This series of videos will highlight area where subtle changes can produce a MUCH LARGER SYNERGY between views and floating windows as it greatly speeds
Imagine working freely between all the views with the correct location and selection ready to go for you.
Imagine looping a passage and all views honor your loop status allowing you to make your refinements to the loop without interrupting your creativity.
Please support this Improvement request.
Thanks

This really should be a given for the design of BIAB.
That it isn't already shows the piecemeal nature of its evolution.

The post should probably be in the wishlist forum, though that's perhaps moot.

It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

+1, I agree, hope this is not a new feature for 2025 smile but it should be patched soon.

+1 for sure. These are things that need to be included in this year's release. They smooth out the new features, and help make it even better.

This is excellent and should definitely be incorporated into the existing workflow. I feel sure that PGM would agree. This lends itself as a perfect enhancement to the new features in the 2024 release.

I see 2024 BIAB update as a huge step forward. Extremely fast regenerations utilizing multiple CPU cores, a non modal Library that has most of PGM content - all in one place, very easy way(s) to do partial regen, more floating - non jailed windows, etc. Program became much friendlier to use and I stay in it much longer than I used to. There are usually some requests that seem hard to implement or unrealistic, but all things OP suggested makes a perfect sense and it seems very doable as a part of a patch release.

"subtle changes can produce a MUCH LARGER SYNERGY between views and floating windows as it greatly speeds up your workflow and increase your creativity."

This is very true and I hope Peter & Team will consider these points for upcoming patches within 2024. OP's group are not "new features", but a tune-up of the existing workflow that will make program much more coherent.

BTW, nice video. You should consider making a few tutorials smile

The more I look at this video, the more I like what it delivers.
Presumably PG Music will chip in at some point too?

+1 for this great suggestion.
+100 for giving priority to fixing the bugs and issues of the current version, before implementing new features.

A question comes to mind. How many users feel this would enhance you workflow and in what ways? Please be as detailed as possible. I’ll go first.

1. For me this would make me stay longer in BiaB during the creation stage of a song project

2. Make creative decisions easier and far more intuitive

3. Decrease time needed to get certain tracks right.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Especially after all this progress, it shouldn't be so difficult to harmonize everything. Cathy, spread the word! wink We will really have a Pro product after that.
Finally when I say Pro, I'm not talking about the Pro version, you understand me. Long live it!
