  • Don't want to ruin the review I've written on this app - but I do blooming love this app B)

  • is there currently a way to delete the sounds that come with the app?

  • edited March 2016

    The terms of my Surrender :)

    1. sample slicing - already on the way
    2. individual realtime stime stretching per slot, so that you could slow down one track while speeding up another.
    3. follow actions for sample slices
    4. panning- already on the way
    5. motion sequencing
    6. side chain compression
    7. quintuplets
    8. organic time shifting and offsetting fx that are w/automation
    9. import samples from iTunes library (not talking about iTunes file sharing)
    10. sample truncation
    11. sample triggering, sample slice triggering, and fx triggering via the Launchpad mini pad controller
    12. internal on-the-fly resampling into empty sample slot (in sync with project play)
    13. stem export and master export
    14. please do not make fx global, keep them individual per track with fx chains that are rearrangeable on the fly.
    15. please don't ad reverb, bit crusher, or distortion until after you ad the interesting fx :)
    16. fx clip envelopes -so for instance you can have a 4 bar clip playing but only restrict the fx to 2 bars if you want. this is good for volume too.
    17. fx clip envelopes to be moveable around the audio clip just like you can move the loop brackets currently.
    18. midi learn- so that we can map the fx controls or whatever to an external controller.
    19. sample deletion.

    I'm willing to pay $10 more dollars in addition to the 5 you're asking for the app if all of this is possible.
    If you also make it possible to print the fx in place, that means after we put fx on our loops and like the way it sounds we can just hit a 'print or flatten' button that will flatten the audio with the fx as if the samples were resampled with the applied fx in place..... then I'm willing to pay $15 additional dollars on top of the $5 you're currently asking.

  • More front than Woolworths mate :)

  • I'm just thankful that Matt is listening and giving the forum consideration.

    I know. Just don't want to scare the nice young fella off is all :) Can't help but make a comparison with the recent IK chatter. Software (and its attendant process) is software, but people are still people.

    Ummm... after reading this thread and a couple of the App Store reviews, I was skittish about buying this one.

    But after watching the tutorial videos, I held my nose and bought it anyway.

    I've only been playing for a couple hours, and so far I have to say I'm really liking this app a lot. Dare I say even "loving" this app a lot? :) I'd also like to see cross-integration with the packs I've bought in Launchpad, but out of the gate I'm very thrilled with Blocs Wave.

    Love the design and prefer the darker theme personally. Very intuitive as well for a novice like myself.

    Happy I took a chance :smile:

  • I want it to make me coffee in the morning and tuck me in at night......

  • Is Iman Dan AB remote compatible ? ;)

  • It seems a tad wishful to expect all of the things anyone would like to make an app ideal for them, to be implemented by a developer.
    If that were the case, I'd have my very own custom version of Gadget to work with :)
    I'm not sure about this app at the mo', but it is what it is (currently).

    Hi Matt.
    Sorry for this question, but I am one of the harder of thinking members of the forum.

    We all love a minor chord, but having only MCs available is shite. I don't want to record a major chord sample into BW just so I can have one: I want it to be available to me as a choice, like it is in Garage Band. I'd like to be able to set up the dial with the chords I want before starting my project.

    Now, it may indeed be the case that this is in fact possible and I haven't found out how to do it (not having located any manual anywhere).
    If that is the case, I'm sorry and I await one of the many kind posters on here's gently shepherding me to the answers I need.

    But if not, then , as is, the app is unfit for purpose.

    Give me major chords! I'm not asking for diminisheds or augmenteds or major 7ths or anything else: just major chords.

    Because, truth be told, if a chord set up system were available, this app could become as loved as Novation.

    Thanks in advance for your response and, oh yeah, my name is Mike.

  • By the way, the sounds and loops are brill.

  • Is it me or so far this app is only a pale imitation of groovemaker but with a decent import and edition option, which is a good start, but only a start.
    Groovemaker was a good app if you don't take in consideration the total lack of syncing, the unusable loop editor and the one effect at a time limitation. That's a shame IK multimedia gave up on the development. An other 15$ to the garbage. An other exemple of the "selling loop packs and not giving a s**t about the user" business plan.

    Definetly not just 'a pale imitation of GrooveMaker'. This is a fast interfaced idea generator. Copy and paste some loops. Trim and slip the copies. Interesting ideas abound in seconds.

    Hi Mike

    The transposing is working at a phrase level, that is it is transposing the whole loop as a single entity and not processing the individual notes or intervals between those notes. This means it cannot change a minor scale into a major one.
    You can record a major phrase and it will stay major when transposed, so if you want all major or all minor chords in your tune you are OK, but the major ones just won't work well with the auto browse functions. just ignore the minor part and specify your root note. I have yet to find a workable way of mixing major and minor without recording the whole chord progression as a single phrase, but this does take away from the freedom of changing the key to find the progression in the first place as well as severly limiting the interoperability of the loops with others.

