The import of a global plugin with multiple I/O mappings now also creates a default insert mapping for the first I/O pair. The insert mapping is easier to use if you only intend to use a single MIDI channel and single I/O of a multiple channel capable plugin.

Just wondering…

1….since you have made the above change to the way plugins are imported (very welcome of course), could you also add the menu command you suggested to solve the automapping issue please?

“I could add a menu command to the project page that will modify the audio mapping objects to the current interface selection.”

My last post on the automapping thread provides a further detailed suggestion that deals with the import of plugs as well, which is an area you are working on now please have a look at my last post in the Automapping thread as your current import refinements suggest you might be inclined to re visit this area sooner rather than later, as you are already making refinements in that area in 1.97.

Other suggestions for the project start page…now that you are working there…

2. Recent projects management

3. Imported File management

4. Improved searching. I started a “Relink all files…” thread some time ago and Acousmod made a very interesting comment in that thread…

“I know that I can select several files, but I work generally with a lot of arrangements inside a project and I don’t record audio in Podium but import files from different drives, internal and external.

Since the files are spread on the different arrangements, and often I don’t know if they are in the same folders or not, it takes a lot of work to search for each of them when it is needed.
If Podium could search for the subfolders and apply the paths to all the files that share the same places it would be a great help.

It could be an option in the preferences in the case of people use the same names for different files.”

IMO I think it is a very good idea.
