Hello Everyone, Alex here:

I'm doing S1 livestreams and I noticed something, I can't detach the Browser from the main workspace, very simple, but very useful, I don't want everyone to see my folders and my presets, also having the browser on my iPad or extra monitor and not on my main window would improve efficiency.

Hope to see this one in the future :)

I'd like this too , either allow floating browser or implement an effects browser in the console window, when using a 2nd screen dragging effects from the arrange window is a real ................. drag!

This is really needed. Now we can detach the mixer and edit window, it will be great to detach Browser.

Yes, I would like to dock the browser on the bottom and see the files in a Windows "list" manner just like we used to in Acid Pro. That would speed up the workflow 100 times faster. I noticed that this request was made in 2017 and Presonus still hasn't implemented it. Just like "Adaptive" grid is really not Adaptive. It stops at 1/16 if thats whats chosen.

It's been five years and it still hasn't been integrated?

Seems like such a good and obvious quality of life improvement...

Really waiting for this PreSonus :)

This is the most important thing that I miss in S1.

It would also be nice to add a sample waveform and the ability to change the pitch in the browser.
This would speed up the search for samples.

Electronic musicians spend most of their time searching for samples. These features are very necessary.
