N14 - How can I turn off selected event colour change?

+1. Please

+1

Please make it an optional Preference.

What bothers me more is the fader, which we now have to use to adjust the volume of the selected event. Well, and black, of course.

Not really. You can easily adjust the volume without using the fader. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDKKo7wV_us

Thank you! I saw all this and tried to do it, but I absolutely could not do it!! I do not understand how it makes the cursor slow down on the fader and adjust at any place of the event!! If possible, please provide more details, because I am not strong enough in English!!

How does Modifiers Keys participate in the setup process?

@vocalcoua

To be able to edit the event volume without the fader; If you go to the preferences, under “tool modifiers” go to the “select tool” and set a key combination for “Edit Velocity”. It’s a bit weirdly named but that will then allow you to hold those keys you select, for instance command+shift and use the right mouse button to adjust the volume of the event.

Hope this helps

Oh yes! Magic happened! Thank you so much!!

Sam, and yet my left mouse button works. You probably just made a mistake.

+1 please make Colour Inversion optional again

I’m afraid that you’ll have to get used to it.

During the development stage of Nuendo 14, it was planned to get rid of the red outline. (Technical reasons)
All kind of configurations have been tested and either it broke the workflow of the Post Production users, or it became a problem for Cubase users. (Who are opposed to the red outline)
Change one thing, another got broken …
Long story short, Steinberg (and the testers) did a tremendous effort to search for the best compromise which was within the technical possibilities.

I know for sure (I have been on top of this for months) that this is the best compromise.

Thanks for the info, Fredo.

The most frustrating thing about it for me is how ‘blurry’ the waveform becomes when selected. The Waveform Brightness and Waveform Outline Intensity settings, for me, made Nuendo the absolute best for editing. Now it’s gone - I wish we could get it back.

Not sure I understand.




I guess you work with different settings.

Hi Sam, I just tried doing this and when I click the modifiers I see the double headed arrow for velocity adjustment but as soon as I click with the mouse I get the sub-menu pane with Tools-Processes-Plugins, etc, yet it is not being flagged as a conflict when I assigned the Mod Keys. Any ideas?

Yeah, we do. A few generations back they introduced this option (pic 1), which was and has been fantastic. Now it looks like this (pic 2).
I’ll try your black waveform for a while a see how it works for me.


That’s really a shame Fredo. So basically the Nuendo users are now the victim of what Cubase users want? I am sure the people at Steinberg do their best to find the best possible solution, but I think there are many N14 users, (including me) that find the black background annoying. Why can’t this be like it was in N13? Did that have negative consequences for Cubase users?

I’m sure that you and your team find this the best solution. But obviously many N14 users disagree on that. And sure, I know, every change takes some time to get used to. (remember the mixer GUI change from N12 to N13??). But I hope Steinberg takes the comments from N14 users regarding this issue in serious consideration.

Exactly.

It’s not gone. It’s in Preferences>Event Display>Audio.

I know. But, when you click the event it inverts the colour… Check the pics above. Before it stayed the same, but with a red border.

That’s not what I said, and that’s not how it is.
Keeping the red outline (in the previous implementation) was not an option, because it technically put a stop on other things.
So a new red outline needed to be “made” which now is compatible with the Cubase version. It’s good practice that both Nuendo & Cubase are created from the same branch.
So once more: It was a technical problem that needed a solution for both Nuendo & Cubase.
