The old "feature request" topic is getting long, so I added a poll to see what features you guys want implemented the most
http://ifoundasound.com/?p=722
We'll of course need to put our foot down for new stuff when we get closer to version 1.0 but as for now, keep'em coming.

Hi! I just have some questions about the feature requests, before I cast my vote(s):
The song action, it seems like this could bring down the performance if not implemented correctly? I like in LP that you have control over exactly what happens. However, managing songs and "setlists" is a bit awkward. I had a request about "functions" to trigger a cue list inside another que list, and then return to the same point in the first one. Would this be an example of a song action?
Recall plugin parameters - Seems like a great feature! However, will this be limited to plugin parameters, or could we also send MIDI data in an action (program changes etc)?
Is there a post discussing how the controller maps could be changed?
Multiple MIDI devices per plugin, would this be like if I have two plugins which sends MIDI data I could send these to ONE other plugin (thus merging the MIDI data) + sending it MIDI from a controller device?
I do not understand the "update to current settings" feature.
Link to the topic discussing the "wire routing"?
What's the suggested improved work on presets? |

Well.. I guess this was not all that clear so I'll try to answer:
This is all up for discussion, they are all good ideas, but the exact way to implement them are up for discussion.
This was more a way of figuring out where improvements are needed the most, so we can plan ahead.
When the first release of LP was made it was suppose to be WAY simpler then it is today.
Then we started adding things here and there and now we need to digest all these small changes and do some planning. otherwise LP will end up with too many loose threads and an inconsistent and non-intuitive interface.

Would this be an example of a song action?
We are not talking about removing the "atomic" actions that we have now. It as you say more about finding a way to simplify the work flow so that you could recall the entire state of a song with out 20 cue actions. Exactly the best way to do this...well
There could be a new snapshot-type that just puts all the info in one big action, and you could then filter out what you don't want to recall.
Or we could use the cue folders idea.
I don't really see that one rules out the other, can't we have both?
quote:
Recall plugin parameters - Seems like a great feature! However, will this be limited to plugin parameters, or could we also send MIDI data in an action (program changes etc)?
Would it not me more logical that this would be a part of the MIDI send action, that you could choose plugins there in addition to Hardware outputs.
quote:
Is there a post discussing how the controller maps could be changed?
No, just some emails and your suggestion in the feature request thread.
So I would encourage you all to give feedback on what works and what you need.
quote:

No that's more like a plugin can receive midi from Midi device A and Midi device C and Plugin X but not from Midi device B.
Now you only have the option of one midi device/plugin or all devices.
quote:
I do not understand the "update to current settings" feature.
You got that with snapshots now, if you run a cue with 5 snapshots, change the parameters on the plugins, you click update in the cue list to overwrite all the related snapshots with the current settings.

Initially I was under the impression that fxb presets where on their way out. now the only handeling of these factory presets are the ones in the Presets panel at the bottom of each plugin's side bar.
- so should these be integrated better? in the cue lists, should they have a place in the new library window. etc. Personally I never use them, but some people do so..

Thanks for the explanations!
Regarding song action: One does not exclude the other, I was just curious :)
Sending MIDI to plugins would indeed be better with the MIDI send action. |

Maybe a POLL on what people are using Live Professor for.
Live Vst Instruments Use
Live Hardware Controller Ect Ect
Maybe you need more then 1 program. A basic LiveProfessor and a few Add On for each application
Thanks Nokilai |

I'll try not to sound dumb about this. But as a long time analog musician, I'm just now getting into the midi. Not for instrumentation but for control. Although I personally think control should have developed its own language and left the midi to the music. Anyway... As a performer I need to lay out a set.(The show as a whole). And inside that show I need songs. And inside those songs I need breaks. Where I might change from rhythm to lead on a guitar. So basically I need a the set to be a library file, the songs to be initiate files and I'll control the breaks with my midi pedal since the midi mapping will be part of the initiate file.
The reason being... I have already seen in too many programs.. you cannot change your complete instrument setup in mid performance without some major "performance" issues. So the setup needs to be changed only between songs with everything you need at that moment. Then you can control subtle parameter changes with the midi control such as turning an effect on and off or adjusting the wet/dry mix or volume or whatever.
I know it sounds like I'm preaching to the choir but I hear everyone talking about making LP do TOO MUCH at one time. I agree with nikolai... keep the performance part simple. For everything else there is always scripts and macros. Sorry for the rambling but I NEED for this program to be finished.
Loyal to the program,
Terry |

