Damn! Apparently midnight is not eligible for download in the US(eastern)
AudioKit Synth One is now available … and its free and it sounds amazing!
played with it only for a few minutes… seems really nice! I kinda regret spending money on Synthmaster One… different kind of synth, but it was probably an impulsive buy, oh well
btw, is anyone here using Digitakt + Beatmaker 3 combo? I made a thread about it but had no replies so far… wondering how stable it is, I would like to trigger stereo loops and/or very long samples with it (via DT’s MIDI tracks)… considering the ammount of banks/pads it could be a nice companion, with a single session
Synth one is freaking awesome. Alot of sweetspots and the UI is super intuitive
Another +1 for synth one. So many great presets and well layed out UI
Just throwing the subject out there so we can get a pool of suggestions
My bad… Didn’t think about that
I use that combo from time to time, what would you like to know? I‘ll try to help where I can
Comparison of 3 popular granular apps by Jakob Haq:
iDensity (one of the best imo) is not included, but I guess it just didn’t make his top 3
yeah I dunno why he didn’t cover iDensity… and Quanta is around the corner so…
On the AB forum he said he only wants to make videos on apps on which he has personal experience. Quanta is not one of them yet.
well I already did some tests in the meantime
I was curious about the possibility of triggering samples, wich apparently does just fine (via disk streaming)
for now I’m manually triggering them with file players in AUM, but I might incorporate BM3 later on… seems like a good option to have a single session loaded with several long audio files (evolving synths, textures, vocals, etc.)
how do you use it? I’m interested in your workflow / uses
i basically use it like an sp404, so have a bunch of loops and slices on the four banks and trigger those via digitakt or on screen. I tried emulating a live sampling & slicing setup a la octatrack but gave up on it again rather quickly…I’ll probably just get an Octatrack in the near future
For long sample i use Loopy HD
I use quanitloop, mostly for guitar looping which is its main design. It’s tip top imo, does everything I want, supports AUv3, can wire it into Aum via IAA etc. Wish it had more tracks.
I usually use it with a fixed number of bars, but i believe it supports arbitrary length loops. You can try it for free anyway. Limited to 4 tracks.
Korg Summer Sale:
Never owned Reason or used Rex loops, so not sure the new Stockholm REX player gadget is for me. Might go for Vancouver instead.
Whoa! Octo Rex for Gadget?! Sweet! I just now found out about this!
I’ve always thought it looked interesting from what I’ve seen, but I was never a fan of Reason- nor did I want to go in on another DAW environment
I’m going to wait for some videos to come out about it before purchasing. I don’t know how I would be able to convert a file to REX on my iPhone/iPad
