a mixing screen?

[AD80]

hmm. There is a such thing as "DEMO DOWNLOADS", try before you buy, and not just fly because someone says it's good.

STOP BEING REASONABLE! YOU'RE GONNA SCARE THE NEW GUYS!

PS: When I first switched from Cubase two years ago I wanted a mixer for the first week. But then I came to my senses.

[jplanet]

It just dawned on me. You could have a tab for a mixer the same way you have a tab for Edit/Projects/Settings. That would leave plenty of room for the GUI to provide a powerful mixer with advanced routing capabilities without crowding the interface.

Flanneljammies, you just gave me another great idea....









































....how about a Cubase-style mixer in Tracktion?

[Lunch Money]

Wait, what about:

A Logic-style mixer in Tracktion?

That would be Jim Dandy.

[braj]

How about a modular control section in Tracktion that we won't call a mixer because though it could do that it could do a lot more and calling it a mixer just upsets some people?

You can create a mixer using the racks, but you can't control it with your outboard hardware... No automation of things within the rack.

and if *that* doesn't scare off the newbies, nothing will...

[semiquaver]

the problem with a mixer panel is that you would end up having to flip back and forth all the time just to see whats going on. I would prefer to see any new mixing functionality on the main page somehow.

me too although my corkboard panel feature I requested long long ago would give dual monitor peeps the best of both worlds

Yeah I'm not about to go back to flipping back and forth between things like Cubase. "Open the mixer, open the instrument rack, oh its behind the mixer, close the mixer, choose instrument, oh no I need the mixer again, now I have to edit some midi close everything, click click click click" Bah. Even screen sets sucked.

I think it would be helpful in Tracktion to keep the last volume/pan filter on a track locked at a certain size. I think it would look alot cleaner. Lockable filter sizes.

[stash98]

either way, i am getting killer mixes in T2..it is just a PIA the ass to do certain style submixes. Like sending all your drums to a 2 way stereo file and also to a parralel out with all the tracks in it still..stuff like that is tough to do in T. So maybe just make parallel mixes way easier to do

Hey Rock, what colour scheme you using there?

[Rock]

Hey Rock, what colour scheme you using there?

One of my own, which was based on Multree's Bright.

It is listed as Briampsol in the scheme's sticky... but this is a version with a few fixes.

I hope I won't get rebuked for posting this here but I don't have time for an ftp right now.

You can create a mixer using the racks, but you can't control it with your outboard hardware... No automation of things within the rack.

Yes you can, Just make the amps in SE or SM and make them respond to MIDI CCs
