When you're updating a few ideas. One might be pop up help files where you can hover over a function and it gives more detail and/or tells you how to interact with it. Another might be to be able to label the pads. Cheers

Good suggestions +1

How about links to YouTube videos in the UI? You'd right click on a control, click the link, and then a YouTube video is loaded in a browser? Good / bad idea?

I suppose I could do the same with links to the pdf.

I think the link to the PDF section and the YouTube video is a great idea.

I copied sections from the PDF I found most relevant into Microsoft OneNote and then added related Youtube links so everything is in one place.

+1 definitely for the manual links or a tooltip.

I won't speak for anyone else, but I hate watching a video for reference material. I think they're great for tutorials, but if you're trying to figure out which knob to turn to fix x problem...not so much.

I’m a big manual guy myself. Whenever I’m evaluating a new product I go looking for the manual. But I feel I’m a dying breed.

The eDRUMin is a complex piece of software/hardware. You can’t exactly explain all the controls and how they relate with simple bubble tips. I think it will become a maintenance nightmare keeping links in the software matched up with the PDF. I’d prefer you concentrate of new features.

Ya, maintaining links is definitely a concern for me too. I think I'll do it anyway, though.

Yup, hate videos unless it is something that truly needs to be visualized, real life or otherwise.

Tooltip with summary text and a "more" link to the relevant section in the manual please and thank you.

I only hate videos when it takes 5 minutes to get to the point.
