Hi Daniel,
Thanks for some great feedback - I've been re-thinking hooking up to
the start button as I generally use the cue button to tap the beat,
then once its playing where I want I hit the start button - I only
have one sound card and no midi controller so I might use it
differently to other people. Anyway point is, I'm hitting the start
button way too many times to be querying the database - and its not
really a great time to be using resources running a search anyway.
I figure when a track is loaded - that's the best time to display the
"other tracks that go with this one" list.
I do like your idea about "current playing deck" - I'll look into that
and see how it feels. How does it decide which is the "current"?
I'm also thinking if this feature works and is useful it really ought
to be integrated into the "library", and the "crates" - might be nice
if it was a "show/hide" feature kind of like the way you can show/hide
the samplers. I'm getting ahead of myself, I'll try your suggestion
and go from there.
thanks
Keith
