Feature Request: Voice Separation Tool during Scroll in Play

Have been using the voice separation tool to make coherent piano parts after being played in via midi. Ideally it would be great if Logic had some 'intelligent sensor' which automatically detected the "logic" of what left and right hand would do.
It gets really tedious dragging the Voice Separator tool through the piano score especially if it is a long part, so I had the idea to try and use View>Scroll in Play NOT in Page edit mode but with the score running in a straight band across the screen. I figured if you slow the tempo down a bit you might be able to hold the voice separation tool in one place on the screen and 'surf' or skateboard between the notes separating them just by slight adjustment of the mouse as the notes flow by.
Unfortunately this doesnt work because even though you are scrolling in play with the tool, as soon as you click the mouse to make it active, it 'undoes' the connection causes Logic's score to update with the sequencer.
Is there an outside chance of a way around this? ie some unknown linking of windows etc - I would really appreciate a few tips from anyone who has regularly made piano parts with the Voice Separation tool
MS

I don't know if this would help, but for piano parts I've given up using the voice separation tool, cool though it is. Instead, I start with the stock Piano score style (L7 terminology) and adjust the split point to get a reasonable result. Then I select all the notes in the bass clef and hit them with the "+" key (my k/command assignment used to increment event channel +1). This is a very fast operation. Then I alter the existing Piano style by setting treble to ch. 1 and bass to ch. 2. At this point you won't see a change in the score, but now you know that bass notes are "hard-assigned" to the bass clef.
Go through the part again, selecting notes that should be in the bass staff and hit them with +1 to move them down to the the proper staff.
If the part requires more than 2 independent voices (or more than L/R hand), I add additional polyphonic voices to that Piano style as needed (each set to unique MIDI channels) and go through the part in one more pass, selecting notes and assigning them to the appropriate MIDI channel. Using the key commands for "event channel + 1" and "event channel -1", assigned to the "+" and "-" keys makes quick work of this kind of thing.

  • Voice Separation Tool in Score Editor

    Hi- I'd very like to use this tool and have read the manual, and searched this forum for posts on the topic. However - everytime I try, I get a window saying:
    *The Voice Separation tool only works for polyphonic staff styles with MIDI channel assignments.*
    Since I've played around in the Staff Styles window, either choosing a piano style like 1-2+3, or choosing the piano and then inserting voices, I would have thought that this was a polyphonic staff style. In each case, in the assign column, I assigned Midi channels.
    So what did I do wrong ?
    As noted in another thread, when I click away the Staff Styles window, my assignments are not saved:- I couldn't find an OK or Save so I used the Cmd+S command.
    I look forward to your replies because I I've run out of ideas.
    Thanks - as always ! I'm really grateful for the help I've received in this forum. Kay.

    A polyphonic staff is one where multiple MIDI channels are available on a single staff. So here, "polyphonic" means that you have two or more independent instrument parts, each assigned to its own MIDI channel, but intended to be written on the same staff.
    The Piano 1+2/3 selection is just such a staff style. Channels 1 and 2 are available on the top staff, meaning that you can display two independent parts on that staff (on ch. 1 and 2, natch). The bottom staff will display notes on channel 3.
    The concept of a polyphonic staff style that provides for the display (in this case, Piano 1+2/3) of three independent lines written on two staves. This differs from a staff style that has three actual staves assigned to ch. 1, 2, and 3 respectively. That would not be a polyphonic staff style; it's just one that has three staves, each capable of displaying a single part. Note that a "single part" does not mean a monophonic line. You could display chords or single lines on any given MIDI channel.
    For example, you could use the Piano 1+2/3 to display the following:
    *top staff*: top part (channel 1) = piccolo, secondary part (ch. 2) = flute
    bottom staff: (channel 3) = cello, playing double-stops (chords)
    !http://www.score2picture.com/logicpix/dttah.jpg!
    Implicit in this example is the idea that the top part will display two independent monophonic lines, the bottom part displaying chords, but intended for one instrument. And per the defaults for that staff style, the piccolo part's stems are up, the flute's down.

  • Trouble using the Voice Separation Tool in the Score Editor.

    Hello,
    I am trying to change the notes in a piano score from the treble clef to the bass clef and vice versa.
    I've tried going under Score Editor>Layout>Staff Styles, choosing piano 1/3 and making sure the channels were set, but it doesn't seem to actually change anything. And when I try to use the Voice Separation Tool, I just get the message: "The Voice Separation tool only works for polyphonic staff styles with MIDI channel assignments."
    I am new to Logic and am sure it's something very basic that I'm missing.
    Many thanks for the help!