Is is possible to make a ASIO Dropout indicator just like the overload indicator (which also indicates dropouts) in waves multirack (and also samplitude)?
Would really help me to get as low as possible in buffersize so that I know when it's dropping out..
Thanks! |

Hi
That might be a good idea, but i'm not sure how it should be implemented to work reliably. could just measure the time it takes to process all plugins and compare that to the length of the buffer.. maybe
Need to think about it. |

thanks author for good product. i found it best for my low cost mini size performance station. but i need few features to be absolutely happy:
1. i need automatic audio reset on wakeup from hibernation, sleep mode, horm... so i need either option for triggering it automatically or some key shortcut to invoke this function by myself.
2. i need some additional feature to midi controller layer section. meybe some step(delta) correction field next to min-max fields would be very usefull for me.
maybe it would be helpful for somebody else. |

May I still ask for the threshold-trigger-function?
This would be very useful for guitarrists. We often user midi footcontrollers with expression pedals but don't have switches unterneath the pedal so activation of effects has to be done by the software depending on the current position.
Example: you configure the wah pedal (coyote wah or similar) to listen to a CC but switched it on or off without an additional controller. Some hardware units have a so called "on range" and "off range". You can set i.e. the "on range to 0..125" and have the effect automatically disables when the pedal is pushed fully forward.
Regards
Andy

This is completed and it will be available in beta 2.0 that is just around the corner.
it has taken some time cause I'm packing a lot of changes in to the 2.0 release to avoid releasing small upgrades forever, (really want to get to version 1.0 now) |

What are you trying to do, and how would you like to do it?
i have a little mini-itx system with Windows Embedded OS for realtime performance. i used Hermann Seib VSTHost but i noticed that lp gives me better latency-dropouts result with my system, dont know why. my system starts up with HORM (like hibernate in XP). as i can see some audio drivers need to be restarted after dumping all the memory. did you try to return lp back from sleep mode with different drivers?... i use my own midi routing programm and no monitor so i need a possibility to activate the audio reset function. or it can be done automaticaly by lp.
as for controllers range. may be i do something wrong. for example i use NI B4 vsti plugin. it has vst parameter - list of combos (about 10 elements). i assign an external controller knob to select the combo. it's very unhandy to choose proper element from such a small range(0-9). so i need to use all the range of that knob (0-127). thats why i asked for some Step parameter. in Hermann Seib VSTHost, for example, i can use BIT-parameter. 7 bits - 128 positions of knob range, 6 bit - 64, 6 - 32 etc... it rather programmer's concept than musician's))) but it worked for me. |

Ok, so a reset audio button that can be controlled via midi? If I can find a windows api call to notify lp that it goes out of hibernation I could hook that up as well, like an option "Reset audio on wakeup"??

I belive this is fixed in beta 2, with the new midi controller system.
You have sliders that control this. |

another few things that would be helpful for me.
i need something like global snapshot, not individual for each plugin. i want to activate such snapshots via midi insted of opening another lp project file because it takes too much time to unload and reload new set of plugins imho. so i want to store/restore midi channel, may be midi input, on-off and state of each plugin. with this functionality i need a possibility to change plugin's midi channel via midi too. |

How about a Project Merge option? The ability to add a 2nd project to an already open project...
possibly having a request window for things like configuring MIDI channel, plugin state (active/bypassed) etc.
I'm sure though, if you were at the level of needing/wanting to merge project, a raw "merge" of a 2nd project with the first would be something that a user could figure out how to adjust various parameters anyways. |

It seem a few of us are using Projects to store our plugins.
How about a cue list to drag and drop our project into.
I build a group of plugin for each song and save it as a Project.
The Global snapshot Would be nice with a drag n drop future.
Thanks |

I was sitting here contemplating all the latest additions to LP. Global Snapshot to be precise. It occurred to me that I might not be the only one who has used LP in a pre-Global Snapshot state. Maybe through lack of achievement on the LP feature learning curve, I missed a feature or two or didn't quite understand the benefits of one thing over another... that could benefit from a simple method to amalgamate projects. It seems I have some great projects tha work, but as time goes on the list could get difficult to load in a live situation. I keep my projects stored in folders for live use, but it seems that with G.S. as an option, it's a bit of a backwards method I'm sure. I just can't seem to pour myself into the idea that I'll have to re-create these patches, routings, tweaks, etc.
Maybe something like an Option under Project that would allow a user to "Import Project As..." into an existing project. The Import As options could be "Global Snapshot" or "Cue List entry", whatever works. Or Both.
Import an existing project as Global Snapshot, the import actions would be to BYPASS all existing modules, create a Snapshot point and/or cue point, it might be easier for people like me with many different projects to collect them into one super project to start making full use of Global Snapshot. Of course the importing would also ADD the missing plugins (multiple instances if required) to the existing Workspace.
Not sure if I expressed myself quite as clear as I originally intended.
Just a thought.

