Interesting ideas. So essentially, Applescript'ability. I'll add that to the wish list.
Also; integrating everything into a singe-window-interface is a bad idea. I feel that floating windows achieve greater flexibility for people that use multiple monitors, or people without enough monitor space for all of the tools to be displayed at a time.
Which components would you put in floating windows? The drum kit palette is an obvious one I guess. Anything else? Too many floaters would confuse things though I think.
• Basic viewing and listening to different sections: - need to scrub easily through song, perhaps implement some scrubbing window
Yeah, this will be improved eventually, including such basic things as "play from cursor", etc.
• editing -quick keys for setting up tools to modify and create beats within a section, this would closely tie into the scrubbing window for quick access to the desired section.
Can you elaborate on this?
Also! possible export into formal stave notation?
That could be a doozy. It would require a lot of work and research which is kind of orthoganal to the main functions of the app, and which other commercial tools do pretty well. It would be neat, but unless another developer would like to take charge of it, I don't see it happening in the immediate term. -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
