@jimpavloff Great work and cool demo presets - instabuy. Nice range of sounds but I seem to be struggling with virtual MIDI so might need some more work here.
I tried IAA in Cubasis but I don't see this listed as a MIDI destination and in Poison I don't see any virtual MIDI destinations listed only hardware ones.
You're awesome @brambos !!

When you're using IAA-Instruments in Cubasis you don't need to route the midi. It's done automagically![:) :)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Just add Poison-202 as IAA-Instrument, enable record and use the Cubasis built-in keyboard.
IMHO, it isn't complete IAA-Instrument support without the transport. Imagine Audiobus without a transport. The developer needs to get the transport in ASAP.
@Samu thanks I will give it another try later. Nice to see it worked in AUM so thanks for that.
That's true, but treated as a 'sound-module' the transport-bar is not needed at all.
In current state Poison-202 doesn't even transmit/send midi so the transport bar would be next to 'useless' anyway.
It is also a matter of priority, AB and AUv3 are quite important too as is patch-export for backups.
If the app is used with AudioBus there will be no use/need for the IAA-Transport panel at all...
Give it time, it will grow![:) :)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Sunrizer is based on the Roland JP-8000. Then there is the Roland Sound Canvas for IOS. The Poison-202 is a very welcome addition though:)
Great 1.0 release!! IAA support is not fully developed however, without the transport controls. Please add the transport controls!![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
Jammed with it for a couple more hours this morning, lots of stuck notes particularly on the Power Saw patch.
Great synth, enough to keep me temporarily distracted from the new Spectrasonics synth![:# :#](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/grimace.png)

I've not had a single 'stuck note' yet?! (AIr 2, iOS9.3.5)
Been using both onscreen keyboard and external iRig Keys...
I've had 5 'stuck notes'. Although only part of the sound is sticking.
Only place it would fit design-wise would be to overlay/replace the JimAudio/Poison logotypes![:) :)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
The UI is quite crowded already even for smaller additions.
The standard for the IAA-Tranport bar is far from 'standardized' regarding functions or graphics.![:D :D](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/lol.png)
Every developer seems to implement it in their own way
Rec, Start/Stop, Rewind/FastForward and TimeCode/Song-Location etc.
Wich functions would we need?

I've only experienced it using external MIDI controller
iPad Pro 9.7 iOS10 (public beta)
Thank you sir!
I was looking for some prodigy type sounds few days ago for sunrizer and then this wild synth suddenly appeared, so i absolutely had to buy it, and it sounds REALLY nice, just what i was looking for. Now gieb AU plx
The modern world in a nutshell, oh the agony of choice!
Our favorite brunch spot has no less than three roasts available at any given time. I always get one of the other ones and compare, but what about the third?!?
I wouldn't mind it being placed over the logotypes during usage. It can also fold up and hide away if needed like many apps do. I wouldn't need the fast forward and timecode/song-location. A small hide-able transport that does start/stop/rewind/record and returns to the host would be perfect!![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
Is there a mechanism for sharing presets?
Good question!![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
I just got a return response from the developer:
JimAudio: Transport bar for IAA will be developed in the next update.
AWESOME!!! SUPPORT!!!
There is no export of presets as far as I can see, so no way to share.
hey guys does this synth have a warm side?
Use the EQ![:) :)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
I haven't got it but some of the presets sound quite rich, so it's not just for trainee firestarters. I am quite tempted by this, despite having too many synths already.
Or put a Model 15 or Filtatron filter in the IAA effect chain.
EDIT: or WOW
If you listen to the wave forms on their own. Poison has a little fizziness to them. Very similar to Roland digital.
Tastes vary. I like them better than Magellan, but DRC Oscs seem more akin to analog. Well that's my opinion.
Don't get me wrong. You can make 'warm' patches, but in the same way you can with a Roland digital, not really in the same way people describe analog 'warmth'.
Imagine though Poison as an AU in AUM. Making some nice Roland Jupiter 80 like sounds then putting some better quality fx on the lot.
Maybe I'm talking shit. Just opinion though.
Not really, but the beauty of it is that not every synth is supposed to be analog-like. We iOS users are privileged to have Moog supporting the iOS platform, and they are currently the kings of warm analog sounds. As mentioned above, DRC is also very analog-like. I got this synth, not for analog-like sounds, but for the 90's vibe. The key thing to remember is that the analog/digital debates are pretty much over. It's been discussed to death on other forums, and it basically comes down to this: neither is better, they are just different. If the sound is pleasing and non-analog, that's great! I personally try to find instruments that sound different but pleasing, so that I can have as large a sound palette as possible.
This one seems to capture that 90's music vibe well. That's what I like about it--even if it doesn't have a warm side. ![:smile: :smile:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Yeah, Magellan... That's an interesting beast. There was something about the sound that I just didn't like. It didn't sound......."rich" enough--for lack of a better word. The sad thing about that app, is that the developer threw the whole kitchen sink into the app--I mean, it supported everything, and it supported it correctly. Midi, Audiobus, IAA, etc. It just works flawlessly. It even has features other synths don't, like random patch creation. It had a great step-arp. It could be treated as an effects unit--granted I didn't like the effects much (even though I do like the effects of ToneStack). I suspect if a Magellan 2 came out, it would be great! I just didn't care for the original.
On the other hand, I really like Moog's Model 15 and DRC! They are two of my favorites!![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
actually I'm not interested in emulating any particular analog, a better description would be fake analog or digital warmth I'm looking for.... i just like warm sounds, read somewhere that they had some devo-esk sounds... and devo were able to get some really warm sounds from non-analog equiptment etc.......![:) :)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
so no worries I have no interest in debating sounds because sound is subjective.... now if you wanna debate sampling tools then that's a different story
but if you weren't interested in the 90s vibe at all would you still get it?
Me? Probably. I get just about everything. Hahaha!!! :-)
When Roland sponsored Devo, they went almost totally Roland. However, before that, it was, as you already know, a lot of MiniMoog. They had an Obie 2-voice, and Prophets as well. Lots of true analog stuff, really. Even the Roland instruments at the time were mostly analog (until they started with the D50 and S50).
I guess what I'm saying, is that I don't know that Poison-202 is the best instrument for Devo-esque sounds. I'm sure it can probably do some, but I would, as many have mentioned already, consider it more of a 90's sounding synth. Think Prodigy. Listen to the demo youtube sounds. It's great for that stuff! :-)
