We would like the ability to add rehearsal markers to a chart template. Intro, verse 1, chorus 2, bridge, solo, post chorus, outro, etc. Also standard rehearsal markers as letters: A, B, C, etc. Perhaps the ability to add a blank text box we could fill out would do?

So I have been building a Beat Note App file dedicated online membership site for all the music I’ve been writing inside beat note (Derick I’ve told you this before and plan to schedule a meeting with you finally very soon!) and I’m about to launch it within the next couple of weeks or so finally! The thing that is pressing me and will for anyone else who plans to sell Beat Note content independently in the future on their own personal webstore or membership site is that we obviously have no way to copyright the material inside the app nor protect it in anyway. The reality is that the beauty of Beat Note App is that we have the freedom to edit files which is simply just precious. The problem is that anyone can literally share beat note files that they purchased from a webstore or whatever with anyone and anytime. I personally have not been able to figure out a way to protect my product links in any way to prevent endless sharing (people please propose any ideas if you have them!) but honestly it’s not even my biggest concern at this point. The actual sharing of my paid content is not a big deal to me anymore as it’s likely to happen a little bit no matter what you try to do. My REAL concern is about someone taking credit for my files and even trying to re-sell them if they truly wanted to invest that time (still not easy). But even more so I just want my works to point to me and my website ultimately so anyone using my beats no almost for a fact at the very least whom actually created this. So this way someone can still recreate what I’ve created (which fundamentally I think is fair game actually) but they simply can’t share my file and take credit for it and pretend they made it. This is why I think we need to be able to embed some sort of WATER MARK into each file. I’m not sure even suggesting an image. I’m actually just suggesting adding a composer text box near the beat tittle text box that can ONLY BE EDITED ON YOUR DEVICE. If shared and downloaded on another device other users will NOT be able to change this. Your author/composer title will be engraved in all of your files when viewed. This would be a fabulous way to get around copyrighting limitations by still allowing us to secure credit for our work so when it’s shared people can clearly see who the author is and search for that. Maybe even a spot for not only “author title” but “author website”. Being able to credit our work I think needs to be implemented very soon especially for anyone trying to sell their work but even for someone teaching with it. Currently our files just show blank no accreditation to an author. This is really significant. Accreditation HAS to be embedded and not be able to be edited. This is the best solution I’ve come up with for a built-in app solution to protect user’s works. Any thoughts or any additional ideas anyone?

The new flams and notation selector is super dope! However, it just hit me that for writing Rudimental based content I need a flam diddle notation as well. With the new selector I can really see the potential now to have all of these additional notations that I’ve mentioned before, and specifically on the snare drum voicing (flam diddles / buzzes / rim shots). Now that you’ve implemented the new selector maybe it will be much easier to add these other notations?

I subscribed hoping I could write out tabs for songs we play in our band. There’s a few things might make it easier that I can’t seem to do I would like to name sections, then copy and paste a full section. I would also like to be able to highlight selected multiple measures and copy/paste them. I also couldn’t find rests.

I’d like the ability to fill out an entire measure automatically with a predefined rhythm for each voice individually, for example all notes on, all notes off, 8th or 16th notes downbeats, 8ths or 16th notes upbeats, or more specific rhythmic patterns, like foot ostinatos and such. That could be a dropdown menu with right clicking on each individual voice (similar to what you have on groove scribe).

Communicating dynamic changes.

Across multiple beats be able to indicate a buzz roll.

As suggested in the ticket about multi-measures copy/paste select multiple measures choose action (i.e. copy / paste / edit) => here EDIT edit => I would think of editing ONE single element (i.e. HiHat, snare, kick => user choice) AT ONCE, for all the selected mesures. Workflow => If you choose Hihat : just display the first measure of the selected ones... modify HH (the other lines should be read only) ... click "Apply" => your new HH pattern is applied to all the selected measures. Same principle applies for kick, snare, and so on... one by one.
