Beatmaker midi out to Gadget
Does anyone know if BM2's drum pads can be used to trigger Gladstone in gadget ?
Comments
That's a yes...and you can use BM2 piano roll to sequence Gadget, and record the track as audio.
Can I ask a dumb question: Why?
Well I like hitting the larger pads of BM2 on iPhone forgot to mention this.
I set up midi out in global in bm2 but no sounds are triggered in Gladstone.
Aha. Aren't the pads in Gladstone nice, though? I personally do anything I can to avoid BM2!
Beat machine is working great! It's triggering Gladstones pads and the patterns also which makes me wonder if there's a way to import midi tracks into beat machine to send to Gladstone.
There's some set up involved, "easy" midi seems best in Gadget, and select BM2 as destination on Gladstone, set the empty drum sampler to send to all channels, select Gadget in BM2s midi page - shut the rest off,
and I think this is key: set GM drum mapping on your drum midi page -
that's how I got it going. I've also had more than one Gadget set up at once, using the advanced midi in Gadget sequencing several gadgets at once
One reason I want this is I can have audio tracks and gadgets in the same project...
And why is that man ?
BM2 is getting old and desperatly need a huge update to make it up to date with today's standards but when it came out it was a real beast and since then it is still one of the best tool on the market to timestretch, pitch shift, trim and chop (+ chop to files directly) you samples...
Personnaly, I dream of a BM3 app... If made correctly, I would be ok to pay the same price as Gadget or even Cubasis for this.
Got infinite looper tondo the job. Actually worked awesome as the mini pads in inf looper are able to adjust velocity depending on where you touch them.
You know what? You're right. BM2 was my second app ever purchased after realizing that IMPC was too limited. I was completely green and had to learn iOS conventions on BM2, and I just couldn't stand the UX. All the recursive folders, tapping multiple levels deep...I never knew where I was, exactly, and the documentation is terrible. I should probably go back and have a look, because the sample editing is better than anything else I have found. So now that I kind of know what I'm doing, maybe it'll be a better experience.
I've had this experience many times on iOS. Mine takes the form of "this app is stupid!" then I delete it, badmouthing it on the forum here sometimes, then I learn more, reinstall the app, realize the problem wasn't the app, then decide "this app is brilliant'", sometimes gushing all over it here on the forum or in the AppStore, and so on, and on. Very infrequent blasts of wisdom tells me that, except for the simplest apps, the problem with most apps isn't the apps themselves, it's the teachability of the dude (me) trying to use them. BM2 has an 80 pg manual, it took me months of struggling with the app before I actually opened it, or looked at a few YouTube clips.
The GUI isn't shiny, and the logic of the filing system takes a while to acquire, but it's a monster, and for $10 it's a steal. Nothing approaches it on iPhone...
