Hi Leo,
first time I’m writing on this forum so first of all : hail up for your software and the great work you keep on doing on it !
Here is my problem : I setup a loop section (with +LOOP) so the section automatically loop. This works fine. Then I click on the loop button (or L) to escape from the loop and here is what happened : the loop is deactivate but the song jump straight to the next section whereas it is supposed to finish the section before.
Could you please tell me if I’m doing something wrong with ableset ?
Many thanks
Also, it happens only if I put locators on my set. If I only use section on a midi track, then everyting works fine. But then I’m not able to the next / previous section.
Which leads me to a question : the command to move to the next / previous section only works with locators right ? it doesn’t work with section tracks ?
This is a bit counterintuitive, but when I initially added support for loops, the default mode was to jump to the next section as soon as the loop was disabled. I later added the ability to let the loop run through, but didn’t want to change the behavior for users who were already used to the initial behavior.
So I introduced a new +LOOPFULL flag, which always lets the loop run through (i.e., only disables the loop bracket). You can use this flag instead of the +LOOP flag to achieve the behavior you were expecting.
When you only use section clips, AbleSet can’t jump to the next section upon disabling the loop bracket, so the +LOOP flag behaves like the +LOOPFULL flag in that case.
I’m thinking of changing this in AbleSet 3 so the +LOOP flag behaves like the +LOOPFULL flag by default, which might be more intuitive.
Thanks Leo, OK now I understand and have applied the +LOOPFULL flag so it works how I want. If you could find a way to jump to the next section when you are in a loop (by using section clips) it would be a nice add (at least for me )
Good job again Leo, keep up the great work
