just a minor inconsistency in my view: in pattern view, RShift button takes precount into account (this sentence feels weird in my heads nerves) - but not in mixer view! The other, sample/keyzone, neither. In the situation where I’m about to record an automation part for the intro of a song I really dig the 4 beat precount to ‘get ready’, also to actually start the automation (in this case a resetting XY pad) on line 00 at a specific point.
PS. XYPads are the most annoying things in the world to get right in automation editor. But who cares. Renoise 0wnz0rz.