    Hi
    You must actually assign the Staff Style to the regions in the top left of the Score Inspector:

  • Feature Request: Unified DVE tool

    As I begin experimenting with Premiere Pro CC, I keep wishing there was more of a unifed DVE tool that emcompess tools that are currently available, but as seprate actions.
    In my mind a unified DVE tool would have most of the features currently under the motion tab: Position, Scale, Uniform Scale, Rotation, Anchor Point.  It would also have Opacity. 
    It would also have the main features of the Basic 3D effect but implemented as part of Rotation.  Calling them Swivel and Tilt is non standard.  Look at After Effects.
    It would have the elements of Corner PIn effect.
    It would have the ability to crop the image.
    It would have the ability to add either softness to the crop or a border or both.
    I think you see where I am going with this.
    It slows down your workflow to have to go hunting for these commonly used tools.
    Thanks for reading.
    Jef

    Hello Ann,
    Most of my questions relate to having spent more than an afternoon pushing buttons with all the effects.  It is important to understand that I come from a background of smoke and Avid DS - two very strong effects / editing applications.  Plus I am reasonably comfortable with After Effects.
    I am trying to determine if Premiere will satisfy my client's expectations for effects work within the editing application.  I realize that some of the things I look for can be more easily dealt with by pushing to After Effects.
    I just want to know what can and can not be done with the native tools in Premiere.

  • Feature Request:  Voice Control to check Favorites first

    When trying to dial using Voice Control, it would be really nice if the Voice Control application would try to match names in the favorites list before going to the full list of Contacts.
    I have my Office listed in my favorites at the #1 position. Every time I say "Dial Office", it mismatches to someone else in my contact list (despite changing pronunciation, inflection, etc). I even tried renaming the contact "The Office", and that didn't help.
    Favorites are the most likely numbers to be called, so I would think the Voice Control application should start it's matching search there.
    Just a thought.
    Cheers,
    pjordan

    Sorry for the confusion.
    Has anyone else noticed whether or not the Voice Control app gives preference to any particular contact list over others? I'm trying to figure out in what order it searches for matches. I have about 20 different sub-folders of contacts (carried over from outlook/exchange). I'm curious in what order it searches them.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.

  • [Feature Request] Option to disable auto-scrolling

    LG Nexus 4, Android 4.4.4, Vodafone, Skype 5.0.0.52727
    Please provide an option to get rid of that automatical scrolling to end of conversations when someone texts in it. Can't read older content on my Android phone when people keep writing.

    This makes Skype unusable with group chats!
    Also, if I scroll up, open an older link, when I get back to Skype it autoscrolls down to bottom of the conversation - that is also really bad, I typically want to continue reading from where I left.

  • Feature Request - Ability to prevent videos from auto playing in Browser

    This one isn't totally specific to the Classic, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
    Currently, when visiting sites such as CNN or CTV News in the BlackBerry Browser and you open an article with a video, it will be begin playing automatically. This can be annoying if you're in a library for example as the sound can be disturbing, but most importantly it's a waste of mobile data.
    I would like to see a feature added to the Browser's settings that would be able to prevent any videos from automatically playing to prevent such scenarios from occurring.

  • Feature Request: Ultrabeat: Load Sample auto copy file name to Drum Voice

    Feature Request: Ultrabeat: Load Sample auto copy file name to Drum Voice
    I wish that when I load a sample into a drum voice, that it would automatically copy the name of the sound file I'm importing to the drum voice minus the extension. If I were importing BD01.wav I'd like for the drum voice to display BD01. As it is, I have to import the file, then name or rename the drum voice to BD01. When importing large quntities, this becomes a giant pain, and I'm looking for anything programmatic that could save me a load of time. When I think of all the time I'm going to waste...and if you multiply that by all the number of users...that's a lot of wasted time.
    I wish of course that the program could suck up and autoload all of the sound files within a directory, names too, until the voices were full. Then I could just fine tune and kick out ones I don't want or want in different order. Not a big deal for users who are importing from all kinds of different sources, but say for impoting libraries like NI's Battery, it's a big deal.
    Maybe these could be choices in the load sample menu.

