no roadmap... maybe i should work on a space-map ;D given the feedback so far it might be a good idea focus on MIR and optimise audio analysis and don't fall for the audio plugin trap. thanks for your feedback, very much appreciated!

i love tackers but audionaut is not a tracker. it's a timeline-based multitrack editor in the Sound Designer II tradition: regions and playlists rather than patterns and pattern rows.

thanks for jumping in and clarifying. audiomass is very impressive and i don't dare to do web since i am a c++ dinosaur ;)

it's a personal preference, i have been using JUCE for decades and it's been very reliable and stable with a well maintained forum. To be honest, i didn't even look the other way.

thanks and agreed, the pipeline side is easy to miss.. i ll put it in a more prominent place in the README

Thanks! Regions yes, labels not yet.

Good idea on features.md. The manual has it all, but a one-page list is easier to find, for people and for LLMs. I'll add it.

let's hope audacity and audionaut will happily co-exist and learn form each other.

an interesting use case... the analysis could detect rhythmic or not and then edit the rhythmic parts away. i will look into, added to my backlog. thanks for your feedback!

to be honest i was not planning to add features like that but it's very tempting. Supporting OSC is easy but a proper and useful mapping of parameters will take more brain work. i used OSC way back with PD and Reaktor.. the network layer adds latency with is ok with video sync... i have to revisit, it's years back.

thanks for your feedback, i added this topic to my backlog.

the audio callback is lock free and the dsp is vectorised. i think you can expect very good performance. there is a dsp load meter implemented that displays spikes in the load. anyways... adding benchmarks is in my backlog.

thanks so much for your feedback!

- context menu file import is a no brainer, added to my backlog.

- keyboard shortcut for split is command+e

- automatic crossfade when dragging usually works with the shift modifier key, added to my backlog

- envelops: this feature was requested by another user already, so top of my backlog.

- effects... yes, of course. i will not implement the in place processing but insert and send effect like it's done regular DAW. so stay tuned.
