AIFF (etc) export in 1A5 is great news - just what I've been waiting for. A couple of other things have occurred to me when using DB lately: Someone else on this list recently very kindly offered to convert their AKAI files to DB format and put an example TR-707 kit on their website for download. I got hold of the kit and it sounds great - if that person wants to do a load more, as they suggested they might, I'd be more than happy to get my paws on them. Thanks a lot for the 707! The only trouble is I can't see my drum "hits" in the DB window using the 707 kit - is there a way round this? With the Premier and Voice kits I can see the pattern, but not with "external" kits. Also, I don't know if this is already possible, but if a default setup could open when I launch the program that would be perfect. What I mean is if there was a preference for automatically opening a new song with 4 bars, or 8 bars, or 16 bars, or whatever. It'd save having to open the Insert Bars dialogue window every time. If this is already possible, sorry - ignore this! Otherwise, Doggiebox is shaping up very nicely indeed. Good stuff! Regards, Jonathan Wilson
