1) For a proper sample manager built into VDJ. I currently use the sample manager plugin, which does the job, but is far from ideal. Firstly, you can't name the stored banks, they are just listed in numerical order. Secondly, the manager's editing features are somewhat limited - once you've stored it, you're stuck with it. How about building an improved version of the sample manager into VDJ? It needn't take up much room on the skin - just a couple of pushbuttons for "save bank as..." and "delete", plus a drop-down menu with a list of sample groups (which would be names rather than numbers, you could store groups and name them as "intro jingles", "acapellas 1", "house loops" etc)... Rather like the effects menu - maybe even include keyboard shortcuts into the programming to allow quick access to selecting a page of samples. Here's a rough idea of what I had in mind...Thu 22 Mar 07 @ 6:47 pm

My latest project (which forms part of my new console, see below) is a MIDI controller for VDJ. It's built into a 2u rack panel, and sits alongside the mixer and DAC-2 as a convenient way of accessing features such as hot cues, looping features and FX. In addition, there are also two fader controls, for video crossfading and FX adjustments.Wed 06 Sep 06 @ 7:17 am
...then you should see some of these photos I found of it from back when I started in the early-mid 1990s!Wed 06 Sep 06 @ 6:53 am
I'm building a new console - an all in one solution complete with dual screens, built in dual CDs (just in case!), mixer, keyboard, midi controller, the lot. Power goes in, sound comes out, that's the plan at least...Wed 06 Sep 06 @ 6:28 am
Well, the equipment I mix on may be fairly state of the art, but the rest of the roadshow rig has stayed pretty old school over the years!Fri 24 Mar 06 @ 10:35 pm
