This is an extremely relevant link that's tons 'o fun. I'm not a trained drum corp guy, and even some of the names of the rudiments are immensely entertaining. http://webmayhem.net/drum/

Any chance there is an uninstaller so I can get back to the original release before going over to Panther? Sion

1A24 - should work on Jaguar
by Ben Kennedy 01 Nov '03

All, I've replaced last night's build 1A23 with a new 1A24, which has minor changes to the way a couple of libraries were linked. The last two builds (1A22 and 1A23) apparently failed to launch on pre-10.3 systems at all; this should fix that. If you're on Panther and already downloaded last night's build, no need to get this one. Thanks to Mike and Charlie for bringing this to my attention. <http://www.doggiebox.com/distribution/Doggiebox-1A24.sit> -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca

SV: Re: [Doggiebox] Beta 1A23 (pumpkin day)

I second that notion in a biiiig way. Right now I first make the full drumtracks in Doggiebox, then I have to make 5 stripped down versions of the same track -- one snare only, one hihat, etc. Then I export them all seperately.... a "mute" or "solo" type button would be great. Also: I might be missing out on something, but is there a way to make DB start playing at a given point within a song? I know that option+space lets you play a selection, but to me it would make total sense to have DB start playing wherever my cursor is, rather than start at the beginning of the song every time. I`m actually finding that I`m using Doggiebox as my #1 arrangement tool -- I do all my song sketches in DB, figuring out which part goes where, etc -- simply because it`s so incredibly easy to use... and it`s nice to finally have a drummer that always plays in perfect time, never complains, and thats sober even on a saturday morning ;-) >>> Doug <dozuki(a)sbcglobal.net> 01.11.03 0:07 >>> While driving today I remembered a previous discussion about other features to be implemented The one in particular I was thinking about was the ability to export individual drum tracks (such as just snares) out of a DB song. For those working with loops in sequencers or anyone using a sequencer this feature is incredibly useful. Reverb, delay and other effects sound horrible on Bass Drums with deep heavy bass. Being able to have separate tracks for your drums gives you great control over the final sound of a drum mix. This is also extremely useful for applying compression.... Anyway the simple solution as well as an intuitive one would be to have 'mute' and 'solo' buttons on each of the drum's tracks (or just a 'mute' button). Also the number of tracks is limiting to me. I often use multiple types of Hi Hats and having all of these go to one track was frustrating, especially as the track wouldn't clamp them all and I had some open hi hats ringing over the top of closed Hi Hats. I'm full of ideas and suggestions, so If I'm overbearing, please excuse me.
