Several questions about beatstation

[MASTFX]

hello, excuse me for my language I’m french.

I made the acquisition of this software release, so I installed
the first update on windows xp, I precise.

1) A more detailed version of the manual is planned? (Pad layout management)
2) A version in french can be?
3) I noticed that the buttons pitch, pan and volume editor
samples were not adjusted despite the sensitivity of the mouse,
is disadvantageous, changes are they planned? (retract the adjustable keyboard)
4) move, delete samples in the slots I did not find how to do
can you explain?
5) vst in Renoise (my tracker) I noticed in time and load
 a latency midi pads, I’d like to know if this is normal?
6) I find that the threshold for triggering sounds according to the velocity
could be adjusted downward and also at the top (double threshold, minimum and maximum)
 and the envelope is more accurate results (samples fruityloops edition is an example).

Thank you for your answers, it’s a great idea to gather all the composition
rhythm in a single instrument, good work!

Hi,

I’ll try to answer as best I can.

1) Well, more documentation is definitely planned, can’t give you more info right now, though.
2) A French manual is not on the list, no, but I can forward your request for one.
3) Could you please rephrase? Are you saying that changes you made to a pad’s sound(s) did not take place?
4) Why would you need to move samples between slots? To delete one slot, select it and click the round ‘x’ button in the lower right corner of the pad properties window.
5) How big is your H/W Buffer size? Do you have any latency inducing plugins in the signal path (in the mixer)?
6) Do you wish for these controls to be further expanded?

Best Regards,
John

3)adjustments with the mouse are difficult precise, it is the center of the button raproche least
the desired value is reached, to return values to the numeric keypad to facilitate editing samples.

4)I simply misread the manual, desolate.

5)latency is low(9 ms asio), the problem relates beastation vst, when I load an instrument
I feel a big load bank multi-sampled and midi-note signals are not well received for two
or three keystrokes, this is not in Stand-alone.(I could check with the latest release)

6)yes, the envloppe of pitch and trigger effect (such as the effects of battery noon games, flam roll …)

thank you for the answers, sad if I could post the message to the wrong place.

hello, I have another question.

is this normal that the volume output saturates while levels
are on zero value? I specify all the settings are at zero, there is no
effect and that is either standalone or vst, I could have proof
with the level meter in my software from my EMU soundcard;
Another thing, I’m not convinced that the update applies
really since I do not see the changes, the vst’s dll
 does not mark the version number, so I beg to refer
the date the file was created that goes back before the release of Beatstation.

In short, it is difficult for me to use this software as long as there
uncertainties, I liked the stable have bought, thank you to take
consider the buyer, another company misses their approach
Shopping at this level.

Hi,

depending on which FX are used, the output can be very hot, in those cases just lower the Master Volume.
To check if you’re running the latest version, please click the ‘?’ in the upper right corner of the interface and select ‘About Beatstation’.

Best Regards,
John

Hello to you.

I checked the update and it is indeed the last, which surprised me
is that the click (noise artifact) induced by the kick of the envelope’s release
This despite the update, so I precise that the saturation output
is without fx (NO FX) and volume control is all at 0 db(soundcard 24bit/48khz).

Excuse me if I did understand (google translation)
thank you.
