This works great, because if you drag something over the edge of the browser, it temporarily folds away and comes back when you release the mouse button (or drag the mouse pointer back to the "floating window header").cocoazenith wrote: ↑20 May 2024The floating browser is a big concern for me too. I just cannot see myself dragging sample files onto sequencer tracks as quickly and intuitively as I do now from the left bar.
You can still work the same way: Double clicking a clip opens it in the editor, and hitting Escape closes the editor.cocoazenith wrote: ↑20 May 2024I also dislike the split sequencer and the tool window being moved on left of the piano roll. I disagree with all their arguments for implementing these changes. In fact i think its more intuitive to have the piano roll expand directly into the sequencer for keeping track on where you are and for quick editing. I always found the double-click (edit) plus [Esc] key (back to sequencer) combo to be unbeatable.
Besides this the split makes both sequencer and piano roll smaller. Working from a smaller laptop gets more difficult due to more screen clutter.
You can resize the editor so it takes up the entire height of the sequencer to make it behave almost exactly like the current version.
Although I prefer to have at least a slight split to keep track of where I am in the arrangement.
I'm on a 13" Macbook Pro, and I think it works great!cocoazenith wrote: ↑20 May 2024If RS are so much into getting new customers then why do they make their DAW more desktop centric rather than laptop friendly. IMHO someone on there objectively makes bad UX decisions...
