Fantasia instrument db view inconsitency
Posted: Wed Aug 06, 2008 10:42 am
I was creating my database in Fantasia and came accross a small issue that is causing the way my programs are layout in my gigs to be all wrong.
I am using Opus 1 and 2 from the VSL libraries. They provide a decent mapping of thier instruments that I would like to maintain. The only issue is they have blank programs/patches in thier banks that they use as headings. See below -- BASIC INSTRUMENT -- and -- RELEASE TRIGGER --. this is very handy to understand the way they layout thier patches. I was able to add the index column and sort by it to fix the issue of the programs being messed order wise:
So all is well with this. The problem occurs when I try to use the db to load a channel. I get this:
You will notice it is sorting by name and there is no way to add an index field to sort it out. This becomes very hard to deal with in many cases where there are 40+ patches. Also notice how the names are not the most descriptive. The Headders they created with blank programs come in handy here.
Could someone add the index field to the select instrument dialog?
Thanks!
