    Awesome update thanks!
    Sampler sounds like a great addition can't wait.....

    Having the ability to route the different tracks through AUM via separate IAA nodes would be my next ideal feature after that :)

    Thanks for the nice words :)

    How would you use the different tracks in AUM? I mean ED already has built in effects.
    Nevertheless you would like to use the AUM compressor, etc.? That would be interesting to know ...

    Seperate record to AudioShare would be better. Need the seperate tracks recording, but never use iTunes and a computer linked up.

    Good news! :)
    Jonatan Liljedahl helped me with importing multiple samples to AudioShare. It works with zipping the files upfront. So I will do another small update, where you can import the stereo recording and 6 mono-channel records to AudioShare with one click. And you will be able to export the same 7 audio records within one email, so you are not limited to work with iTunes and a computer anymore. Beta testers, you should get an update within the next days

    This will make a big difference. The ability to get hold of those seperate tracks quickly is so important to my workflow. This will take Elastic Drums from an interesting app to a regular used app in my workflow!

    But nevertheless there will be other synth engines coming. I would like some physical modeling (should be able to make wood sounds, etc.) in there, we even started with it once, but CPU consumption was too high. Be sure we will do another try on that.

    Maybe when you add sample import in the future ,you could try a workaround:
    Make the CPU hungry engine for creating the sound and with offline render you could import the wav file. We loose the realtime morphing but it would be nice addition .

    Thanks for the audioshare multitrack export!

    Yeah, something like that is in my mind already indeed! ;)

    Hmmm... having issues when using the master effects > param x / y pad in aum . Works fine in stand-alone mode and does the normal pitch shifty thing that I love , but when I touch the pad when it's running in aum it gets stuck in a loop . I'll try again tomorrow after rebooting but this looks like a bug atm

    Hi Carol,

    I tried it myself and I was wondering why it should behave different in AUM than in standalone. It totally works in AUM for me. The effect is strongly depending on the pattern you are using. If there is already automation, you don't hear the effect, it only works with channels that have no automation. And it only works when you press a para button or tweak it in the xy pad. I generally reduced the effect amount, because I thought it's "too much", maybe I reduced it too much, I might reverse this again. Cheers

    Thanks for the reply :)) it did it again last night , all working fine until I accessed the x / y pad after playing around in the jam section - touched the pad and it got stuck in a loop . Even changing to a different song didn't shift it . Could be a change in the way the FX work now that I don't know about , frustrating though . Seriously good sounds possible now since the update , otherwise though

  • Trigger pads don't seem to work for me. Anyone confirm?

  • I'm noticing an issue I had with the previous version . When I'm playing ED in aum , along with patterning and a synth , for example , ED will stop playing after a couple of minutes . I have to open ED to get it running again , and it'll have lost the song I'd been tweaking . This is really frustrating , and happens nearly everytime I use ED in aum .

  • @FlightManual said:

    Yeah, I hadn't noticed before, but you're right, although the trigger function from the x/y pads does work

  • I noticed on jam section if you mess with the effects and swipe the bpm ,then bpm is locked. Have to restart ED.

    Just did this again, twice in a row . After a couple if minutes playing in aum it stops working . I love the sounds this app makes and it should be in my top five apps , but I've always had reliability issues . Disappointing to see this is still buggy . No issues at all with my other rhythm apps in aum , such as patterning which is rockk solid :((

  • Relax, bugs is motivation for keep evolving the app :p

    Yeah but I'd like the bugs fixed before evolving new stuff . I really don't care about new features , I just want to be able to record a track where it doesn't cut out halfway through :((

    @magnum38 said: The name "demos" is a bit stupid maybe...

    :) you're right... It's a weird name... So, maybe simply "User" would fit and make more sense ;)

    Could it not say User when on demos screen and Demos when on user screen? To represent where the button will take you? Make sense?
    Just playing with it now. Is the space above the xy pad on the jam screen used for something? Maybe a master effect xy would be good there? For like filter, chorus, pitchshift, flanger types? That's some prime real estate right there.
    Man I got a kickass beat going right now.
    Thanks man

    I'm sorry, but I got some other small ideas too.
    One is to shift the preset drop down window over to the right so the left edge is aligned with the 'presets' label above. So then the right thumb can more easily work that preset menu and it would look neater too I think.

