User-Settable Defaults for Snippets Probabilities

Posted

Hi,

Currently in a new Arrangement we are given hardwired numbers for Snippets 'Probability for Change' (100%) and 'Probability for Silence' (20%).

I would agree that these numbers seem potentially reasonable if it is taken as a given that they will be hardwired.

However, I would like to suggest that having them be hardwired is not really desirable.

If I know that I want to begin my dice work with  'Probability for Change' (100%) and 'Probability for Silence' (0%) then I (any user) would like to be able to have such a a preference happen by default.

Put another way, having to change my 'Probability for Silence' (20%) to 'Probability for Silence' (0%) every time I start work, for every column, from now until forever is a drag.

I'm not saying my own prefs  (100/0) are more worthy to be enshrined than anyone else's prefs.   

I just saying that people have different prefs, and being able to set them and have them stick as the default will allow bypassing of repeated pointless tedium.

Thanks.

By pure coincidence 'profile' presets are already in the pipeline (based on instrument category)
