Uh...there were probably other improvements, like if i have a long note which is only partial visible, DO NOT MOVE THE F*CKING DISPLAY WHEN I TOUCH IT!!!

Not sure what you mean by block overlapping

I can't edit too much more because it's going to reset votes every time I think. Might have to live without some of the really fine detailed requests.

Capability of having multiple blocks active at the same time, so you could combine them.

Gotcha. I'll be adding any more requests to google forms and will post that eventually when I've collected enough data

The simple answer is Make Ableton Jealous. Its time to start caring about the competition and doing things to match and/or beat it. For me this means advanced clip handling and better automation features. I can't stand the fact that Ableton gained such a huge following while Reason sat there and did almost nothing for so many years.

I was told I chose too many options, and there were many more options not listed!

I think you went the best route you could with the google poll. some of the options I wasn’t sure about, but it’s a good poll. before you did that, I was thinking it might be cool to do brackets. like have a poll with two comparable features and see which wins, and put that up against the winner of another poll of two other comparable features. would probably be fun, but doubtful it would be very accurate. 😆

If you are talking about the google forms poll, maybe it messed up because i added a comment box to it earlier? Not sure.

Ideas are welcome! Not sure on accuracy regardless. Sample size needs to be large, I'm trying to share it around so people outside of Reasontalk can partake as well

Another nuisance to fix is quantize setting and grid setting, put them for f&&ks sake next to each other, or add a little check box to link them. This is just as annoying as the "advanced algorithm for making the windows jump around randomly".

I don't get many of these. I voted clips to block but I have no idea what that is...

Select vertical slice 2 people? what?

To be clear: this is the feature where you can select a part of an audio clip with a rectangle and then make it into a slice with one keystroke, right? And nobody wants this?

What is edit slice threshold control? (pardon my ignorance)

How is this better than pressing R and then do the rectangle thing? I don't get the difference.

Slice threshold control refers (methinks) to, when you open an audio clip, it comes with a set number of slice markers, and what is wantes is the option to decrease these with some sort of slider, so you can chop up an audio loop in seconds with slices where you want them before either splitting them or bouncing to Rex.

My god, I was manually selecting slice points, or cutting at multiple points, then selecting and deleting etc. Shhh, don't tell anyone!

You've missed off my most wanted sequencer feature, whatever any other daw calls it - Aliased, Cloned, Linked or Mimic'd Clips.

Global selection between takes in a multitrack recording so that you don't have to go into each track to switch them individually. At the moment you can't compare takes with many tracks. Too much time goes by.
