Updates include:
Added new 'preview' button whenever you select some notes in the pattern editor (so you can hear a part that you are working on).
Now when you press the 'fit to view button' and you have notes selected, it will just zoom in on those notes.
Fixed MIDI Exporting
Now when you change the length of the pattern while the song is playing, genome will restart the pattern so that it stays in sync with the other patterns, instead of allowing it to continue playing and be 'off' by a bar.
re-added ‘edit’ option for sequencer long tap menu
Updated to latest Auduiobus version - 2.2.1
The update where it keeps the pattern in the right place if the measures are changed is awesome, very happy they did that!
Killer update.
Been doing a lot of experimenting with this lately, after reading @Matt_Fletcher_2000 thread about iKaossilator and Genome, finding out all over again how cool this is, something that turns the whole iPad into a DAW that allows Iive clip launch, and multi track recording.
Found an interesting feature from a couple updates ago, when onboard synth and drum machine was added. This may be kind of an Easter egg, as it's undocumented: the onboard synths can be stacked up. You're not limited to one 2 osc synth, it's possible to layer more voices (up to ? I've tried 4). Works with the drum synth too....
@Littlewoodg
Cool idea, never thought to layer the synth.
The 2 OSC synths are already are good, but this gets you towards big sounds like those in the big boy synth apps, with less cpu by far...the cpu becomes an issue if you're recording into fully fledged iOS DAW, and running off board synths or drum machines or both.
BTW it wasn't clear what was happening at first with the stacking, because the synths literally stack in the display. You can only tell what's happening by the # of "wires" connecting the synth to ins and outs. In the edit window u slide back and forth to access each layer
Thanks for the heads up.....off to play.
Cool! Glad I switched you back into it by rediscovering it myself. (By the way, I'm pointing it at iElectribe actually, not iKaossilator).
So what do you think of the Genome on board drum synth? That sounds interesting.
Yeah for a minute I got excited that you could control iKaossilator via Genome
unfortunately not yet.....Hope Korg gets round to sorting this out.
Nice update though!
Sorry about that y'all, that was actually autocorrect on the iPhone, if I do lowercase I and any consonant it gives me iKaossilator...this from a lengthy thread awhile ago about using iKaossilator stuff in Live...
If wishes or autocorrect were horses, iKaossilator would jam with iElectribe via Genome into MTS
Here here. I would have iKaosilator jam into Cubasis, or BM2, or GarageBand however.
Only midi hookup I've got going with iKaossilator is with two devices, as slave or master start/stop via Wist. Which isn't half bad. However: how about note event MIDI into iKaossilator, Genome has a kaoss pad with assignable XY etc etc
Sorry? @Littlewoodg
"Genome has a kaoss pad with assignable XY etc etc"
Is this what you're wishing for? I wish it did. On the main performance page. That would be so bloody handy.
Should have said "gets" but it was an attempt at positive thinking, or sci-fi, (math-fi?) what they called Speculative Fiction in my day...
What might happen sooner is I get an Air2 on ios9 and load up midi designer pro or something next to genome.
Then I could have as many cc controls as I wanted.
That sounds fun, though we still have to wait for the MIDI-ization of iKaossilator
I need to try Genome when I get home. It's one of those apps that I have on my iPad that I've never used. I've heard nothing but good things.
It's a grower. I've had it for 2 years and only recently "got it"....
To be fair, I think there have been some UI improvements too.
I think I'd hate to use it for programming a whole multi-track production. But for live 'clip play' (for fun, or maybe recording the midi into Gadget) I think it has promise.
Do you ever have issues with Genome crashing when you try to record in a more complex sequence from an external source? This is with Genome receiving a clock signal as well.
Not done that.
So far I just hit a few fairly random notes into a few different patterns and then jam a lot with the remix pad. Both for drums and synths.
Not got bored of that yet
Yeah I've noticed that a sequence with a ton of notes (I like recording in from Arpeggionome Pro...try that with the remix pad) seems to be ok. But if CC's start to become involved, that makes Genome freak out.
An alternative might be to record the midi into something else. You can then import that midi into Genome.
Bit of a hassle though.
Maybe try slowing right down the BPM just for recording?
At the moment, I've been focusing more on the MPC1000 being my MIDI brain, and using the iPad more for effects or as a sound module. So not a huge deal for me luckily
Very nice.
I'm trying to do the same kind of thing. But without an MPC.
I want to use a second iPad (running Genome) and a Beatstep.
It would be cool to almost use Genome like Loopy, and record in MIDI sequences to Genome from Beatstep, that would be fun for live performances.
Midibus can't see the new genome update.
Can anyone get genome to sync as a slave to Midibus?
MidiFlow can
The scheme I'm working with (since your iElectribe/Genome thread) has Genome sequencing synth(s), synth drum(s), (and as of last night Beathawk) recording multi-track into MTS. Clip launching and live play on Genome. AB and virtual midi holding it all together. Fun is right, approaching joy. Work in progress. It took a minute to find the proper DAW and AB host, I think MTS won over the others because it seems to be the most cpu economical. (I might be missing some Cubasis tricks re clock in, this might also be a good test case for Auria Pro beta) One hitch was MTS doesn't (yet) receive midi-in start stop, but for my purposes I can use MTS's clock to slave Genome which in turn slaves the instruments.
Wicked. Can I ask:
Are you able to test with Midibus? I wonder if I'm missing something.
How do you configure midiflow, and is the clock as solid as Midibus?
Z3ta+ is the current fav, the onboard synth is fun and needs more experimenting. Tried zMors modular (fun for as many as 8 simulaneous voices, the new mixer console was a gas, separate audio outs could be cool here) zMors other one is also cool. The new AK was also pretty fun. Sunrizer! Most everything has worked but I went big with Z3ta+ as a test and its solid.
Tried Elastic, Seekbeats, but your R and D and the app's stability put iElectribe in front. The onboard drumsynth, especially with stacking instances is pretty damn fun and has possibilities. I was really glad that there was a way to get Beathawk into it, Beathawk with piano roll for recording and performance options all at once,
This on Air 2, iOS 9
