I would like to see a different way of previewing both visual and sound effects.

My experience on clicking one sound effect, then go to properties and play the sound is time consuming and sometimes a bit frustrating.

Worse is visual effects. Dragging them in the world and watch if you like it.

My suggestions:

  1. Sound Effects:
    Make a list, with a play/pause button, title, duration and favourite the sound effect. Example:

▶️ Woosh_1 0:03 ⭐️
▶️ Woosh_2 0:05
▶️ Boom_1 0:20 ⭐️

This way it’s way more efficient when looking for sound fx.

  1. Visual Effects:
    When hovering over a certain visual effect, a tiny preview window appears to see an example of that effect you’re hovering on. This gives a fast and convenient representation when browsing effects.

That was it, let me know what your thoughts are, give feedback and perhaps we can make the Core editor a bit more convenient!

~Yours,
Gerjo Vogel

Aswell as sorting the previews out it would be nice to select them all when mixing things together and have them play according to their new settings
