Delay before count in

[Catfishfiddler]

Would it be possible to add a delay time (for instance 5 seconds) before the lead off starts for a song? I using a fiddle and there’s not enough time to get it under my chin and ready to go using the current count in even when I set it to #2.

You could also insert an "Intro" of some N.C. measures or simply start the song near the end (say, at the last 4 or 8 bars) long press on the desired bar until the play-icon appears, tap it. You'll get the compile-pause, count-in and the "extra" bars before the start at the 1st A-section. You may want to increase the number of player-repeats by 1.

Nothing planned for the next update, sorry. For the very fast songs, you might want to edit the introduction to make it longer.


[Just to explain to others reading this, there are currently 4 settings for the count in the mixer: No count, 1 bar, 2 bars, automatic (1 bar for slower tempos, 2 for faster ones). Unfortunately nothing related to x seconds, or longer than the 2 bars.]

I found out that for most beats, the delay is nearly 2 beats. So if I need to start playing after someone else, say after 32 bars, I give myself a two count lead. When the player reaches his bar 30, I press the button two beats early. In most cases my counting start after saying, “thir-ty two-and…”, I press the button on the third click. It’s not perfect, but close, frustrating as it is. This is to me a major problem, and needs fixed.