    Has somebody else this bug too?

    @Carol, can you describe a bit more in detail how you are using ED in AUM?

    • via IAA or with Audiobus ?
    • how do you sync the apps? With Ableton Link, IAA sync or Midi sync?
    • do you send additional Midi signals to ED? ED's midi note setting is not set "No Midi input"
    • what kind of device are you using?
    • do you do anything special, when the crash occurs? Sounds not like ....

    The more information I have the better I can try to fix the bug of course. Cheers

    Thanks for the reply , I'll check when I'm back home , but answering what I can :

    No Audiobus , just aum

    As far as I'm aware there's no syncing , and link is switched off , but I'll check midi settings

    I've got an air 2 , 9.2

    It happens when I'm playing other IAA apps connected to aum

    Link - disabled
    MIDI clock out - disabled
    No MIDI input - clock in / note in - on

    That's it . Playing a preset patter , along with patterning and a synth (but it cuts out whatever I use it with) . After about two minutes it stops playing and shows up as not being loaded in aum . Getting close to deleting this app again

    I did some testing with Elastic Drums in AUM. Then I added an AU synth. Then added Patterning. The play button of AUM triggered ED fine. All played well until about the five minute mark and then AUMs counter stopped and so did ED. Patterning continued to play.

    I restarted and tried again. This time I loaded everything first. No problems this time as shown in pic. Will try other options to see what is happening.

  • Weird. Not had this problem. Just spent 20 minutes running ED (IAA sync), Zmors modular (IAA sync), Patterning & Zero Reverb in AUM, and it all ran tight with no issues. This is on a mini 4, latest iOS. Will keep testing.

  • More testing with no issues.

    Congrats on this great drum machine that just keeps getting better.
    A small request: it would be nice to switch the active channel when using the randomisation page. Could the randomisation page remain open while allowing switching of the active channel? (Might need it to be slightly offset to the left). Or perhaps there could be an additional switch/arrows on the random page to cycle through the 6 channels?
    Hope that makes sense!

    Thanks for checking , maybe the counter is affecting ED . I'll try loading ED first and seeing if I can change the counter time and retest later

    Hm, that's weird. I played ED in AUM with my iPad Air 2 (together with Patterning, and several other apps) several times, each time longer then 10 minutes, without any crash! BUT - I had immediately a buzzing sound, if I use Arturia iMini with ED in AUM. I had the same buzz sound/stop playing of FunkBox drum app together with iMini in AUM. Are you using iMini in your setup?

    Thanks for the reply :)) No I don't use iMini, but I tried @Fruitbat1919 's suggestion - he also had the drop out but it stopped when he loaded ED first . I tried this earlier and ED stayed loaded . I'm going to try again later , but this could be a way to fix it . I'll post my experience later :))

    @magnum38 Sorry , it bombed out on me again . Booted up ED first , before booting up aum and loading in ED , patterning and Shoom . They're going through Frekvens , and ED stopped working after 2.20 ( see screen grab ) . Until this is resolved I'm going to have to stop using it - I've got about ten tracks recorded now with drums cutting out halfway through :((

    Thanks Fruitbat , can't see the message option on my phone so I'll write it here . Basically I boot up Patterning , ED , Shoom and Frekvens first , then aum . I load a saved preset containing these apps which loads them in . I arm the record buttons then play button in aum and start jamming . This time I was tweaking Frekvens when ED cut out . I'm going to try again without that one , just in case it's clashing with ED

    Have you had any problems without using a preset? I have had problems with a few apps when using presets. Some more complex presets don't work very well, as they seem to need certain apps opening first and others not.

    No , if you don't use a preset though it doesn't save your recording ( as far as I'm aware ).

    Just tried again without Frekvens and ED crashed after about twenty seconds

    Have you had any problems without using a preset? I have had problems with a few apps when using presets. Some more complex presets don't work very well, as they seem to need certain apps opening first and others not.

    Also can you tell me exactly what happens when the problem occurs? Is the AUM play timer freezing or not? Also I need to know how you are starting playback - via AUM or via playback on any of the devices?
