Fine mouse control

Post by Synthbuilder » Thu Jan 19, 2006 5:37 pm

On various other apps I have, by pressing CNTRL and moving the mouse, I get fine control over whatever I'm editing.

And I thought Live did this too, but it doesn't seem to now. Is it me, or is there no way to fine tune mouse edits of a parameter?

I've noticed it doesn't do that as well. I always forget to mention it though.

You can type values in manually in most places though -- for those times when you really need that value in between the coarse values produced by your mouse.

I don't think it's a bug though. (If it is it's been there for quite some time.)

One thing to get fine tuning on knobs is shift plus up or down arrows, keyboard thoug. It goes .1 steps.

Thanks for the replies chaps. I could have sworn that it did do it in an earlier version, but its probably me getting confused. I've been playing with Reason for so long some of its workflow habits have become second nature.
