    • Mass export

    Yah this point is huge for me.

    This is a nice mobile slicer sketchpad, not something to make perfect pearls, so I want to dump lots of miscelaneous ideas to my PC for further editing later. All blocs and all sessions should be exported as one zip file. Right now export is a somewhat annoying bottleneck of tapping each bloc, hitting export, selecting wav, choosing audioshare, tapping back to blocs, rinse repeat, get distracted by someone, scream, come back, find where I was, rinse, repeat etc...

    The export should be three or four taps and not 364 taps (actual math!).

    You can't yet export the entire project (all sections) but you can export all pads from a section at once. You do not need to export each pad individually.

    Use the 'Share' button that is top right of the app, then select wav and then select pads, after export you get the copy to dialogue with Audioshare, Dropbox etc....

    Well sheet! I am an idiot yet again. i didnt realise 'pads' were the thing, I thought these were blocs. :smile: thanks homee!

    You're welcome :)

    Thanks a lot for this update... Bloc waves is one of my favourites music app on iOS since its initial release.

    I could not try the updated version yet but it seems that it does not include the "slip-wrap" functionnality that I'm dreaming about since I bougt the app on its initial version realease date...
    Do you confirm ? And do you know when it will be available (I'm sorry to keep asking for this, but this app could be fullfill all my main needs in musical creation with this simple add on, allowing to synch loops together...)

    Edit : How do other people do to synch their loops together ? Do they go back and forth from Bloc Waves to Okusai (or other sample editor) to try to edit the samples and have the good synch ? Do they only used iap loops made for the app ?... Within my workflow, without the "slip-wrap" functionnality, the app is not able to reach half of its potential, which sucks as it seems to be a simple functionnality to add... Am I wrong ?

    If you have a 1 bar loop, then create a sample of it that is 3 bars long, load that into wave, set the loop points to match the middle of the 3 bars, then use slip to get your timing.
    Once you have your timing set, use the flatten function to trim the ends off that you no longer need.

    Hope this helps

    Thanks Andy, but that's the kind of tricks I already apply and it's a pain in the bottom. It would be so sweet to have the slip-wrap or rolling-slip functionnality. This would make this App a wonder on my side...

  • Feature request:
    You can already change the key of all the clips. Can we have and octave shift (1 up and 1 down). That way a key shift won't have to necessarily be too high or low in timbre.

    Oooh. Pretty.

  • Wouldn't it be AWESOME, if the randomization of discover mode and slice mode were combined in such a way whereby one could go into their loop collection and select multiple loops, then specify a set number of the new sections, and then Blocs Wave spits out a random arrangement of said loops with random slicing, slicing optional of course. That would be RIDICULOUS, but also great. But I absolutely don't expect @Launchpadforios and the team to add that. But maybe. Or maybe not. But maybe.

  • why wouldn't you expect them to fully implement that idea, it's a great idea?

    Why thank you! It struck me though as one those crazy ones a developer would be hesitant to spend time on. Can't blow people's minds too hard ya know. Lol

    Great stuff and sorry for repeating this but please
    MIDI sync/start stop.
    (Link is overrated!)

    And midi learn for individual clips triggering, and selecting sections.
    And going to the next section while the longer clip has finished his cycle...
    Changing key thru midi on the fly...(this one would be very time CPU consuming I guess)
    Major keys.(also selectable thru midi for minor/major)
    Midi, midi, midi...

    if we were talkin about some fly by who knows what developer that would be different I'm super sick of iOS development shenanigans but we are talking about Novation here... I only expect quality features from them!

    Yeah I agree that having a wrap mode for slip would be useful.

  • Kind of binge bought a ton iaps. Some of these packs are fantastic!
    They gel together so well. Now just need to expand with my own loops and recordings :)

    Which ones you call fantastic?

  • I'm starting to get tempted by this more and more but will wait until we can adjust to pitch of the individual slices and play the sample/loop as an 'instrument'.

    and panning.

  • I need to keep a hold on myself and wait until after WWDC'16.
    I've made up a list of 'new' apps I'm tempted to get sooner or later. Ruismaker is a no-brainer instabuy :)

    Ruismaker, VoiceSynth, NS-1, ModStep and Blocs Wave to name a few...

  • if they follow blocs wave through to it's logical conclusion it's going to be a beast,

  • @kobamoto said:

    I agree. And the further they get out in front, the more bold they can bring themselves to be, the more difficult it will be for competitors to get into a market they are staking out as their own. BUT (in case anyone from the team reads this :)) we're REALLY NOT KIDDING about the panning...

  • Instead of panning - individual outs to be fed into AUM for all kinds of processing goodness. :)

    This may well be what you young boffins get up to late at night Mister, but you should be aware of the fact that the words instead of panning immediately lead to a highlighted note in your file...

    Oh JG - would that I still were a "young" boffin... :*

    Some of my credit cards will likely expire after I do. :#

    Or reversing samples.
    Or option to re-trigger samples from start
    Or sample packs that aren't dance oriented

    DON'T MUDDY THE DEVELOPER MIND!

    Oh, well, alright, re-trigger samples from start is kind of a big one too....

  • Shouldn't re-trigger from start be possible if the sample just has one slice?

    I love this app. Here is a jam with version 5

    • easy to use
    • intuitive
    • not overloaded with parameters

    Nice noodle....Like your use of the sliders/mixers here....

  • no need for (instead) you can have panning in the app and individual outs too, that way people who don't use Aum, or want to use blocs with Aum can also pan their tracks... Unless they are paying royalties to kymatica then each and ever single developer should get off of their hindbees and not lean on audiobus or Aum. Here's a thought, Make your app complete by itself, and allow it to work with others.

  • Maybe I'm not understanding things, but flatten just doesn't seem to work the way I would expect too. I'm wondering if it's a bug. Here is how I would expect it to work: first set the settings the way you want them, then flatten. This creates a copy of everything set the way you want it to be including tune pitch. Next use the same loop to do the same thing with another pitch. So in other words let's say I have a single loop that I have flattened three times which is saved to the user file with the only change being the tune to a G, a F, and a C. This way I can play one section with the loop tuned to G, another section with the loop tuned to F, and another section with the loop tuned to C. On play back, they all play back at the same tuning. In other words, even though the tune pitch of the loop in each is different, they play back as the same. This tells me that I either don't understand or possibly expect more from the flatten feature, or there is a bug. What is everyone else seeing?
