Refinement - what's the use for it?

I did not know that…it makes a bizarre unselection…interesting

Ooh, I also did not know this one…that will be helpful

So amplitude to a great degree
I hadn’t been using it…that will help too :slight_smile:

Reading your tread, very interesting, seems to me that SL 11 pro it’s more complicate then the objectif to simplify all things with modules.
I was on the opinion with one click everything will be done; No, I was to optimiste; I was wrong.
Definitely a lot of possibility, so needs time to discover everything :sleepy:

Yeah its definitely not a “all things simpler” maker, but a “otherwise impossible things, possible” maker.

absolutely…SL11 is game changer…nowhere to go but to improve as far I can foresee; thanks @Robin_Lobel for this incredible tool

OK, just to update on this…
I have spent a bit of time now with the Magic Wand tool… Again, I find the selection tools which have no dependencies on source material are giving me a better result. Selection Brush, Rectangular, Elliptical, Time, & Freq Range, Lasso, Poly, Transfer I’m getting great results with those. And all my editing is after running Unmix Noisy Speech (which renders incredible isolation work I’d say is impossible for a single human to perform). Then clean everything up/ cover with clone tool and sometimes heal.

The selection tools with some automated behaviours Magic Wand, Freq & Harm, Transient I have found foibles and just prefer the free form of the other tools to these. Magic Wand I find to wander off into the ether of amplitude…another tool I find me needing to undo as much as it selects.

What would really enhance with Selection Brush and Transfer would be some form (sq or rnd), size, aspect ratio, hardness and transfer percentage presets for the selection area of Brush and Transfer as a great deal of time is spent adjusting those sliders when editing.

SL11 is a deep pool full of wonderful capability.

Man, I probably spend most of my inefficient time in SL with this one thing: the selection brush parameters of any selection tool. My main use is three tools: Selection Brush, Transfer and Clone Stamp. If I could have 3-10 preset shapes for each of those tools, it would save me enormous amounts of time…I mean a couple months in a year!

Just a little bump from my early teething that is still a time drain :slight_smile:

Hmmm, interesting, how about a stamp tool with arbitrary shape?
Define the shape in a separete edit. Skaling and fading should also be adjustable.

To define the shape of fading, there are several methods possible, see here:

I’m not concerned with fades here, at all

I typically use 3-5 brush settings for selection tools of which the available parameters work great

I just simply would increase efficiency with some presets for those brush shapes rather than constantly mousing drop-downs and sliders to go between those typically same brush shapes!