    Microsoft pulled the plug on DirectSound HAL in Vista due to lack of hardware support. The SAL exists for
    software compatibility, good intention but bad performance as there is no longer a direct path from
    DirectSound to audio drivers.
    People choose DirectSound for its Direct-ness
    but there is no reason to choose it now.
    DirectX SDK was integrated
    with WIndows SDK which ships with Visual Studio 2012 so you don't need additional downloads for
    WASAPI and XAudio 2.
    Just look up the documentation for headers/librarieslike every other Windows API you use. If you have a hard time to find the documentation then you need to go to search engines and find search engine tutorials. 
    There are plenty of samples for both WASAPI and XAudio 2, both in the Windows SDK and online. The DirectX team has some suggestions on which to use on their team blog.
    You can find experts for those APIs at the Windows Desktop Pro-Audio Application Development forum and the
    Audio/XACT forum on MSDN (link left out for you to practice your search skills). Again, it is fine to ask for hints but don't ask the whole
    solution. You are competing with others who just need a hint to finish work here. The time spent on working on your assignment would be better spent on helping on giving hints to others.

  • Feature Request - MultiFunction Printer Separation of Super Admin to Multiple Roles

    It is difficult to maintain a level of security and adopt best practices when the devices are dependent on a single Super Admin account to conduct all degrees of maintenance that typically doesn't require all the enabled features for the user logged in at that time.
    An example would be secretaries needing to print Department ID usage reports don't need the ability to change the management account ID or password, nor do they need access to enable/disable other features.
    I request Canon honor their claim below by accepting and implementing this feature request:
    "Canon recognizes
    that security
    is as important as
    print quality"
    sourced from:  http://www.usa.canon.com/app/isgrun/brochures/copier_security_whitepaper.pdf

    Thank you for your interest in security on Canon technology, Sn3akyP373. Canon does offer a feature which supports 3 different levels of administration called SSO-H. This feature is standard on many past and current models. SSO-H offers 3 different levels of administrators which can be set:  System Admin, Network Admin, and Device Admin. Each of these 3 levels of administrators has a specific set of admin privileges that grant appropriate access to each group. I've attached several pages from a product manual which describes the levels of security when using SSO-H. Please work with your Canon Authorized Dealer to configure your MFP from Default Authentication to SSO-H to meet your needs.

  • Feature Request: RGB Histograms / Tone Curves

    Hi team,
    It would be really helpful to be able to view the RGB Histograms separately in addition to a composite (rather than the "compact" mode we have now).
    It would also be really helpful to be able to adjust the Tone Curve applied to an individual RGB channel in Develop.
    Finally, it would be most helpful to be able to see the RGB values as well as or instead of the RGB percentages when moving the cursor over an image area.  This would be particularly helpful for fine-tuning skin tones.
    Thanks, and keep up the great work.
    We're delighted you're evolving Lightroom!
    Cheers,
    Matthew

    Your post seems to assume that Lightroom is a tool for travel/landscape photography, and other types of photography (e.g., portrait/fashion) should be supported by a "specialized add-on module". I have to disagree with you on that point. Considering many of the examples on the Lightroom marketing are fashion shoots, I would think that they considers portrait/fashion photographers to be an important part of their target audience. They are not a fringe group of specialists.
    I'm sure that portrait/fashion photographers would feel the same way about a Lightroom capability that primarily benefits the workflow of a travel/landscape photographer, i.e., when I do do some landscape work, I just edit in Photoshop. But you wouldn't agree to that, would you?
    Skin tone measurement can be an incredibly easy tool to implement. It can be something as simple as showing the CMY values alongside the RGB values during a mouseover. Keep in mind, I'm talking about CMY not CMYK, so there should be no need to worry about what ICC profile to use. RGB to CMY is a straightforward transformation. It's embarassingly simple.
    There are other ways Adobe can implement skin tone management that would be more powerful but a little more complicated. Those would be great too.
    Anyway, thanks for the link to the Adobe feature request page! I will use it.
    Regards,
    Mike

    Move people from TO to CC or BCC easily (If I may add, also ability to backspace to delete a contact without having to tap the X in blue box).

