Editor buglist/wishlist

2004-08-23 by Richard Scott

Is there one? Maybe we should compile a list for the pC and Mac versions so our gripes are at least collected in one place; Here is my little start - it will be a long list!
I'm on PC. My main problem is that without a manual it is difficult to know what is going on - what is in the evolver and what is in the editor is not always clear. I'm not at all convinced it behaves consistantly in what is saved and what isn't.
The genetix thing is crazy, as patches that you save in the list sound completely different when I reopen them. I mean it just doesn't seem to work in any sane way.
I keep loosing contact with my yamaha WX5 connected as a keyboard, esp. in gentix this happens all the time and I need to keep restarting the program.
Wishes:
more sequencer functionality! I'd like to be able to
randomise/invert etc within a particular scale... have more arpeggio shapes
and different kinds of stepping - just more more more really as I find the
sequencer great for noise stuff but not so accessible for melody -
the software goes partway to addressing this but a little more would seal
the deal

if the editor could remember the last place it saved to it would help.

gentix needs a single button to lock all pitches on all osc when randomising

I'd love to be able to print out the contents of banks from the editor as well - with the evo lacking a display these bits of paper could be very useful

the osc readout could be in notes rather than numbers, like the synth - and a quickway of shifting whole octaves would be a nice timesaver too...

a question: if I want save the current settings of a patch within the evo
and I scroll thru the evo bank to hear which existing patch i can overwrite
then I lose the patch I've been editing. Is there anyway around this?
Richard
