I wish I could play back sections, for when I make changes or want to hear what I've just put down. I usually have two editors open so that I can copy and paste but that is a little clunky.
You mean like if you hold the Option key and click on the Play Song button that will automagically become Play Selection? :) (or if you really do mean sections, like in teh section list... you can always double-click the section in the list, then Play Selection). However, adding a Play option to the section marker functions is a good idea.
I wish there was a playback indicator, a line or something.
Yes, coming. :) Priority lately has been reworking the audio substructure to facilitate stereo playback and AIFF export. But a playback indicator will be in the next build, unless I forget in the mean time.
Finally I wish that there was a way to express two sticks on one drum for volume and tempo. Two sticks on a floor tom sound different than one and I can't seem to make a decent drum roll _or_ a high hat run like "Run To The Hills"
True... I wonder how this would be done, and effected within the program. In one of the demo kits, I was going to supply some double-snare stuff and whatnot, but I guess that didn't make it in to the examples yet.
Also I seem to need to do everything in 12/8 which is a little weird, or maybe I'm avant garde, tough to say:)
I know what you mean... I've found that a little bit myself... although I have to admit I've probably spent no more than an hour and a half actually USING the program yet; all effort has been on development... soon I hope to be able to step back and try the darn thing out myself... :) I want to come up with some unconventional (read: new and versatile) ways of expressing sub-rhythms, or 'rhythmlettes' or something shall we say, to facilitate doing things like triplet fills (and such) without need to specify a 3-based time signature all the time. hmm.
Again awesome product.