Hi
Yes this is the problem with relasing a program while it is beeing designed. it has its pros and cons.
quote:
Maybe something like an Option under Project that would allow a user to "Import Project As..." into an existing project. The Import As options could be "Global Snapshot" or "Cue List entry", whatever works. Or Both.
This would probably solve it for the users "stuck in the middle".
But what should it import? would the settings last stored in the project do? (They way it comes up when loaded)
Otherwise it becomes pretty complex. If you need to load the snapshots from each plugin, load cue lists, settings etc.
I imagine the best way would be to import a project to a global snapshot that would load the used plugins, set the plugin settings, MIDI, Audio patch, and Workspace. (?)

Great Program
A cue list that you can drag and drop saved project into. We can wait the 3-5 seconds it takes to load.
I play bass guitar and keys. I use foot midi bass pedals and 3 keyboards. I build a project that sometime has 6-8 VST in it and change each project for each song . The global snapshot is just to hard to build a set list with.I use a computer on stage and change PROJECT between each song.
All the setting are saved in the project .. so just a drag n drop would be great
Thank

Yea, we could do that.. as long as it is not the only way to do it.
Just out of curiosity; what exactly makes the Global Snapshots hard to use? |

Myself i am have multy keyboards and foot midi pedals using midi channel for each vst. I build a song using upto 8 vst and save it as a project.Between songs i will load the next project.I think BalancedLineOut is doing the same thing.For me to build 1 song project take 20-45 mins.I have tried the global snapshot and can not seem to get it to work in an easy and quick way.Maybe i am missing something.Maybe a video would help
Also i use a Roland PK5 pedal,sometime the same channel as a keyboard sometime i need to switch channels..is there a way to have more then 1 channel input into a vst. Right now you can use all or only 1-16.
Thanks

Been away for a while and missed the followup to my original post re import project. The intent on my suggestion was to import a project file "as it was last used". In my case, when I open a project during a performance it's ready to go. I absolutely avoid, during performances adjusting anything I can't control from the hardware.
I don't play keys on every song, so usually there is plenty of time to open a project, let everything load up and be ready. The project files method works fine for that reason, But, I see in the future that my project method may become cumbersome. |

Thank you so much for such a great product.
Especially a like LP’s “internal logic” compared to other VST hosts.
I have now started to port my live setup from Cantabile to LP and I have come across a few functions I would like to see.
I hope the ideas below are read in the same positive spirit as usual.
• Sub-global snapshots.
Reason:
With parallel independent setups, such as guitar, Keyboard, Effects/Mixer and song, the global snapshot will change too much, i.e. everything in the rack.
Suggestion:
Extend the Global snapshots to allow working on selected multiple Plugins in the rack.
Each Plugin should have its own selection of filters as the existing options.
The "Global snapshot" Cue should be extended accordingly.
This will allow for a truly band live system - easily set up.
Comment:
If this is implemented it is a true differentiator compared to other VST Hosts I have seen.
I know the Global Cue is probably created to accomplish this request but it is quite complex to use and maintain.
• Make it possible to select a Cue to execute at project load
Reason:
This will allow to setup a project to always start in a well defined state and workspace.
Comment:
There has been a requirement earlier that each Cue had a property to fire at project load.
However this proposal is probably much easier to implement
• Allow a Cue to send Midi messages to Plugins, maybe in the shape of a “virtual control board”
Reason:
Sometimes there is a need to change the state of a Plugin from the project itself.
Example:
I use the Plugin, Miksebord, to mix and add effects to all other Plugin in a project.
In a given song I will like to switch on “Effect Send” for a certain channel and the only way to do this, as far as I know, is either via a physical controller or as a specific snapshot.
It should also be possible to do such changes directly from a Cue - as a kind of "Midi send"

I would just love to be able to run more than one instance of LP as a VST plugin. My interest in LP is as a live performance tool but I use more than one soundsource and the interface/workflow gets confusing quick when with multiple VST/routing chains, plus I could incorporate LP more easily with more advanced DAW apps.
If this is way out of the question, then at at least some sort of "tracks" system would be usefull. Or even just a tabbed view of different layouts for each soundsource. (and of course unique cue actions)
Also just to throw it out there, a vst shell of sorts that could load a VST and parameters from disk via cue/snapshot |