    Give me major chords! I'm not asking for diminisheds or augmenteds or major 7ths or anything else: just major chords.

    Because, truth be told, if a chord set up system were available, this app could become as loved as Novation.

    I'd like to see they key wheel set out like the circle of fifths :) Matt has said that they wanted the initial release to be easy to pick up and go for users with a wide range of musical know how, and that was why they went with only minor first, as it was the most used in successful tunes. It doesn't matter how the key wheel is laid out, with the current transpose you would still need to record both Maj and Min versions of the loop to be able to use them. For that sort of transpose functionality you are in Autotune and Melodyne territory, and I'm not sure that even these will convert major to minor, particularly with chords (i.e polyphonic), they may stand a chance with monophonic phrases.

    Thanks in advance for your response and, oh yeah, my name is Mike.

    So far, very impressed, and keen to see this app develop to its true potential.

    Me too. I have been using it over the weekend, took me about 10 mins to come up with a set of loops from the included content, and chord progression, transferred the loops to Launchpad (which was a bit laborious I'll admit), and then my 9 year old daughter was away, playing on the Launchpad and grinning from ear to ear :D

    Me too. This app is totally superb, and exactly the sort of thing I have been hoping would become available. For a cliphunter in a hurry it's a dream come true. It has boosted the pleasure to be had making music with an iPad considerably.....

    Oh yes..... just one tiny little gripe for the bag- I would prefer it if it assumed that the tempo for the import you want to make is the same tempo as the one you previously imported- to save you having to enter it each time you do so- especially if you are compiling a song using all your own material- and you have made preparations in that tempo anyway.
    Granted when totalled it will probably only save a few minutes for the lifetime of the average user....... But they all add up, and I would rather waste/..... I mean spend them doing other things.

    I think one of the reasons I like this app is since I'm not a musician, and merely a novice playing with sounds and weird soundscapes... I don't have the skills for melody (yet) that musicians have. For example, I can't just pick up an instrument or app and start banging out a little ditty like I've seen my musician friends do.

    I haven't learned how to arrange sounds in sequences that sound decent yet... or it's much harder for me at this point than I bet it is for some of you.

    With apps like this Bloc Wave, I can quickly try out lots of combinations and learn how they sound together in various keys/tempos, etc. I can then replace one component with something I created myself and see how that sounds in the quickie melody I created with the built-in packs.

    Can't speak from the perspective of musician with even the most basic of skills, but from the perspective of someone who wants to learn by trying and by ear... Blocs Wave is a great learning tool as well as a decent idea engine.

    I'd like to add one request, that when loaded into AUM, you get the little AUM icon to click back to your AUM session.

    That would work for me, but I think having the ability to transfer a whole row would be cool

    Hi- it was just a little joke- Perhaps I should have taken the time to elaborate a bit more- but the kids were asking me to get them out the bath as the water was getting cold.

    Anyway I had assumed (I am now aware incorrectly) that it had been a spellcheck error. Here in the UK at least a 'diddy' is a slang term for a womans breast (or 'tit')..... it is also a slang term for a stupid person as in- 'That guy is a bit of a diddy'.
    Therefore 'banging out a little diddy'- would equate to either- whipping a small breast out with some force... or.... having a successful fight with a stupid person of shorter than average stature.... In the first case some people may find this scenario quite endearing- and so may well win the individual some new friends- the second case was more sarcastic where of course violence of any kind would be unlikely to win anybody any friends.

    In the words of that famous detective Columbo...... there is 'just one more thing'... I notice that you have gone back and banged out your own little diddy by editing your post and changing it to 'ditty'- ...... prior to asking me what I could possibly mean by my 'how to win friends' statement'. But you missed one piece of crucial evidence..... I had already quoted you... and as everyone here knows- I cannot edit your quote. You did say 'diddy' the first time- diddy you not?

    I also would like to say- I agree entirely with what you were saying about the app.

    That's funny. Originally I spelled diddy instead of ditty, but neither have the same meaning on this side of the pond. ;)

    I was referring to those with the musicians skill of being able to effortlessly pick up a musical instrument or app and easily compose something pleasant to listen to.

    Unlike those of my own ilk who have to work at it to get something composed that isn't entirely offensive to the ears. ;)

    Actually, my favourite trans-Atlantic lost in translation occurred many years ago, on my first trip to New York. We were at a comics convention in a hotel, getting the staff to page Mr Harry Bollocks. :# Said in an American accent, before they knew the word, it cracked up the Brits.

    Lmaoooo :D
