Hey hey. Love your darn tracker. It's awesome.

I'm using the WIP(which is ridiculous good) and I have a request.

When I go to change any parameter(such as pattern length, # of patterns, etc.) and then go back to tracking, if I DON'T explicitly click on the pattern field before I start tracking again, everything will be normal EXCEPT for the fact that whatever parameter I was just adjusting still receives key commands, causing all sorts of weird things to happen. What would be best is if you could click on parameters, make your change, and then have the focus immediately not be on them any longer. Whatever mousing can be taken out of the equation, the better.

This tracker is hella good. Don't believe me? Check out my 3rd NSF made in your program: [url=]http://www.planetskill.com/test/s-tortilla.nsf.

Thanks a lot! You're the man.

Hey and thanks, it's always great to see my efforts being appreciated! =)

I can disable key inputs for the song config boxes, but then it won't be possible to enter values from the keyboard. Shouldn't be a problem though, if anyone complain then I'll just add a setting for it.

That NSF rocked!! Keep up the good work!

Sound excellent! This has been a problem for me a long time, don't know why I didn't report it. Often I press Space after changing a value (to enter Record mode) but instead I change the value again...


The best way to change the values must be to have special keycommands binded to different values. Something like CTRL & + to increase step settings etc. This should be someting can change to what they want...

JSR that sounds good. If you could have unfocused buttons that could be changed by clicking on them, and then be able to double-click the number shown to enter a value, that'd be hot. There is behavior like this in programs such as cubase and other sound apps.

Thanks for the kudos!

SkillySkillz: Sounds like a good option.

big_chip: That makes me wonder, have you used this program for live performance or are you planning to? It was not really intended for that in the first place, but if you think it'd be feasible then sure I can add your requests.

I have thought about it many times and at a party once tryed and it sort of worked changing songs in the drop down box bit that said song#1 and so on but when you change it it flicked straight to it so if you didnt press your button at the precisce time it sounded wrong.

Also the bit at the top where you put the patterns in to make a song. If you press (i think it is) Shift+Enter it only plays that one row in it and you can click the next row down to play that one but once again its easy not to get it in perfect timing.

What would be great is if when you did either of these actions it waited till the part that was playing had finished and then skip to the one you selected. Like the live mode on LSDJ. I dont know if that made any sence at all?

I just think it would be a great tool to use live
