My list would be a hundred pages long but the bulk of it would probably come down to that one big problem. The convoluted menus are just hell. Biab simply tries to do too much with them and they are often confusing, unnecessary and can slow the workflow down to a point that makes you want to not bother.

One example, "select realtracks". This should have no sub-menus, it should be one click to open up a single Realtracks window (not two different ones) where we make our choices. Having all the options shown in the menus, including their current state - it's just madness. Honestly, I sometimes don't know if I'm coming or going with it all!

Of course a lot of this could be forgiven if we had customisable key shortcuts.

Concentrating on just these two things alone would massively improve the software quickly, easily and probably cheaply.

The piano roll? Hmm. Up until now I've not been too bothered by it for the simple reason that any midi editing I wanted to do, I just did in the DAW. I have used software from the early 90s that had more usable and advanced key editors than Biab's current version - just not worth the bother.

However, with the advent of playable realtracks I agree this now needs some serious work. Even bringing it up to the most basic of usable functionality would be a huge leap forward.

BTW, not sure about on Mac but about the velocity adjusting problem, just use shift +/- on the selected note for increments of +/-5 (I think).
