graphical automation envelopes like Buze tracker?

Is there any chance we could get smooth graphical automation envelopes with subtick timing in patterns similar to what Buze tracker, Renoise, and other modern DAWs have? I believe Renoise has 256 lines of subtick resolution per tick for the graphic envelopes, wouldn't something like that mostly eliminate the need for inertia on automations?

Did you tried BTDSys Peer Scream?

Peer Scream comes close, but when you use any more than 16 subticks it becomes difficult to use, and it doesn't seem to work with pattern xp. =(

We probably need atleast 64 subticks resolution to have smooth automations without having to use a lot of inertia.

This thread is a repetition of viewtopic.php?f=2&t=222&p=1555 (which sadly contains a lot of off-topic stuff) but as you can see, noone has had the time/energy/knowledge to write up a good automation view for the song overview of Buzz.

Buzz is good for working with the micro level details (note delays, drum programming and what not), but when it comes to having overview over many minutes of stuff, e.g. for doing slowly evolving ambient, other DAWs are still at an advantage.
