Christophe, are you drunk? You're not making much sense. Of course he copied with the mouse, by using it to bring up the copy dialogue.
Just so you all know, Lance has posted exactly the same response on a thread in the beta forum that isn't even about this idea. Some of his ranting is about other discussions on the beta forum, so if some of it seems out of the blue, that's why. I think he is starting to lose his mind, but I don't want his ill-informed ramblings to go un-countered, so here we go.
Lance wrote:"Just press B, then 6 on your keyboard"?
Well, that's superior to a single mouse-drag up or down in your world?
Where did I say that? There are 4 ways to change patterns and I use all of them. But if you need to go from A1 to B7, then pressing "B", then "7" is probably the quickest way to get there.
Simple mouse commands are the fastest way to arrange, I want to keep that way!
How stupid are you? Read what I said, you can use every one of the methods you use now and they will work just as effectively. There is absolutely no difference between changing from pattern A1 to A2 as there is 000 to 001. Its the same thing so why would you not do it the same way? I can't even understand why you would think stuff like this. It's pure craziness.
You're lying to noob public users telling we do not like your genius idea only because we don't understand it.
But you clearly don't understand it or you wouldn't be coming out with stupid bullshit like this. All you are doing is confusing people by saying things that don't make sense.
Tell me which patterns I would get at an instrument for arranging in the Playlist with your global pool? Only those which I want to have specificly for that instrument as right now?
What would be the point of that? The whole idea is that you'd be able to use patterns from any instrument, so obviously they will all be available to use in the Playlist. That's the whole point of doing the thing in the first place.
The generators are having their pattern bank at the Playlist too! Your globall pool at every generator idea will affect and destroy the easy and fast Playlist usage too!
Why will it? Generators now have 64 patterns available but that doesn't get in the way, does it? So why would 1000 or 10,000 patterns? If you just want to use 3 or 4 patterns, then you just use those, exactly as you'd use the 3 or 4 patterns out of 64 possible patterns now.
I want to keep instrument specific pattern banks! I don't like your 4 button pattern selector!
As strange as it may seem, I don't give a toss what you do or do not like. I don't necessarily "like" it either, but to me it is obvious that it would make Orion better. So far most users here seem to agree.
I don't want your global pool hurting, slowing and compromizing the current workflow and the way Orion handles patterns for creating, changing, selecting and arranging!
Then you're in luck, because it won't do any of that.
I DO NOT LIKE YOUR IDEA! SAVVY?
I'm not interested in what you do or do not like, your life means less than nothing to me. I'm interested in making Orion better and this change would address a lot of issues that we've all just got used to over the years.
It's not about not understanding it!
With you, that is exactly what its about. Its like I've told you I just got a new pet cat but before I got the chance to say "cat", you've heard "pet" and all you can think about is how much you hate dogs. But I'm not talking about dogs so anything you have to say is irrelevant.
My Duplicate FR was about progressing with layers and songs, adding instruments in a fast way to work further.
No, it was about not knowing how to use Orion, pure and simple, because what you were asking for is already easy to do with existing features. You were just to pig-headed to even try to do it the way I showed you.
