Thank you for all your work on another great release!
Aaah, so wonderful !! I knew when I wake up this morning that TODAY was gonna be a GREAT DAY !! Tnx guys…
congratulations, great release!
Cool
What was this about a new render mode?
very good !
I hope these tools get updated
clearjunkdata by ledger
splitintoseperatetracks by fladd
customwavesynth by it-alien
slidetonextnote by joule
those are the tools I used most
oh yeah, is there no longer a way to leave comments on tool pages now?
I think the decision was made, as those comments would very easily get overlooked. “Support”-like questions should really be redirected here, as this forum offers some convenient tools (such as “watched topics”, which can automatically send an email when someone posts something). And for a productive tool author, his/her tool pages should constantly be checked?
The intention was good, but in practice it turned out to be a place where digital dust could too easily settle…
Thanks a lot for a great update! What I’ll be using most is track clones, and perhaps collapsible tracks and grouping.
@Newb,
I’ve updated slide to next note for 2.8. New Tool (2.7, 2.8): Slide To Next Note
Please report any bugs.
