I honestly loved (!) the created melody, but stumbled across a couple UX issues. Most of those, I think, could be fixed with smarter defaults and some tweaks. Excellent work, though. Would love to see how it develops...
During creation of a new track:
- Why do I need a description?
- Why do I need a name, actually?
- Why is there only Latin and Empty available?
- Edit: Just realised that the Latin track is hardcoded?
During editing:
- I was not sure whether / how my actions affect the tracks / track items. (One remedy could be showing the actual waveform of the created sounds in the editor instead of a placeholder waveform.)
- Creating a new instrument — I found the "Instrument Sound Pack" dropdown menu only by accident after some clicking. It would be great to see what type of instrument I'm dealing with without having to click on the instrument itself. (Maybe map it directly to the displayed name? I'd rather have Acoustic Bass 1 to 4 instead of a bunch of "Unnamed Instrum...")
- Some actions have no effect until you restart the playback (e.g. changing speed of a track item).
- Some actions stop the playback (e.g. changing the instrument type)
