Two questionable defaults
Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2012 8:21 pm
1.
I´d appreciate when I open a new blank LXConsole document if it asked me whether Id like it to be patched 1 to 1.
Today every channel in a new LXConsole-document is unpatched.
I think it would be more natural if the default setting was a 1:1 patch.
But a polite question maybe could be a compromise.
2. The default device ID in for LXConsole as "MidiDevice" is device number "1"
In Qlab the default DeviceID for any Midi Show control message is "0".
I wonder why this differs?
It's not a big issue but it's remarkable.
To someone like me using Qlab and LXConsole in almost everything I do on a stage it's pretty annoying. It´s one of those things that some of my solutions occassionally need support on when they´ve left home and gone on the road.
I guess there might be different attitudes and approaches explaining this difference. So, if anyone ever is to change this default value; will it be Qlab or LXConsole - What do you mr. Admin think is the most sensible answer?
