Yes. I find that if I have, say, a couple of hours of material – music, or dialogue for example – arranged sequentially on the track page, that if I only want to render a few minutes starting at the 1 hour point, the render process seems to start from the very beginning of the timeline. I once had to edit 3 hours of a forum into individual speeches – you can imagine how long this process took. Is it possible to specify where the render begins and ends… or have I missed something?

Are you using the “render within punch range” command? The render should start where you set your punch-in position.

I really like the wav browser on the right hand side – right eyed or whatever. It seems a little cluttered having the Inspectror and browser bunched together. Is it possible to add align right/left?

I’d like to keep the embedded inspector and browser bunched together. If you prefer a different setup, you can open a browser window and place it to the right of the project window. The F9-F12 key shortcuts can be used to switch between different window layouts.

Beta 2:

• Added “export to sound file” to the arrangement editor and sound editor file menus. The commands show a dialog with bit resolution and normalize settings. The arrangement export uses the bounced audio of the master track. An “export bounced audio to sound file” command is also available in the bounce submenu of each individual track.

• Removed the MIDI and bounce settings from the effect track properties dialog. The bounce settings are now exclusively managed with the track bounce submenu. The MIDI settings are still available in the source track properties dialog.

• Reorganized the layout of the fader, meter and bounce track submenus.

• Added “move bounced audio to new track” command to the bounce menu. Removed the now redundant “hide bounce track lane” option.

The “export to sound file” dialog will in the future be extended with settings for sample rate, dither and encoding to mp3, ogg, flac etc.

Drums 🙁
I would say (yes I have said it before) that the Midi drum presentation and set up is now just so far behind other parts of Podium (as of 2.22 especially) it really does stand out.

How about a one click set up?
I would ask if possible to consider adding a “Drum kit” button to the Presets panel for loaded VSTi’s. Currently the “Use Preset as drum kit” is hidden well out of view. Clicking on that new button should also automatically delete all notes that do not have drum note names as well. Those changes would at least get drum presentation and set up to a far more pleasurable level. More is needed but these two changes IMO are really basic, critical needs for that area of Podium at this point.

What about this…? 🙂

Your “critical” priorities are changing almost as frequently as mine :). That updating the drum editor is critical was not on your mind when we had the most recent VIP discussion of what I should spend my time on. The drum editor is scheduled for an update, but I would like to keep that out of the current series of overall UI revisions.

Zoom Presets

Studio One has a rather nice little feature which i dismissed the first time I saw it but find it quite slick in terms of its simplification of UI navigation. Its effectively a set of Zoom presets for the Arranger. Any chance of that kind of feature making it into 2.22?

Not in 2.22. I think it was in the preview topic for the navigator that I mentioned I plan to add a zoom snapshot feature. The blank space to the left of the navigator will hold the controls for the snapshots.

Added a new video showing how to assign and record a VSTi, and how to assign a VST effect:

Thanks. Favorited. I like that you are keeping the videos short.

I was surprised that I didn’t get an email from Youtube, even though I’ve subscribed to your channel. Apparently I only see updates to my subscriptions if I log in, and go to the “subscriptions” page.
