Dear Nuno,
at first once again "hats off" to your awesome work!
All the following comments are meant very politely and "feature requests" are uttered humble by me.
I tested with the latest QTractor svn2205, using a 31 minute (for stability issues) song with 2 tracks with midi drums to 2 different hardware synths and 1 audio file @ 32bit and 44.1KHz.
The audio automation in the track window works fine within the audio-track. No glitches and hick-ups, the features play/play all/clear/colour/gain/pan ... work very well.
Yet, I was not able to get the midi automation to work from within the track window at all (I can change pan/volume settings with the mixer rulers as well as sending midi controller messages). Yet sending midi controller messages, clock sync, program and bank changes works fine in my setup consisting of 5 hardware synthesizers, 1 vst and 2 tracks with SF2 using QSynth. Do I overlook a setting? - if so, could be very embarrassing for me ;-)
Automation possibilities are read afaik correctly from the instruments (tested it with Kurzweil SP2X, Waldorf microQ, Delay Lama VST, audio track).
Generally, I like the way indicating activated automation with the green "roof"-symbol and only to show all activated automation with the green leds in the menu and not in the track, therefore it is not looking overcrowded - which I prefer.
I do not miss saving displayed automation curves when saving a file and reopening it as well as a global "show automation on/off" button in the top menu bar.
Adding automation-points works fine and they can be moved flawlessly. Hoovering over an automation-point shows properly it's info (which automation, position, track, value). I personally do not miss a box to "type in" exact positions.
Changing colours of the curves works fine, being able to choose from different types of automation curves (linear, spline, fixed value) is a musically feature I love.
Greetings,
Michael
