peter I'm not sure I can add this without breaking the downward compatibility of the network protocol. Therefore I laid it off.
Ok, perhaps its time to have a totally new version of ST3 that is not held back by looking at backward compatibility but forward toward a super efficient workflow , because not having these basics working perfectly renders a great feature like looping useless from hosting viewpoint.
The idea is great but it is not complete without having perfect operation on stage.
Editing loops is almost perfect.
Playing the loops works perfectly for some.
Hosting loops is non existent, which wont work for bands that need to know where they are heading in a song.
I know there are many other issues like midi problems but having a working loop system is a lot more valuable to more users than midi changes that the audience wont even notice.
Having a perfectly timed echo is not a dealbreaker, but having the band play in sync is quite noticeable.
Luckily for me i do not use host as a solo performer but am just pointing things out so you can put more thought in the areas that count more.
Fantastic work Peter! Im looped out for now have a great day 😁
