Bigger workspace

I could really use a bigger workspace. Since I use the asm module alot I need a lot of streamins to go into the module. With the current workspace you are limited to about 125 streamins.

There is workaround since the asm module autostretches to the streamins. Now I can draw a link out of the workspace. But with 250 or more streamins its not very pleasant work.

Yeah i agree, what i think i said once before is that it would be nice if when you drag a module past the current max size is that the max size auto re-adjusts to the position the module goes to and with a code module it would do the same so you could have 1000 things in a code module if you wanted ect.

Edit - or maybe a right click option which lets you see the current size of a module and resize to a new size. But just for the module your in because im guessing it uses extra filesize maybe if the pannels really huge.

Good ideas.

125 streamins? Urm isn't that a bit much? BTW, SM concocts code together, so I'm sure you can split it up into segments?

I have it splitted up in segments now. That is the problem. If I have a bigger workspace and then more possible inputs. I can reuse big code portions and so improving cpu- and memory-usage. I am not making a synth. I am making a step stepsequencer with arrays. The custom array primitives don't do the job for me so I almost do everything with the asm module. See the reg-user section for my plugin Transistor.

Dev's any news on this?

Hold tight, sometimes they won't say anything, but 3-6 months later you'll see it added. I'm sure they have a dozen suggestions in que already. I can see how you can use a bigger workspace, but I have a gut feeling that you may have too many inputs... Have you tried wireless ins/outs? Or used the Bus system?

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
