I recently updated from version 11 and I'm generally pleased with the new features - especially the ones that make it easier to import and export individual tracks!

Some functions that used to work fine seem to have been a little messed up though:

1 Edit > Length of midi music (I used to use this all the time. Now I can only make the notes shorter...)
2 Track > Merge (Works only for audio tracks now. No luck with midi tracks.)
3 Endless Loop (behaves strangely, the music doesn't always jump to the looping section but start looping when it gets there)

Though I have tried RealBand (I already use Biab) and plan to use it more in the future, I'll stick to Powertracks as my main tool as I like the simplicity and larger screen estate. Thanks for not abandoning it! Here are some of my wishes for future versions:

1. Saving "snap" as default when starting PT.
2. Be able to keep Tracks window maximized while switching back and forth between windows. Now this only works when switching to/from bars and chords window. Not with the piano roll or notation windows (I'd love to be able to keep the piano roll maximized too, btw)
3. Scrolling Tracks window
4. Collapsible left area of the Tracks window
5. More midi editing/morphing features (e.g. reversing a section of notes, changing scale/mode, creating arpeggios)
6. Midi editing while playing and looping a section. Would be brilliant for quick experimenting with ideas and for "trial and error composing"
7. Envelopes for the audioeffects
