Question: I'd like to be able to drag and drop an audio item within another audio item and reaper while mixing them in realtime, presents me with two envelope to adjust the volume of the background and foreground mixed items and gives me the real time visual feedback of the post-waveform, something like crossfades for overlapping items but this time for mixing items,

    A plug-in that does crossfading would probably do what you want? I see what you mean, a sort of "opacity envelope" for audio, could be interesting.

    Nice, I just skimmed over it. It was too long and generally too consistent with my own feelings to read in its entirety, but when I did skip around it seemed to be pretty reasonable.

Question: Don't you think it might be time to close the tracker on the forum? Newbs still don't read warnings and post stuff that's not confirmed in the forums first. Perhaps put a post count limit on who can use the tracker?

    Yeah, I agree that we are definitely not using it to its potential. We'll see.

    Whoa whoa easy there. I have my moments, but I wouldn't call them Bieber-esque! Hopefully.

Question: Ok, what are your apache/PHP/mysql/etc web site ideas :)
Asked by navian (78.130.223.x) on July 7 2015, 8:26am
Reply on July 8 2015, 12:31pm:
    Here's one: a crowd-sourced database of all media (TV/movies/music/books), with links to access via all services (netflix/amazon/itunes/bittorrent/etc), and the ability for each user to rate content for themselves. Then, you could search: "show me the top 5 users (anonymized presumably) who like and dislike the same TV programs that I do, and show me their top-rated movies that I haven't rated" etc.

Question: are you for or against legalization of recreational marijuana? and why
Asked by Chett (198.178.117.x) on July 7 2015, 2:16am
Reply on July 8 2015, 12:27pm:
    I'm completely anti-war-on-drugs. No question. As for recreational marijuana, I have no real opinion (not really against it, other than generally disliking the smell of people smoking it).

Question: What's your default state of happiness? Is your natural state the majority of the time one of being a jovial guy, a worried guy, an anxious guy, a stressed guy? Did it change at all from coming into wealth?
Asked by Will (107.203.156.x) on July 6 2015, 7:17pm
Reply on July 8 2015, 12:26pm:
    If I had to pick one of them, I'd say jovial I suppose? Maybe a better version is "chill". I don't think it's changed much, other than general getting-older-type-effects.

Question: Does the "tone" of feedback/requests impact your desire to act on it? Or do you just take whats relevant and discard the "noise"?
Asked by Slint (69.172.149.x) on July 5 2015, 6:24am
Reply on July 5 2015, 8:29pm:
    Of course! How couldn't the tone/delivery of feedback affect how the feedback is received? Having said that, clarity and thoughtfulness of the feedback is probably more important than tone, but it all matters.

Question: Do you want to make a Android or IOS app?
Asked by KoderZ (221.141.34.x) on July 4 2015, 3:44pm
Reply on July 5 2015, 8:29pm:
    I've made some iOS apps for personal use, but haven't bothered with going through the hoops to get them published (especially since they would just be lost in the app store anyway).

Question: Dou you have fresh new ideas for software? Because i am stuck and dying, can't think of anything.
Asked by navian (78.130.223.x) on July 1 2015, 12:04pm
Reply on July 3 2015, 1:38pm:
    Occasionally, but they all tend to be services rather than pure software, and require a lot of busy work... so laziness and procrastination prevail! If you want ideas for a apache/PHP/mysql/etc web site, let me know...

    No, the show -- I don't really care to read the books, I vastly prefer science fiction to fantasy. Really enjoying Iain M. Banks' Culture series, which schwa recommended to me.
