Metronome precount feature LIVES!
Posted: Fri Feb 23, 2018 12:42 am
I have done what some said couldn't be done.
Precount was disabled for what, 10 years now?
It's back, better than ever. In git master now. Just a small triumph
See the ChangeLog and the new README.metronome for details
about how to use it and how it works.
I just realized last night that it shouldn't always work in play mode.
I'll need to add another metronome dialog option button for that.
And, I guess I will ask here since Robert will get this:
There are two existing option buttons so far: Prerecord and Preroll.
I researched Preroll in other apps and I think I get it. It's disabled while I try to implement it. Hang in there!
I believe that like other apps, you can already accomplish this manually using our punch-in and punch-out.
But what is Prerecord? So far I made it simply whether to turn on precount in Record mode.
But I'm certain that was not the intention of the option.
I'm guessing it is similar to preroll, except it turns on the recording immediately at the preroll location
rather than at the current play head location as preroll does?
I noticed some apps seem to make their concepts of precount and preroll mutually exclusive,
if they even supported both.
Any preferences out there regarding precount while I'm in the code? Wants? Needs?
Thanks.
Tim.
