Is anybody making a copy of all the material in the Tutorials Forum
Since the Forum is going away in June, has anyone started to make a copy of all the stuff in the Tutorials forum?I've made copies of some of the tutorial material on the main site, but haven't looked at the Tutorial Forum yet.I'm going to continue copying as much as I can for my own personal use anyway, but if anyone else is doing it, or has already started doing it, please let me know.Maybe we can co-ordinate our efforts. ps can't ..... believe John, would let this happen without so much as a…
Read more…Studio Artist is in Italy!
I was crawling the streets of Matera, Italy today and may have discovered where SA is hiding! (see attached photo). Not meaning to make light of this great, sad mystery. But I just couldn't resist as I try to make sense of what's happening. Losing my connection to SA, Synthetik and John has been a great sadness... and if real, ends a monumental era in my creative life. love,~Victor

"The Overload"! A video with music, from the various experiments I made in Studio Artist with stuff that I have learned in the last few days, from tips and tricks I found by scouring this site and the Synthetik site for tutorials etc. MSG!

Haha I have been trying to stretch the Paint Synthesizer in the…

Hi, here is the video I made back in 2010 for my song "Teenage Tongue Cult".

You mention being able to toggle the visibility of the mask when in selection mode. You can do this now, just turn the mask checkbox in the main operation toolbar off to toggle the mask view off.
Are you asking for a 'marching ants' style selection display option? As opposed to the current gray overlay for non-selected areas approach we currently use.
Yes, marching ants would be an alternative if hiding the gray overlay is programming issue.
Maybe we could add some hot key option to get at what you want. If we made the opacity of the gray overlay user adjustable, would that also make it work better for you?
All of this relates to an individual artist's method of work or process (by hand or more procedural). Masking visibility won't be an issue for many of SA's users. I thought I'd ask for it if it isn't a huge deal.
