QWS List is QWS harder to use than most midi applications?

2011-08-07 Thread Raymond Grote
Hi all, Here's an interesting question. When I learned QWS, I didn't have anyone to help me out with it, just the setting up the keyboard part. And I had to learn most of the tools and functions myself. While I am a decent musician, I don't consider myself better than everyone. But QWS just

Raymond, ( this is no offense to James) but IMO, its interface is quite awkward. For example, in most midi programs, u can bring up an event list editor, get a list of all events, edit them. W/QWS, the event list only goes by beat, u have to keep clicking to go to the next 1, etc. U also have to

Hi Raymond, In my opinion, QWS is certainly the best sequencer I have come across in my time. I needed absolutely no help in using it, and in actual fact my previous school over in Worcester have now started using QWS in their music department. It was actually a member of the computer staff,

Hey Raymond, I have to say that qws seemed quite complicated to me when i started working with it. Another thing, which is a big credit to Andre, as soon as i started listening to some of his tutorials, i found qws getting more and more interesting for me, and understood more of it.

Hi, QWS is a fantastic easy to use midi sequencer. Today I use Sonar for almost all my work, but QWS has all you need, for most midi stuff. Brian -Oprindelig meddelelse- From: Leonard de Ruijter Sent: Sunday, August 07, 2011 10:43 PM To: QWS list Subject: Re: QWS List is QWS harder

Yes, it does. Thanks very much. Actually, I've used the on screen keyboard for about a year now because my real keyboard is hooked up to the other computer, which takes me about 5 minutes to set up. And, when I have an idea, I only have about 10 seconds to record it before I forget it... It's

That's a good point. What I was trying to figure out is why QWS is so scary to a sighted person. It's nothing graphical, it just lays itself out in front of you and you have to do what you need with it. And it doesn't have as many functions but that's because it's only for midi, not even sheet

I haven't installed it yet, because I'm still waiting on some assistance to get one of my USB keyboards out of the storage space my studio is in at the moment, but I have read the manual end to end. One thing that struck me was its similarity to older DOS based sequencers, in that the approach

Hi, If you go on the qws sight, you'll find in the downloads section, a link that says audio downloads. Currently the only thing there is a little demonstration of what QWS can do. You can call it a tutorial but it's not really one, the manual is far better at guiding you slowly through
