Change voice shortcut?

josk
Hi!

The workflow of the EssenceFM would be sped up quite a bit if there was a shortcut for changing the currently edited voice in a patch, when you're in the voice editor. This would eliminate the need to go back and forth.

Or maybe there is one already?

Thank you!

One suggestion for UI:

The Dec/Inc buttons do nothing when you're editing a voice and don't have a field selected. That could be the place where you can increment/decrement the currently selected voice in a patch.

I think it could be dangerous to have that shortcut, if you accidentally press the buttons voices will be switched and you'll lose all the undo/redo history.
Maybe with a combination of buttons, like Voice + Inc/Dec?

Right, didn't take into account the undo history aspect.

Perhaps the shortcut could be an optional setting, configured in the global settings? The Voice Inc/dec also definitely makes sense, but as a slight minus, is a two-handed operation.
