Major Things not in this version at the Moment but coming…
below is a rough list of old things we know you be missing and just want to assure that they are coming still along with many other things still not in the BETA 

 

  • Lots all Metadata Editing features besides Details Panel Editing
  • Burn In and Text File Import Panels
  • Plugin Rack on Process Panel  (We need to make a VST3 Library still and will take time)
  • Collections
  • The CPM (the Manager page is the only part currently added)

Other Road Mapped Features
Some might come after the first release as we have already bitten off more then we can chew ATM.

 

  • Split files flagged in Database while Importing and will be grouped in Results List with an expander arrow
  • Ability to make changes to the Database and write to files later.
  • License Pooling via our new system as we are ditching CodeMeter in this version.
  • Markers: Searchable Marker Tags in the Database
  • Pop-out larger timecode window with Spectrum Analyzer
  • Eight User definable Database [fields] (This will come after the first release)
  • Midi Triggering and Midi CC and maybe OSC Support (Standard and Higher)
  • Faders levels on the QAP mixer.  (Ultra)
  • Active Directory Support
  • Screen Reader Support for Blind users

Dropped Technology in this Version
below is some tech we dropped like a hot potato and will not return ever.

  • ReWire: We  have our own basehead Connect Plugin to replace this horrible old tech.
  • CodeMeter (We will make our own pool-able licenses system that is lighter and more modern)
  • VST2 (Might be Replaced with VST3 in this version)
  • The Browser Page: We have the ability to Explode Folder inside ‘Imports’ now to replace this.
  • BaseHead Server (cubeSQL): We will also make our own in house integrated version that works seamlessly and is more WFH friendly then the current way.
  • RAM Database:  Not needed now cuz default searching is way faster then a RAM DB Search in old BH.
  • Spotting to Generic Non-Hardwired DAWs. Basically now, if they do not have newer modern API, SDK or Scripting language the DAW is no longer supported besides via Drag and Drop.
  • ‘Auto-Switching Paths’:  We decided it’s not worth porting this code since it more for non-hardwired DAW’s but since we dropped support for those well……you know.  😉

Not seeing something you hoped for?

If might still be coming still as the above is not complete, but if it was never put in the RequestBase OR maybe it never got upvoted much is another reason.  All Feature Requests should start in the RequestBase.
