    Nice video!
    I love the simplicity of GB, but I wish, like Logic, there was an advanced toggle (even if it was buried deep somewhere) that would allow for more advanced features like parameter automation for any parameter. The advanced toggle doesn't have to do anything super crazy and turn GB into Logic (though I wouldn't complain!) but if it just added a few key features that would be awesome. Ah well, GB is still fun to use.

    Everybody knows that; While recording midi, knob changes on any intrument saved as automation that we can not view or edit after recoring.( For example: Resonance change on an Alchemy Synth)
    And I am very angry to Apple for why they don’t add this feature. And I think there is many possible solutions to fix this. For example only knob recording.
    Anyway, I discover a poor method for creating knob automation for a midi clip :(
    1- Copy the instrument, as new Intrument (without midi)
    2- Practise which knob you will change on first Intrument
    3- Record practiced knob movements on second Intrument while music is playing from first instrument (yes you can not hear any knob effect in real time so you have to practise.)
    4- Copy the midi from first track to second one. ( And delete first. :) )
    5- Congratulations! You have an intrument with knob automation which they done after midi recording.
    I hope you guys will understand, It’s not practical but I just want to share my experiments :D

    • @PeteJohnsMusic
      @PeteJohnsMusic  4 года назад +2

      Hey there. Yes, I guess the challenge between keeping things simple and providing features is something Apple need to juggle.
      I like this method. I’ve heard of similar things but never actually tried it myself. Might be a good thing to test out in a video in the future. 👍
