    So do you have to hold the "hold" button down simultaneously with a note to get that note to hold or can you tap the "hold" button and then it will hold the next things you press? Kind of like how it works in the SoundPrism apps. it's difficult for me to press two buttons simultaneously, especially when they are far apart, so I would much prefer the latter.

    The hold button is like a latch, once you tap it, all subsequent notes you play will hold until you tap them off - even if you move them around :smile:

    I was up waaaay past my bedtime with this one... and playing more this morning with it. Gotta get out and away from the screen for awhile, but I had a question about midi with this app.

    I'm very new to playing with midi. So far, I've only really been able to drive something like an arpeggiator like Arpist with easy MIDI IN/OUT & channel settings like DRC, Shape Synth, Animoog, etc. Can I drive Arpist with Shoom too?

    I see Shoom show up in the Arpist midi settings, but I can't get it to play Shoom for me. Is this not possible with MIDI CC? If so, why is Shoom showing up in Arpist as a selection?

    Also tried to drive Shoom via midi with SunVox and Shoom selected for channel 1. But can't get that to work either.

    I'm positive this is just my own ignorance about midi stuff, but could someone tell me if it's even possible to do this and a little direction?

    MIDI CC isn't completely foreign to me, I did manage to make a little midi cc controller in Midi Designer Limited to control Feildscaper and iDensity. However, I've never managed to control anything at all in Gestrument with any other app at all.

    Clearly I'm in over my head here with regards to midi. ;)

    There's no midi notes in to Shoom as far as I can see, just CC and clock so you can modulate from external sources but not send notes. I'd like to see notes in too since it has 3 synths would be fun to sequence one and play the others etc, maybe it will happen one day as it's early days for the app of course :)

    Needs MIDI notes input. That would allow total sequencer control which would be killer driven by Modstep.

    The video preset demo sounds like the FX from the movies, "Forbidden Planet" or "The Day The Earth Stood Still".................... "KLATO VERTA NICTO"......... Very unique app tho. :)

    At the risk of being a clever dick, I think it's 'Klaatu barada nictu' Which was the source of the band name Klaatu, who at one time were thought to be the Beatles in disguise.

    In a perfect example of Muphry's law I think you may find its actually

    It's very useful , I set up a few held chords on two synths while playing lead with the third.

    Sound - wise , Shoom reminds me of the TC-11 synth

    This app is really exceptional.
    Eustress - great job on the presets!

    Thank you - the inspiration for that bank came straight from this forum!

  • We definitely need "macro" y modulation for assigning multiple parameters. I don't think it's hard to implement it.

    Funny thing that I tried playing it with TC-11 but they have way different synth engine and could not merge sounds ( which is also good). TC-11 tends to be more crystal while Shoom more dark and organic.

  • @kobamoto said:
    does Shoom have both core midi in and midi out ?

    Midi implementation is rich as expected but no 'note in' in v 1.0

  • @fprintf said:
    OMG @eustressor your slagpipes preset is perfect, holy smokes I just can't get enough how it can be made to sound just like a bagpipe sample or a really dirty bagpipe. Very nicely done, well worth it just for that sound alone!

    Thank you! Glad it's in the ballpark - I've never done any sound design before beyond tuning my guitar, but Shoom is just such a blast to just fiddle about

    That's precisely what I was hoping! Thank you so much! This just looks to fun to play around with to pass up!

    Check it out, Shoom's dev put Xynthesizr on sale too in celebration of Shoom's launch!

    Sweet! I've been wanting to pick this one up as well. :)

  • All that's left to say after I finally opened, played the factory preset a few seconds, played some moments more with one of Mr.@eustressor's - awesome @YuriT (: thank you, Sirs

  • Definitely needs Midi note in, more LFO assignments, maybe even a motion recorder, but still a fantastic and very capable synth.

  • I agree, a great new synth and if you liked TC-11 it'll be right up your street. Would love to see separate outs for each synth, midi notes in and motion recording too.

