I'm not sure whether or not he was the main developer of Notion. Either way it still worries me.

In the "About ..." box, there are many names including 'Josh'. I have Notion 4 by the way.
I really hoped that S1 version 3 would have a good score editor in the same level of Cubase and Logic, but oh well. It might be not that requested feature. I mean, it is a very hard work and I don't know if it is possible now to do it at this stage (Cubase and Logic have the score editor since early versions).
I thought to completely migrate to Cubase Pro/Full, but I feel tired from going back and forth trying to figure out the best DAW. So, mostly I will keep using S1 version 2 till the end of this year then mostly upgrade to Version 3. I feel comfortable with S1 and already found many macros that can fill most of what I need.
I will keep my music separated I guess. Score editor like Notion (or maybe Sibelius if the development of Notion would be halted) and S1 as Midi/Audio DAW.
Yeah, I hoped the same thing. It could still come later on in the life-cycle of version 3. It would be a nice addition for a 3.5 update but something in me tells me that we won't see it at all during version 3 which is disappointing to put it lightly. But that's just a gut feeling. I hope I'm wrong about that.
In regards to it being hard work, I thought it would be a little easy to do a score editor. Not a completely new one from scratch, but somehow integrating a bit of Notion into Studio One. I don't know how that would work, though. It might be more difficult than doing a score editor from scratch although I doubt it. I don't know for sure, though.
That's how I've been doing it so far, too. S1 for the DAW and Notion rewired to S1 for Notation for projects I don't just compose completely in Notion and then export the MIDI to Studio One. It's a bit of a pain in the ass using Notion rewired to S1 for MIDI input, but it's better than nothing at the moment.
I guess there's a small chance for at least a very basic score editor/Notion integration in the version 3 life-cycle. Time will tell, I'll say.
Yeah, probably eventually. I'm not too worried about it no being integrate. I'm primarily worried about when. I know it's not the most popular feature request. Hell, it's probably not anywhere near it. But it's still an important thing for the people who are requesting it. Yeah, I was surprised that no mixer undo made it into the initial release of version 3. I guess we'll all just have to wait and see what comes in future updates. I'm going to assume we'll have a 3.5 update in about 1 1/2 years, give or take a few months. Just a guesstimate.Funkybot's Evil Twin wrote:I have to think Notion will eventually be integrated. Seems like too big an opportunity to pass up. Most of the hard work (developing a notation program) has been done. Some things may need to get tweaked and enhanced along the way, but I'm optimistic that Notion integration is on the Studio One road map for some future release. Then again, I thought we'd get Mixer Undo in version 3 and I was wrong on that front, so what do I know.Arcane Master wrote:Did Josh really leave? Man, that's pretty worrying.

Sorry for the wall of text hehe.
