gui problems

alright i spent all night trying to figure out what i did to make the panel in the a view contain a gray border around the picture. i want to correct this as i am sure real estate is already tight for most of us, and its not intended so it shouldnt be there, thanks in advance. oh and sorry for the stupid question.

 

you set the panel color to gray, that mean panel A&B are going to be so. If you want you can either

A. put the picture in the "Background picture" for the properties

B. Make a picture for panel B.

I would also suggest making the marco lines visible and correct the element locations as this will reduce the massive area you are using.

 

thanks for the quick reply, i know i set the panel to gray. i cant move the ui elements, besides the picture, up and to the left ( to adjust the overall ens size) without there being a large space at the bottom. the gray just went with the black better i thought but this seems to happen to me sometimes, i will be putting random macros or modules into an ens and when i delete them or move them space is still occupied where they were. ie i can not adjust the size of the overall ensemble. i know about ..... i started looking for something i inserted to keep the ens size large enough to include the whole picture just now and found an empty macro, deleted it and there was my problem. thanks though and what do you think the machine needs? thanks

 

I made some adjustments to the GUI. I hope you don’t mind. I have picture of it below.


Also as hint to those that are interesting in GUI design in Reaktor you should always keep the line framed macros visible until you are sure of placement. When you make the lined frame invisible it does not move with the panel element it will increase the size of the area used this can have a dramatic effect on the size of your panel.

 

Drumtracks idea

i just downloaded this from the UL.

at the moment i can't trigger the sounds from the pads. but you can if you inset a Separator and Hold and do this:

horuschild, thank you that is exactly what i needed to be told. oh and your wood is so much nicer than mine, er uh, can i use your end cheeks/adjusments? you will get credit of course of would you prefer i fix?
sowari, i was able to trigger from the pads but only when the clock is running? so thanks for the help as usual, look for an update to both issues today, thank you gentlemen.

 

Sure do as you like with it. The reason the wood looks nice is because it is wood , the home can be wonderful to resouce for hard to create things like that. The picutre modules in the upload have the images loaded in all ready you would need to just copy and paste them in.

 

thank you sir. i was going to take a pic of my drumtraks for the purpose of end cheeks alone, but started messing around in photoshop and drew some brown lines instead. ha. lazy thanks for the help i really think you do nice work so i appreciate the comments.

 

If you have CS3 I will upload the file so that you can have it.

 

have on old copy of 7, sad i know

 

Try this different clock

hi joshua, i have noticed that this partictular clock (that is being used in Drumtracks) has issues when starting the sequence after a reset. basically you don't get a clean sound... just try hearing the kick track by itself, and hopefully you will hear what i mean.

i suggest using the enclosed macro my James Walker-Hall, instead of the Song Pos Module on all of the sequencers.

to clarify, to my ears Lazyfish's sequencer seems to suffer from resets and as a result you get a shorter more clicky sound rather than the natural sound of the the sample.

your the best. i knew i noticed this, but thought it was the long night and seemed to diminish with a little tweaking. also i played it for my bandmate and he thought i was being too meticulous. so thank you for confirming the click. i have no one to test these really as my bandmates laptop is dead. i will correct right away. also is this too similar to my current uploads, or too soon to upload more. i dont want to flood the library with my crap and feedback is kinda rare as im sure you know better than me, so your constant feedback is greatly appreciated. You should in my opinion get payed for what you do as its the biggest promoter of the product i see, but i digress. to me this seems different than boombox and drumtraks and mabey worth something.

 

yes Walkman is a little different you should do quite a few snaps for it i think.
