Music Maker update 31.0.3.26

@ralftaro

Hi,

Thank the team for the "link to own audio recordings in the File Manager."

However, there is still a problem.

I have recordings all over the place but the File Manager doesn't find the folders under:

B:\Documents\MAGIX

except as shown below.

Note that the folder (B:\Documents\MAGIX) - created by Magix long ago, also shows up as

B:\Documents\MAGIX Projects

I have recordings in older versions of Music Maker, in Video Pro X, Movie Studio, Audio Cleaning Lab, Audio & Music Lab (various years) Sound Forge Audio Cleaning Lab 4 (my documents for 3 and 4 are under SOUND FORGE Audio Cleaning Lab) - I can't get to any of them. The only folder that shows up is shown below:

So, I know that Music Maker File Manager can find the folder MAGIX (or MAGIX Projects) but gives access only to Music Maker.

Something strange is happening.

Another comment, as nice as it is to have another Link, it would be better to have the system like in Movie Studio/Move Edit Pro/Video Pro X whereby we can create our own links.

Thanks,

John CB

I updated MMM and now the menu menu bar is gone from MIDI editor and ctrl-mouse wheel doesn't zoom like before. Now ctrl-shift-mouse wheel is needed: Also I used shift-mouse wheel to enlarge/shrink midi notes, now it's ctrl-mouse wheel and shift-mouse wheel makes the sheet go forward/backward, instead of just mouse wheel. also I used alt-mouse wheel to scroll sheet up/down and precise positioning of notes, now it just scrolls only up no matter which way id scroll mouse wheel. Note positioning in intact. Mouse wheel scrolls sheet it down now when it previously went forward/backward. I'm truly speehless.

Looks like I don't continue my song afterall...

Hi,

I have patch 31.0.3.26. Here is the MIDI Editor. Please point out what I'm missing.

Something is wrong with your setup. Works fine here.

I'm pretty sure that my mouse wheel scrolled up and down in the Arranger, not horizontally.

And how exatcly is "something wrong" with my setup, when before the update MIDI editor was fine (with its bugs though) and worked?

@Cloudglow

I have no idea, but it's fine on my computer.

I also cannot reproduce what you are seeing.

@Cloudglow Do you use custom fonts or text scaling? The title of the MIDI Editor windows looks like it uses a bold text style.

Cloudglow wrote on 12/9/2022, 11:49 AM

@SP.

Yes I use larger texts in Windows to help me see the texts.

@Cloudglow Ok, this could be a possible cause why cannot see the menu right now.

@Cloudglow

Hi

. . . . I use larger texts in Windows to help me see the texts. . . . .

Check that you have not turned on other accessibility features such as Sticky keys etc for the issue you are having with the mouse scroll wheel, or the a modifier key is not sticking.

I also cannot replicate the issue.

@johnebaker

Ok, got it working after I got the menu showing. The font larger than 9 hid the menu.

@Cloudglow

If you want the text larger are you aware of this setting?

I will freely admit I have only recently become aware of this option but it does make a real difference to the readability of some of the onscreen text display.

Ho aggiornato MMM e ora la barra dei menu è sparita dall'editor MIDI e la rotellina del mouse ctrl non si ingrandisce come prima. Ora è necessaria la rotella del mouse ctrl-shift-mouse: Inoltre ho usato la rotella del mouse shift per ingrandire / ridurre le note midi, ora è ctrl-mouse rotellina e shift-mouse wheel fa andare avanti / indietro il foglio, invece di solo la rotellina del mouse. inoltre ho usato la rotellina del mouse alt per scorrere il foglio su / giù e il posizionamento preciso delle note, ora scorre solo verso l'alto, indipendentemente dal modo in cui l'id scorri la rotellina del mouse. Nota il posizionamento intatto. La rotellina del mouse scorre il foglio verso il basso ora che in precedenza andava avanti / indietro. Sono davvero spento.

Sembra che non continui la mia canzone dopo tutto ...

I solved everything by changing the font to 100% on the windows accessibility settings

@emmrecs

Yes, I'm aware of the setting, I've been using it.

@clifton-johnson

You have posted to a thread announcing the release of a patch to MM with some details of a problem you are experiencing with, I think, a subscription to Soundpools Unlimited. Is that correct? If so, has it occurred only since this latest update?

If not, you should create a new thread with details of the problem since, if its first appearance is not directly connected with the update patch this is really the wrong thread to post in!

Also, for the sake of other users who may NOT be native English readers or speakers, please do not post using idiomatic abbreviations or any form of text-speak. Thank you.

I also have 31.0.3.26 and once again all effects are reset from all tracks. Who only taught them how to write programs, I don't know

TK_ wrote on 12/17/2022, 8:48 AM

I have not written into this forum for a while, too tired of writing about bugs. :)

As many of us, I have also updated my software into its latest version... I have found strange things, this is one of those:

lets say I have three tracks on solo playing, if I want to add a fourth one, the software stops playing everything...why? It also stops playing if I put some track into mute mode.

Do you really have enough people for testing new versions before you put them online? It really looks like no.

@TK_

Hi,

I cannot replicate what you indicate. I tried with 6 tracks, 3 on Solo. During playback, I added Solo to another track. No problem, no stopping. I added another, no problem. And the last one. Then I turned Solo off one by one. No problem. With everything now playing, I muted the first track, no problem, the second, no problem...

So...where is the problem if I don't have it?

Hi

I also cannot replicate the problem you are having with Soloing stopping playback.

If you don't have the same problem, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, right? :)

The problem is that there are so many different types of computers and software platforms - but too few test users.

I fully agree! However what the various replies to your question do prove is that it is not a problem with MM per se. As you say there are so many different types of computers and software platforms (and, I would add, hardware) that it is impossible for any software manufacturer to absolutely guarantee a program will "work" for everyone.

I am not sure on what basis or knowledge you can claim there are too few test users. Unless everyone who uses a program is to be also a tester, what if just one user experiences a particular problem? Is it honestly worthwhile or economically expedient for the manufacturer to attempt to resolve that issue which appears on only one computer?? As far as I can see, no-one, other than you, has reported experiencing this problem with Solo stopping playback!

You might wish to create a Support ticket and have Magix technical support look at the specifics of your computer to ascertain whether there is anything which can be done to "correct" the problem for you.
