Hi,
It would be great if Cakewalk fully optimized the Matrix view, with options to record and edit audio and Midi such is in Ableton Live. Essentially having a clip launcher inside Cakewalk the same way Digital Performer incorporated it in their update to DP10. This would be useful for not only performance but brainstorming and trying ideas before the Arranger stage.
In the Matrix view, you can have clips of different lengths playing together giving it far more flexibility when mixing different ideas together on the fly. the timeline gets very messy having so many different ideas scattered about, having a pool of cells and scenes to choose from is much neater and would improve workflow tremendously. It could also work nicely to convert your Matrix scenes to arranger tabs and build from there.
If each cell opened up either a piano roll clip or an audio clip in which you could edit them further and include the clip automation, that would be highly effective.
Thanks,
Paul
