Attila and all forum members Hello!
Continue to improve the RC! ...

First about different:

- I want to be able to enter chords using MIDI controller into Progression Editor
- When you change the tempo, TEMP PREVIEW ALSO MUST CHANGE
- Proposes to make the possibility of horizontal drag and drop activate the blue line timeline (what is commonly called a cycle). MOVEMENT OF SUCH intensify timeline (1.1-1.3) in positions 2.1-2.3. THIS IS VERY COMFORTABLE MADE IN NI  MASCHINE
-NECESSARY-Able to delete all at once phrase variations (and of course the opportunity to do WAITING user presets)
- It is waiting VISUAL (COLOR) SYMBOLS PHRASES PROPERTIES (relativity or absolute)
- KEYBOARD command to change the GRID AND SNAP
- Record in real-time overlay and without overlap, and erasure RECORDED WITH THE NEW CYCLE
- - ADD quantization NOT ONLY START NOTES, but also the length

About GENERATORS:
-generators create the "application directly to the selected" in the phrase track to Do not press two buttons (generate! and applies to the selection)
- IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE Autoplay (autoprewiev?) In PREVIEW GENERATORS, AFTER USE THE "Generate" (NOT ALWAYS PUSHING BUTTON PREVIEW)?
- PHRASES IN LENGTH generators should be able to adjust STILL LESS THAN ONE BAR!
- In BASS-GENERATOR make several separate lines smooth adjustment of the length of notes, long notes, first, the second will be short notes and other options, because 3 fixed lengths score is too low and primitive! STILL add octave variation
please and user presets

About A NEW WINDOW "Properties SCALE IN THE MASTER TRACK":
- THIS IS A VERY GOOD IMPROVEMENT
-- WHY NOT IN THE NEW MASTER TRACK create multiple SCALES WITHIN ONE ACCORD? (You can certainly make a copy of ACCORD, and in it is a different scale, but it would be better that in that case the partition SCALE (SCALES, NOT CHORD)
- I not like what window closes me notes in the track
- I would like to add user presets (THAT WAS QUICK ACCESS TO my favorite Scales ), BUT NOT THEM SEARCH every time in the "Other")
- The most frequently asked by my students QUESTION OF RS is: you can choose any scale from MENU AND ALL WILL BE RIGHT TO PLAY, BUT WHAT KIND OF TO CHOOSE scale still better? I ALWAYS DOUBT THAT ANSWER: PLEASE USE YOUR EARS! Let's discuss it!

About the features that fascinates me in other musical PROGRAMS AND I
WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THEM IN RC:
- TRANSFER groove (rhythmic formulas) one phrase to another (or from MIDI files?). THIS IS MADE IN TOONTRACKS EZKEYS.
- Every so often people come to the conclusion that in the midi track has TOO MANY midi notes ... AND SPECTRASONICS STYLUS RMX CONTROLLER IS THAT JUST reduces the amount of MIDI notes! And to become simply BUT BETTER!
- When working with tracks in PC WE ALWAYS HAVE ONLY ONE PHRASE (or choose other) BUT HOW HAVE SEVERAL OPTIONS Made?
LET play or generate phrases will be always at hand and CHOICE (MAYBE I played well PHRASE 3 and 7) It is brilliantly done as TAKES In DIGITAL PERFORMER!
-WOULD LIKE TO USE FUNCTION MIDI notes of a chord one key TO EXACTLY rhythmic play chords with one key (MIDI notes) THIS IS MADE SUCH In Xfer Records Cthulhu
- Made in PERFECT OPPORTUNITY DIGITAL PERFORMER in the main window COMPOSITION PACKING track in the folder (merge them visually in a group)

Thank you! To be continued ...
Sorry for my english!

Hi lulukom,

thank you for all these great ideas! You can be sure that most of these will be added sooner or later. I can't comment all items, but some of them are badly needed, and some of them are planned for a long time (like transferring rhythm from one phrase to the other).
I added all this to my to-do list...

Thank you!
Attila

Thanks for the answer, Attila!
How is the tuning plugin and DIGITAL Performer ?
It is waiting for the possibility of normal work with the plugin ...

Hi lulukom,
sorry, I haven't had the time to check what is wrong with the plug-in and digital performer. It seems to work well in other VST hosts.

