What Sion's suggesting could be a big help. Have long felt need for another level of structural display between db's Sections and Playlist, to allow trial-and-revise work on overall design. His boxes offer a neat solution, provided they can be made fairly foolproof and easy to rearrange. -Sterling

boxes

Hi Ben I use db a lot and have been thinking about the way I use it and the way songs and sections could be organised more graphically in the playlist. I don't know if anyone else feels that it can be difficult sometimes to keep track of the song structure. I find that I either make a whole track in one go with many variations which is then difficult to edit later, or I just do an easily editable track but with no variations. My suggestion is to show the song structure as it currently is, but to show the sections used in the playlist elements as blocks - you could then instantly see for example that the intro is one block of 4 bars, the chorus, 4 ; verse, 4 etc. The blocks could be labeled numerically and with shortened labels so the user can keep track of where each bit is in relation to everything else. You could then make as many variations as you like in the sections box and still have a complete overview of the song I've photoshopped a rough visual of my idea for you to look at here: http://82.42.121.47/~sion/Files/music/Doggieboxsuggestion.jpg Cheers Sion Morris Liverpool www.cinnamondesign.co.uk/music/music.html -------------------------------------------
