Using MIDI with Shoom

zarv

Hi all, let me ask for a bit of advice.
I tried to send MIDI informations (just notes patterns) to Shoom from Genome, without success.
I think to have set up all correctly (ch to omni, bkg sound on, etc), besides, all worked smooth with, e.g., Cassini and Magellan.
Can someone give me a hint? Have I to resort to virtual MIDI (not yet tried)?
Thank you

Shoom does not support midi notes, only CC

No midi notes for SHOOM, please! It is expressive synth instrument
It takes clock, it takes modulation, but not for you to drone its azz!

However, there are ways to arp it beautifully.

Use WOW filter or Volcano from Auria to Shoom, let Shoom drives the filter.

The stepping LFO and envelope on frequency modulation steps of those apps can do arpeggio well. Should give them a try. That is what I did.

MIDI note input is planned for 1.1 if I'm not mistaken.

Great ideas. It's too bad you can't insert Launchpad as an effect. Its gate and autofilter effects would be lovely for the kinds of things you're describing @Kaikoo2

Thanks, useful hints. I'll give a try. Am I wrong or this is a kind of ring modulation?

Oh, no, it is not based on oscillators pitch multiplication, it is just plain post modulation on frequency, then adjust LFO, envelope attack and decay time, step speed and vowel, sort of combination mix for longer rhythmical tails. Normal with delay echo plugin to make steps fast, suited for trance music.

In the middle center of WOW filter, you have 4 sources, on the bottom you have many destination targeted tools, applying amounts of modulation for target.

Newer users have no time to get a hand on WOW is because they are not familiar with mod source and target arrangement on WOW. Once double tap opened, the source is in the middle for assignment, target circle all on bottom, the rests of are more easier to change the frequency of sounds.

See photo for 4 sources on that tiny square window

E.g. The red circle button has negative amount of LFO apply how much of this source for bottom part of LFO destination.

really hope that's true, would love to sequence this apps 3 synths
