Ugght 🙁

Sorry to say this. I’ve my best wishes for Podium, but I think this new interface for inspector is really ugly and unfriendly. I don’t want offend you in any way, but help as I can.

1. Why use a button for select slots? A simple left clic should be enough.
2. To cluttered! It’s caotical!
3. The most plugin has their own gain knob, or you can a simple plugin for that. You need use very very very few times, near zero, the gain and pan meter that you use in efects.

We want do music, not develop a termonuclear car engine! 🙂

So, what do I suggest? Draw in paint it’s difficult so, excuse me the quality 🙂

On the slot:
Left click in a empty slot for a instrument/effects menu
Left click in a busy slot for select it
Double left click show/hide the instrument/effect and select it
Right click menu with options/parameters

Allowed drag&drop, if the destination is a slot the efects should be exchanged. If the destination is a space between slots the efect should be erased from its original place and inserted in a new slot where the user dropped it. With shift/ctrl/alt the effect should be cloned/deleted.

The knob you see at the left of each slot is a dry/wet knob, it’s a little feature request 😉

You can adopt the same behavior for the mixer, where drag and drop effects is more important. Do it easy and inmediate please! 🙂

edit: I have to admit that I like more the second screenshot, I’d wish it has an inmediate and easy behaviour!

Thanks you Frits!

I am considering an alternative tool system, so that’s why I am not making minor changes to the existing behaviour, as this could turn out to be wasted work. What I am considering is to have separate tool selectors for left, middle, right and X mouse button, instead of the current bar of left-click tools. Thus you can select “select” tool for left-click, and pencil tool for right-click, etc. This method is used in some other hosts. I believe Logic Audio uses this type of tool selection.

Yes please!!!!!

Don’t know, but I’m anxious to get working on this myself. My current focus is to streamline the workflow of the existing feature-set, before I start implementing major new features.

And more yes!!!

Could you set Tab key to rotate between profiles please? I only use two of them and for me have one key for both would be ideal 🙂

Thanks Frits, i wanted to mean the showing of menu bar, the hiding doesn’t matter 🙂

Ok, so it’s the opposite of what I thought you meant. Why do you want to delay the showing? Is it because you often accidentally move the mouse to the top when reaching for the inspector/browser tabs?

Yeah, and the navigator (in my own setup). Thanks 🙂
