I can't seem to get the phase editor to populate the drop down list for the instruments/tracks to preview with correctly.. It doesn't see "all" the tracks I have in the composer side. Am I missing something?

I have just tried this on Windows and OS X and it worked for me.
When I added a new track, the menu was updated, as it should.
How can I reproduce this issue?

Thanks,
Attila

Ok, yea, left some info out.. lol sorry. I just installed LoopBe so I can send midi to the stand alone versions of my VST's. However, I am naming the track. It does see the first 2 tracks like this..

Ok, somehow, it is updating but, not "instantly". As I add a new track, it see's the previous tracks, but, not the new one.

Ok, I think I figured it out. When you add a track, the preview in the phrase editor gets the default info. When you rename the track, that info isn't passed to the phrase tab, until you add a new track. So, it "looks" like it doesn't update. am I correct?

I see what is wrong. When you rename a track, the menu is not updated, you still see the previous name. It is updated only when you add or remove a track. I'll fix this, thank you for reporting it.
[EDIT: it is fixed now. A new bug-fix update v3.23 will be uploaded early next week]

Thanks,
Attila

no problem..

If it helps, I am a retired software engineer.. so, I know the process..

Also, I need this info "how to" .. how do I restrict the midi keyboard range for a track? Some instruments I will be using only plays, maybe from C1 through maybe C2, for example.. (like low brass) .. I think I have every thing else worked out.. yay! well, almost, haven't touched percussion yet.. lol

Then you will learn RC very quickly

There is no way to limit the keyboard range during editing. There is a variation called "Limit Note Range" that works on rendered phrases. It will either remove out-of-range notes or transpose them into the allowed range:

Another option is to use the 'phrase magnets' when you have multiple phrases inserted continuously. All phrases will be transposed automatically to follow the previous phrase. If you right-click on the magnet, there are several algorithms offered. Transposing the very first phrase will transpose all connected phrases. This may help to keep the phrases in a keyboard range.

Well thank you very much!

My only disappointment so far, is not discovering this software sooner..
