Playbeat 4: Velocity modifier in STEP page

It’s a real hassle to have to click 2 pages across to get the velocity for any track/hit. And once in there, to have to click two pages across again to get to back to step input.

Velocity could be implemented far quicker, straight in the step page, with shift+ left click and drag.

What’s more is the velocity page gets confusing when there are no hits, say on each off beat, but the view is still filled with velocity bars.

Having a simple horizontal stroke to vertically represent velocity on any active step, in the step page, is far tidier, practically and visually imo. This would allow quick and simultaneous step and velocity editing.

side note: I know this is a big one (essentially making the volume page slightly redundant), but my other (main) step sequencer does this, and I prefer it. There’s also some things I like about Playbeat, eg. loop regions, so i’m still back and forth to see if I can make Playbeat my main step seq,…but im not quite there yet.
