In no particular order, there are some features I wouldn't mind seeing in gigedit: Save individual instrument to its own gig file. - We can merge instruments in gig files, why not split them too? Automap feature. - Or more like "Select files from a pop-up file browser and assign the wav files to keys/dimensions in the order they're selected." Change dimension types after they're already created. - Could it be possible to rightclick and change a dimension type, like velocity dimensions to layer dimensions or modwheel/roundrobinkeyboard dimensions and vice versa without having to destroy the whole layer and rebuild the dimension from scratch? Andrew. |

Press and hold "Ctrl" key. 2. Select the instruments you want to delete with the mouse. 3. Right click with mouse and select "Remove". 4. Select "Save as ..." from main menu and save the file under the desired new file name. 5. Now click on the the "Samples" tab. 6. Right click on any sample, then select "Remove Unused Samples". 7. Select "Save" from the main menu. > Change dimension types after they're already created. > - Could it be possible to rightclick and change a dimension type, like > velocity dimensions to layer dimensions or modwheel/roundrobinkeyboard > dimensions and vice versa without having to destroy the whole layer and > rebuild the dimension from scratch? It actually works already like this! 1. Right click on region. 2. Select "Dimensions...". 3. Double click on the dimension type name of the respective dimension. 4. Select the new dimension type from the combo box and click "OK". BTW, changing the amount of dimension zones is maybe not that obvious. One might expect to be able to change that from that "Dimensions..." dialog as well. But it works differently, because it requires the additional info "where" exactly shall the new zone be added, or which existing ones exactly shall be removed. so to increase the amount of zones of a dimension: 1. Select a region. 2. Then right click on a specific dimension zone (at the bottom of the main window). 3. Select "Split Dimension Zone". Likewise to decrease the amount of dimension zones: 1. Select a region. 2. Then right click on a specific dimension zone. 3. Select "Delete Dimension Zone". All those gigedit features already exist for a while. So you might also have a look at those old release notes: http://doc.linuxsampler.org/Release_Notes/LinuxSampler_2_0_0/#gigedit_1_0_0 CU Christian |

Thanks alot for the informativ response, Christian. The release notes you also linked were a good resource too. Truthfully I had never even though of trying out the 'dimensions...' tab. :P At least I know that now. One other 'ease of use' thing, which in practice might bring up alot more issues, but would it be possible to be able to select (via either ctrl click or shift-click) all/a number of Regions and apply dimension changes to them all at once? Individually adding a velocity dimension to say, each 88 regions of a piano patch, would be a bit of a tedious thing. Andrew.

For most operations this already works like expected by you. No matter if you change some synthesis parameter, change the exact upper and lower limits of a dimension zone by dragging around the dimension zone boundaries with the mouse, and much more, those are already applied automatically to the selected regions and selected dimension regions. You can also change the dimension type of all regions simultaneously like described in those old release notes. Just click the "All regions" check box in the "Dimensions" dialog, then change the respective dimension type. > Individually adding a velocity dimension to say, each 88 regions of a piano > patch, would be a bit of a tedious thing. Same thing. Click on "All regions" of the "Dimensions" dialog. Then add the new dimension. It will automatically added to the regions which don't have that dimension yet. CU Christian |

Just click the "All regions" check box >in the "Dimensions" dialog, then change the respective dimension type. Think I have a bug here, then. I tried changing a dimension from 'velocity' to 'layer' with the 'all regions' tickbox on. It only changed the dimension for the currently selected region.
