Honestly this app has soooo much going on under the hood. What makes it totally stand out to me more than anything else right now is the ability to customize your interface. That's the magic. Once you enter your patterns loops, you place them wherever you wish. Apply what ever morphing trigger cells etc, it truly becomes your custom made surface!! From there you build your song in realtime! That's my style. I've always been a realtime composer, that's why I loved Arranger workstations due to the realtime recording nature but the sad thing about those, is that you were using canned midi loops. With KRFT, you build everything from scratch. It's your creation, your touch your magic! And KRFT lets your craft that in a simple way allowing your creativity to be aroused instead of hindered by all the technical hurdles!
So much more than just clip launching!
Very nice innovative app trying a new approach. Would love to see an option to record a song into midi instead of audio, so we can edit the recording afterwards.
The Dev has said midi out is cooking so when that's out imagine sending instrument midi outs to separate AUM or AB3 channels and recording those as midi or audio into whatever DAW you like. I can't wait for this option which I'm willing to pay for as a IAP.
Well what then? That's what I was asking.
"Apply what ever morphing trigger cells etc"
What is morphing trigger cells and how does it apply to audio import? What is the "etc" and how does it apply to audio import?
I'm basically wondering what you can do with the audio once imported.
MusicMan4Christ is as excited as I am about the non-audio-import related features. The wavetabley romplery synth or whatever you call it, the piano roll coupled with the interface of building your own surface really is the bees knees. Well worth the 8$.
Anyway, here are some screenshots for what you can do with the imported audio clips as far as fx etc. Essentially, yes it feels like 'clip launching' as you put it. Right now I don't use audio-import, but am really looking forward to the one day sampler/slicer big time.
As for specifically "What is morphing trigger cells", it is hard to describe. There are videos around showing the general workflow.
Thanks for the detailed response @AudioGus !
Again, I'm digging this app, I really like it. But what's with all the filters? There is one on the channel, one on the EQ, and finally...also the filter. I'm never sure which one I want to tweak.
No prob. I have an adjustable 'goose neck' ipad stand coming tomorrow and if I have time can maybe do up a little video showing KRFT in action.
Cool!!! I love to see everyone's creativity with KRFT!!! Can't wait for Surface Packs as IAPs or even surfaces sharing!!!!
lol my thoughts as well. All I know is the FILTER filter is the most useful for me with the envelope amount, etc
It should be explained within the app but here you go:
Hope this helps!

Thats nice for using the app like a midi controller to control other music apps that support midi-in, but i dont understand how midi-out can be handy to use KRFT itself from within other apps.
Midi in would be needed for that. But, KRFT would rock as a midi controller for driving other synths and drum modules.
I agree. The modular approach makes it real suited to build your own control surface.
Is anyone else noticing severe battery drain when using or leaving this app in the background
Ipad mini 2 latest os
iPad Air 1 & iPhone SE no battery drain and with Background audio on, latest .
I did feel this was the case initialy but just accepted it as the price of awesome.
When you put it into the background are you leaving a Surface open or exiting out to the Surface list?
Hi alex
Super great app, loving it.
I think i left it with a surface open last night. In the morning no power at all.
Dont want to complain really , but you know 1st world problems
While it's understandable to try to make the work pay for itself directly. MIDI is such a fundamental feature, it would be a pity to silo it into only the group that knows they want it. There is the network effect to consider. The number of people who try to make it play with other apps will be much higher if they don't have to pass through a second toll gate. The results of such experiments could increase the word of mouth marketing of the app.
Sample packs are a great fit for IAPs, and you''ll sell a lot more of them if the app is more popular. This is a business model that seems to be working well for apps like Blocs Wave.
Beta testing right now, lots of goodies coming up! Loving it
Nice...
Would love to know what all is the near future pipe but I will be patient...ish...
Yeah, so with Background Audio ON the app will still be processing audio even though there is nothing playing. Make sure you exit surfaces before closing !
To be fair, apps have always warned about background audio using additional battery power. Even KRFT says in small print under the Background Audio button "May increase background battery usage."
As Alex mentions, if you exit the surface then it will turn off the audio graph even if background audio is on. But if you don't background audio is still on - causing drain.
We could check if the surface is idle for X seconds and then turn off the graph, but you know - it starts getting a bit complex. For now, best to exit the surface to the surface list .
Hiya --- we were talking about changing our app title. It's a bit difficult to sum up what exactly the point of KRFT is.
Currently it's "Modular Music Making", but we feel this gives a slightly wrong impression of what the app is about.
Some ideas we're kicking about:
Live Composition
Live Sequencer
Compose in Realtime
What do you guys think ?
Music performance tool.
Yes, don't mind the name so far.
feel like it's a live composition and performance surface...
