I love the 'real tracks' feature and marvel at how well it works.

I would like suggest of few additional features:

(a) Partial Regenerate the real tracks. Currently the whole track is regenerated, but it would be good to have a feature like in the composing section where the music can be generated for a specific few or range of verses.

(b) Sometimes within a certain real track, there are sometimes rifts and breaks that do not suit the feel of the music. It would be good to be able to at least delete some parts of the pre-recorded real tracks recordings in a similar way the you can delete style sections. I understand that changing one of these rifts is probably out of the question, but being able to suppress its use would be useful.

(c) Automatic latency calculation. With midi card sounds and real tracks now been recorded together, the latency figure for the midi sound software (like Roland sound canvas) is a critical value. It would be good to have an automatic way to actually generate the latency figure depending on the computer it is running on.

I have found, that when I use the default Roland latency, I find that the real tracks doesn't seem to match the exact timing of the midi tracks. It is difficult to get this right, and so an automatic way of doing it would be helpful.

with thanks ... Clyde

If you are using a DXi or VSTi synthesizer, then the latency should be automatic. If not using DXi or VSTi, when choosing a MIDI driver in the MIDI Driver Setup window, a latency setting will be calculated and suggested to you. If you have not seen this, try going back to the MIDI Driver Setup, re-choose the MIDI output driver, set "Driver Latency" to zero, and click OK. At this point the latency suggestion should occur and you should choose "yes".

Thanks Blake for those suggestions and clear instructions.

When I did that, it certainly came up with some different numbers, so I will be interested to listen closely to the end result.

Yes,

a partial regeneration of RealTracks would be great.
