1. Automating Panning, Effects, and Plugins

   Hello,

   I would like to request that you add automation support for panning, effects, and plugins. I am upgrading from an app on my iPad because of limitations, and I got Hindenburg free with my Vocaster Two, so it was the obvious upgrade. It is so awesome to see a DAW designed specifically with podcasters in mind, and the lack of automation for anything other than gain is pretty much my only gripe. I make a non-fiction podcast with a lot of music and an audio-drama podcast, both of which require me to frequently adjust things like panning, reverb, pitch, etc. throughout the episode.

   I saw there was a request for automating plugins 10 years ago (https://rebrand.ly/HindyAutomation), and your response was that there could be issues with the points moving around with the audio and simplicity, if I understood correctly. I have not tested automation on many other DAWs, but one thing my previous DAW does to solve the moving issue is that the automation points behave much like other audio clips: you can move them individually, select multiple to move, and select them and audio clips to move. (I have attached a video of me using the automation feature on my previous DAW, in case that is helpful.) I believe a possible solution for Hindenburg could be making automation movements similar to audio clip selection and track linking: a setting that you can turn on for the automation points to automatically move with the audio above them, and then having the ability to move and select the points like audio clips when it's turned off. As for being confusing or overwhelming, selecting which automations to display and having the option to simply hide or show all automations would fix that.

   I hope you can implement this so I won’t have to find another DAW (which I really don't want to do because Hindenburg is amazing) or use workarounds that result in having way too many tracks.

   I appreciate you taking the time to read this request.

   Thanks,

   Devon

2. Keyboard toggle for linked tracks

   I'd love to be able to deactivate and reactivate linked tracks from the keyboard.

   My editing process is about a 50/50 split between linked tracks being a help and being a hindrance, and not only is deactivating it slow, but reactivating it currently involves redefining it one mouse click at a time.

6. Please add support for the new universal DAWproject session exchange format - it's free and open-source

   The new DAWproject format can transfer entire sessions to/from different DAW platforms, making it easier and more efficient to collaborate with people via Hindenburg. Unlike the outdated OMF/AAF formats, DAWproject includes audio and MIDI along with volume/pan/sends, fades, clip gain, warping, pitch transposition, generic EQ/comp/gate/limiter settings for built-in inserts, plugin settings and automation data. DAWformat is also a convenient way to archive sessions for storage.

   It's free and open-source, and all the necessary information is documented on GitHub here: https://github.com/bitwig/dawproject#readme

   Thanks for your consideration, and please vote and comment if you support this idea!

7. Maintain Word Manuscript Formatting in Narrator

   Or support html exported from Word.
   Manuscripts imported from Word lose important formatting (like italics). Which is not usable.
   Typical HTML files and filtered HTML exports from Word have to be manually edited for Hindenburg to import them due to the tags (meta, style, class, etc.) and characters that aren't supported (em dashes, smart quotes, ellipses, etc.). All of this is wasted effort, and not the job of narration.
   Without the capability to accurately represent a manuscript from the author/publisher, this can't be taken seriously as a professional narration product.

8. Allow for functional mouse button programming.

   Some DAWs allow for customizable mouse button programming, but apparently Hindenburg doesn't. I attempted to program my spare buttons to clear, cut, and press escape to greatly speed up my editing process, but the software doesn't seem to allow them to work. This would help me tremendously.

9. Clipboard fixes for 2.0

   I've gotten to the part of the edit where it's nearly impossible to proceed
   with the new Clipboard. The most central problem is when I try and paste a
   clip from the edit into a particular bin, it won't let me. It pastes
   SOMEWHERE, but not necessarily in the bin I need it to be in. Then I have
   to do a search for it, and the serach result still doesnt tell me where
   that byte is (which group it mysteriously saved to), so i have to drag it
   into the edit and THEN try pasting it into the right group. This is making
   it impossible to proceed with this show because I can't organize my
   material. I understand that new versions are inevitably glitchy at
   first...but the sheer number of problems here is pretty intense...and some
   are nearly impossible to work around. So when I ask if you plan to fix
   these things and get a one sentence answer...essentially, 'we'll look into
   it.' I don't really know how to interpret that. Does that mean you'll be
   fixing these things in a week? A year? Is there a schedule for these fixes,
   updates?

   I've really appreciated Hindenburg. It's been my daily companion for the
   better part of a decade. I'm hoping these problems can get solved and if
   they are, I'd love to have some idea when that will be. Here are the issues
   I've found in the last couple days...(a few additional to the last list):

   When you try and paste a section into a NEW clipboard bin from the edit
   session, it instead pastes it into the group you were working in before and
   you have to go looking for it. Actually I’m not even certain WHERE it
   pastes them. I know that if you do a global search for the file it comes
   up, but doesn’t tell you what group it’s in, so you have to drag the clip
   on to the edit board and then try and copy it into the right group again,
   which doesn't always work.

   Also, it’s unclear how to get BACK to the general clipboard menu from the
   search. You have to actually delete the search words to get back to the
   main clipboard frame but that’s not intuitive.

   Then if you maximize the clipboard, there’s no button to minimize it again
   without closing out of the clipboard entirely.

   When you try to rename a file in a clipboard group, you double click on
   name, the whole name is highlighted, but then it doesn’t let you
   ‘command-arrow’ to auto get to end or beginning of name. you have to click
   with cursor. That wasn’t true of old version. And if you mistakenly delete,
   you can’t control z and get the name back.

   There is no way to jump around in the byte without dragging into the edit.
   Have to listen from beginning, and all through.

