But this thing caught my eye. I saw other sequencers from audition cubase nuendo sony vegas. and i immediately noticed that all audio clip boxes have integrated fade in and fade out (as a part of the box):
For example:
Not only that this option gives more flexibility to arange faster and deeper in my opinion, its a thing that it seems everyone else have spot on, except Fl Studio.
While in Fl studio you need to create that "faders" by clicking on automate volume option which creates a block beneath the Audioclip box...
The problem with that is that for every new part you import or edit it even further need a new automation, and if you handle alot of audioclips, the window becomes a mess,
while in other sequencers and audio editing platforms the box is integrated to be manipulated spot on and independently.
I talk about the mess of course if you use a playlist for layering drums, so that means for example: 4kicks+3snares+many fx= 20+ automations, and if you want to change existing audioclip's faders further in the project, but to avoid touching already set automation,
you need to automate more and more, so that thing grows exponentially depending on amount of samples...sometimes i can hardly handle big amounts of Audioclips and no coloring in the world can change that.
The idea around integrated fadein and fadeout option in every audioclip box would save alot of time and it justify even more the very existence of Audio clip manipulation in FL's upper editing playlist, and this option is a very known standard of course when we take a look at everyone else's sequencer's Audio/Video box.
If there is an alternative except fadein and fadout on channel settings of course, i would really appreciate to know one.
I would really appreciate some feedback on this idea
thanks for any reply on this.
