qtractor

Greets,

One of my favorite drum synth plugins, stegosaurus, appears to have been given a new life. I compiled and installed but the LV2 UI is kinda b0rk3d when I run it from Qtractor.

Looks fine when I load the same LV2 via Carla (no extra black space at the bottom)

It may be worth mentioning the VST loaded via Qtractor behaves as expected.

I have solved the problem of not being able to customize the MixerStrip through QSS because they lost the visual selection display.

This is the solution, not only had to assign the custom property, also update:

...qtractorMixer.cpp line 780

Hi Rui:
QSS stylesheets require absolute paths for images.
I have decided to add the VTQ_PATH variable to the VTQ format.

This allows you to include image backgrounds. Also extra icons for QT elements such as the arrows of the QAbstractSpinBox, QCombox, etc.

Example:
qtractorPluginListView {
background: url(VTQ_PATH/Tecnico_Images/shelves.png);
}

This is just an idea to consider or not.

I've been thinking about how to set up the ability to assign properties to clips as a group.
I think that if you copy the properties of a clip, it would be feasible to make all the selected clips assign the property by copying and pasting properties.

Empty MIDI clips can be used to insert Lyrics and Markers to structure the project. I know Qtractor has Markers, but they are more useful for time changes than for flexible structuring when planning the project.

The only problem is that you cannot directly access the MIDI clip properties without going through the editor.

You can change the size of the clip text with QSS:
qtractorTrackView {
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: bold;
}

I have tried to be as clear as possible, both in the construction of the template and in the tutorial.

I don't know if I have succeeded.
I will wait a few days before indexing it to the general index and to the "How to" index so that you can review it if you want.

Any suggestions for improvement will be listened to.

I share the template for the tutorial:
Automation of buses (and any other element) with Midi Controller CC template.

The idea is that whoever wants to try it and give me feedback on:
* Is it understandable?
* Is it operational?
* Has it generated any errors for you?
* Also get suggestions etc.

I think there is a simpler solution.
I appreciate the effort anyway.

---OPTION 1---

The simplest solution:

If we create a "comments" property on tracks the need to have to put long names disappears.
I think implementing a new property on tracks is less effort than what you have had to do.

Hi and a happy new year,

not sure if this is a Qtractor or PipeWire problem, I am trying to use PipeWires resampling for recording. Here is my setup:

I bought an Intech Studio Grid TEK2 MIDI controller. It can be programmed to send MIDI data when pushing buttons or turning knobs and to do things like switching on/off LEDs.
