How hard would it be to include an "export sound" button in the kit building window? Sometimes, when building a kit, or modifying another's kit, it is neccessary to tweak a sound and import it back into a revised DB kit.
Yes, absolutely. This will definitely be present in the next revision of the kit editor, which is one of the next things I am going to tackle. Same idea for the drum icons, as right now you can't export/reuse the graphics without first having them in external files, which is a nuisance.
Having said all that, it would be a redundant feature if you decided that it was worthwhile to implement the export of discreet drum sounds from a song file. In other words, I could more easily post process the sounds if they could be exported as separate wave files, making the "export sound" button not as important.
I want to eventually add this support too, with some kind of mixing controls for soloing or muting drums in the mix. I think both of these features, while similar, would both be hugely useful in their own right and not particularly redundant.
I appreciate you listening. I hope others are finding the application as useful and rewarding to use as I am. I'm getting pretty good reviews from the folks that I've either programmed tracks for, or who have heard my stuff in songs.
Awesome! I love hearing this kind of feedback, and I appreciate the continued support and enthusiasm. Rest assured that all of the suggestions and ideas are taken to heart -- my response on incorporating things tends to be slow sometimes (especially recently) but that's not due to lack of interest or desire! -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
