Nice new knobs? Ahem. Anyway, I wonder how fast RG 0.9.9 appears in PlanetCCRMA. may be someone has an FC2 compiled RPM? BTW, I was demoing 0.9.8 to a musician yesteraday. He told me that Rosegarden has really improved since the last time he saw it (about a year ago), but he was very upset with the notation editor. I'm not sure whether all his remarks are viable for 0.9.9, but anyway, to sum it up: - a good notation editor need two modes of displaying recorded score - "as is" mode (when you see all mistakes like wrong durations and rests) and "prepress" mode (when you see it pseudoquantized so that you can just transpose some notes and so on and then print the score); - jogging in notation editor should be done according to current quantization variable, e.g. if quantize is 1/8, a note should be jogged by 1/8 at once and not always by 1/32 as on 0.9.8; - pop-up instruments menu (in notation editor, matrix editor) needs no text -- just the icons from the toolbar above and it would be nice to make it horizontal; - a quantize dialog should be an easy accessible combo-box; - just a legato in notation editor like in the matrix editor, because currently two approaches in editing score are mixed up -- the one for editing midi (the way it really sounds) and the one for editing notation (the way it looks on screen), which makes confusing the process of applying legato; - no function to correct note overlapping by decreasing the first note right till the beginning of the second note (for notation editor); - an easy way to extend the duration of a segment (may be drag a handle in a ruler above like in Logic Audio). May be we have missed some (or many) similar reports from William. So tell me, which of those I should post to bugs/rfe page.
