SlomoI find it strange when people out of nowhere somehow know best how someone else should run their company and developement of their product.
You can see the same tendencies over at RedUser.net (forum for the RED Digital Cinema Camera) where people tell Jim Jannard how to best run his company and what or what not to do and how little they should have to pay for it, etc. Sometimes he listens, sometimes not. It’s his decision. Same goes for Frits and Zynewave.
I compare Zynewave and RED because they’re both very transparent and have active communication with their customers/users, which I think is very good, but can easily be misused. This seem to have happend over at Nevercenter (maker of the 3D-software Silo), where they just stop to communicate with the customers/users and further developement of the software itself.
Take care!
SlomoSolved by using ASIO4ALL instead of the Digidesign driver (8.0.4).

SlomoIn the latest release of MediaInfo (0.7.36BETA), Explorer Tooltip (in Windows Explorer, move the mouse over a file, info will be displayed) now work in Windows 7 x64, which it didn’t in prior releases. A quick way to get audio files info.
SlomoThanks!
Yes, the Digidesign driver is definitly flawed.
Browsing the DUC forum there seem to be a lot of problem with the 8.0.4 update (from early july) and no solution to this issue except going back to the previous 8.0.3 version until a cs-fix is released.
The new driver is supposed to be multi-client where the former is a singel-client. Multi is always nice, the more the merrier…;)

SlomoExcellent!
Slomo“Arrangements & Media” and “Plugins and Mappings” are the ones I prefer.
SlomoI only have two feature requests and already a licence, so:
1. Video track
2. File managemant: Consolidate, “…an option to copy imported files to the project folder -> “save and collect””

SlomoYes, that sounds like a good and creative solution.

I assume you mean holding Ctrl+Alt while dropping. Could be a solution. But then we have the same possibility for confusion, as we had with the old Alt key phantom drag behaviour, which is that you need to press Ctrl+Alt AFTER you have clicked. Otherwise you would start a zoom drag.
Yes, that’s what I ment. A unique solution/behaviour to get a Unique copy, easy to remember.

The arrangement editor is special in that there has been two copy modes (unique and phantom). If both should have their own key (Ctrl and Alt), then to follow the consistency rules, the Alt key would not be usable as drag key shortcut in the other editors.
I found this to be a unique feature in Podium. My concern is that you make a phantom copy, forget to turn it into a unique copy, do some serious editing and all of a sudden end upp with an odd number of all phantom copies.
Can Unique copy be assigned to Ctrl+Alt instead of Ctrl+U?
Not much of a snapper 😉

• Dragging phantom copies in the arrangement editor is now done with the Ctrl key instead of the Alt key. The phantom copy can subsequently be converted to a unique copy with the edit menu or the Ctrl+U shortcut.
What’s the point in this? It makes things more difficult as far as I can see.
I agree with Ortac. I have an established workflow using Ctrl and Alt all the time. It’s easier to learn new behaviour than to change old 😉
Slomo+1

Crazy idea?
Not at all. If I get your picture right you find something like this in 3D software e.g. Maya. Could be great!

You should really make a track before anything else.
You’ll soon realize that the problem you have is the problem and you’ll learn new ways of making music.
Animations? Mayby a little animated wizard floating around and pointing how to make music..? 😉
SlomoNice!
I’d remove the ‘extra’ C-key on the right side for balance.