Hi Attila!
Some more notes ...
-Firstly the most important moment for me! ...
Is an opportunity to use different scales on different tracks!
From a browser "Chords" I can drag a chord on the Master - track ,
but from a browser "Scales" can not be dragged anywhere scale (((
But the best option (which I coined so far) will
dragging scale from a browser "SCALE" directly on the phrase in the track
Then SCALE will influence only a specific phrase inside which I want to hear this SCALE!
What do you think about this?
This would change the total dependence of all the tracks that belong SCALE master track!
I often need to master track has not acted on some of these phrases and phrases could play other modes! ..
-It would be good to sections between the SCALE master track could move just as delimiters chords!
-If you work with the second monitor, it would be very comfortable to move on him something similar to general dock for browsers (Or master browser?) Where I could gather
all browsers (track and phrasal and master ...) for the current song, not to do things all the time to open and close the browsers and other service window!It is desirable to make this master browser presets for use in other compositions!
--Why in "Note Editing Mode " on the audio track is "Note on velocity " ? This is why?
Thank you! Sincerely lulukom!

Hi lulukom,

it is very interesting what you wrote. I have not thought of that some tracks obey to another master track than other tracks. I wonder how useful that would be. I hope others will comment on this.
There could be tracks like:
[Primary Master Track]
Track 1
Track 2

[Secondary Master Track]
Track 3
Track 4
...
all tracks using the master tracks above them.

Docking inspectors and browsers will be implemented.
"Note on velocity" was displayed due to a bug, which is removed now.

Thanks!
Attila

Hi, Attila!
I am very glad that you understand what I wanted to say!
You correctly wrote about how it can be done!
I will be very happy if it will be done in RC, for me it is very important!
Thank you !

I haven't yet understood.

Perhaps because I'm a little weak at the present moment and the mind not very awaken...
:D
A little sketch, perhaps, with some arrows or indicators showing the advantages? Just to help me to clarify the request in my mind...

Yes, well, that at this point seems to me like this ...

Well about windows scales in the sub master track to understanding ... And I must say why you need chord windows in the sub master track?
I very often use chord substitutions (e.g. modal) , but to always remember (and apply on the total composition) of the basic harmony is the main master track, and to apply other chords (and other scales of course) on specific track can be used sub ​​master track!
Oh, how hard it is to translate Google-translator!))))
Believe me, it can be quite a different level of programs for serious musicians! (But still pretty cheerful!))) Now I have to do a lot of work with different harmonies and modes to achieve the desired results with the RC! ()
What do you think about this?
If I wrote is not very clear, I'll write more!
Thank you for your attention!
PS Picture done quickly and not "musical" for visual presentation is just an example .. (but I know that Attila always does more and better than we expected!)

I must say this is an interesting concept, however, I am not sure I understand the usefulness.

This is likely due to my limited understanding of music theory.

I think it will be interesting to see the results of multiple scales from multiple keys played simultaneous.

The concept does open possibilities to further production.

I would think though the results may not be what one expects and a lot of trial and error will be involved.

But then what is a good score if not trial and error from the beginning? :hihi:

Good job on the mock up lulukom! :tu:

Happy Musiking!

A feature like that would open the possibility to compose polytonal pieces and therefore it would be very useful.

Or it would be useful simply to play an ostinato in one voice and something different in other voices.

Or to split complex chords (with many notes) into simple chords (with few notes) which then could be distributed at the sub-mastertracks and played by different instruments. This "split chords feature" also could be automated, i. e. the software should be capable to automatically split for example a chord like "C7/9" into its sub chords C, Emin and G and distribute them to the sub-mastertracks (which then can be played by different instruments).

So I say :tu: to this feature.

I also approve of this feature. :tu:

I think it might also be useful for a composer to be able to see chord progressions in different keys notated in two different subtracks simultaneously using Roman numeral notation. A composer could then see at-a-glance where the key modulations are functionally happening via the overlapping chord progressions in different keys:
Image

I am curious about other complex scenarios, such as if the subtracks could also have their own time signatures (meters) that are different from the master track to support polymeters:
Image

I am not sure how many folks would find it useful (nor am I sure how difficult it would be to implement in software), but a feature to support different tempos on a subtrack would allow more flexibility when notating rhythms (e.g. bars of a 12/8 meter with a faster tempo that synchronize to bars of a 4/4 meter with triplets playing at a slower tempo); the resulting combination of meters and tempos would need to resolve to the same time to ensure synchronous playback:

Of course that would also be useful.
