Re: Does the current beatmatcher needs to change?

Once again
I guess for Mixvibes this is "beating a dead horse".
I continue to use Cross 2.6 for gigs and the latest 3.x version for MIDI mapping research.
I would love to start using the new version (3.2 and soon 3.3), however, I continue to be dissapointed in the fact that the major selling point to me (the beatmatcher) has been broken since 3.0. I mean broken in the sense that
1. It is not useful to have all the colors
2. The rendering is no longer an indication of peaks. It is just a halve cut off from the deck waveform.
3. The very clear markers for bet #1 on every bar and beat #1 for the 16 bit cycle are pretty much gone.
I can live with the color schema but the rendering (not done as peaks) and the markers will have to change. This sis my oppinion and I know there are other that share my views completely or partially.
I will continue to support Djs in this forum and doing everything I can to help. It is time for me to look for alternatives or move back to where I was. It is not something I trully want to do but I find that Cross in is current stae is increasingly not satisfying my needs so I am clearly stuck in 2.6 because the waveforms....would love to start using 3.2 and perhaps 3.3 because the new features are good.....will look for an alternative with better "beatmacher like" functionality and better effects.
A response from a Mixvibes Team member would be greatly appreciated.
