I have been playing around with minicontrol, it’s a lot of fun to use.

There’s a few things I would love to see in a next version:

- boolean values getting checkboxes instead of sliders
- scrollwheel control over sliders and/or + and - buttons next to them
- randomisation per section (one for global, one for harp, one for chord, maybe even per subsection)
- ability to lock settings (useful when using the randomisation button, so I don’t lose the general settings when trying a different harp configuration)
- non-base-64 copy/pasting of settings

Hi!  
Thanks a lot for the feature requests!  
There is one that I have trouble understanding: the one about base64. Is it creating problem? I really liked the fact that you can just copy paste settings and avoid another file format, but I’m probably missing something.

Originally I thought/expected the settings to be in the listed order, which would allow me to simply copy/replace the first 27 values with a “known set of good settings” - but it seems they’re in another order. That specific feature request won’t be as useful 🙂
