request: remove arbitrary limits
examples of arbitrary limits:
- songs length max 128 patterns
- number of patterns max 128
- pitch channels max 10
- only 4 notes per chord
- ...
going beyond such limits may not SEEM necessary to you, but to someone else it MAY b needed, so u should b able to do it if you want to. "if my computer can handle it then you can do it" is what i say!
there was a song i made once which was longer than 128 patterns, i had to cut it in half and splice the audio :(.
Most of these are available in JummBox, so I don't think Shak will bother extending these limitations much.
If I had to vouch for some though to be in vanilla BeepBox though, the note-in-chord limit of 4 and volume control are things I find most annoying...
agreed, 4 isnt enough for anything, things with a limit of 4 should b bumped up to atleast 8, the 4 level volumes r the most difficult for me to deal with
the 4 level volumes for notes, and the 8 level volumes for instruments is extremely limiting and i run into problems with these all the time.
i still have trouble with it, i try to reduce the volume of my tracks now to stop it from ramming up against the volume limit and getting compressed and i have trouble balancing the tracks because of these very outdated limits.