This would probably be an easy one to do. The title of the project shows in the top right corner of LP. Perhaps an option to change the colour to something brighter like yellow. Alternatively have the title in larger print beside the global snapshot button.
I'm still pushing for a project merge feature (hint, hint) ;) |

I have a bunch of suggestions/feature requests. But I've been struggling to prioritize them. I understand how overwhelming it can be for a developer!
Ok, let me shortlist the ones that are critical from a professional live performers point of view. I.e, these are the features, if missing, a pro would not want to shell down money for the product:
- Midi device robustness: if I switch off/unplug my Midi device, when I switch it back on, ideally it should automatically be 'rescanned'. At least, there should be a button with a keyboard shortcut, which will rescan midi devices. Currently, unplugging/replugging causes crazy behaviour in LP!
- Audio robustness: If the laptop wakes after sleep/hibernation, or the interface is unplugged/restarted, it should be auto-detected (ideally). Again, if not possible, there should be a button with keyboard shortcut that rescans audio devices and gets everything up and running.
- Midi panic: send all notes off+CC64 off on all channels to all plugins. Again, ideally with keyboard shortcut.
- Midi input indicator LEDs: This is critical for quick diagnostics. Ideally, one for each plugin.
- Global snapshot name being displayed in BIG BOLD FONTS!
 Or ideally, the font size and display should be user-selectable
As I said, I have listed here only the most critical features. As a professional, my biggest worry is robustness. Murphy's law prevails on stage - if something can go wrong, it will. Devices/interfaces get disconnected, channels get changed when sustain pedal is held. I expect any professional-level software to have safeguards built-in for such situations. Currently, LP needs to be restarted, which is totally unacceptable ! In fact, when I tried unplugging/replugging my USB-midi device, I got error popups about missing drivers every time I tried to close LP. I had to shut down from the task manager!
The first four requests address the issue of robustness and stability. The fifth is no less important. On stage, I need to have the information about the current state of my system displayed prominently; a single glance at the screen should convey the information that I'm looking for, so that my attention on the music is not compromised. As has been requested, it would be great if next and previous snapshots are displayed, too.
Nikolai, over years of experience on the stage, I have come to value stability and robustness over cooler or fancier features. I'm sure I speak for the other stage musicians as well...! Looking forward to a more robust/stable LP.

Small MIDI REQUEST !
In the cue with the midi patch selection
It would be nice to have a Bank selection next to the patch
This would make it endless for users like myself to be able to setup a patch for every song in a sequencer beyond the 128 patch limitation . This is standard with most midi sequencers.
Thank You For all your Hard Work on this project.
As a former Forte user, this Beta product is far superior ! and I know the Final Retail version will be will be a work of digital art !

I have another suggestion:
I think that would be very usefull a "Midi Devices Rescaner", similar to the pluging rescan button in the plugin manager. Sometimes i forget to turn on my midi keyboard, so i have to close and open the LP again. |

It's me again, i forget something!
It would be very useful to put a VSTi in more than one channel at the same time, in this way you could have the Vsti in one channel to use alone and in another channel to use mixed up with another VSTi.
PD: Sorry for my english! :/ |

Hi holding down the ctrl-key When selecting output lets you send the device to multiple outputs. Same goes for inputs by the way |

Hello,
A small (hopefully) and somehow weird request for a Cue extension:
I would like a Cue action to be able to execute an external application.
My reason is that some VSTs, in my case PodFarm 2.5, can only be brought to the right state by clicking physically in its window.
This is of course a really stupid design by the vendor and the reason is probably that they never understood how their own product could be used.
Of course LP should not do click simulations but setting up an LP project to start in a given state this new Cue actions would allow to execute an external application to simulate the clicking.
Other VST hosts do have this option, such as Cantabile.
Thanks

I also would love to see font size settings. For live use, even in Live mode, I dont need to see the next 20 cues, only the next 2-3 and would rather have them large.
And, also, I frequently have to restart LP if I dont have everything on and connected in the correct order. Would love something that scans my midi devices so I dont get all ready to go, fire a cue and get thrown the error, only to have to restart. |

Hi, I have been using LP live with my band for about a year and a half, it has made my life a lot easier (just a laptop, an M-Audio Oxigen 61 controller and a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 will do the gigs!).
My request is for an option in the Midi filter section when you select "edit", and then select "message number", and "all" to include a section of "exceptions" to this "all" (maybe you want to exclude "all" of the program changes except programs 10 and 12 for example, or you could have a similar issue with controllers)
Thanks! |
