable/solo/mute buttons, similar to how it’s done with the track solo/mute buttons.

Thanks, it’s enough 🙂

Drumazon is a plugin that allow you use patterns OR simple drums. The different pitches (piano roll keys) acts as patterns OR simple drums.

You cannot change easily the drums names (you can use some black magic to do it, though) but it’s easy change the name of each pattern for each key (and move/copy them). I did this video for you. Notice if you have demo version you cannot use single drums, only patterns, but it will serve you.

Very poor quality, I’m newbie doing videos 😳 If you need more clarifications feel free to ask

To bugs:

1. Snap doesn’t seems to work fine moving events, it depends where you start dragging
2. Ghost notes for drums are showed now in regular Piano Roll (and they shouldn’t)

See this video (will be deleted soon):

Thanks Frits, you did it. Few comments:

– Is there any way to unmute and unsolo all keys? If there isn’t, please add one.
– When you use the note enable mode button the scroll is displaced to the first note. Maybe you could displace it to a center position or C-1 position, since all drum samplers and drum synths work in this range.

Are you sure? It works fine here.

If there are any selected events, they will be centered. If the selected events extend beyond the vertical space, then the topmost selected event is aligned to the top of the display. If there are no selected events, then all events within the displayed zoom range will be centered.

Yes, I was sure. This happened me with beta 3, now I cannot replicate it. If I find it again I’ll study how replicate it.

Can you confirm that, when used in other host software, the plugin will update the drum key names accordingly?

I can confirm you (with Drumazon/Nepheton) that FL Studio piano roll updates automatically each time you do a rename inside drumazon. Reaper piano roll updates when you re-open the piano roll, keeping the user names instead plugin keynames.

I have the same impression when I worked in the past with other host. What siegfried want to mean is that if you quickly move long notes the preview can be annoying since it overlap with other sounds (with it same timbre) that are playing. This can confuse you while you’re dragging a note looking for the best interval in relation with other notes.

The preview can be improved if when you keep down the mouse you trigger the sound until you release the button that it sound should go to release stage.

And, a personal desire about previewing notes in piano roll with the same objetive (look for the best interval) would be that preview notes were automaticaly disabled when Podium is playing. Or at least a quick button to turn on/off the preview. Because when you’re playing a loop improving the relationship between notes the preview is annoying due to the same overlapping with other sound with the same timbre. And while Podium is stopped you don’t have that problem and it can be an advantage hear the pitch before release the mouse.

Frits, when arrangement zoom is as far as possible you cannot resize individual heigh of each track

Also, it would be a good idea that you can use the same shortcuts that we use in the editors and arrangements in another windows, as mixer, ctrl+alt+mw horizontal zoom and shit+alt to scroll

I don’t have the need of see the true lenght of the event. What I’d like is treat drum roll events as piano roll events, where you can adjust their lenght. It isn’t too important though, but it’s good for consistency.
