PatternXP bug
PatternXP bug
add/delete track does not work for all patterns, only for current one
Re: PatternXP bug
I assumed that was intentional...I actually prefer it that way, but it would be nice to have an option for both.
Re: PatternXP bug
even if that was intentional there is still a bug
try this:
add a machine e.g. Jeskola Noise Generator
go to PatternXP and add a track so now it has 2 tracks
create new pattern, now both patterns have 2 tracks
delete last track in this new pattern,
now the second track from first pattern doesn't work

Re: PatternXP bug
you're right, that definitely seems like a bug.
Re: PatternXP bug
as far as i know it was always this way
the alternative would suck too: maybe you do not want buzz to delete stuff from all your patterns...see ?

Re: PatternXP bug
Confirmed that deleting track 2 of pattern B disables track 2 of pattern A.
Seems undesirable.

and adding the track again re-enables it. its just how it works.
btw: if it would delete the track from all patterns, it would ALSO "DISABLE" TRACK 2 but in addition you'd loose your data....
Re: PatternXP bug
If i delete the last track of a pattern, the other patterns in the same machine are NOT affected. Personally I think we should leave it this way. I like it.
Re: PatternXP bug
the old build-in pattern editor don't work this way. number of tracks is the same for all patterns, and i like it this way
there is also a bug with the new add/delete track in parameter window.
try this:
add jeskola noise generator, save song, and load it again
now go to machine view, open parameter window and try right-click and add a track
buzz stops responding
anyone can confirm that?

Re: PatternXP bug
EDIT: I still think its OK the way it is, you loose no data, i can see how its not intuitive tough. Either way is OK for me, we'll see how wpf editor does it.bigyo wrote:the old build-in pattern editor don't work this way.
confirmed, it doesn't crash here, but it doesn't add the track either, looks like a bug. It works when you add the machine first time, but not after save/load.bigyo wrote: try this:

suppose you have a machine with two patterns:
pattern A with 2 tracks and pattern B with 10 tracks,
and you decide to add a track to pattern A.
now pattern A has 3 tracks and pattern B has 10 tracks - but only first 3 works.
Re: PatternXP bug
its just the way you think about it that has to change:
machine tracks and pattern tracks are independent.
machine has 3 tracks, of course only those 3 tracks will work in pattern view, regardless of how many it has. What counts is how many tracks the MACHINE has.

Re: PatternXP bug
yes, i know. but changing number of tracks of a pattern changes also number of tracks of a machine.UNZ wrote:machine tracks and pattern tracks are independent.
wouldn't be better if machine had as many tracks as the pattern that has most tracks?
Re: PatternXP bug
maybe...but it would be cumbersome to remove a track, you'd have to go to EACH pattern (imagine if you have 40 patterns..) and remove the tracks... actually i think that'd be even more confusing.bigyo wrote:wouldn't be better if machine had as many tracks as the pattern that has most tracks?
that the pattern editor changes the number of tracks on a machine is more of a byproduct of increasing the trackcount when necessary, to me...
either like it is now, or like classic builtin pattern editor was imho...
i just did a few more tests and i admit i found another confusing situation.
-Machine has 7 tracks
-Pattern 00 has 5 tracks
-Pattern 01 has 7 tracks
i did ADD TRACK on Pattern 00: machine now has 6 tracks

Re: PatternXP bug
great! and add/delete track in parameter window works properly now.
