Thread: Mixer: instrument types lacking in some styles?

    Default Mixer: instrument types lacking in some styles?

    Hi, just downloaded a song for testing purpose. When looking at its mixer-settings, I found much more types for the clefs than in the song, I created.
    How can I add these variety to my ireal?

    I don't understand your question.

    In the mixer, you can select from available instruments and adjust their relative volumes.
    Not all instrunents are available in all styles.

    Sorry BOB, I now understand: The style determines how many instruments/entries one gets in the mixer.

    My opinion: Bad coding. The standard style (medium swing) just has 4 bass instruments, each of them very quiet/low. If you want to hear the bass, then you have to reduce the loudness of the other instruments. A strong bass is lacking, i.e. "aufgestockter Bass" (enforced bass?) as found in 'rock'.
    Comfortable for us users would be, to allow in the mixer all the instruments available in all styles...

    According to my recent post: Which style at the moment has the most instrument-entries? I would choose this for every new song.

    BTW: ireal is a really helpful app! Nice stuff!
    But: you know the enemy of the good thing? The better thing! ...

    It is all a bit confusing:
    I started to edit a new song yesterday. I chose standard swing style.
    Having read your post I today edited the song and changed the style to rock. But: the mixer-entries did NOT change. That is not logical. It seems, a song keeps the amount of instruments from the first style you chose. That is unsatisfying.

    Changing the [suggested] chart style in the editor, only changes what is written in the upper left corner.

    Selecting different player styles is done in the player controls (not in the editor)
    Different player styles may have different available instrument sounds.
