I know this has probably been covered ive only been on the 5k for a couple of days
was going to sell the 2500 W/jjos2xl but decided ill keep for a while until i decide what unit im going to keep.
some issues ive noticed
1.Trim def.needs to be overhauled I miss the Horizontal/vertical zoom jj provides in the main trim window,the sliders
on the 5k for trimming not very responsive very laggy.
2.Going into mixer mode and sometimes switching banks lags a lot.
I Miss renaming via pads. the #'s are okay tho, i can deal with that.
3.Save over a existing project in the HD (replace) i know i can on the 2500 with the jjos?
I miss hitting the pad you want to trim and then mode+trim and samples already loaded the locate feature is not that bad.
4.loading a sample and pressing 'KEEP' sends sample all the way at the end of the sample list i like the alphabetical way better hate scrolling all the way thru the end for the sample i just loaded.
Also it there a way in grid edit to see all notes not singled out tracks? that would be nice,imma have to get into the manual a little more.
Preview sounds in HD via pads would be nice!
Thats all i can think of right now,
Well enough complaining,gotta make some beats! Peace


OOPs i can you move this to BUGS thread
Thanks
