figured as much, I don't even like to mention Loopy pro as I don't wanna jinx it
"as a matter of fact"...surely you agree this is a matter of taste? A few years ago i wouldve been there with you, but lately ive learnt to embrace randomizing features. They make the process faster, and produce results i was not expecting. i dont fully subscribe to the idea of signature either, quite the opposite: the reason ive switched to ios is to play with apps that erase my illusions of a fully personal touch and helps me make music that accepts its debt and references to other makers, tools, presets, and samples. Again, a matter of taste...Also, after being disappointed at first, i found Sector thrilling, and am using it now with BM3, the latter triggering the former.
So, I went and got the piano IAP, on the strength of the free Summer Keys samples. It sounds awful. Everything is out of tune - the keys, the scales, the chords. Sounds like they sampled a piano prepared by John Cage.
I could probably use it if I were making an experimental track exploring dissonance, but other than that, it is money wasted.
I can't believe they charged a premium price for this. Has anyone else got these problems, or am I missing something here?
Honestly at this point I'd suggest you just sample your own instruments. I'm currently making multisampled instruments from both iOS apps/au and also some of the sample libraries I have and having a blast!
Same here (and save with the uptight bass IAP)... They sound awful and the bike is way too low to be used with other instruments (even the ones from Intua demo songs)... That's why I asked for a refund on iAPs...
I don't completly understand what could have happened here... How can you release an app in such a beta / unstable / unfinished state after announcing it for months...
Guys, I don't wanna piss of anybody, but this app has all the workflow of Maschine (the desktop version) and some. And it costs 20 bucks and you guys are complaining about the quality of the sampled piano.
It's a state of the art sampler, you can do whatever the hell you want with it.
I know they've teased us for a lot of time, but believe me, you don't make an app like this over night. This is not your average "post my selfie on social media" app. So I can imagine why it took them that long.
So maybe it's time to show a little gratitude and enjoy it as it's the most versatile and powerful app out there. And believe me I've bought almost all of them.
Don't get me wrong. I love the app. But the release version is a lot more broken than the betas all the testers have. Take for example the midi per pad. The way it's supposed to work is you can override the global bank settings and have each pad have a separate midi port and channel. Currently it completely ignores the settings most of the time and only the selected bank and pad accepts midi input. This completely breaks the app for people that use external sequencers or othe sequencing apps. i have faith it all will be fixed though
and those beta features. I can't wait for them to get to the release branch. There is some amazing stuff on its way.
Regarding the IAP considering that each IAP costs 1/4th the price of the app itself it is a bit odd that a lot of it is underwhelming. I'm guessing that if it cost just 1$ people wouldn't care about the mediocre quality. That being said making your own kits is a blast. I'm currently converting some of my f9 audio Grid multisampled instruments into Bm3 kits
Ahhh.. so I am not alone in seeing this as iMaschine 3? And loving the direction Maschine is going with this 2.6.6 update...Will be nice to have, 'Export to Maschine'..
Exactly, when I think of the latest beta's feedbacks and videos, I can't help hoping they would have released the latest beta...
Well I haven't used it to trigger external gear. I'm a fan of all in one box, and for me this does absolutely everything I need it to do.
I just wish Linked Slices will come soon
Slice to pads and link the pads
Its not the app, which is great. Its the fact that one of the most expensive IAPs was crap. They shouldnt sell the IAPs if they are broken. And certainly not at a premium price. The description of the IAP was misleading.
So, are you saying that I have been frustrating myself trying to get Troublemaker, Xynth etc. to record midi in BM3?
I'm talking about linked slices when you actually slice the sample. At the moment each slice is independent. You can overlap them. And I don't want that.
Quite apart from sampling things yourself I am sure everybody has a ton of samples already, and if not, there are tons of free ones out there on t'interweb.
I have dumped in some selections from various Geist 2 expanders I have on the desktop and am having a blast with them.
>
Oki, so In practice when moving the end of a one slice the start of the next slice is moved?
(Like an option to 'snap slice bounds' so they don't overlap?).
You know where to send the requests. Straight the to man in charge @mathieugarcia
Woefully poor would be my description. Large is space requirement and extremely small in content.(which should piss me off ),however , the sampler and sample import work so well that I can easily obtain all the samples I need for free!
BM3 is running so well on my
Mini 4, I'm gonna stave off buying the 10.5 pro until the next release cycle (and buy a Digitakt instead, @kobamoto u still getting one??)
I agree all the hype and long wait didn't help. Intua should have kept it quiet and maybe a few weeks before release say something. I think it was rushed because of all the delays they had. Same issue with mpc live and mpc 2.0. Shit was hyped so much people were saying it's gonna kill the mpc live and maschine. My opinion is this is far from the truth. I don't even see it as close to maschine. Yes they have some similarities as so does lots of software these days. After a few crashes and the lack of IAP I went to make some music in iMPC pro because their at least I know what to expect and they've fixed and still fixing some bugs. Don't get me wrong BM3 is a good app and has a lot of potential but let's call it what it is, hyped and lacking.
MPC Pro was no different in this regard. What you have to do is manually trim the samples. When you save your Bank you then copy your trimmed and processed/renamed etc sample into the bank folder. You can then delete the session where the other samples were stored. By doing it this way you get a better bank and you can keep your junk samples under control from massively accumulating.
@wim
Thanks for the help! I'm trying to get it to show up under audio input instead of using it as a plugin for a pad - so that I can quickly record a clip and move it around the sequencer, like you could in BM2. From the sounds of it, this implementation is buggy at the moment.
Is audio warping in the upcoming features list? That would be awesome.
BPM detection seems dodgy on occasion, but I'm sure that's really hard to get right. Might be cool to automatically assign the BPM to what's in the file name if it's mentioned there. Then we can make sure our own samples get in correctly.
Agree about the Mini 4. I find all the other DAW(ish) apps a bit painful to use with my old eyes but BM3 really works a treat.
Still got a 12.9 on order though because my 2011 17" MBP is dying (sob!).
Totally agree. Hopefully someone will do a good primer video on sampling (or I should get off my Duff and figure out how to make videos myself) because this sampler is a thing of beauty.
I definitely lust after dat 10.5 pro but Still curious if they will push it even further
With RAM and processor, or even angels singing make a mini pro with 4gig ram. And of course that dang ol Digitakt looks so fun
Sure you can make your own instruments but they don't keep tempo as you pitch high up and down so not completely a fully fledged synth
I've got several results that are off.
You can turn on live timestretch so they do keep tempo.
But you can also place different octave samples (or even samples for each individual note if you want to go nuts) as layers and assign each one to a key range. So you can make it as accurate as you like, really. In practice, layering 1 octave at a time with timestretching should work well. I haven't tried out the key range assignments screen yet, so I hope that part of it is intuitive.
How much storage do you have on your iPad and do you think is comfortable once all kits have bee sampled etc
After playing with bm3 for a while I am almost considering moving my favourite samples and projects on maschine studio desktop to bm3 and then selling maschine studio... I have a feeling it may not be getting much use from here on in ...
