Some suggestions for the next updates.

[ivosight]

Hi, working daily with Soundop, while migrating from Wavelab 9.5 (hell yeah! This software is more ergonomic and way better priced IMO!), I have taken note of some points, if you are interested to improve the workflow:

1. please add a "search by name" in the FX chain.
   
   
2. please evaluate the option of having a side-by-side-page-like plugin list in the FX chain instead of the scrolling-like one, with several plugins can become tedious waiting to scroll down 'till i.e. "Waves Vacal Rider" VST2. Or put just a fast scroll-bar on the right-hand side of the list.
   
   
3. please add a vertical-zoom handle or a scroll bar on the right-hand side of the wave window.
   
   
4. please make the "export selection" and "export" remembering the last chosen file format.
   
   
5. please add the feature that a double-click between two markers will make a fast-selection of the part.
   
   
6. please add the feature that it's possible to export all the parts beween the several markers as trimmed, separated, files. I.E. when recorded an entire vinyl-album side as a single long audio file, selecting with markers the starts and ends of each tracks, it will be possible to export each track in a separate file, automatically.
   

Maybe bugs?

1. The ASIO engine sample-frequency doesn't change automatically according with the opened audio file's native fequency (I get a popup warning!). Every time I have to do this in "settings" manually.
   But after the change, the progress bar doesn't proceed correctly along the wave form. Usually I have to close and reopen Soundop to make the bar working correctly. [my setup is based on a RME ADI2-Pro FS]
   
   
2. "export seletion" in the "right click" context menu shows a wrong suggested-shortcut CTRL + SHIFT-E, that doesn't work
   

Hope this can be useful for you  

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestions and bug report.

As to your suggestions:

• 1, 2: Do you have tried the Effects panel? I the panel, you can set a filter to choose effects and use drag-drop to add effects or double click on an effect to add to FX rack or apply.
  
• 3: You can zoom the waveform vertically by mouse-wheel on the amplitude meter. Scrolling vertically is not supported now because we are not sure whether it is useful.
  
•  4: we will fix it.
  
• 5: Soundop support range markers and select the time range when double-clicking on the marker on the time ruler or in the Markers panel. It may be ambiguous to create selection when double click between markers. Welcome to your further suggestions.
  
• 6: Will a command to export all audio between range markers enough?
  

For the bug reports:

• 1: Because there may be multiple audio files opened with different sample rates, it is impossible to change the ASIO device's sample rate according to the file sample rate. And we not sure what you refer to by the progress bar, and maybe you can send us some short videos to clarify the problem. Also, we need to know if the problem happens only with a specific ASIO device and sample rate to identify the problem. 
  
• 2: We have tested the shortcut, and it works when there is time selection, and it will do nothing if there is not time selection.
  

Please feel free to send us more suggestions and bug reports. We appreciate it much.

Best regards.
