  1. I agree buses are the first thing to reach for if I want to solo some drums, vocals, instruments etc.

    I would prefer to have a list of all tracks on the left that we could just quickly scroll and click on/off (to show/hide in the console view), like they do in pro tools. That way we could keep the console view much more tidy while mixing. We can't do it now in cakewalk quickly, can we? To show/hide tracks we first have to bring up the Track Manager (H) and then click each track that we want to show or hide, separately. We can't swipe over quickly or shift+select a bunch, or is there any other way in cakewalk to speed up the process?

    I also would like to have the ability to assign a track folder to a bus. Then we could only show the ones we'd want to work with, for example drums, and have only those tracks visible in console view (or track view). Now the OP could just click SOLO on the drums track folder and have the same he's asking for :)

    Really? What do you use it for, if I may ask?

    Snap By takes care of order in my projects by keeping clips in their relative position on the grid while copying/moving.

    The way I'm used to keep clips organized in my projects makes them almost never perfectly aligned to bars. Unless it's electronic kick or snare, most of my clips will be slightly off the grid or anywhere in between bars. That's because if I do record live audio, I cut somewhere between the breath and voice or guitar notes, if I do MIDI acoustic drums then I tend to play it live on keys or pads and I never quantize 100%. And so on. That way most of the notes, say kick, fall somewhere around the beats but never exactly on the beat, clips can start a couple ticks before or after the beat.

    If I used Snap To instead, then it would happen exactly what Mark says to the clips, and their relative position would have got screwed.

    Unfortunately there's not much left, so the robots will replace the musicians, then the producers, then the listeners.

    It's already getting there, think cthulthu chord packs and progressions or some melody packs, drum grooves, vocal chops, all the ez-stuff etc. Music can be made with a mouse, pads or midi keys used to trigger a sequence of chords and not the melody... more of a programming rather than playing music.

  4. Just came back to say a big thank you again Larry, for your gesture. I re-subscribed in the meantime and managed to get the last call mail with my code too, but then I saw that the dark basses instrument I was eyeballing was excluded from this promotion. What's great though I have found out that I already have it buried deep in my emails so I must have got it somehow a couple months ago, just didn't install it because of lack of space :D so again, thanks Larry 👍

  5. Noel is right, it's the second time single click on an item that's highlighted already turns it into rename. Could be gone since there's F2 and right click, that would unclutter the experience.

    That said, I'd love the whole browser being updated with a simple waveform or a small transport so that we could be able to select/change position when auditioning very long wave files.

    a resize of that kind after reopening a window would make perfect sense when the window is docked

    well actually I would prefer it to remember it's state even when docked, that's because I would like my project template to have the console view maximized and just pulled down (with D key) so everytime I open or create new project I could just click the D and have the console view full screen in my face :)

    Just out of curiosity, do the developers ever look at these feature requests anymore ?

    From my experience, yes they do!

    I guess I've given up.

    I'd suggest not giving up, repeat your request or continue topic so it will stay near the top. When more people come into discussion and rate the topic there's much greater chance that Noel and the squad visit it and then something might happen.

    The code may be generic but IDK....I'm not going to use mine
    if you want it

    thank you Larry, I'd gladly use it but I think I'm gonna give dee a chance cause he looks like he'd like it even more than me :), if that's ok? (didn't want to speak for you... but I did:D)
