What are you still missing from XT2?

[M1]

YESYESYES GLUE PARTS!!! PLEEEEEEZE! yes jorgen i think with the new clip-based automation (which is totally awwwesome for simplifying things, very streamlined) this is abloutely neccesary.

[keyman_sam]

Anyone here tried inserting EXT1 as a VST in EXT2 and using EXT1 with EXT2? Just a thought....

[Caleb]

Yeah I tried that. I wasn't impressed with the solution.
I can't remember completely was ticked me off about it - but I've been struggling to make eXT1 a sequencing solution in slightly less capable hosts: XT2 and REAPER and coming up a bit short.

In truth - it's a while since I tried eXT1 inside XT2 so maybe it's a little better now.

What you guys think of a feature that allows in the piano roll to select a single note and choose to play a chord based on that note?

For instance I could make a part, quickly insert some single notes and for each one choose a different chord. In that way it would be really easy to try out different chord progressions. It might include options for arpeggios or strumming. I got this idea playing a bit with the chordspace playa demo in which it's possible to choose a different chord for each key.

Dunno if it's been raised before or if it's possible already in some way, I bought the program today and I'm still not very familiar with it, just thought it would be neat.

cheers

Just to add to this, I decided to start an XT2 project using XT1 embedded - not going too badly for the moment. I'll see if the experience is better than last time.

i did, too ... but i am still not satisfied with the skin-operators, though they are better than none ...

did someone else recognize a problem with VSTs syncing to the sequencer ?
i tried using jamstix,but it doesnt respond to XT-sync signals it seems...

There are VST midi effects that will do just that. Matter of fact, Cubase 4 has one just cant remember the name of it right off the top of my head

I would rather not see the feature built in but included as a midi vst. But thats just me

shame on you. you don't know NicFit's and Soma's plugs? that's blasphemic

[dirty oscillators]

external sync to midi?

or does it do this already?

[original flipper]

HI

+1 for both the 'Glue' and 'folding unused outputs of a multi-out vst'.

Flipper.

I think my plugins are great but really this would be a PIA to do with a plugin. I think what he wants to do is take a lead and turn each note into a differnet chord/inversion. Plugins would be great if you want each note to be teh same chord but if each note is a differnt chord (7th, minor, major, inverted, etc.) even automating with the awesome chord space is a pain.

That said, , it would be very cool to have this as a feature but maybe after more inportant parts have been added.

If Jorgen gave us an SDK for the composer , :wink wink: I would love to write such a feature.

[paradiddle]

Still have the soma one note beta you wrote for me. Really cool to make drones!

[Diek]

the new lice stuff will be very different to v1.4

cheers

See how the Live mode will work it's what I miss.

[matt42]

I think the best thing would be if for every instance of the mixer (not possible atm) one would be able to select (like a menu with checkboxes) which channels will be shown. This way one could have different mixers for different things(instruments, drum mix ...) AND one would be able to hide unnecessary multiouts.

+1

yep that's exactly what I meant. I bet there are a lot of more urgent features that must be implemented, it was just something I thought would be cool to have someday or another..
