I’m urgently asking for a song setting optimization as there is a logic breach (even in your documentation). This has become very important with the lock track feature.
Please uncouple CHANGE SONG PART and STOP SONG. These are two completely different things, technically and particularly from a musical point of view.
- It’s very likely that you want to stop a song immediately and change a part only at the end of a loop, for example.
- There are many reasons for stopping a song, not only at the end of a part or song. So immediately stopping is required very often (I know that double tap could also do this. However, I’d prefer to stop by single tap, at the exact moment it’s needed).
- And by the way, the end of song is usually at the first note of a bar/chorus and not at the end of the previous one. Not so the end of a part.
In addition, please move all the settings for CHANGE SONG PART, STOP SONG and MUTE UNMUTE TRACK to the song settings where they belong to, according to your documentation.
What I suggest are three separate setting for
STOP SONG:
- Immediate
- EOM (*)
- End Of Loop
CHANGE SONG PART:
- Immediate (n/a if quantize = on, if you like. Or define your favorite behavior)
- EOM (*)
- End of Loop
MUTE / UNMUTE TRACK: as is
- Immediately
- EOM*
- End Of Loop
(*) In the Quantize = Off mode: Change or stop at EOM could be interpreted as the next end of any loop within this part (makes sense for many applications with a beat box track, which is usually a sort of a placeholder for a measure). Or is there a better option considering the planned auto quantize function?
I would also support this request from LaurentB in a dedicated topic
It’s about Aeros wide settings as a kind of preset which is then inherited to a new song and adaptable there.
