|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some other useful ideas may still be be found on:
|
|
||||||
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_checklist_not_aiming_for_1.4
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Residual things from the past still undone as at end-2012:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Allow the user to create keyboard shortcuts to run an effect
|
|
||||||
using particular parameters.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Support custom cursors on Mac.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* A master gain control, if at all possible
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* When a selection is readjusted by grab&drag, the release of the
|
|
||||||
button at outside of the track panel could mean "undo".
|
|
||||||
Similar for all other operations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* dragging the selection edge out of display starts moving the
|
|
||||||
wave, but moving could start 100 or so pixels before the display
|
|
||||||
edge so that the coming wave can be seen
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* A bars/beats time ruler and snap-to bars/beats.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
(Karl, if you want to submit a patch, it's fine with me,
|
|
||||||
as long as it's complete and clean.)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* In the Timeshift-tool mode I propose making [ctrl+mb1] do
|
|
||||||
"Align track to cursor". Since they're only one clip per track,
|
|
||||||
simply clicking anywhere in to the track should perform that function.
|
|
||||||
Only the Selector tool can set the cursor, right?
|
|
||||||
[ Checking the mouse button operations through should be done.
|
|
||||||
Multitool should be considered as a base for the default mode.
|
|
||||||
Some operations would work always, like making a selection.
|
|
||||||
Then various tools would change function of some of the mouse
|
|
||||||
buttons. Without the multitool the Audacity is very annoying to
|
|
||||||
use, IMHO. JS]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* More built-in code for automated testing, not sure exactly what,
|
|
||||||
ideas for how to do this would be welcome.
|
|
||||||
[ It is more like continuous research job.]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Related to this, a self-image-capture class. This puts the gui through
|
|
||||||
its paces, capturing .pngs of toolbars, sliders, dialogs according to
|
|
||||||
an external script file. This makes updating the images in the
|
|
||||||
documentation much easier.
|
|
||||||
[ Third party screen capture program which accepts remote commands
|
|
||||||
via a named pipe, say. Audacity would then have a way to send one
|
|
||||||
command only and a way to send commands repeatedly (n times per
|
|
||||||
minute). ]
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Track label could be changed to look like what is in commercial
|
|
||||||
multitrack software. More compact, that is. JS.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
[I don't think we should necessarily copy the commercial software
|
|
||||||
in this regard. I hate most of their UIs because they force me
|
|
||||||
to memorize what tiny little symbols and colors mean. I like
|
|
||||||
my UIs to be "discoverable". DM]
|
|
||||||
[Agree with DM about not simply copying and discoverability.
|
|
||||||
Agree with JS that more compact ways to do Track Label need
|
|
||||||
investigation. Screen real estate is valuable. JKC]

|

------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Unclear - what are these?
|
|
||||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* In zoom mode, scrollwheel click acts as middle button click, but when
|
|
||||||
dragging with it, it behaves strangely (I couldn't figure out the logic)
|
|
||||||
Also rmb dragging behaviour is strange. As lmb dragging is intuitive, I
|
|
||||||
assumed that dragging small area with rmb would zoom out a lot,
|
|
||||||
and dragging bigger areas would zoom out less.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
More far-future ideas
|
|
||||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
[JKC] L&R <-> Average+Difference display. This way you can see
|
|
||||||
what a stereo track gets mixed down to as mono, and the stereo
|
|
||||||
content separately.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
[JKC] Split Track into band pass filtered components. Useful
|
|
||||||
even just to view a waveform without background mains hum.
|
|
||||||
[JS] Spectrogram would do that already?
|
|
||||||
[JKC] No. This is a split of the actual waveform into two
|
|
||||||
components which sum to the original.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
[JKC] Audio Diff: Ability to compare waveforms and have this
|
|
||||||
displayed graphically.
|
|
||||||
See http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Proposal_Audio_Diff .
|
|
||||||
[JS] Can a plug-in operate on two tracks and generate preview to
|
|
||||||
third track? Or replace the second track with the result.
|
|
||||||
It would be essential that the subtraction between two tracks
|
|
||||||
is made interactively so that user may time-shift the waveforms
|
|
||||||
and manually find the alignment between the tracks.
|
|
||||||
This may go far future if it requires changes to plug-in system.