    Send SMS to new numbers (I think you can still do this from call log)
    Single key press to change profiles.
    Insert a picture into an e-mail. (I think he means into the body of email)
    Turning off links of contacts (I think poster did not have multiple accounts, actually BB10 goes ahead and adds all new contacts into all address books in all accounts without user permission.. Create a contact in Hotmail? Gets copied to Gmail.. and then linked, terrible implementation in my opinion)
    Presets for browser bookmarks, faster access to bookmarks. (My suggestion was to create a home screen, select 12 icons 3x4 or 16 icons 4x4 as home screen/start page)
    Being able to allow flash based on website/url/server.
    Ability to adjust different sounds/volumes for different BBM users/groups
    Better Voice Dial and Voice Commands (shorter and easier operation)
    Ability close one or all web pages/tabs, add "Close All" button.
    Call Recording
    Faster way to delete e-mails, such as file icons next to e-mails,  or Swipe to Delete! Swipe to File!?
    Customize email signatures with formatting.
    Phone to stay on screen (dial pad always available in panes)
    More Options for Clock.
    In Playbook we can have a single character password, why not on BB10? "too short" well it is my decision, isn't it?
    There is no way to go next/previous while reading an e-mail. Please add these functions.
    Add to the e-mail client, Next Unread / Previous Unread.
    E-mail or Hub should have more buttons at the bottom in landscape mode. Why keep only three (or four in e-mail view) buttons when you have the real estate. It would be extremely handy if you allowed users to edit which buttons should go at the bottom. Next Previous is really needed while reading an e-mail. For example I would love to add "File" button at the bottom as a shortcut instead of forward, I rarely forward, but I file all the time. Maybe allow users to have two row of keys, add next/previous/unread. Or it could be done with a gesture. How about swiping the account name (top blue bar while reading e-mail) left and right?
    When you create a new contact in BlackBerry, it gets synced to all accounts on the Hub. There is no way to limit the new contact to a specific account.
    Sometimes when you file an e-mail to a folder, it stops and waits few seconds with no message. Even when it files immediately, there is a confirmation message that takes time to appear and disappear, and the folder list does not disappear automatically.
    Messages filed automatically by server using server side filter rules are still showing up on Blackberry hub/inbox. In older BB versions the filtered messages did not show up in the list, filed messages still did.
    When you filter your e-mails using Filter / Unread function, new unread e-mails do not show up until you close the filter and re-open. It won't just keep refreshing your screen with unread e-mails. Can BB add a button to the hub "Unread Hub" so when hub shows 8 or 2, you can actually see unread items easily without having to through so many taps.
    Native BB QR scanner (Smart Tags) does not work with barcodes (it only scans with no way to use the information). There is Open In function but it doesn't work properly.
    We need to add more customs search providers, and be able to add custom search strings/wildcards. For example currently there is Google, Bing, Yahoo, Foursquare, etc..
    I hope BB introduces the ability include more standard & custom searches, IMDB, PriceGrabber, Ebay, Youtube, XYZ Forums, ABC Newspaper, 123 Database, Etc.. Most sites nowadays provide search string in their URL Search=?* etc...
    None of the Battery apps can access system settings to add a battery icon to the top. I wish battery percentage was there.
    There is no way to check carrier/mobile signal strength.
    Blackberry, please add the date and carrier / SSID info to the top. Sometimes we just want to glance at the top to see the date without having to swipe.
    Please bring back keyboard shortcuts. Since we can easily swipe up to bring the keyboard, just add keyboard shortcuts in e-mail, phone (true speed dialing, dialing by word?), and browser, etc.. if possible. I could always call 1800SOMETHING# now I have to look up the number or use dial pad.. Please bring it back.
    Camera zoom function needs to be fixed, also please include option of fixed focus by tapping on the screen to focus. The auto focus in video is focusing in and out to various objects all the time. Stabilization feature also causes tearing/ripples, I guess it is good if you are stationary. Or use Volume Keys to Zoom.
    Please allow more than 12 icons in an icon group/folder, I hated Apple for limiting apps per folder, please fix it.
    Auto ON/OFF feature is not there anymore. BB should consider Auto DND (DoNotDisturb) or Auto Silent/Airplane modes instead.
    Please find a way to stop the music app from automatically starting up every time it connects to bluetooth like car audio. This is very annoying.
    No Panaroma mode in Camera app, why not? It is very easy to incorporate. This could be a nice addition to next release, and easy.
    The text selection grips needs to be a little bigger, sometimes I cannot see where I am moving them, they work better in Playbook, nice big tabs.
    Call Functions, before answering a phone add sideways gesture functions, like swiping right will forward the call, swiping left will answer with a test message, etc..
    Or there should be a way to reject the call without sending it to voice mail, phones had this function a decade ago, I don't know what happened to it.
    We used to be able to see the "History" without having to save the contact. Now I don't see any way to "View History" of a certain phone number, it just keeps adding
    them as individual entries to the log. Now I can't see when was the last time they called me, how many times we spoke which day, etc... I loved this feature in BB5.
    Where is BB Traffic? Where is BB Weather, without having to run an active frame? It will eventually disappear if you run too many apps. I liked a little Icon that shows me what the temp is, instead of running a whole app.
    There is no Skype. This day and age with all other platforms having it, please either get skype (Microsoft) to cooperate, or open up BBM to other platforms. If necessary, pay Skype to develop the app, then charge BB users for the app. Most will gladly pay.
    Can we tap and hold on an active frame to pin it, or can we pin two favorite apps between Call and Search & Search and Camera buttons in the bottom bar? How about Close All running Active Frames app to quickly free up ram?
    I hope next generation devices have two speakers or speaker that is facing forward. When playing games or watching videos in landscape mode, I find my palm muting the speaker. I have to hold it gently with fingers to have a gap in between, something I don't want to do when I am on the subway or bus.
    Blackberry Maps should have a Zoom In/Zoom Out buttons, sometimes using it with one hand, it is impossible to zoom in and out. (Zoom in is OK but we can't zoom back out)

