v4.91 - yeah, me posting an update the 3rd time in a row!

makes sense

Thanks JJ!!

But just a thought,
When using the slider it moves the start point over the whole sample.

Whould it be an ide that if you zoom in it is more finetuning?

Like just afleckting the zoomed area?

nah. think of the slider as the same as the data wheel, just...a slider. sometimes you've gotta go outside the displayed area!

i agree with blippo. right now the way it is, the sliders are good only for coarse adjustments. as soon as you zoom in a couple steps for finer work, if you move the sliders even just a little bit your edit point will shift quite a bit and go flying off the screen, making you lose your edit place.

it would be better if the sliders functioned like the data wheel does & made finer adjustments when you're zoomed in & coarser adjustments when you're zoomed out.

maybe JJ just intended the sliders for coarse use only, but i'd rather be able to use the sliders for all the edit work & save the wear & tear on my data wheel.

hmm let me take a look at this and i'll see if i vibe with it or not

edit - you guys rule. dead on, 100% accurate, thanks for calling this to attention.

i just drew up a Adjustment Report

"NOTE:

1- load sample
2 - enter trim
3 - move to Start (St: 00000000)
4 - move St one turn of data wheel RIGHT
5 - NOTE: St value. Let us say St value = X
6 - reset St to 00000000
7 - fit f3 once, to ZOOM IN once.
8 - move to St: 0000000
9 - move St one turn of data wheel RIGHT
10 - NOTE: new St value = y

x>y. the more zoomed IN you are, the finer the INCREMENT.

could it be made that QLINK+AFTER adjusts in a similar method? currently, it is say that QLINK+AFTER is too coarse."

no joke. the nice thing is with ZOOM and the SCRUB function, you won't have to touch your data wheel at all. PLUS, you won't have to move the cursor buttons back n forth between start/end, either.

perhaps a system where the sliders only affect the portion of the sample that you see on screen would work? so, however far you are zoomed in, your sliders can sweep the start/end point across that screen, rather than the whole sample.

thoughts?
