Qtractor

Not sure if this is just an error on my part, but here goes.

I open a clip editor, and go to shortcuts. I then assign short cuts to step note forward, and step note back. When i try to use these shortcuts, i get two results. 1. The note doesn't move, but just sounds (when using the step note forward shortcut). 2. When i attempt to use the step not back shortcut, the red playback cursor jumps to bar 28080, or close to it. As enthusiastic as I am at the idea of writing symphony after symphony, i'm not sure I could get to that number of bars in my lifetime.

I've been going through the shortcuts list, in an attempt to further streamline my workflow.

I can't find options for the following, so far;

1. Can I resize the midi editor window to specific dimensions and save that as a default?

Ok, another simple (sounding) FR.

I ask for the ability to create folders to contain multiple tracks.

Initial workflow suggestion:

The user creates an empty folder by clicking on a new "Add Folder" function (or a shortcut, woohoo), in the track menu, and names it. (Example, 1st-violins). A window opens that contains all the tracks in the project, with a tickbox alongside each listing. The user ticks the tracks he or she wants, and closes the window with an OK button. The tracks are now contained in the folder, so for our example, the folder contains;

When doing everything in Qtractor then exporting tracks works fine, even with
"track -> somebus -> aux send to master bus" and "track -> aux send to reverb bus -> aux send to master bus".

But if the reverb bus has an insert send to/from another plugin host with a reverb plugin then the reverb is missing. To make sure that the other plugin host has no problem with jack freewheeling I tried a 2nd Qtractor instance as the plugin host, too.

I use the real jack2.

Does this work as designed?

My question is related to the (red) timeline cursor.

When we start playback/recording, all is good, and when we stop P/R, the cursor stays where it is at the time of "stop".

Can we set a designated start time position, and start the P/R, and then have the cursor return to the designated start time position when the P/R is stopped?

Something like "When P/R stops, return cursor to last start position?"

This FR is to ask for the ability to show or hide track types in the mixer. I currently have a bucketload of midi tracks in the mixer output section that i don't really need to see once i have them configured.

I'm trying to add multiple plugins in the audio outputs, and keep having to do it from the busses popup window, and no visual cue overall. (See the attached pic)

Can some sort of toggle show/hide entry be added to the popup Inputs/Outputs window for each type?

p.s. Screenshot 2. Making progress... @bluebell, your move.

I know this isn't the place to report it, but I'm sharing it anyway simply to inform:

I've verified the following Qt bug thanks to AppImage 1.5.8.
The widgets in the status bar on the right (thanks to the specific command addPermanetWidget) are not added as children of the status bar; They appear to be applied as siblings, at the same level as the status bar.

Applying specific QSS formatting to them is impractical, as they only accept general styles (*, QWidget, QLabel).

Dear Community,
I have Problems to make a Connection between SuperCollider and QTractor.
I have the follwing Code in SuperCollider:

Code: Select all

s = Server.local;
s.addr = NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 57121);
s.boot;
MIDIClient.init;

I think there's an old bug hiding in the code which leads to single audio clips played too early (about one beat) when

This is just a quick idea but it may be very useful? Opinions are very welcome.

Here's the starting place...

Track is selected and mixer (track and bus) is focused as expected.
