It's got real-time w/ audio tracks.. thus far, the real-time stretching isn't implemented in sample / pad mode, yet. Not in standalone.
Unless the last firmware update addressed that? I don't think so.
Also doesn't ship with #2's monster sample library. Which never bothered me, quality wise or suzecwise...and now I'm about to load 10gb of samples into #3
2's code seemed pretty elegant actually, its still stable on an iPad 1 running iOS 5..
It's not loaded with tons of beat maker samples and instruments. That was one gripe about BM2 - there was no way to delete all those samples - most not very good
From what I read of the manuals the pads can be mapped to MIDI but is there a way for the scene mode to be triggered by MIDI, or is that touchscreen only?
But it was also marketed with it, right? I was trying to make that point about promises and delivers. For the transient problem I have a workaround even it isn't the ideal of course.
Trashing BM3 for not having transient is what you tried so that's why I point the timestretching issue. Any "tool" isn't perfect.
About worth/workflow again the matter of taste... I haven't to figure myself so hard how to add ReSlice into the equation. I see your point before AUM era but at the moment with preset recall and so (and Bm3 is still way more compact as I'm using it) it shouldn't so difficult to manage the user needs.
As I said earlier in the post iOS doesn't lack in good sampling or beatmaking tools but which BM3 seems to address is more the _mpc-like workflow_ (even it seems sequencer it isn't on par as someone pointed). I don't need Bm3 being a mpc-killer, it's the people who ask for comparision and then the tastes answer but we shall remember we are in the Audiobus forums not beatmaker forums or HipHop producing forums (the drama with touchy was wuuuuuut
) so I want to express myself from that position since I don't go those forums to shit on Mpcs 
Said that I still see myself using more Blocs/Launchpad than BM3 even it seems the most cappable DAW for iOS at the moment and side to side (some lacks in each side) to a desktop DAW or standalone MPC which is amazing by itself.
Also we can speculate about who is going to fix their bugs/lacks before. I don't trust in Nurkai, sorry.
Intua OTOH made a great work today lol
Just bought and installed on ipad air first gen. The app would not load any of the sessions properly and bombed out on a regular basis. On third re-install and still the same problems I could not alter the sample rate above 8000. Turns out it was my JVC bluetooth wireless headphones. Works fine with normal ones. Buyer beware!
It's true. I'm partial to the MPC workflow.
Thanks @Littlewoodg and @Halftone, now I understand
Please tell me that there is transient detection!
No.
Please someone link the pdf to the manual, will go through this lovely thread later but am poking adoumd the app and would like the manual on my phone.
Me too
I'm not seeing any transient mention in the documentation or tutorials, either. Unrelated question: Are people sharing their MIDI controller maps for BeatMaker 3 somewhere?
And there is no more 3ms fade in - fade out per slice... Welcome pops !... BM2 was the king of clean slices... What happened ?
@Samu : what does a greyed pattern means and how can I make it sound again (as it is muted when greyed) ?
I just opened Bm2 and looked in the online help manual it has and included is also a manual for bm3. It specifically says there is transient detect, selectable under the menu auto slice on the top right hand side.
Everything is amazing except the scenes/patterns... kind of counter intuitive and Modstep definitely does it better. I like how they let you specify the grid size. Things are too crammed together with the scenes/patterns. Adding and entering patterns could be done with long taps or double taps. BM3 developers, the font is too light. This is what drove me from Mpc Pro to Machine. Too much eye strain on light fonts. Is it a creative powerhouse? Absolutely! But is it perfect? The UI is still a bit rough...
Has anyone figured out how to erase notes in record mode yet?
Bought, and I can certainly see the potential here, going to take a while to dig in
.
Shame about no transient detection, maybe that's what caused the delay? a last minute feature removal?
Can any beta testers confirm whether it was there to begin with?
We've already confirmed it mentioned in the BM3 in-app manual. It's simply not in this build.
@Icepulse it's ok I'm against shit-marketing and I think what Akai did with Renaissence first and live/x later isn't respectable with jjOS and the die-hard user feeling. I want to believe these will be the great machines that they promised (not my cup of tea but a great tool for sure) but expecting an "upgrade" when the team involved has nothing in common (even the team from Reinassence isn't involved and obviously jjOS neither) when we are living in 2017 not 2007 or 1997... makes me feel a mix between grandparent tales and John Connor...
We are near in time to Skynet producing than Mpc60 or Mpc1000 and technology evolution is "exponential for true @kobamoto
I like it raw.
@ElGregoLoco You have engaged the SESSION section, go to SONG select SESSION, you will see in the top right it will sat A STOPPED, that means that you have stoped that clip, tap on A STOPPED and it will open another section at the bottom that will give you the option to start the song again, you may have to restart each track A, B C etc etc
Wow! Eos2 and FAC Chorus are must have AUs for BM3.
Fair comments. Agree with the fonts. Small thing, but the difference between easy readability and not. Options would be good (as to backgrounds/coloring etc). No doubt this has been discussed already...
I can't find it which it's a great drawback to me and I hope will be fixed after transient detection (which seems more important to potential on the fence buyers)
Agreed about crammed things that maybe could been addressed with "plain color clip" (like launchpad) for live triggering mode. It seems like a garageband (enhanced) live loops workflow to record songs from bricks but lacks in midi control like... it? I hope is my fault or revision feature...
I love the app! I have not had any issues with it and got use to it after 2-3 hours. I have used Maschine and Ableton for about 6 years now so I found the workflow quite easy to pick up.
I read a couple comments that some people don't like the scene/pattern section but I think its great.Defintely what I was missing on IOS. I find it quite easy to get loops going.
Browser area is intuitive. No complaints.
Tried a it with iMaschine and a couple AUs (Zero reverb/Zero chorus) no issues. I was able to automate some of the parameters and I thought that was a pretty nice touch.
The sampler is fantastic! A couple things missing but I'm more than content wiht it. Especially for first launch.
I like the effects. I can defintiel mix with them. Looking forward to see what else is added here. I still think I am going to use Auria pro to export my tracks for a final polish. I have all the Fab Filter plugins and I love them.
For me, BM3 is exactly what I have been waiting for. It is going to be the hub for all apps.
true
Download it in iTunes on a Mac or Win-Pc.
Lookup the SynthBook .ipa file and rename it to .zip instead.
Then you can open the files... (wav-files)...
Word!
isn't Matthew usually around around this time?
I'm finding parts of it very confusing. For example:
>
Okay, why would I create multiple pads? I really don't get this. And am I really limited to 8 instruments? This seems perverse. Can I have multiple pads operating at once? Can anyone explain this to me?
