Effects in Mixer
Reply with quote

At this ChainSong i had a bug with the mixer.
Its not REALY A BUG im missing something.

While running a song with some automated filters:
Open the mixer. Over the volume-metere you see enabled or disabled effects.
Sometimes there are patterns in a song, where filter are not in use. When you opendend the mixer on a pattern where f.E. 2 from 5 effects are enabled, the mixer will show this the whole song.
This means when a new autoation starts at another pattern you can only see this in the mixes, when you open it again.

Open the last chainsong06file. On startup open the mixer and let the module play.
You see St. Delay/noFx(grey)/noFX/noFX/noFX ...
While playing youŽll see nothing is changing there. Would be nice to see changes!
Stop the module. Go to pattern 01 (-----SoulEye-----).
Press play and open the mixer again. Now you can see that there the filter/automation was enabled/used.

Understand what i mean?
Sorry for bad english.

Greets daFassi.


LifeŽs a song ...

This probably has to do with the way MT updates the screen. It makes no sense programming-wise to constantly devote CPU time to check if things on the screen that probably don't change, or change very seldom, during the course of a track need updating. Thus things like showing if a fx is active or not are only updated when some specific action from the users part requires the screen to be updated. If you move the horizontal scrollbar in the mixer it should update these types of things also, so no need to close/re-open the mixer.