  • yeah Xynthesizr is awesome. I recommend picking it up on sale.

    Hmmm, bought but was expecting more, kind of disapointed.
    Y axis can only be assigned to some synth parameters, not all of them. Kind of limited. I don't understand why one would put limitations like that. Not much of wave character change in the Y axis, pretty much only wobbling speed and depth.

    Made some further tests, few available parameters assigned to Y axis can do some interesting things to expressivity, but nothing revolutionnary.

    Would have been great though to have access to all parameters such as glide level, reverb/delay level, enveloppe, a CC to control an external fx/filter etc.
    Would like to have much more than 3 parameters, and also a reverse axis.
    And why not a x axis glide parameter option...

    Most new apps are a new recipe made from a bunch of feature, already available in other apps, and put it in a different package with most of the time, shy improvements to lure buyers.

    Have to admit though, it is still great at what it does, and overall quite satisfied. The multi synth droning morphing with 20-22K span has something quite unique.

    I like these suggestions and hope the dev does too, along with midi note in and midi out.... because the iPad is the perfect sound module for these wonderful esoteric apps

  • This is amazing!!!!

  • I'll second (or third) the recording of motion as being an awesome add. That is one of the things that makes Samplr such a nice app. The best part of this app is the motion of sound possible all at once and since we only have so many fingers available at once, it'd be nice to record the motion of notes on two of the synths and then play "live" on the 3rd synth.

    Thanks, but Yuri deserves all the credit for his amazing app! I was just a lucky passerby when he asked for beta-testers :wink:

    That's the beauty of Shoom ... I am by no means a sound designer, but it offers just the right amount of complexity - enough to be able to create new and different patches easily, without needing a degree in applied advanced synthesis.

    Probably worth noting here that one feature Yuri implemented I like the most is preset sharing - you can import and export individual presets or even entire soundbanks via email with just a few taps. Whoma gonna start the "Share your Shoom Presets Here" thread?

    BTW, just speaking to the man, he said he tried commenting on this thread (probably to settle the whole "Klaatu" debate), but it seems Yuri's post got stuck in the "pending approval" spam trap queue. Hopefully he'll pop up on here soon.

    I'm all for recording automation - I know it's on Yuri's radar ... Perhaps in a future update?

  • I've really had a ball playing with this for a couple hours today. It's streamlined in a very good way. Would make for a great beginning point for learning to synthesize your own sounds.

    As for the TC-11 comparison, as fine and deep as that app is, the sound engine here blows it away. Top-tier quality sounds.

  • So I just bought this tonight (busy day). Fantastic! So far just running through presets, but the functionality here is great!

    Instant favorite is the "Lynchesque" preset. Having the Pitch Lock on allows you to create some great pad swells. The "Hold and See" preset is great as well.

    Gonna be loving this app for a long time!

  • Is it possible to play all three synths at the same time?

    Also I don't understand what this line means in manual ?

    Restrict Touches to Current Synth Only determines if you will be able to pick up held notes of synthesizers that are not currently selected

    Cheers

    Yes, you alternate between the three synths using the colored tabs at the top of the screen. Each can have a different preset playing, and if you use the hold button (bottom left corner), they will continue to play while you switch.

    I prefer not to select the Restrict Touches to current synth only, because I enjoy the flexibility of moving held notes on one synth, then adding/playing new notes on another, etc.

    Hope this is helpful!

    Derek put up a GREAT Shroom only composition on the iPad Musician FB Page - definitely worth checking out :sunglasses:

  • Been spending way too much time with this already in a good way...

    For 'next version whatever' I'd love to see midi note-input and individual arpeggiators for each of the 3 parts as well as individual part-outputs for external processing and recording in AB/AUM.

    To make things even more appealing add Xynthesizr like 'sequencers' for self modifying and evolving soundscapes where the sequencer-content could be transposed by playing midi-keyboard. (Think Bass-Lines, Chord Patterns etc).

    Then again Midi-Input for controlling Shoom using FugueMachine or midiSTEPs etc. would be a good start...
