You know...
I've HATED using midi-editors in the past. Too clunky, too obfuscated with buttons, boxes, etc...
Which it appears is something either keyboard players like, or people who start out writing with midi prefer.
I've used midi more in Reaper recently than I've used midi ever. I don't like how the editor makes you save, and it seems "funny" how it does quantizing (imo)..
But being able to start from just a "regular" track on the tcp is cool, as well as how the track handles it with the *same editing conventions as the audio portion*.
Personally, I don't want the Reaper midi editor to have a drastically different way of editing midi; I prefer things "look" like I'm editing it as audio as closely as possible.
As well as stay simple, in some way. So I'd like to say Justin, if you go off on a new paradigm for the editor, make sure you keep a simplified "primitive" version available.
