In the “Keys” view, I would love to see the keys that are being pressed with a different color (for example red) instead of just a shadow so that they are easier to notice when playing and studying a midi file.
An example can be seen here http://midikeyz.com/Features_files/MIDIKeyboard.jpg
something similar to Ctrl-K on the desktop (so we have a parent region, when changed all children are also changed)
(these two simple features would make the app a viable desktop DAW replacement in terms of usability - for me at least)
Harder stuff:
automation (volume/pan at first then full automation of plugins etc) - would be great if automation is ‘drawable’ in an editor)
improve the sounds available, the quality is lacking to say the least. I’d personally trade app size for sound quality
some way of loading my sample cd’s (i.e. a software sampler)
group tracks
the ability to start an iPad compatible song in desktop cubase (with whatever limitations that brings with it). I’d like to be able to chop and change between the two, not just start in Cubasis->Cubase…
I would like a mechanism to lock the current position of the locators. Inadvertently touching a clip for a second too long should not always set the locators to that clip’s start and end positions.
The grid and snap settings (the two buttons to the right of the quantize button) don’t persist. Set them to new values, exit Cubasis, delete Cubasis as a background app, load Cubasis and the settings revert back to default.
New to the forum but I just noticed that IMPC and Beatmaker had bigger pads with less space between each pad. Would it be possible to have bigger pads when those pads fill the screen in a 4x4 grid? It would be a real instrument in itself, whereas right now you have to move your fingers a lot.
