    There's alot more you can do colourwise than that without having to steal anything from other DAWs...

    I have been using Samplitude since 2004 and Sequoia in the last year or so.. I would not call myself an expert but I know a few things about it.

    Let me know if you need any help with it :)

    I opened another thread for BIOS tweaking etc...

    http://audiosex.pro/index.php?/topic/10122-tweaking-bios-for-windows-7-64-bit-sound-freezing-clicking-etc/#entry66075

    peghead, I have problems with Sequoia on the perfomance side... Live work great on my system, which is not the situation with Seq. So please see this thread.


    me too, even it's not big deal... functionality is on the first place, but... everyone's like good looking app

    About Skin sorry to repeat but they are so good:
    Have a look at Birdline Platinum Skin Pack.
    Check AudioZ

    after all tweakings (bios, w7, sequoia) now work reasonable, like Reaper with same project and the same few plugins...

    Tweakings are here:

    Waiting for many years some bugs, example

    phase menu, When you select phase and right click phase icon, you can see phase menu, Select a any preset and get close menu click ok. After, again right click phase icon Your choice does not appear, preset area is blank, this is still unresolved

    more

    When you first open the template 100 stereo tracks ,Enter mixer,It seems only 8 channels, then we can change, but you must to fix always at the time 8 channels, this is a very interesting bug. i hope and my guess next samp x2 comes 2014 Q4

    I don't know why but Samplitude/Sequoia has some strange graphics behaviour, when you open toolbar and close it's not so smooth etc...


    -------------------
    ... and after lot of time spend with this DAW I realize to must do following :)

    un_sam.jpg

    Sorry SEQ/SAM, but it's not for me, just there is a lot of strange problems and it's a year 2014:

    1) GUI is very strange, showing and hiding windows are from the era of Windows 95 and bad graphic cards.
    2) Very complicated learning curve, to much confused shortcut's and to much options hided in array of menu's (if you suddenly choose right click on object or something like that, object or other gone... right click is almost-always designed and dedicated to pop-up options menu)
    3) Very confused settings, very lot of settings (pre-load, after-load, in-load etc...) and after all this tweaks I have click's pop's sometimes with buffer 512 ?!??)
    4) Independence library is great, really impressive sounding library, but software is like MAGIX :) lot of settings and after that in some situations I get click's, freezes etc... (I try with Engine2 Best Service, same shit) I try Independece 3.0, 3.1 and 3.3 (come with newest Samplitude)
    5) Floating windows, if I choose to open midi editor in floated window, or whatever, Object Editor I always get controls for arranging menues and windows !??? Should be fine to this behaviour is parametrized.
    6) Magix Am-Munition compressor is overrated I think, there is a lot of vst's with same functionality and better results.
    7) etc... etc... I realy cannot find any benefit with Magix in among to Studio One or Pro Tools.
    8) .... Wave's element synth not work ??? c'mon

    One more thing, we must be gratefull for this kind of stuff and comunities like this, imagine I pay for this software and I must watch it every day in my life!... and I'm not satisfied.

    Thanks all of you guys, for joined to this thread.
