hey is notice a short delay when using the kick drum... you can hear it pretty good when you have like 8 hi hats in a bar, and you put in a kick drum, its has a very short delay.. is it the sound file or a little flaw?? max

Thanks for a great program -- jack Hi Jack, No, there are no good instructions available yet. :/ (Still haven't written that part of the manual). Here is a brief run-down, which maybe someone else on the mailing list can supplement: - start by creating a new drum kit; I'd suggest duplicating "ben's premier kit.dbkit" in the finder, renaming it to something new ("jack's drums.dbkit"), then Open that file in Doggiebox. - you'll see a "drum kit editor" document window (not the same as the song editor that you are already familiar with). - choose an existing drum variant from the scrolling list, then use the controls under "instrument details" to select a new sound, rename it, choose the icon, etc. - to add a new sound to the kit, click "add new drum", then do the same. Crash course, hopefully will point you in the right direction...? :) -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca

Doggiebox 1A2 posted!

Greetings all, I'm pleased to mention that after a painfully lengthy delay, build 1A2 of Doggiebox is finally packaged up and posted for your consumption! New changes in build 1A2: - stereo panning for drum sounds now supported, along with a wider range of input file formats (AIFF, WAV, VOC, AU, IFF, PAF, SF, W64). This comes as part of a significant re-implementation of the audio subsystem which will continue to evolve over the next several builds. Note: you will need to re-import custom sounds into your drum kits; see included release notes. - no longer skips beats during playback under Mac OS 10.2 (when using new/updated drum kits). - bug fixed where preferences dialog would crash upon dismissal. - insertion point now follows pastes (moves to after the last pasted bar). I have not yet posted an announcement to the mainstream outlets (versiontracker, news sites, announcement list, etc) yet -- those of you on this discussion list get first peek. :) In addition to the usual feedback I would appreciate if you could confirm a couple of things: - that the app still runs as expected if you are still using OS 10.1 - that the app runs smoothly if you are using OS 10.2 (which I am now) - that the release notes are clear enough with respect to upgrading custom drum kit files to support the new code Regarding the last point, read the release notes (included) for full details. The issue is one that should only concern people who have made their own drum kits using build 1A1. (I'm not sure what percentage of the user base this affects, so it will be interesting to see whether this is a big deal.)
