When I select input from the MIDI keyboard in the chord selector, I see possible scales applicable to the chord selected in the master track. It would be logical when pressing and selecting a scale, so that the scale would immediately be installed in the master track under the chord that was initially selected. That is, immediately, from the MIDI keyboard input window, without entering the scale in advance in the master track. Thank you.

Many drop-down menus are sorely lacking arrows that, when clicked, bring up the next menu item. For example, in the phrase inspector, when selecting voices in the menu from the list, you have to open the menu each time and look for the appropriate voice construction value in the list, instead of simply clicking the arrow to select the next value while listening to the phrase. Thank you.

I would like to have such an opportunity so that after I drag a progression or midi file to the master track, the already installed scales do not disappear and there is an option to automatically adjust the scales to the chords of the new progression (even if it is arbitrary, but with the subsequent selection of scales). Thank you.

Regarding previews of long phrases and midi files when dragging them to a RC... Example. Sometimes I would like to hear previews of midi files that I drag onto a track, but sometimes they are too long to listen to until the end every time. Perhaps a good solution would be to press the stop button in transport to stop the preview. Thank you.

I would also like to see the ability to collect phrases selected on different tracks into a new track. In my opinion, it should work something like this: I load several tracks with piano phrases, listen to them and select phrases that I like. But before that, I create a new track and give it the status, for example, Phrase Mix Track. And when I select phrases in different tracks, they are automatically copied to the Phrase Mix Track, and the selected phrases on other tracks are automatically muted. As a result, I get a new track consisting exclusively of phrases that I like and without any creation of new temporary tracks, copying, moving and deleting unnecessary tracks and phrases. Just a new opportunity to quickly mix selected phrases into a new Phrase Mix Track. I'm not even talking about how convenient it would be for those who play the MIDI keyboard, recording tracks live many times and choosing the best moments from their recordings. A dream ))

I would like to have the ability in the Chord Selector to synchronize the scales used to display chords (1/2/3) with the set scale for the selected chord in the Master Track with one click.
By the way, why are there 3 of these scales in the Chord Selector and not 2 or 6? Thank you.

Oh, I know a good one.. implement a coda! It could save a lot of memory if you could do that, then you could use jumps to parts/lines for repeats and get an ABA or ABBA, etc. As opposed to a long composition doing the same thing with duplicate phrases..

I think it would be very nice to make an additional browser at the bottom of the Composition window. This has already become a standard in many music programs. First of all, of course, you can place the Phrase Editor there. But you can also assign other windows from the Composition window tabs. Thank you.

I really miss a menu where I can quickly select the extension of the Master Track chords (triads, 7,9,11 or 13), preferably specifically for the chords selected on the Master Track. Thank you .

I have long wanted to suggest a very effective technique (for me at least)). This applies primarily to working with the chord selector, but can be used for other jobs as well. If I have a keyboard command assigned to open the chord selector, for example "O", then I could press this key and not release it, quickly select the desired chord and release the key, and the chord selector window will close itself. It would also be convenient to open and close inspectors and other windows by simply pressing the key with the command, enter the desired values ​​and release it, so that the window closes. I have been using this in DP for many years, which saves a lot of time in work. Thank you.

Regarding the browser. It would be good if in the browser settings options in the "Files" tab it would be possible to assign several locations folders for viewing and use. First of all, this is necessary for folders on external drives. Thank you.

Brilliant idea from Ample Sound. When you load a midi file onto a track in your RC, you often wonder where the midi file itself or even the phrase is on the track image. Maybe it's three octaves higher and you can't see it? Maybe it's too far to the right? And you start moving the track image up/down and left/right for a long time. The idea is to place a small image - a reflection of the phrase right on the sliders of the Composition window. You select a track and immediately see a small diagram of the location of the phrases along the entire length of the track on the sliders. Then you click on the desired place in the diagram and the phrase immediately appears in the track. I added a very small video for demonstration. Thank you.

When I drag a midi file from the browser to the head of a track, I have the following inconveniences. I can't listen to it beforehand, I can't see what it looks like either, so I have to drag it to the head of the track right away. But in this case, I lose the existing phrase on the track. Of course, you can create a duplicate track and drag midi files to it, but that's a lot of small and unnecessary work. I suggest making it possible to create numbered takes on each track, where track content options are stored and immediately called up, i.e. options from which you can choose.Thank you .

Perhaps, it is worth trying to make connections of chords in progression (with preliminary listening), before installation in master track, thus, approximately as I have drawn)) Just connect with flexible lines.The whole chain of chords is immediately visible. I listened and sent to master track. Chains can be saved as progressions. Thank you.

Actually, good idea.. but, rather than adding new graphics overheard with line drawing, all you really need is to multi-select the chords, ya know, the blue color selections as a connected progression. You could then preview it, add to the master track, or add it to the library as a progression, etc.
