I would like to comment on two things in your list: Am 19.04.2015 um 00:40 schrieb Harry van Haaren: > 1: Splash Screen
I would rephrase that to: show something as quickly as possible. If you need to load stuff, do it in the background, but show the main GUI window already (possibly with a loading progress meter in the status bar or similar?). This gives the user the opportunity to load a different preset or close the app/plugin again as quickly as possible. Speaking of: > 2: Presets Going a step further than the usual preset selection drop-down boxes: having a dedicated preset browser can be very nice. This can be integrated into the main gui view or replace it on a button click or open in new non-model window (not ideal IMHO). The u-he plugins (e.g. TyrellN6) give a good example of this. https://youtu.be/1FQ_Hpyh7rs?t=109 Having such a browser gives the opportunity to attach and show meta info on the presets, such as author, description, tags etc. and use them to organize and find presets easier. Also, please make the presets switchable via a keyboard shortcut, via the plugin host and via MIDI program changes (the latter esp. if it is a standalone program)! Chris