    - desktop software working with all older BB's allowing drag and drop type of transferring data, contacts etc. (BB link doesn't recognize my old Storm) 
    - auto power on/off

  • BUGS and FEATURES REQUESTED. Please add to it.

    I've been using the z10 for the past couple weeks and wanted to start a thread of comprehensive Bugs and Features Requested.
    I've labeled Bugs by letters (A,B,C...) and Features Requested by numbers (1, 2, 3...) so that others can add sequentially.
    BUGS
    (Not listed in any particular order)
    (A.) Contact App adds current date as birthday. When I edit my contact, the current date gets listed as the birthday in local contact.
    (B.) Duplicate telephone numbers listed. Telephone numbers show up twice in my Contacts (e.g.., if I have the contact's cell saved in (000) 123-4567 format and the person has the number listed in Facebook, I get a duplicate entry of +10001234567).
    (C.) Telephone numbers and emails are not actionable in Web pages. In webpages, I can't click on telephone number to call (e.g., I look up a phone number for a restaurant). I should be able to easily call or copy into the Phone App or E-mail App.
    (D.) Auto capitulation for words on the word substitution list is wrong. For example, when the word substitution contains more than one word. I have "ru" change to "are you" but if the first letter is capitalized (R) then both words become capitalized words (Are You). I used to have shortcuts like "mysig" to create email signatures with legal disclaimers but I can't do that now.
    (E.) Backspace delete doesn't work consistently. The Shift+Delete function seems only to work after moving the cursor. This feature is the Alt+Del action to delete words after the cursor.
    (F.) All Emoticons do not list. Emoticons do not all fit on the the two screens (lists) of emoticons. I.e., two columns are missing from view and can be seen when sliding (swiping) between the lists. Also, sometimes when I select an emoticon, it doesn't correspond with the picture of the one I intended. I believe this error is related. As a separate note, there should be a way to see the underlying symbols of the emoticon. (Often times, other people don't have BlackBerrys so I'd like to know what symbols would be sent--my prior 9800 would show the characters as i scrolled through them).
    (G.) BlackBerry keyboard doesn't always work in input fields. E.g., certain Web pages. (I found a work around; two finger swipe up from the bottom makes the keyboard appear)
    (H.) Sent messages stay unread. This seems to be an issue when an app sends an email (e.g., share article). The email with the sent indicator (checkmark) stays bold and I have listed 1 unread email. I can't mark as read/unread but if I delete the sent email, my unread message gets cleared.
    (I.) Contact already added but I get the option to add instead of view contact. For some contacts, I get the option to add to contacts in the action menu cascade when that person is already in my address book. This bug is for emails and text messages.
    (J.) Cannot call from text message. When I hold a text message and select call under the action menu cascade, the OS opens up the phone app but doesn't call.
    (K.) Composing messages by name. When composting messages, the input must be by first, middle and last name. It should be, instead, by string and include nickname. E.g., if the person's name is "Andrew B. Cameron" I must type the name in as such. I can't type in "Andrew Cameron" or "Andy Cameron."
    Features Requested and Suggestions for Improved User Experience
    (In no particular order)
    1)      Option to reply in different ways from the Call List. Be able to select a name in a call list and have options to call, text or email the person. The action menu allows calls to other numbers but I can't choose to text or email the contact instead. Sometimes, I missed a call and want to reply via text because I’m not able to talk. (Long hold on the Torch 9800 trackpad button brought up the action menu allowing me to call, text, view history, add to speed dial, e-mail, delete, etc.)
    2)      Option to reply in different ways from the Hub. Related to above, when selecting an item in the hub, have the option to contact the sender or caller with multiple different ways.
    3)      Only show number once in contacts application. Tap on the number to bring up the "action" cascade menu with options to call or text the number. Why is the same number listed twice (once to call and below again to text it)?
    4)      Timestamps for individual text messages. I can't tell exact time on individual text message if it comes in near the time of another text. All messages are in one "bubble."
