After a good month of using Journalist PRO every week I have these suggestions to make this product better and more competitive with the current marketplace of DAWs.

- Ability Save session as template
- Clock removable and visible when in another app
- Ability to make individual tracks different heights
- Makers 1 and 2 should not be in/out
- I should be able to drop a marker in the tracks playback/record area even if the “Marker” window is highlighted. This is VERY important.
- ability to delete ALL markers Select all markers to delete
- Shuffle trim and Region trim should work on all linked tracks
- In/Out should be manipulatable using Shift + click (which is easily programed into multi-button mice)
- While tracks are linked, a selection in one region should also select the same region in all tracks and Shift + End should work on all linked tracks. So if I click one region on track 1, that same area should be selected on all linked tracks. That way when I delete an area the spacing/layout of all tracks remains consistent.
- Ability to shift + click two markers to highlight and bounce only what's between those markers
- The volume/gain indicator on each track should have a crosshair or other indicator to easily see that the level is at zero or not.
- When double + clicking on a Marker, the playhead/selection should jump to the middle of the screen.
- When selecting a region with the arrow keys, the beginning of the selection should jump to the middle of the screen.
- When zooming in/out the playhead or beginning of selected region should stay in the middle of screen.
- Ability to re-locate a chapter pin by double clicking it’s time locator and entering the time code.

Three things:
1. The first 2 markers used always have an "In/Out" designation. That means that all my sessions that have markers will begin with Marker 3. Kind of silly, no? The "In/Out" selection would better be available only in Edit mode, or when I consciously drag over a selection. Then, if it were available, I could preview the edit by playing it when I hit the spacebar. Then I could Commd+X if I wanted it deleted.

2. If a person accidentally clicks on the "Markers" window when recording OR playing they can no longer drop a marker. This is very annoying. Hugely annoying. Massively annoying. Fantastically annoying. Either disable that, or create a new function that allows me to drop a marker using the Enter or Return key.... whenever I want and no matter what part of the workspace window is highlighted.

3. When I double click on a marker, make the waveform jump to that marker. If I'm double clicking on it I clearly wish to go to that location.

Ever since Avid's move to a subscription based ownership model I've been trying out DAWs to take over from ProTools. I do a lot of work producing radio programs so Hindenburg caught my interest. I just downloaded the Trial and am pretty impressed with Hindenburg's easy interface. I figured out most things in a few clicks and only had to look up a couple of things... BUT here are a couple ideas that would make my life easier.
1) the ability to hide tracks. I like to use a Master channel for my metering and limiting plug-ins. But once I've set them I don't need the Master track taking up real estate in the workspace.
2) A separate mixer window. Seems like a no brainer.

First, I love your iPhone app and use it all the time. I am not a journalist, but a musician, and I find your app the easiest to use for getting ideas down quickly. The scrubbing is great amongst many other features.

However, there are a few things I would love to see.

* in IOS 10 the interface is not correct and has some artifacting around the playback line

* MOST IMPORTANT: Able to custom name audio files especially for easy ID in iTunes file sharing. I can rename Sessions in the Sessions window, but those file names do not carry through to the root files names and you end up with names like "2015-01-06 12-18-16 Files" where it is impossible to tell what the files have been renamed to.

I am aware that I could "Share" the file, but that adds an extra step, takes time and takes up space on the device. I really want to be able to just open up File Sharing in iTunes and transfer the files with the custom names.

I know it's the competition, but Apogee MetaRecorder is capable of doing this. Perhaps check it out.

* Able to rename files in Favorites.

* Able to rearrange order in Favorites

* Able to record in stereo, mono or dual mono.
I have a Zoom H6 and Fostex AR101 which I sometimes use as an audio interface. They can output stereo and/or mono, dual mono, but the recorder only records in stereo. An option for record format would be nice.

* EQ would be nice since there's compression

* When Sharing, enable select of multiple sessions to do a bulk share/output. Currently one at a time. Too time consuming.

Thanks, John

Hi there, I just started using Hindenburgh Pro since joining Annie Fredrickson, who I believe you met when you were touring Australia. Very sleek and powerful and I enjoy using it. But I have a couple of suggestions that may make it a bit easier to use- requiring fewer clicks and adjustments. Apologies if the functionality is already there and I simply haven't discovered it. Or if they are just habits I've picked up from using other software, and I just need to get more used to Hindy.
All the best, Mic

• Allow one to add a group to another group so these are nested (as they are in Microsoft Powerpoint). It becomes frustrating when you need to tweak the levels for one group but you have to ungroup it to do so. And if the group previously contains many clips on many channels, it is very tedious going back and subgrouping them every time.

• All one to shift-select a particular clip within a group to trim/edit gain etc (as one does in Illustrator). Currently you can UN-SELECT a clip from a group but this isn’t very useful. And having to ungroup is painstaking as mentioned above.

• Currently when you insert a split into some grouped clips and delete one of them, then the other becomes ‘orphaned’ from the group. This is frustrating as it requires the old ungroup-regroup rigmarole again. (are you detecting a common theme here?)

• If I have two clips grouped together and I want to fade in evenly across both of them- but the fade tool only applies across on clip at a time.

• Sometimes it’s easy to accidentally trim a clip by accident when you really just wanted to move it (especially when you are zoomed out and the clips are small, or part of a big group). It would be nice to be able to LOCK any further edits to a clip.

• An example might be when you’re zoomed into a section to make some fine edits and you’re sliding blocks around, but outside the area you’re viewing the blocks are sliding over each other and cancelling each other. (in Audacity the blocks will only slide as far as the next one, rather than sliding over the top of each other).

• Sometimes at a late stage in editing, you want to cut some audio from a vocal track, and have all the other groups on all the other layers fall in. Of course you can select the region across all tracks before cutting it, but

• By default set white playhead in one spot and keep returning to it (like Audacity). This makes iteasier to fine tune edits using the cursor keys rather than mouse placement. I realise that one can use a Mark in a similar way, but this involves extra keystrokes and again, the imprecision of the mouse placement.

• Some mp3 won’t import. Something to to do with the metadata? I was able to work around by importing and exporting out of iTunes after changing format. E.g. http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Rebecca_Foon/Live_At_CKUT_on_Montreal_Sessions/02_Hearts_Mend_Prelude
