tempo = longer/shorter step intervals - with Quantum go to the Time display & draw in the length of steps - so 3/1 would modify a 120 BPM tempo to just 40 BPM just for that step.
randomise of these step times could be achieved by using the random button (dice icon next to the green bar on the res) - it offers three randomising options (full range, current min/max limit range, within highest/lowest of any step).
You could also automate it using midi learn or nrpn (so could assign a lfo app say).
I'm also working on a LFO panel in Quantum that will allow you to modulate parameters, so time division would be one.
It can't be done ... the midi note on specification should have included panning (optionally), in my opinion.
You have a mixer view, and some will likely wonder why there is no panning button next to the levels. I guess the answer is that your mixer is per sequence part, not per sequence, and therefore different pan levels for possibly overlapping sequence parts wouldn't make sense.
Its actually easier than this @Angie - this is the 'per-sequence' devive> @Angie said:
You might want to turn off network in your settings (unless you use it) - its not very good - I just included it for legacy sake - Bluetooth midi is much better.
Also, with the settings per Device endpoint there is also the master settings to consider in Options - they allow you to quickly disable all devices on notes, cc fx etc.
One good thing to try is to setup one synth to play the notes, the other only the fx (like echo)......
Correct. It might make sense to off the ability to send CC10 to each part's MIDI channel but more likely than not, that wouldn't actually work for most destinations just leaving folks confused.
yes I agree bug fixing come first, but its always good to hear how I can make this app better! I really haven't used this app as much as I'd like (been too busy coding it), but thats changing and you will see more of my audio sessions - especially with my favourite app moog model 15 (which I was lucky enough to beta test & provide some patches for).
Thx - I going to put this on desktop too soon (OSX only though).
Such a well thought out app - so many features under the hood.
I keep getting surprises.
We do need some in depth short vids focused just on certain features
not an iPhone 5 by any chance? Will fix that - for now just double tap the song transpose label - it closes the sequence one.
This was true on midiSequencer
I had Ableton Clip follow actions in mind - but they were limited imo
I intend to add more actions to the list...
The important thing to remember (and you'd know this from Ableton clips) is that they are performed when a sequence loops - so the first action (e.g. 1 Transpose 3) would not apply until the sequence looped (and looping isn't just end step going fwd!). This is why you have loop x times more here - it enables you to perform actions on subsequent loops (e.g. transpose up 3 semitones after 1st loop, play that for 3 times, then transpose down 3 semitones, then restart - which repeats the actions).
Yep - most important thing at the moment (whilst the sale is on) is getting the patch out (IOS9.3 & bug fixes).
After that I can update the manual & do some more videos.
Bahahaha!
iPhone 6s.
ok - checking all the phone layouts now...
I guess what I was thinking was how great it would be if there was a fader control button (like you have for note, velocity, gate, etc.) that would control the panning effect. Is that even possible?
I can send a screen shot if you'd like. Not a big deal for me because I can move back to my iPad but it is an issue for iPhone only users.
panning means audio left & right? there is a mixer panel to adjust volumes (its a multiplier) of sequences/parts - these can be automated.
As Quantum is midi only, there is no real audio to pan
no its ok, going to go through & check them all on iPhones ..
Are you familiar with the ITVL sequencer on the desktop, I've been hovering over the buy button for ages..but Quantum seems to cover a lot of the same ground.
I used the System 700 in 81 &82. I sucked up most of the budget at the institute the year they bought it.
It’s now actually on Ringve musical history museum in Trondheim Norway. But it’s frequently used by people who demonstrate synthesis. I remember how disappointed I was the first time I pressed a key lol monophonic... but I didn’t get any sound at all before long lol
Interesting. I wasn't familiar with it.
I was most impressed with the phaser....
yes the cost was high - £10,000 then and there was me fresh out of school
I admit that when it comes to midi, I only have a basic understanding of it. When you say that Quantum is midi only with no real audio to pan, isn’t that true of all the fader controls? No audio to control the velocity, gate, etc. but yet those controls do handle adjusting the sounds that are produced by whatever synth you may be using. Couldn’t the same kind of control be applied to a panning (left & right)of a single or multiple notes in a sequence or entire sequences? I understand (sort of) that this can be achieved midily (made up word) inside a synth, but is it even possibe that this could be acheived from within quantum? I just think it would be cool to be able to pan left and right sequenced synth audio from within Quantum. Unfortunately, that’s the midiot in me talking.
I use it for rpt midi to Ableton on a PC. Love seeing Quantum sequences write themselves into the piano roll! Then trim them and clip launch in Ableton with my Push 2.
Did I mention that I’m looking forward to midi export? Export as Ableton live set would be fantastic too if you have free time on your hands.
(Btw, you should contact Ableton so the include you on their apps with Link page on their website.)
A midi note is defined by a time-stamped note-on message and a time-stamped note-off message. The message itself only contains note number (pitch), velocity and midi channel. The concept of panning is sadly not included in the midi standard. When you apply panning in a daw track, that usually means sending midi CC 10 controller values to that channel, and the synth on that channel would pan the audio accordingly. All faders you see in Quantum only influence what can be represented by midi note messages.
Edit: so you can create an extra sequence that sends midi CC 10 to the same channel as where you have your notes, using the faders to control the levels of this panning. Just keep in mind that the receiving end might not respond to this CC (as said by @syrupcore), and that all A, B, C, D parts playing on this midi channel will be affected by the CC (as said by me) - therefore it probably makes sense to not include this as a pan knob in the Quantum mixer.
Oh, that would be really awesome and (another) instant buy. But i hope it would be also as MIDI FX for Logic which i use very often but i miss really some great midi tools there.
While Numerlogy seems maybe the most powerful sequencing tool i hate the GUI and anyway would prefer Quantum by a country mile.
I just began to dive into it while i let it drive my favorite plug-ins (and of course iOS apps).
But having it directly in my prefered DAW as MIDI FX would be great and you would be my MIDI hero
If we then could also change presets between platforms you would be the god of MIDI
Before I place my request for custom scales... I should ask if there is a way to do custom scales?
Seems like so much is under the hood...
+1 I was going to ask about having the modes available, and thought the same thing...perhaps they are here already somewhere
I guess this is what you meant by ‘modes
