Volume control

[Gubbledenut]

Works fine but perhaps instead of using the 0-127 nomination.can we have proportional 0-10 or 11 instead? Think it will be more user friendly...also will be more relevant to the slider settings on bs16i . I am okay Ng again with the RPi thing..and also will make the upcoming tsunami easier to set?

[Gubbledenut]

0 to 11 will work if you can increment from 0 silent in 12.7 steps to 11 =127?

[Gubbledenut]

ok forget the 0-11 thing, but perhaps give an idea in the load screen of the string notes and their volumes? ie G3/70 ???G2/30 Once we utilise the tsunami or a Rpi this will be very useful I think....

Late to this game... if MIDI supports 128 volumes, I want to be able to set them. So I kinda want to keep the 0-127 selection.

If a user mistakenly thinks it only goes up to 100 and treats it that way, it works fine.

For the second idea about displaying it somewhere, yes I would like to display the volume somewhere. The issue is space and making it too busy, but I agree displaying the volume somewhere outside the volume control menu is smart.

Yes, perhaps add this to the ergonomic design discussion..as mentioned in the big button "issue"

I'm moving this to 2.2:

• I'm going to leave the volume scale true to the number it's actually setting for people really seriously using it as a MIDI controller. I'm dead-set on "that's how MIDI is and folks just need to know that" :-)
• You do, however, raise a good point with the Trigger/Tsunami volume. Right now it doesn't honor volume at all. So that's something to address somehow if possible.
• Trigger/Tsunami understands actual gain values between -70 to +10 for tracks (-70 to +4 for master gain). I'll probably "translate" that on the volume screen and you'll still be scrolling through the MIDI numbers, but you'll see both adjust. Something like that.
• One issue is that I'll have trouble stopping the user from selecting gain values that cause a lot of nasty clipping in the audio. MIDI is all controllable later on so it's not an issue but the Trigger/Tsunami won't stop you. I think that's going to have to be up to the user, because it depends on what they're doing after my control (like using the onboard amp, or different wavs).