|
|
||||||
[JKC] I have in mind something more like Unix diff that compares
|
|
||||||
and aligns waveforms. Useful when you have several takes of
|
|
||||||
the same track.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Extend "On-Demand" importing of audio with UI to
|
|
||||||
compressed audio formats
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Here's an older list of items. Things we've already done
|
|
||||||
have been removed, so these are all still valid ideas.
|
|
||||||
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Upload some icons for people to use with
|
|
||||||
KDE, GNOME, WindowMaker, AfterStep, BlackBox...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Do "preflight" check of disk space before editing
|
|
||||||
operations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Help the user find missing project _folder.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Smart Record features:
|
|
||||||
- Control latency
|
|
||||||
- Use as little CPU power as possible
|
|
||||||
- Detect dropped samples using many different methods
|
|
||||||
- Visually show buffer sizes
|
|
||||||
- Multi-channel record
|
|
||||||
- Show remaining disk space
|
|
||||||
- Includes higher-quality recording (because of extremely limited
|
|
||||||
GUI operations), timed recording, large VU meters, and more.
|
|
||||||
All of the recording options that are too complicated to do
|
|
||||||
with the normal record button (in the future: record directly to
|
|
||||||
MP3/Ogg, and add pre-roll and post-roll to volume-triggered
|
|
||||||
recording).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* For pre- and post-roll (amount to play before and after a selection),
|
|
||||||
see DG Malham email - Please add date so can check the archives for it.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
UI::
|
|
||||||
- Turn off autoscrolling if the user manually hits the scroll bar.
|
|
||||||
- Label the "Left" and "Right" channels!
|
|
||||||
- Small toolbar option
|
|
||||||
- Create our own progress dialog:
|
|
||||||
- Improved time estimate
|
|
||||||
- A "mini view" of the whole project, which shows what part
|
|
||||||
you're working on, etc. like a lot of other programs have
|
|
||||||
- Visual track dragging
|
|
||||||
- Split at labels
|
|
||||||
- Improve Save prompt dialogs: use "Save", "Don't Save", and
|
|
||||||
include the name of the file.
|
|
||||||
- When a user exports the entire project (in any format)
|
|
||||||
and the export doesn't require any mixing, mark the project
|
|
||||||
as not dirty (i.e. don't ask if they want to save it).
|
|
||||||
- Put close box in toolbar.
|
|
||||||
- Import... should be able to import Audacity projects
|
|
||||||
and Audacity project files
|
|
||||||
- Adapt text color - should be white by default if
|
|
||||||
the background color is very dark
|
|
||||||
- Invert selection (for now, until we allow discontiguous selections,
|
|
||||||
this should mean two options: select up to selection,
|
|
||||||
and select after selection)
|
|
||||||
- Legend (Ruler) for Pitch
|
|
||||||
- A way to turn a track into a loop. It would be cool if the
|
|
||||||
display showed the "real" waveform once, and then "ghosts" of
|
|
||||||
that waveform repeating forever... (We now have a loop-play
|
|
||||||
using shift-play which goes some way to answering this request).
|
|
||||||
- Scrubbing, where you hear the track speeded up as you drag
|
|
||||||
the play marker.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Import/Export::
|
|
||||||
- Import/Export markers in WAV files (like Goldwave does -
|
|
||||||
see email from Shane M. - Please add date so can check archives.)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Effects::
|
|
||||||
- Add real-time effects directly to tracks (see Ezequiel 5/10/2002)
|
|
||||||
- Freeverb 3.0 (and better interface), or native port of it or
|
|
||||||
otherwise improve reverb.
|
|
||||||
- Smart Mix (like Quick Mix but guarantees no clipping)
|
|
||||||
- Cross-fade (smooth between two tracks)
|
|
||||||
- Save VST plug-in parameters to a file, or at least
|
|
||||||
remember the last settings
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Future:
|
|
||||||
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Speed issues especially with longer projects: http://tinyurl.com/c6qcehm
|
|
||||||
- Edit markers on waveform (as distinct from cut and split lines)
|
|
||||||
- discontiguous selection
|
|
||||||
- visualization window: VU meters, equalizer, continuous waveform, oscilloscope
|
|
||||||
- Configurable mouse bindings and investigate horizontal-scrolling-
|
|
||||||
without-SHIFT-modifier support in wxWidgets 2.9
