Does this include the idea about using multiple kits in a single dbsong? That would be _sooooooo_ cool :) I like the idea of dueling drummers :)
Yeah, eventually. :) The multi-kits idea is a good one, and should be fairly easy to work in. I'm going to focus on improving the single-kit interface first though, then once it's better, look at the extending it for an arbitrary number of kits.
That makes sense. :) Anyway, I'm too broke at the minute to buy even a cheap sample library to make a good secondary percussion kit :)
Good point, that's an obvious preference setting asking to be born. I suppose I should attend to the as-yet-unimplemented setting for "create new songs with X bars initially" thing too.
Sounds good. Thinking of things that happen when opening files, I've noticed that whenever I first open DB and then open a dbsong, it pops onto the screen with the edit window visible, but then seems to extend the kit list out to the left _off_ the edge of my screen, meaning I then have to drag the whole file window to the left so I can see the kit list. I've only noticed this recently, but I don't know whether this is something Doggiebox is doing or whether its some weird window-location pref on my machine that's gone awry (I'm assuming its opening the file window close to the left-hand edge, then later and separately popping out the kit list without thinking about where the screen edge is). Of course, revamping the way the kit is displayed might well make that problem go away whatever its source. Cheers, Carl -- Carl Edlund Anderson mailto:cea@carlaz.com http://www.carlaz.com/
