Set list feature bug

I'm trying to use the Set List feature that's accessed via the Sounds menu to make a set list of projects for a live performance. All of my projects consist only of audio channels, so when I navigate to the Sounds menu to get to the Set List feature, I get the error message "Sounds not available for audio track".

This seems like an unfortunate side effect of "hiding" the Set List feature in the Sounds menu.

I could work around this by adding a "fake" MIDI track to each of my projects, and then make sure to select that before I navigate to the Sounds menu to access my Set List, but that's more convoluted than just not using the Set List feature and using the Project Load functionality in the Browser to load the various projects of my set.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Just DELETE all of your tracks first, and then no audio track is selected, and you can access SOUNDS / SETLISTS. No need to add dummy MIDI tracks.

Notice how adding "just" makes everything easy? Just jump through hoops.

Lampdog: setlists are for loading entire projects, .xpj files. Right? No idea how someone thought that it makes sense to put that under "sounds". I can't help thinking, the people who make this software, don't use it themselves. Or they're not in touch with actual users.

That's something we have in common. It feels like the hardware & software we're made by separate 3rd party independent developers from 2 different countries

Thanks, makes sense, but I've already got my projects fully populated with audio tracks, and I'm really looking for a way to very quickly go from one of them to the next in a live situation.

Looks like the Set List feature isn't quite working well enough yet to support my use case, unfortunately, so I'll be stuck going to the Browser and just load the projects.

Not the end of the world, but sure would be nice to use the Set List feature to, well, make a set list

Timo: if you're willing to take the risk and hack your Force, using multiple sequences might be a way to build a quickly switchable set of songs.

I have not tried it.

Thanks! While I'm glad that there's a Force hacking community out there, that risk is too great given that not being able to use the Set List feature is a pretty small inconvenience in the big picture of things. Appreciate the pointer though!
