Listen Button and Bigger Scroll Bar

Post by kjd01 » 21 Feb 2016 10:10

I know you told me it couldn't be done but I am putting it on the wishlist anyway.
I would love to see the Listen button placed on the normal default fader view in Cubase.
I would also like to see an overlay on the bottom scroll bar making it bigger and better suited to using your finger.

OK!

This could be done at the expense of some other buttons. Or we could introduce some "alternate" types of DTouch channel strip.
What do you think?

OK, I am sorry, this cannot be done!

As per the bottom scroll, I have my desktop slightly extended in a way that when in the dtouch overlay, I can just rest my finger on the bottom touch frame and hit that thin scroll bar everytime acurately without issue. Only downside is I have to use the mouse to access the windows task bar at the bottom.
Most of time for scroll I'm using the top meter section I have visable in cubase which is plenty wide enough for your finger.

Yes, this is the most safe tool to scroll.

How about an option to swap solo for the listen button? or a control listen mode on/ solo mode on?

I like the idea of using a special key and then touch the Solo or Mute function. How about if you pressed the Fine Button or one of the other buttons then the graphics for the buttons could change to Listen and one of the other functions I can't think of right now. Then when you release the special button it goes back to Solo and Mute.

Yes, why not!
Keyboard key modifiers which temporarily switch the regular channel strip to an "alternate" version? What do you think?

I think for my workflow a temporarily switch would be a little fiddly and not as good as a switchable modifier that swaps solo to Listen and only changes back on pressing the key modifiers a 2nd time.

In Cubase the Solo buttons is now useless for me because anyone listening to the headphone/cue mix will also hear a channel being Soloed which isn't what you would want to do then recording. In Cubase the Listen buttons works just like you would expect a Solo on a real mixing desk, it will not interrupt the mix being sent to the cue mix.
