1. Grid Editor. Can you please boost the visibility of the Grid Editor in SD3?
Ideally by placing an additional tab at the top between Grooves and Mixer.
This is at least 50% of the reason I purchased the program, and when I first started using it--I panicked because I could not find it. Its an awesome/powerful feature and I think you guys are burying it in the weeds.
2. Quicker Grid Editor Action. Also, please allow the user to immediately start laying down notes in the Grid Editor. Why must you first go to the Song Block drop zone and add an Empty MIDI Block? (This is counter-intuitive . . .)
3. Manual Improvement (Note Size, Note Selection). I am coming to SD3 from Maschine--a very different paradigm (probably the opposite workflow for sizing notes . . .). However, I have discovered that I think your system inherently is much more powerful for drums. But you make people work too hard to understand the model. Can you please expand on how to select note types, e.g. 16th notes vs 32nd notes (using the note type drop-down, then changing the grid size using zoom) and then also document what the Select drop down can be used for--and how you can audition various ideas, by selecting/adding/deleting various notes (e.g. a workflow example). Had to learn about this in the Release Notes--rather than the manual . . .
The program would be much more intuitive if you can open the software, find the Grid Editor tab at the top, and immediately start laying down notes in the Grid Editor--why make it so convoluted? (You loose a lot of intuitiveness the way it is currently setup and "instant gratification" . . . which makes you bond to the software quicker, which builds confidence quicker).
Keep up the good work. Love SD3--its incredibly powerful and fun.
