Error & Problem Messaging: Please Elaborate!

Post by otalgia99 » Mon Apr 15, 2024 9:32 pm

Oh, how great it would be if, when Live reports to you that a problem exists (other than missing samples, about which complete details are provided) that one rather crucial piece of further detail about it is included in the message: where the problem currently exists.

Please! Just tell me which track it's on, I can do the rest!

As an example, simply alerting us to the fact that "a single parameter cannot be controlled by more than one controlling device" -- but then leaving it at that -- isn't terribly helpful, imho.

If instead the message could say "Found on track nn..." and then go on to state the remainder of the trouble, it would save SO. Much. time.

But that's just me,
