Abes Please Read! *Really* simple way to improve the APC40

Post by alexaaz » Wed Jul 15, 2009 5:24 pm

Hi,

I just got my APC40. It is indeed awesome. However, I would like to suggest a *REALLY* easy feature to implement that would make it far easier to use.

When you hold down shift the clip launch buttons on the APC light up to illustrate where you can jump around the clip view. But why is this not reflected on screen by boxes (like the standard red box) appearing around the clips that you would jump to if you pressed the relevant clip button? Just make them a different colour to keep it simple.

Then simply by glancing at the screen it would be obvious exactly where you'll jump!

Thanks,

Alex

Also, how about a box to show you what 'Device Control' is currently controlling? As in, if you are in bank 1, it highlights the first 8 parameters, bank 2 highlights the second 8, etc..

Definitely a must have. Please Abletons, add this important feature.

Cheers
