That shift to new pattern option is awesome! So cool cause it keeps te creative flow going! Of course I’m building Oman existing pattern but delete here and there, tweak, add here and there and soon it’s all mine!!!
I don’t understand. As has been said, you can use arpeg mode to both play arpeggios of chords you hold down in chord mode on the pads (or anything you play on the pads) or just rhythmic triggers of said chords if you set it to trigger. Arpeg and scale mode together is just Figure style melodic lines. The only thing you can’t do, which would be cool I guess, is have Chord mode available on the touchpad, to just play the chords normally but on the touchpad. So what are you trying to do?
I’m good with the way it is currently.
Maybe I quoted the wrong post.
@MusicMan4Christ I was quoting the other guy who quoted you, sorry for the confusion
@LucidMusicInc i don’t know why you would prefer to go menu diving than learn a simple command which I can pull off on my tiny iPhone in less than a second, but I suppose it wouldn’t be strange to have those functions in there ALSO.
One handed playing is one reason.
No worries
I agree once you get used to the simple shift write method, I would never go menu digging; it’s pretty full in there but in a good way! So many items which are truly useful!
Yes, the same way you get interesting runs from the touchpad with Arpeg & Scale without touching any pads I wonder if we could get the same thing with Chords selected instead.
That makes sense.
I don’t know if this has been said or asked before, but you know once in a while When I edit the sequencer I double tap on the LCD thinking it’s goona open up to a reg note matrix ala Gadget or Groovebox for note editing and stuff. Wond r if anyone has had this happen.
Re the folders... once a sample is imported in the pattern it's stored in the app. The user sample folder ought to be seen as a temporary folder. We had this conversation at great length about 300 posts back. I can't speak for Jim but your best option is to use AudioShare and import directly to the part rather than adding stuff to the user folder.
Yes, from your list I have plans to make 16 multi audio outs and user preset patches storing. I also was thinking about possibility to make an AU, but more probable that it would be a one-channel AU (one sound per AU) without sequencer functions, and maybe a separate AU with only sequencer and no sounds. But it still not even on a paper.
Regarding the full sized AU, there are too many limitations of current AUv3 implementation which would lead to a completely another product with lots of changes in the workflow, which is far beyond the scope of current concept of Groove Rider.
Any chance that a cut down AU extension for the current app is still on the cards? I would love to have the fast and easy sound creation of this app as AU sounds for BM3 (would buy IAP to get it if needed). Would also buy the sound engine alone as another app too.
Is it just me but there’s been so many features added now that I feel I’m missing things and not using the app as much now as when it came out and was FUN.
Personally I think the dev has done a decent job of making sure the new stuff hasn’t ruined the simplicity of the app. I was worried if he’d taken on board all suggestions the app may change, but so far, it’s business as usual from my perspective.
I've got nearly 300 samples inside Gadget, which if you haven't used it has the exact same folder structure or lack thereof. The way I have learned to deal with the problem is as I have mentioned, come up with some kind of naming convention and keep your samples archived in AudioShare. Import them into the app one by one and save them like they were presets.
The big storage capacity iPads are a fairly recent development which is why file management in iOS is still crap, unless you have AudioShare. Maybe we'll see things improve over time... but I'm not holding my breath.
You can read the earlier parts of this thread. It's been discussed extensively.
The idea of having a seperate au sequencer and sound modules is quite exciting, it would be very flexible: imagine having one sequencer controlling groove rider drums, au synths and external hardware, all hosted in AUM. It would keep those who want midi out happy, those who want individual channels for groove rider happy and those who only use au happy. One of the best things about groove rider is that it is super tight and rock solid, as is AUM.
But you should charge us for the extra work involved in any major update, you seem to be swamped by constant feature requests from everybody but have already produced an amazing app that is good enough to produce whole albums and live sets with and is actually better than the hardware that inspired it!
I had better get back to my bonfire before the snow puts it out
I agree.
I have enough happening with making music and performing things to think about secret handshakes and double tap with a twist shit.
Maybe consider putting a second page that is MIDI learnable knobs? Sort of the idea of GlitchBreaks.
Put all controls out side of immediate sound stuff on one page. I am not sure the idea this has to be crammed on one page is so important.
Why not add a sequencer(piano roll) on one page.
Fx suite on another
etc..
Crazy idea I mean AB remote options to do so, or LEMUR template, or just MIDI learn.
I have meant to post this about this app for a minute, but resisted.
I love Jim's work.
I never heard a developer represent my interests more in house music. I am a product of the Soundfactory, Limelight, Twilo, and the Tunnel. Jim's approach and taste of musical genre is so dead on it is scary.
But...I say this with all do respect, this app is not "fun" to use for me.
I know it may be a bitch thing on my part, but, it just is like dealing with iElectribe. Circa 1990's..........
I get the music style is from the 1990's but the interface ...........ahhh. ummmm.......hmmmm
Frankly, with all the new drag and drop stuff and so man things happening, this app is not actually getting the GUI it deserves at this point.
The app itself concept and music sounds / quality is a fucking 11 on a 1 to 10 scale.
But the interface, and the constant new "features" or "controls" just make me turn away a bit.
There are so many easier ways to present this stuff to users.
I realize Jim I trying to keep up with the feedback and make everyone happy, but maybe Jim should tell all of us to STFU and rework this interface that it represents the amazing music production capacity that is there.
Stay away from "shift" type features and "simultaneously" press blah blah......
People are inherently lazy and stupid.
Many other people are total nuts obsessed with the music they make.
As soon as an app "takes brain energy" to do things that are done a lot easier in other formats, it will limit the appeal and usefulness of the app.
Instead of an image of piano roll jammed in the box, but a true sequencer on another page.
Make the EQ 1 page
This type of stuff.
I love the app and hope that Jim tweaks the interface to make it feel like the amazing app that I know it is.
No, you are wrong - it’s a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10 lol
I'm not a fan of making IAP's from the optional functions of the app. I planned to do an IAP's, maybe, only for additional sample banks, pattern and patch presets (for a certain music style), but now it is only an idea since I'm not sure yet it will be on demand by users.
