When I use external audio source and edit and fine-tune 50 or more modules in a scene and decide later on to use an audio file instead of external audio, it would be nice if I can adjust it's volume beneath the 0. Because the audio db's from some files is much louder than the external input. Then I have to do so many fine tuning again to the modules.
We want the same thing , although the main reason for my original request http://magicmusicvisuals.com/forums/vie ... t=228#p807 was to adjust for the difference between individual music tracks rather than between inputs. I find the peak-to-average volume ratio varies significantly between tracks even of the same genre.
Actually I have a further suggestion: In addition to +/- volume, I would like a graphic equaliser with bands to match the "Freq. Range" options.
I often use one or more "Freq. Range"s within a scene as well as general "Volume" responsive elements.
I find that the relative levels of frequency ranges can change significantly between tracks, especially if the genre is different.
In a live situation it would be much easier to re-tune scenes if the frequency balance of the input audio could be adjusted within Magic.
30 bands graphic EQ is in my opinion minimal sufficient starting at:
25 Hz
31,5
40 (When the music is mastered very well everything below 40 is thrown out especially for boom boom music )
50
63
80
100
125
160
200
250
315
400
500
630
800
1000
1250
1600
2000
2500
3150
4000
5000
6300
8000
10000
12500
16000
20000 Hz
An EQ which will fit in a separate module so you could patch it (before) to any other module?
Or the possibility to patch from individual frequencies of a master EQ module? Without affecting the original audio signal off course. So you can mute totally or lift frequencies very precise and eliminate rumble which affect visuals unwanted.

Cool. This would be very useful. A few thoughts on the subject:
- 30-band spectrum display would be helpful to show level in each freq band of a particular input.
- Allow multi-select of adjacent bands of 30-band graphic to facilitate quick adjustment.
- Option of a parametric EQ. Quicker to tune for boosting/cutting a particular frequency range when a track changes.
Otherwise it's quite time consuming to adjust a graphic if each 1/3-octave needs separate level setting.