   If you delete a file in a clipboard, cannot Control Z and get it back

   There’s no way to move a clip from one bin to another without dragging. If
   I have 50 clips in a bin, that means dragging it down and down and down til
   I can pull it into another. Should be a way to cut and copy

   No way to select multiple clips and move together to new group.

   The promotional video shows a user dragging a segment from the edit into
   clipboard. Not working.

   I don't know how hard this is to design, but it would be nice if I could
   pull clipboard groups out to different parts of screen so I could see items
   in each at the same time, instead of stacked. So if I’m working with
   ‘Interviews’ and ‘Doc tape’, and each bin has MANY bytes, I don’t have to
   endlessly scroll. Just more options with how Clipboard groups live on the
   screen.

   If previewing clip, can’t leave program or clip stops playing. I often take
   notes as I’m listening to a clip but now I have to drag into work edit to
   listen and take notes. This was not true in other version.

   I've gotten to the part of the edit where it's nearly impossible to proceed
   with the new Clipboard. The most central problem is when I try and paste a
   clip from the edit into a particular bin, it won't let me. It pastes
   SOMEWHERE, but not necessarily in the bin I need it to be in. Then I have

10. Time code in the transcription

    The only one I miss are time codes in the transcription. I'd like to know, if there is any way to get the transcript with time codes. I actually get the script only as a very long text block without any time codes or even any paragraphs. That makes it difficult to orientate in the script of a audio file with, lets say, a lenght ot 15 or 20 minutes. It would also help, if there were different paragraphes for different speakers in the audio file.

11. Fix the Pro 2 Clipboard

    So I downloaded the new Pro 2 so that I could get more functionality out of
    the clipboard, which I rely on intensively. In one morning of editing, here
    are the glitches I've found. I write this to you because I RELY on
    Hindenburg every day, and I want to keep going with it, but these weird
    glitches make me lose faith in the program. I'll probably buy this after
    the trial ends, but I'd really like to know if these things will be
    fixed...and I worry there will be lots more glitches to come.

    Hindy Clipboard glitches

    When you try and paste a section into a NEW clipboard bin from the edit
    session, it instead pastes it into the category you were working in before
    and you have to go looking for it.

    But when you do global search for a file, it comes up but doesn’t tell you
    what clipboard 'bin’ it’s in, and it’s unclear how to get BACK to the
    general clipboard menu. You have to actually delete the search words to get
    back to the main clipboard frame but that’s not intuitive.

    Then if you maximize the clipboard, there’s no button to minimize it again
    without closing out of the clipboard entirely.

    cursor. That wasn’t true of old one. And if you mistakenly delete the
    words, you can’t control z and get the name back. This matters because that
    particular name is associated often with a logging document.

12. Remember log in password in the software.

    It would be nice if you could provide any of the following solutions:
    - save password and automatically log us in
    - allow us to use our password manager
    - any other option that doesn't require a log in as frequently as it's required now, which seems like a weekly thing

13. Let the spacebar play audio while plug ins are open

    A welcomed feature would be to allow playback to be started and stopped with the space bar, even when plugins are open. It is frustrating to need to quickly stop when I'm adjusting a plugin setting but having to mouse to the actual button.

14. Audio syncing

    I will have two stems - one for each mic of the two presenters for my podcast. Obviously, the other's mic will pick up sound when the other presenter is talking. If these files go out of sync at all it can be an absolute nightmare to manually resync them (depending on how early I catch it). Adobe Premire has a syncing feature that will match the audio to the video. But I'm wondering if Hindenberg can have a feature that syncs selected stems. It would be a dream!

15. SRT. file phrase detection

    I'm importing a Hindenburg generated .srt file to overlay the Hindenburg recorded audio and transcribed subtitles onto video but finding the Hindenburg exported .srt file has too many words per timestamp.

    Can you set word count or ideally phrase or "chunk" detection so the subitles are shorter.

16. More Searchable Manuscript

    The manuscript search function isn't very useful when limited to one word. It would be much more useful if we could search for phrases and entire sentences so we can quickly find the piece of audio we're looking for.

17. Pop up window for not being able to transcribe merged clips

    I see that there is a message that Merged clips can’t be transcribed.  I would like to have an alert pop up that states this track can’t be transcribed because it contains merged tracks.  The current popup doesn’t make that piece of information clear and appears like the traditional transcription pop up.

18. Question, really...

    I read a recent review (James Cridland, PodNews, Feb. 2023) in which he was very impressed with his beta version of Pro v2. Congratulations! He mentioned that the final release was expected to include a feature for reducing/eliminating mouth sounds and breaths.

    As someone interested in adopting Narrator to record a three-book project, I'm wondering whether that feature may be included SOON in Narrator. Currently, the website description says that I must use an external plug-in for minimizing mouth sounds.

    As you know, this would be a HUGE boost to productivity. I hope you will include this feature directly in Narrator in the near future.

    Many thanks,
    Charlie

19. Flag duplicates when importing clipboards

    Hey Hindy Team,
    I'd love for Hindy to flag duplicates when importing a clipboard from another session. My current problem is that when I do that, many of the tracks are duplicates. Instead of recognizing that and giving me the option to not import duplicates, Hindy just imports all of them. I'd love to not have to comb through and import clips from a specific session individually, but also don't love having a repetitive clipboard that's hard to sort though.
    Thanks for your hard work!

20. Expanding music report for different types of content

    The music report is AMAZING. It seems that Hindy detects what is music and what isnt.I would benefit greatly from functionality that allows me to decide what I need to report on. Perhaps the ability to report by track or by source file. I have several use cases, but the most significant need comes from the fact that I pay for licensing of archival material, and seconds really impact the cost! So reporting on this would be amazing.
