Re: [xl7] version 2.0 when in hell??

"Basic functionality given the context" depends entirely upon the context 
of each user though.  For instance, when I first started messing with 
X-Mix, I too wanted the new part to come in at the pattern loop, but not 
because I wanted to add more parts, just because I thought it would 
provide more of a safety net when you're playing live so you don't 
accidentally start a new part too early or late (could be bad with a 4 
measure held pad if you miss the Note On for instance).  Having played 
with it some though, I see that it's actually pretty neat being able to 
drop stuff in when ever, you can transition to a new part by dropping it 
1/4 note early, makes a little fill so to speak.

Anyway, I can't even believe people are complaining already and they 
haven't even released the OS and no one's actually USED X-MIX yet.  We're 
SOOOO lucky that we even got this OS, you guys have no idea....

Besdes, I'm sure there's a lot of people going "X-mix, *shrug* so what?". 



agreed, but there is a difference, and a significant one at that, between 
features that would be nice and
are wished for, however esoteric, and ones that provide basic 
functionality given the context of their
use.
