Well fuck I am gonna point at that thing and say LIKE THIS!!!" If someone says "its not possible to have 4 wheels on a car, and somebody puts 4 wheels on a car.
BUILDING A SEQUENCER AUDULUS MAC
I DO NOT OWN BITWIG AND THEREFORE CANNOT BE AN EVANGELIST.īUT LIKEWISE I DONT OWN A MAC - I CAN STILL USE THEM AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE. It could make better more elegant and bolder choices. An example of what ableton could be doing. The reason I use their new Modular tool as an example is because it IS an example. It reminds me of early Ableton Live, from the days of "you dont need a manual". When watching all videos or using the software, there are gaps in implementation, but the progression and evident ideology is coherent. it shows both progression and forward thinking. As they talk about their DAW and demonstrate it. as they talk about that device and demonstrate it. Live is looking and acting OLD and OUTDATED But I can provide you with a nice long list of UI failings which have lain unrepaired for about a decade. I'm sure people will say "I love the way Live looks, never change it". There are so many abandoned UI projects in Live it's absurd. OK, now how about the Instrument rack, how does that route ? Same way? Nope. How about routing signals? Who loves drop down menus? Fancy routing your drums all through the same effect? Well press the marble to unhide the nested return and then set each drum to route through that effect chain. Both are abominable and unweildy in unique different ways. Shouldn't this share a visual metaphor with the chains? Nearly, not quite. What the hell is this? Where is the scaling? Look at the Sampler, the key view. Look at the chain selector : small, medium, large view. Live most people here I spend at least 2 hours a day staring at Live and it not only looks old but the interactions are clunky. But the interaction and signal flow seems very well thought out and delivers a complex interaction with a modular environment that doesn't require a massive manual. The visual aspect of course is very apealing, modern, shiny, stylish, etc. I don't own Bitwig, but looking at that new modular interface of theirs the design is really exceptional.
