exs 24 facelift

[kim krause]

not sure if this old thing will ever get a makeover so i decided to do my own...

[dupont]

Yes it should but in my opinion lot of thinks need to be updated before EXS24 UI.
For example, improvement of the automation editing with drag & drop support, transform tool, shape tools as in Studio one.
Logic in far behing S1 in this area and it's a pity to use Logic automation for heavy editing, if you ever tried to draw a square shape automation in the hyper editor view, good luck !!!

I hate the flat design fad. If EXS24 ever gets re-designed, it better not be flattened.

so after some thought i went back to the basics...inspired by the beautiful sunshine of today...

You don't draw a square shape, you just set points.

if it follow the tendency of the updated logic plugins and Alchemy, it will be flattened.

The originals are much easier to look at.

Hey, how did you create that lane in the step editor for the EXS24 Filter Cutoff? Can't, for the life of me, get that one to work. Wish it were as simple as: "create new lane based on GUI control" > wiggle a GUI control and bam, lane created. Would also make region based automation so much quicker.

If I might step in, all you do is ensure the instrument or effect is on the track or AUX Bus in question, and all the parameters, including The EXS24 Filter Cutoff, appear in the list waiting to be chosen and automated. It's really that simple.

You must use the pull down menu, and it's easy though I believe you also could assign to a Smart Control.

Sounds like the space is ripe for an automation primer! Track Automation is my preference and it is very simple once you get the hang. Region Automation is essentially the same as Track in mechanism.

Yeah, I know... I'm really sick of the destruction of design. Some of the new stuff looks great, and then they followed it up with the flat shit in later updates. Apple has utterly lost its way with design.

On studio one just clic @ drag the parameter on the controler lane, on Logic, euh...sorry, too long to explain.....

OK I know that but I want to be abble to draw a square straight on the piano roll and don't want to assign a new lane on the hypereditor.

Thanks anyway.

Thank you for your reply, but what you are talking about is the automation view in the arranger. I'm talking about how to get a parameter to show up in the step editor (the third panel in the piano roll view).
