I'm a heavy Nano 1 user. What's a crash?
You know what....right! I can´t remember one crash with this app....even right now.
But maybe version 2 is a lot more complex so we shouldn´t expect wonders here.
But i like what i see so far. I´m sure NS2 is the iOS DAW.
Haha. Exactly!
Nanostudio has never crashed on me either.
Not once.
Ever!
I bought BM3, but honestly, I've hardly used it.
I've been reluctant to invest my limited time into a workflow that has seemed to baffle a few folks here, knowing that NanoStudio 2 is 2017 bound.
I'm even hoping that the midi stuff is deep enough that I can put Modstep to bed and that the sequencer will hibernate Gadget.
** None of which has been suggested by the dev, but I'm an optimist!

Nanostudio never crashes, I bet Nanostudio 2 is the same.
We are in exact parallel.
Made my first album with NanoStudio, really good app, still one of the best piano roll implementations. Before this forum the NanoStudio forum was the place to hang out...will pick this up on release!!
I still like playing around with BM3, but I'm looking forward to NS2 no doubt! A lack of audio tracks might be disappointing at first, but I cut my computer-music teeth on FL Studio 3, which had no audio tracks (well, Audio Clips, which were introduced in FL 4 I believe). SO, Obsidian's sampler mode looks powerful enough that it'll provide a decent temporary playback solution. NS2 will be like getting back to my roots (since NS1 was the first iOS music making environment I ever purchased back in 2011). Cheers.
I created my very own first "track" with Nanostudio.....you never forget your first time
No Song/Scene mode?
Yes it will, I just learned on the blipinteractive forum.
I don't think there's a scene mode, per se, but it's a linear sequencer so you get Song mode by default.
Other newer juicy bits from that thread:
I guess you've seen all the bm3 threads re crashes but just in case, a lot are currently to do with audio damage plug ins, for whatever reasons. I don't use them for the moment and have been crash free.
Ditto. I actually route audio out to my second device and back for processing, which includes as Eos instance in AUM amongst other things.
Omg. I love nanostudio. Still never found a replacement. With the 32 bit purge coming soon this will be an instabuy and life saver
I was just about to write the exact same thing. And let me take a guess at your current mind-set: foolishly, unreasonably hoping that the new BM3 update will clear the mists of bafflement, and you'll be able to jump right in?
...and I'm right there with all of you. BM3 is quite powerful, but I'm hoping that a) BM3 gets sorted out to the point where it's really useful so that the time I put into learning it isn't wasted, or b) NanoStudio2 hits the sweet spot of usability and depth that it becomes my DAW of choice.
Open book. I did play with it a little upon release. Heard cleverer people then me as confused as me (almost) and other complaints as to bugs, appreciated the obvious effort made and retired immediately to the sidelines like a player who tweaks his hamstring a few minutes into the big game and decides to rest it as a precautionary measure, while still hopeful of making a contribution later in the cup run if his team stays in it.
/mangled metaphor etc.
Perfect!
Why are you guys doing with this thing? It's proper quality!! Phenomenal! Astounding! All but a few of the issues I had have already been mopped up lighting quick and the biggest update yet is in review! I'm focused on a specific project right now and I'm putting in 6+ hour sessions and not getting a single issue. What I'm hearing on this board just ain't connecting with reality for me.
I did have to do a huge amount of learning in record time to even get a fraction out of it (so far) of what I'm sure it's going to give me. It isn't another iOS quick fix. It's an instrument of infinite possibility to be mastered.
@OscarSouth
I'm sure it's great.
I just don't have the time to put in 6+ hour sessions to find out.
I don't mean to knock it too much, as there is a great deal of it that is "right". I'm just looking forward to fewer bugs and more ease of use. The interface is a bit disorganized for fast creation of songs. Doesn't mean I won't be spending some time with it.
I have no issue with any glitches. It's the workflow that doesn't seem completely hospitable. I'm willing to learn, but I want to make sure, like JG, that the power users are happy.
For instance. I had a little arpeggio-and-drum pattern going. I wanted to load Elastic Drums into BM3 and have it record the audio while the arp midi recorded in its own track.
It was actually somewhat complicated to get Elastic Drums to record. I had to load it as a bank, and then send that to an audio track.
It was fine, but not immediately obvious.
(It's like the recent George Suanders novel, "Lincoln in the Bardo." It's a very strange read and at times baffling. Without the knowledge that many people consider it a masterpiece that rewards the reader richly, I might have given up. I'm very glad I didn't. Recommended highly.)
@SpookyZoo oh haha this is just daily work, the learning came previously and didn't take nearly that long! (although probably added up to a respectable number over time). What serious tool shouldn't have a serious learning curve? I value depth over instant gratification.
If my job were music I could set up a meeting with BM3 to discuss how we were going to get know each other over a period of weekly meetings, set goals, targets, have somebody take the minutes so we didn't forget in week 7 what we worked out in week 3, etc...
It's not.
I didn't.
I'm not dissing BM3.
This is a Nanostudio thread, and my point was I've shelved any idea of sinking learning time into BM3 because I am super excited about getting my hands on Nanostudio 2, now we know it's planned for the next 3 months.
No app has beaten Nanostudio's workflow or piano roll since it was released in 2011.
It's an absolutely INCREDIBLE piece of sophisticated software.
I am still blown away by what it can do.
You definitely will not get instant results without putting in some time but oh man when you do ...
Intua shot themselves in the foot with a very basic / hate to say it poor manual. Things that people were confused about or didn't think it can do it usually can. And then some ...
Still interested in nano studio as I'm an openminded guy and competition is good I guess.
@triton100 tell me about it re:manual. I tried to read it exhaustively and it was pretty much impossible to even find the different chapters, was just a mishmash of unorganised articles that linked to each other. At least you can read through it in one PDF file now. It could go a bit deeper but it lays most of the fundamental principles out! Major improvement!