    5)      Ability to select MMS or text for a message. Sometimes I write a text longer than 160 characters and I prefer it to be sent in one message (i.e., MMS mode) rather than being broken into one or more standard text messages. I had this ability with my 9800.
    6)      Send button should be moved for text messages!!! Why the heck is it right underneath the delete button?!? Or next to the period button? I often times have accidentally hit send when composing text. It's very annoying and embarrassing. (Also, what happened to the ability to hit enter for a return carriage to next line?)
    7)      Bigger magnifying glass. My finger is often over the area I need to place the cursor. I find it difficult and erratic to place the cursor.
    8)      Select all option. Add the option to select all text in action menu cascade.
    9)      E-mail recipients and message headers. Difficult to tell if you are one of many email recipients. Can we have a way to pull the email down to see the list of recipients rather than have to click to expand the header info? I know this request is a little picky, but that's how it was done in the previous BlackBerry OS which I preferred; it is easier and faster to pull the e-mail down and 'peek' to see which e-mail box received the message, message status, from and to fields. This change would be consistent with BB's flow/peek rather than click.
    10)   Browser navigation. Hold down back arrow to get a list of recently visited websites similar to a desktop browser.
    11)   Dark/Night mode. A night mode (maybe in the drop down menu) to change all the white and bright backgrounds to black or dark which would be helpful when reading/viewing things at night in bed/etc.
    12)   Number of contacts. Ability to see how many contacts I have.
    13)   What happened to groups or categories? I'd like to have back the ability to filter or see categories and also a way to contact everyone in a category. E.g., family or friends or coworkers, etc.
    14)   Shutter sound mute. I was at a wedding and wanted to take pictures during the ceremony but the shutter would was too loud.
    15)   East Asian Language Input. I bought my parents two Samsung Galaxy S3 phones over the weekend because they need Korean input (and the Kakao talk app). (BTW, S3 is a great phone but I prefer the Z10 after having the weekend to use the Android phones).
    16)   Ability to freely place icons on the homesreen. Currently, icons are forced top left-right-to-bottom. I prefer to space my icons out.
    17)   Add a contact to the homescreen. I'd like to place a shortcut (similar to a Webpage) to the homescreen for a contact which will open up the contact. Android allows this feature and so did my previous 9800.
    18)   Search Contacts by nickname. The contacts app doesn't allow me to search by, e.g., Andy, even if I have that as my contact's nickname. The previous OS allowed this type of search which was very helpful.
    Finally, as a note, I've been using the BlackBerry Z10 for the past 2 weeks and it's a great platform. I just bought two Samsung Galaxy S3 phones over the weekend for my parents so they could use the Korean language input and related features so I spent a lot of time with the Android platform, setting it up and teaching them how to use it. The S3 is a great phone too.
    I prefer, however, the way BlackBerry has done their OS 10 and the integrated management of messages.
    It's too bad that BB doesn't have Korean input and apps like Kakao Talk or I would have considered it for them.
    The BlackBerry 10 is a great platform and I look forward to the continual improvements that will only make the experience better.

    This is a great post.
    I couldn't have written it myself better.
    I'm also in dying need of Korean input as I can't communicate with my Korean friends.
    But I second every point.
    I hope the tech teams are reading this.

  • FEATURE REQUEST - looping record of selected region (ADR)

    I need Audition to have a better, more professional workflow for ADR and Foley. It can either be a looping "record" with preroll and postroll or a pop-up tool that accepts regions, in to out timecode, or markers to control what section of the video track it shows during recording. It would also be nice if the preroll had the standard 3 1k beeps plus a silent "4th beep" at picture start. Anyone else have other workflows or additional thoughts?

    I "second"' this request. I've been struggling to find a way to ADR some dialog for spots. You'd think no-one ever heard of this professional feature set. johnm has outlined the feature request nicely. Is there a plug-in available for this?
