i am going to create a font file with some symbols or signs that are used a lot while working with sm. some ideas are the flat sign that was requested here, some simple waveforms etc. my target is to creare a font that can be downloaded by every user to make working with sm(or with other apps where you need theese signs )easier .if somebody has some ideas of symbols or signs that are used often please tell me and i will include them. thx

Everything related to music notation would be a good start.

Great Idea! Music General

Transport controls: stop,play, record, pause, fast forward, speedy fast forward, rewind, speedy rewind, beginning, end

MIDI: MIDI logo (filled & outline, to show on/off), keyboard symbol (small scale), keys, MIDI connector

Music parts symbols (might be in other fonts?): speaker case, woofer, tweeter (both with & without sound coming out?), connectors, plugs, wires...

VST logo, perhaps with version #s? Symbols for the different surround-speaker arrangements L & R speakers volume/meters with different readouts (could be a font in its own)

SM Specific

all the SM connectors, primitives... SM smilies (I have SVG files of a few if you want) SM Logo in different arrangements & "Made With"

more later

thx man. 😀 i like your ideas and most of them are exactly what i was looking for. 😉 some of them, for example the sm primitives, are allready included and most of the others on your wishlist will be included from now on. if you have some svg stuff just send me a pm, could be really helpfull. ah, by the way: i don´t know anything about the code module and how it is used so my question is: how many different commands are used there? can i include them in this font file or dis it better to create a own file for code commands?

Yep thx walther. ASIO is on the list now. 😉

File icons: Open file/folder/drive, save file/all

edit1 interface icons: Mouse: blank, Left-click, Left-double-click (perhaps with a "2" inside the LMouseButton), Right-click, Right-double-click, drag: left, right, up, down, left & right, up & down, all directions, touch (screen or trackpad, but I guess both will look the same), power off/on, pen/pencil for "write" or "edit".

edit2 (might be too much) arrows: like the connector arrows for green, stream (gray), mono (blue), etc... maybe with notches?

I'm not sure if really needed, since there are fonts already for that. Or are you making a compilation of everything so everything is in 1 font file? Could be good for the forum also...

Before your first post

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    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.
