ctrl+f: Clone the patterns that the numbers in the clipboard refer to, then paste the numbers of the new clones into the new frames.ġc) ctrl+a's behaviour should be similar to its behaviour on the frame editor - one ctrl+a, select the whole frame. ctrl+v: Create as many new frames as there are frames in your clipboard, then paste the cell numbers into them. ctrl+m: Paste the cell numbers, top left corner starting at your selection, overriding the numbers already present in the frames. I can see more than one way to paste, so I'm just going to list them all for discussion: ctrl+x should copy the cell numbers to the clipboard and delete the frames they came from. And now that we have a selection.ġb) ctrl+c should copy the cell numbers to the clipboard. Ctrl+click would add/remove frames to your selection as you use it on them. Shift click would be like in windows explorer - shift click twice and you select all frames between your selection. Clicking and dragging could be used to select all the channels in all the frames it overlaps (and if you drag over the frame number, it automatically captures the whole frame). This is fine.ġa) Click and drag, shift click, ctrl click. Now, let's examine some input that the frame editor does NOT capture when it has focus:ġz) First off, what it DOES capture: Double click, which lets you edit the number in a cell. ![]() This requires two mouse seeks, two right clicks and two left clicks per frame I am duplicating. Now I grumble as I have to select frame 1 - right click - copy, select frame 4 - right click, paste, right click and move up/down if I put it in the wrong spot. Here is a common operation I want to do: I have a 4 frame loop and I decide 'actually, I want this part of the song to go twice as long'. ![]() Mostly because paste and mix is THE reverb creating operator and should be transparent to everyone.Ġa) Maybe also make 'rows shifted by when you scroll the mouse' visible next to row highlight and 2nd highlight? Since typically if you make your song 3/6/9 rows per beat you'll want the scroll wheel to move by a factor of 3 too.ġ) The frame editor in the top left has very poor usability. So, I would like to suggest a number of workflow changes that would make common but tedious options much simpler.Ġ) Trivial: Paste and overwrite and Paste and mix should display their key shortcuts in the edit dropdown menu. ![]() note: from 0.1.I have been using Famitracker for One Hour Compos lately - and when all you have is an hour, any time spent doing automateable busy work is time lost, and in such a competition format it really stings. (Setting volume to 0 can be used to delete a string of notes more easily) To delete a note, press backspace or set the volume to 0 New notes are given the selected instrument/effect values Shift-click instrument / effect / volume to set for all notes To enter a note, use q2w3er5t6y7ui zsxdcvgbhnjm (piano-like layout) a million.Įach note shows: frequency octave instrument volume effect The main difference is you're working with 8 preset waveforms instead of loadable samples, and you have 8 effects rather than like. ![]() If you look up tutorials on youtube for other common trackers eg "milkytracker", you should get a lot of relevant info ( this video looks good). Basically it's just a standard "tracker style interface".
