I don’t follow. I should have specified my use-case. I want to hook this up to my eurorack so I can see pretty sine waves while I work.

#1228

yeah, I’m on a 3 year old Pro, so my casual set up last night with 2 channels and two aux sends with 2 to 4 FX on each channel was hitting 50% at times. If I was prepping a real live set I’d have it tuned precisely and maybe I’d be using an external reverb pedal to cover the time it takes to load a full AUM set so that I could have my set broken down into an AUM file per movement/song/whatever

I’m sure when I upgrade to a 2021 iPad Pro, it’ll be a lot easier to just have everything going at once.

I do love how smooth AUM is at bypassing fx and swapping out files in the file loopers, it never clicks.

Maybe I’m missing something but I wish there was a gesture to re-order the FX, having to eject and recreate them is a pain, especially if I want to add something in the middle of the chain.

You can reorder effects and MIDI nodes by dragging it right and keep holding while moving your finger up or down. The order of the effect nodes determine their position in the signal chain, and can thus affect the sound. The order of the MIDI nodes have only visual meaning. Reordering is not possible while the pre-post option is open.

HA, it’s so obvious and it was the one direction I hadn’t tried! Thanks!

I should read this whole manual now that I have a midi controller for the iPad and am going to get deeper into using AUM for performance/improvisation.

Has anyone made an app that can usefully connect a Monome Grid to the iPad? What would be necessary for that to work, say as a dead simple midi note-on/note-off basis at least.

#1232

it is/was impossible to get them to talk to each other directly, there was a somewhat heated but fun debate related to this issue some time back:

i am not sure if the proposed adaptor project went anywhere in the end

my TL/DR:

it can’t be done without an active “translator” device: monome’s hardware (FTDI driver chip) and apple’s software (no userspace access to USB-serial on iOS) represent incompatible design decisions.

the translator device has to host a usb-serial device on one end (for the grid) and act as a usb-midi device on the other end (for iOS).

if monome wanted to, future monome grid editions could possibly be MIDI devices instead of / in addition to serial devices. this would require substantial hardware changes and a total firmware rewrite, and would be of no use for any user of an existing grid.

it apple wanted to, they could support USBSerialDriverKit on iOS like they do on macOS. i’m not honestly sure why they don’t, but i’d guess its a combination of increased security liability and a total dearth of commercial applications.

no. i don’t have time for it and generally don’t care about iOS. it’s sort of a fun idea in general but not quite enough for me personally. the principle is quite simple and could be hacked with two devices (like “2host”) or a single device (a number of MCUs have multiple OTG ports and can be host+device simultaneously.)

Is it possible to turn usb serial into audio, like a modem and communicate with ios via audio ports?

Yes, exactly that.

I have to admit, I’m vastly under-using Rozeta for this kind of thing. I shall rectify that!

#1239

Anyone know if theres any AU midi seq where its possible to work like on a classic 808+101 combo?

Thinking either like a sequencer that lets you advance the sequence by incoming notes as a clock source, or if theres something that maybe lets you gate one midi signal with another midi signal?

#1240

The Rozeta suite of sequencers will advance on incoming notes of you turn auto-play off.

#1242

I don’t know if there are any Korg Gadget users here, but is there a way to record in external audio from another app, such as Ripplemaker? I have Audiobus but that doesn’t seem to connect with Gadget.

#1243

Has anyone tried using a 16n with an iOS device?

I’m wondering if it could control parameters in Aum or other apps.

#1244

Yeah, it works …

I picked up AddStation from VirSyn on Friday (currently 50% off) and I’m really getting into it! It reminds me of the Seiko DS-202/310 in a way…you build up a few combinations of partials, and then crossfade through them with an envelope or the mod wheel. An AddStation voice can have four layers each with up to 8 different partial blocks, all moving and crossfading at different rates. Evolving pad sounds for days.

Hainbach and Sonic Labs’ Fundamental is out for iOS. Sounds good, although the interface is pretty tiny, twitchy and fussy on the iPad. Maybe easier to operate on the jumbo iPad?

Probably the best way to get oriented is with DivKid’s video:

I don’t believe so - your best bet would be cutting a loop out of something like Aum and then importing to Zurich. I am pretty sure Gadget is not an Audiobus destination.

Weird, I tried to start a thread specifically about Drambo and it got dropped here, is that somehow too similar? Here’s the post below, I’d love to get thoughts on this.

Really enjoying this app! I think it’s what I tried to connect with in the Elektron gear (RYTM ll) and couldn’t get past the limited display and confusing button combos. This seems like a ton of flexible sound design options, great sound and fun sequencing all in one package. I’m noticing a few little bugs here and there, but I’m seeing there’s dedicated and engaged developers and active community involved.
Who else is using this app and what are your thoughts?
BTW, I’m brand new to this form is this the proper place for this subject?
