    So, we can now confirm that we have been working on this.
    With this, we have two months of big features coming out for Blocs Wave and Launchpad, that we really appreciate your support with, and we aim to get you guys the crucial things you need to make music on iOS. We just need to go as fast as we can get them to you ;-)

    I'm at home, laid low with a dreadful lurghi, and this news has cheered me up. Hopefully, the 'great work' will include a way to use Launchpad sample packs in Blocs Wave. Also love Mr Fruitbat's suggestion of Blocs Launch.

    Hope you get well soon :)

    We now have an engine, that we have built ourselves, that allows for real-time stretch in Launchpad for iOS, and so Link support will thus also be able to work. It's a super chunky bit of work, as we're making it all ourselves.

    This would suggest that Launchpad V2 will use the same audio engine as Wave.
    Having 2 apps makes sense from the point of view that they are doing 2 different jobs, one for performance of compiled loops, one for compiling those loops. You end up with a smaller app footprint (less RAM usage), i.e you do not need all the code and UI for getting down and dirty with individual loops when you are performing with them, just like you do not need the code and UI for syncing and triggering and adding live effects to 64 loops when you are trying to find the perfect loop points in a single loop or which loops work well together.
    If you do want it all at the same time, then load both apps and use Link to sync them B)

    If you have a launchpad controller, turn it upside down
    The future is bright, the future is orange
    (Anyone remember that lol)

    I definitely agree that would be a killer feature, even if I don't see tempo changes as used, nor beneficial, as everyone think it is. Depending on the genre played tempo changes are, most of the times, less-than-welcome.

    In a studio environment then I would agree but in a live environment it is different....

    • Tempo change is important if you are playing an entire set within the same app without loading projects during the set, which some users do want to. It would be used more often between tracks rather than during tracks.
    • Another place it is important is if you are trying to play in time with live performers that are not playing to a click track, so you would need to adjust tempo in order to be able to get sequencers/loops/LFO's/Delays/stutters etc... into time.

      B)

    Yeah, I forgot to mention that I was talking in a studio perspective but you still have dubstep :D

We can't confirm the timing of the release, but rest assured, we really want this feature to ship, and we might post a quick demo at some point to show the progress.

    In terms of Link, we would clearly not charge for this. We actually named 'MIDI Sync Output' very specifically, as we knew that when we added Link support, this could be confusing for customers.

    All in all, V2 of Launchpad is shaping up to be pretty exciting. With this, we have two months of big features coming out for Blocs Wave and Launchpad, that we really appreciate your support with, and we aim to get you guys the crucial things you need to make music on iOS.

    Great to hear! Cheers.

    I never did get one of those things, my auntie had one, i thought they tasted horrid, and now every pub and fast food place has them, and they all taste horrid lol. So mainly now I drink coffee and beer :)

    O Yes they taste blooming awful :s

    It is neither dub nor can you step to it, so why is it called dubstep :|

    Pubstep would be more apt - the sound of drunks falling out of the pub - well worth recording :p

    except for the fact that Blocs Wave is actually a completely different instrument, it's not meant to be a utility/editor/prep app although it can certainly be used for that... The Launchpad app is a grid based performance app ala the monome (minus the follow actions)... but the Blocs Wave app is a sample slicing app more akin to Egoist but the plans the Novation devs have for it will make it much better than egoist is now, they've been pretty open about the upcoming features of Blocs. It's going to have slicing on steroids, and swell as sequencing of those slices in new and interesting ways, and you will be able to record your performances as well... + it's going to have some great fx as well, and Link.

  • edited April 2016

    I think they might even be looking into accessing the slices with the launchpad mini at least I think I remember them considering it. At any rate what we have here are two very different and very cool performance/ production apps on the way that will compliment one another but are meant to stand on their own.

  • Great efforts coming from the Novation team. Great to hear.

  • Novations life blood is innovation, they are always on the edge of things, the next couple of months are going to be great!

    Yes Blocs Wave IS far more than a recording/prep app for Launchpad, but it was conceived out of Blocs/Novation trying to create a recording/prep app for Launchpad, they said as much in the release material.

    My point was merely that I don't think they should not be combined into a single app even though the core audio engine between the two will be basically be the same in terms of function, everything else around the audio engine is different.

    Novations life blood is innovation, they are always on the edge of things, the next couple of months are going to be great!

    I have seen in the past the larger music and audio companies, Novation included, being ridiculed for not taking iOS seriously and for merely using iOS apps as a way to sell iOS users their 'proper grown up' products.

    I think that the release of Blocs Wave and the info we have been given today regarding Launchpad places Blocs/Novation firmly at the forefront of those who ARE taking iOS seriously, and as such they should be celebrated and thanked.

    So, THANK YOU BLOCS and NOVATION

    Agree @AndyPlankton

  • With all this in mind.

    Think two iPads Linked changing between Launchpad sets DJ style, with Blocs on each iPad playing the waves live.

    Hook up two Launchpad hardware units.

    Throw in a lead guitar player and some vocals.

    Great modern jamming setup :)

    Pubstep, LMAOOOOO

    Hic, Burrrrrp, Burrrp Hic

  • Thank you Launchpad folk!!! This is exciting!

    Plus your involvement on this forum does show you guys care.

    Looking forward to the updates!

  • looking forward for the update, Launchpad need a master channel with meters and volume it also needs a global stop button for all tracks.

    90%? Aside fx (eq is in the next release) what other things you miss from that description?

    Hi All,

    As big fans of this forum, and the many people on it who use our Launchpad for iOS app (and all the other cool iOS apps) we'd like to say a big Hello. We've decided to offically join this forum in order to occasionally jump in when needed, and be as helpful as we can. We'll endeavour to check in every now and then, but keep in mind we're also the developers, so we might not be as super responsive as we could be.

    We'll do our best.

    Thanks, the Launchpad for iOS app team.

    It’s been a while. Loads of forum threads on all 3 apps.

    Any news on existing feature requests?

    Cheers.
