The "start ending 2 bars early" option is very handy and I use it a lot, but not on pieces where the melody ends on the final bar. At the moment, for these I have to make a "tag" ending but since the tag can't simply be the ending itself, it's a little awkward.

Any chance of adding a tick box to start the ending 1 bar early?

Thanks!

Good idea. I'm not aware of how to deliver this with the current system.

That makes sense. It would be nice as an additional option.

I was just about to post this again, having forgotten about this thread - luckily I remembered the forum rules and did a search laugh Anyway, over the last few months I've wished for this numerous times, so just wanted to keep the request alive!

Hi Mike02392. I've followed this post hoping someone would reference an example but so far it's not happened. I'm not understanding the issue and have become curious to why there's a difference that an ending with the melody ending on the final bar doesn't work with "start ending 2 bars early" or what ever measure the ending begins you choose to start it and why a single measure that will "start ending 1 bar early" works.

Are there any User Showcase songs posted I can review?
Possibly a commercial release on YouTube?
Or, better, maybe post an SGU file displaying the issue?

Thanks,

Charlie

I seem to recall that one of the members explained the exact reason that this was introduced was because of introduction of Real Tracks and the ability to fade, and this makes perfect sense.

I also can see that the 'earlier ending' start could be something other than 2 bars. So yes, why does the option need to be exactly 2 bars?

Ideally it'd be best to have a box letting us specify the number of bars to start the ending early, but the vast majority will be 1 or 2, so would take that if it's easier for the devs.

Disappointed to see that this has been left out yet again frown Can it be included in a patch? It doesn't seem to be that complex a feature and it would be really helpful.
