THREAD QUESTIONS
|
||
|
----------------
|
||
|
- which thread should:
|
||
|
- change playlists on a diskstream?
|
||
|
- change diskstreams on a track? (we don't support that in the UI)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- can we reliably construct a copy of the RT state, instead of
|
||
|
using locks everywhere?
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTES FROM THE MAILING LISTS
|
||
|
----------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
-- gerard --
|
||
|
|
||
|
Region gain has some bugs. They dissappear when trimming. Don't always
|
||
|
playback correctly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I had some strange things with a chunk where the last region seemed to use
|
||
|
the audio file as a peakfile. It played back correctly, but it showed up
|
||
|
frames_per_peak too large.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-- gerard2 ---
|
||
|
|
||
|
Automation.
|
||
|
I see that automation editing is in the TODO. How about the whole deal:
|
||
|
Changing it during aplay. relative or absolute, latch (is that the word) or
|
||
|
momentary override etc
|
||
|
Is this for >1.0 ? It is not that important for me but maybe for some
|
||
|
folks...
|
||
|
|
||
|
Better metering configurability. Post/pre etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Gui interface consistency.
|
||
|
|
||
|
more keyboard shortcuts for f.i. (are they hard to add?):
|
||
|
-arrow keys to move selection from region to region
|
||
|
-seperate region. This one can be the same for split region, if there is
|
||
|
a range selected seperate, if not split.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Should playhead also snap to grid?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Adding/removing snapshots through snapshot pane.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I would prefer to move the pre and post roll adjustments to the options
|
||
|
menu, and have a start/end/duration of selection clocks.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A way to deal with misbehaving plugins. They shouldn't be able to freeze
|
||
|
ardour.
|
||
|
|
||
|
What is the current (and planned) edit-group functionality? It doesn't seem
|
||
|
to much.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-----
|
||
|
|
||
|
make use of transients a run-time option
|
||
|
panning for export
|
||
|
|
||
|
mute automation event
|
||
|
|
||
|
region length/end editor clocks don't modify position
|
||
|
|
||
|
should we allow N-channels regions to be inserted into non-N-channel routes?
|
||
|
|
||
|
auto-crossfades are unreliable/hard to predict/confusing
|
||
|
reset declick curves when doing a region copy (only if auto-crossfading?)
|
||
|
|
||
|
audio clock editing
|
||
|
- make drag work again
|
||
|
- use tick field
|
||
|
|
||
|
post fader plug/inserts get into a very inconsistent state wrt active/not active
|
||
|
mixer strip widths are not persistent across state save/restore
|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
timefx region length error (check back with audacity crew)
|
||
|
send gain control is clicky.
|
||
|
some regionview names don't seem sensitive to canvas events
|
||
|
splice mode needs to work correctly all the time, at the right times
|
||
|
removing a port then adding a new one can cause duplicate names
|
||
|
plugin automation buttons don't update from a plugin signal
|
||
|
how to handle multichannel selections
|
||
|
apparently selected location on startup of locations window, or
|
||
|
when creating new location from selection is *not* selected
|
||
|

|
||
|
to the correct sample rate when connected to an external

||
|
