hi
I have the U-Mix44 sound card (2 outputs) so every time I mix a have to prelisten / cue tracks via one of the players - that means I listen to short part of a track to decide wheather i drop that track or not.
...and the history lists also those unused tracks
that is a pity...
there Could be something like "smart list" option to omit track played less then a minute let say

Using the Preview player/feature shouldn't put them in your history.

you are right, it does not, but as I wrote it lists all tracks that I have to preview via one of the decks - the "preview" ( on the right side of the track list) is not available with sound set up for "external mixer cue" ( and I have the U-Mix44 scard)....

True, as long as you don't have a dedicated output for the monitoring it doesn't work. Need an improvement there...

:eek: I think the quickest improvement woukd be to get a sc with additional out put to use the preview player,,not shure if the U-Mix Control Pro 1 or 2 would fit the bill ,, dont use tc vinal., so not shure of the routing for preview ,,know its seyt up for tc with the full ver of Cross :cool: :cool:

Here is the situation
- the preview player is routed to the monitor output.
- the monitor output is not available in external mixer (you're supposed to monitor on the hardware).
- if you monitor in a deck the play count/history increase
- routing the preview player on one of the deck output in external mode can be dangerous (if this output is the deck on air).

I will see with dev what can be done. Played time timer seems to be the easiest for now IMO, but we can debate about it.
