Un truc de fou : OS 3.0!?

Citation : I visit your OS page every day with the same happiness, as the child searching in a garden some eastern chocolate eggs, as gifts ! Thank you so much. I suppose that you are a passionate "mad" genius of the MPC1000, and that you can spend much time of work on it because of the MPC1k community's registering money (?).

You work a lot and so well, even if I picture the complexity of the situation with upgrades, fixes and system OS memory limitation. You may have lots of mails to read I guess, so I'll try to be as precise and as short as possible:

The system OS memory limitation prevent you from heavyweight-os upgrades.

So you have to choose to remove some useless tricks if you want to develop more functions or menu's ergonomy. No one can tell you what is to remove and what is to add because the os has to be useful for everyone, regardless of his proper and limited needs, that 's what I understood.

But if you consider the truth : you have created a 2nd MPC for only 30 dollars, you could consider creating a 3rd one for the double price if you like (I mean that if you do I'm interested :-)) you could have some new clients among the old version 4.XX community, and it would bring with them new v4.00 consumers no ? What if the Third MPC OS JJ v 5.0 had less general functions but more specific ones developed as midi implementation etc ? The idea would be to create a version 5.0 or AAA designed for home studio composing users specifically, those (lots) who have some PC/Mac nearby with some other programs for editing sample (trim menu), etc... ? How would it be like ?

* You said you had begun programming midi implementations facilities, would it be possible to finish it, at least for Filters or ADSR ? We are so many to use midi external controllers surfaces with lots of sliders and potentiometers that it would be brilliant to control the internal parameters with midi.

* An extended Grid Edit with more Edit functions (like we have in the "Seq Edit" pannel with general time selection of notes, pads or midi events leading to functions as move, copy, replace, transpose, velocity, etc... as you can do)

* For example would it be possible in the Grid Edit to move the notes (of the selected time and pad) in the time and between pads with a new combination of button (example : if selected click copy F3 or move F6 and then hitting the Pad or turning Data Wheel to move or copy to another time or another pad in the grid edit.) ?

* Would it be possible to record on the fly velocity level with Sliders ? (I know we can use level instead but it's not the same with layered sounds, isn't it ?)

* Perhaps in [mode + Pad 7] "progam mode" some pages are useless and can be removed to free memory since it's better in [mode + Pad 11] with your help.

* Perhaps you can remove Trim Menu (Aaargggh !) for composers that don't use loops, or those PC/Mac users that can make the trim with computer and send it with USB.

Thank you for reading me.
Thank you for your work.

Citation : Your mail was sent to the programmer.
The programmer has said that solution is likely to be found in the problem of memory restrictions of os.
I think that it will probably be solvable within several months.
Therefore, still, jj os is not the final.

Thank you.
