Nothing else to do ... Maybe something is wrong in the file Gear.xml. It should be : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Gear> <Machine Name="Jeskola Pattern XP mod" LoadAtStartup="True"/> </Gear> Better not to edit the file gear_default.xml, it is replaced when you install a new version of buzz.

It was probably zzub.org
Doesn't exists anymore.
But still in Internet Archive

It's not very difficult to implement whatever you want about key navigation. But what seems difficult is to agree about something. So, if you want me to spend some time on this, it would be nice to work before that on a CLEAR proposal. And yes, I can add a parameter "Keep the good old way keys were ...

Added - Chord expert : select the chord to insert with a dialog. Chords are displayed depending on the distance from the current chord. The dialog is displayed when the button "Insert Chord" is pressed and no base note is set. Then, the available chords are shown in a dialog according to the last kn...

This chord expert feature is awesome! After 15 years of working with music, you'd think I'd have all the inversions memorized, but truthfully I do not. With interval support, I think this could be the next killer feature. Thanks, it the very beginning of what I would like to do with chords. As it's...

Added :
- Parameters "Disable PgUp/Down enhancement" and "Disable Home enhancement"

It should be, it's a bug.

you cannot just go and change them without providing options, you're messing with muscle memory here that people built up for 15+ years now this makes people (especially unz)

Yes Sir, I will provide options

ok here's the problem: the BAR dropdown value was EMPTY (not auto, not a number, but simply empty). Maybe this setting should have a default, or save its state. but more importantly: when you set it to Auto: it moves to the end (this is wrong) when you set it to 1: it moves 1 bar (this is ok, excep...

there seems to be a bug with page up / page down, sometimes they switch around, and page up moves down, page down moves up. also why does page up / down now move to the end and start of pattern, the old behaviour of moving only on bar was much better imho. Moving to start and end are what HOME and ...

Added : - Ctrl+DblClick on machine name opens the machine help file (if exists). - Chord expert : analyse the pattern to display the chords names. Notes on Chord expert : Chord expert analyses the notes of the pattern and display the name of the chords in the left margin if possible. The analyse use...

You can use the new GetMachineModuleHandle callback and then win32 GetModuleFileName to get the path of the DLL. Help files have extension .html, .htm or .txt. Thanks for the update. How do I use : virtual void *GetMachineModuleHandle(CMachine *pmac); // returns HMODULE of machine to retrieve the h...

In Pattern XP editor I'd like to be able to trigger the machine help display by double clicking (or by choosing it via left mouse button menu). Main reason would be to more directly/intuitively get info of effects command parameters values while editing patterns. I don't know how to do that. Oskari...

What about a feature to transpose within a key? That's something I've wanted for a while now. So that you could set the key to "C" for example, and when you enter an A minor cord, when you transpose it, everything would remain in key when transposed down to G and it would turn into a G major. Not s...

First, export 8 beats pattern with values on all rows. Notes on all rows from 0 to 31, for example. Try to import from file to new 4 beats pattern. Rows from 0 to 15 have been imported. Then, change length to 8 beats and you can see hidden bonus on 16 row. OK, it's fixed. Added : - Add "Import patt...

- Put focus back to editor when clicking on a button This has an impact on textbox from humanization, unfortunately. OK, corrected in next version. Export pattern works via open dialog box. It is easy to overwrite existing pattern without knowing it. I have done this while using this for the first ...
