Greetings,

I would find it really convenient to always be able to pan, regardless what tool is selected, by chording space and left-mouse. E.g., even if the zoom tool is selected, pressing space and left-mouse would allow the view to be panned as if one were left-mousing while the move tool (hand icon) is selected. If you've ever used Photoshop, I think you should know what I'm talking about.

I apologize if there is already a way to do this and I just haven't found it.

Hi,

It’d be great to add one octave to the list of smoothing resolutions available in the FR graph.

Also, some kind of a psycho-acoustic scale would be even better. I suggest the Bark scale (Zwicker) where the resolutions go like this :

< 150 Hz : 1 oct
150 - 500 : 1/3 oct
500 - 4 kHz : 1/6 oct
> 4 kHz : 1/3 oct

Zwicker’s work is not about JND in frequency, but about the perception of the resulting level from the accumulation of sounds close to one another in frequency (sounds within the same “critical band”). In other words, it doesn’t mean that one won’t hear the difference, in pitch or level, between two notes a minor third apart played by the bass player; nevertheless, on the overall spectrum, when many sounds combine, a frequency response will be perceived as mostly flat when the above resolution reads it as such, even though a coarser resolution would reveal deviations.

What do others think?

Any way to implement this in Fuzz?

For those interested, the paper that is most often referred to about this (the article that started it all I guess) is:
