working at higher resolution (4K) for future-proofing

Hi gang, I wondered if I could ask people's opinions and advice about resolution? Here's my first question: …I usually work in HD (1920x1080), which was a big step up for me last year from working at a lower resolution. However, I’m starting to wonder if I should be thinking bigger to future-proof m...

Layer Blend Modes

Hey guys! I'm excited to be using v6 of Arena and i'm just getting to know it now :) One thing i'd specifically like to ask for, is to have a number of specific blend modes i can assign buttons to for each layer. In v5 there were 3 assignable buttons for favourite blend modes for each layer, and i w...

loading bar showing over all triggered clips

Hi gang, I'm using windows 10, Arena 5.4. In the last cople of days i've found that when i've triggered clips in my deck, the horizontal bar which comes up to show a clip is loading stays permanently visible over the clip thumbnail. The clips are still triggering as normal but the line doesn't go aw...

Re: Avenue 5.1.3 Black background not working when using Multi task

Hi Joris,

Thanks for your helpful reply,
It's useful to know the reason for the change.

If you do add parameters to blend modes that would be an interesting development!

For now, i'll just use a different blend mode..

Cheers!
Suzy :)

Avenue 5.1.3 Black background not working when using Multi task

Hi, This is an obscure one i know, but I use my clips on one layer without an active alpha channel and usually use the Darken blend mode. I've been using the multi task mode for the opacity of some of my effects. In Avenue 5.1.2 even when the effect opacity is at 0.50 the black background covers the...

Re: deck slider control by touch screen or midi controller slider

Hi theLABVisuals, thanks again for your clever insights :) the coffee is obviously working! ;) i tried the layer MIDI move arrow as you suggested (i hadn't noticed that before!), and it did work, but as you say it was loading up clips as i scrolled through which wasn't ideal. So i decided to go with...

Re: using one large deck

Hiya, Thanks, that's an extremely helpful response! I have a touch screen (it's great!) so i trigger my clips by touching the screen with my finger so it's really intuitive. Your suggestion to create preview triggers is a really interesting way to navigate a long deck, thanks! Very kind of you to po...

using one large deck

Hi gang, Is there any reason why it would be bad to have all my clips in one massive deck instead of in a few separate decks? I feel that it would give me more creative freedom to have them all available and inter-mixable. I have a windows 10 PC with 16 GB ram and a Nvidia 860 graphics card. Thanks!...

deck slider control by touch screen or midi controller slider

I'm using a PC laptop with a touchscreen. It's great fun for loading clips from the deck while playing live. However i often find it difficult to control the slider along the bottom of the deck because it's a little too thin to easily grab with the fingers. Is there any easier way to control it, oth...
