I cant wait for this to become an AU, I'm looking forward to all the other features too but AU support is at the top of the list for me. I hope it will work great as an AU but just in case, I downloaded the current version to my MBP just in case!!
Yeah, great, but what about curing all disease or ending world hunger?
This synth looks to be even more massive and full featured.
An AUv3 version
PDF manual will be much appreciated
What an amazing value!
any dates?
Pretty please?
Don’t quote me, but I believe sometime shortly after the 1st of April. So, very soon. The new features list is insane so there was a lot to test. But I can say with 100% confidence it’s well worth the wait.
Thanks, OK, I won’t quote you.
Agreed. No quoting. Check.
Mums the word.
Promise.
Really.
No foolin"
The first rule of Layr updates is you don’t talk about Layr updates.
True 100%
Woo hoo! You guys got me all excited about it now!
Man! That’s more than spring cleaning.
I can’t wait to LayR my hands on it.
April fools day? Please not that.
No, it’s very real
Good news, I like good news.
I like the new icon
I hope this is being effectively tested in hosts other than AUM.
yeah.......it is.
@brice to be honest... although I recognized LayR's arp section as being very powerful... and I saw you used it quite a bit in your presets... I never really understood how it worked. There had been tutorial videos promised on the arp section, but unless I'm mistaken those never came. Is this new update's interface for the arp section any easier for mortals to understand now?
Great news and purchased.
Edit:
It sounds GREAT.
@RedSkyLullaby @brice : Brilliant relaxing presets, thanks.
I'm so down with this - been waiting for the excuse to use Layr more, and AUv3 is totally that excuse.
It's amazing - Bram's Rozeta has changed everything for me. Literally. I hardly even think of touching stand alone apps now. In fact, I often forget I have them on the iPad and have to remind myself. Never thought I'd care so much...
Where did you hear it will be updated to AU?
Earlier in the thread, but just look at the image above
Hey Skip! That’s understandable. And to be quite honest, I’m surprised by the “Arp” section quite often, still. It was powerful before. And now it’s significantly more powerful. I put Arp in quotes because it needs to be thought of differently to understand fully what it is and can do. Arp Sequencer I think is more appropriate.
The Arp aspect purely relates to the notes you choose to play, and the sequencer is what you see above in my screenshot. Nothing in that interface has anything to do with defining notes on the keyboard. It’s all to do with how the notes are played back over time. Though, there is a new concept here that sort of blurs those lines. The “note index” cell; those sections you see above that have numbers on them. Those numbers indicate which note of a held chord the sequencer is going to play back. For example, hold 6 notes on the keyboard and a standard “Up” pattern will cycle through those 6 notes in order from lowest to highest then repeat that process. With this new note index cell you determine the order in which the notes are played back. And of course you can define how many steps those notes should be held. This is incredibly powerful.
Each lane / channel can have its own playback speed and it’s own playback pattern: Up, Down, Up & Down, Random.
And apparently you now get your own cell type, the “Skip” cell. This one does as the name suggests; wherever it’s placed, that note will be skipped as the playhead passes over it. And yes, there are now playheads for each lane, which are very helpful in the visual feedback department.
The sequencer also sequences MIDI CC data of course. And given that every parameter in LayR can be automated means incredibly complex sequences can be generated.
And don’t forget, LayR has a MIDI out port. So this sequencer can control anything that has MIDI in.
Too much to go into in this post. I’m going to try and put together a tutorial on some of the ways I’ve been using this tool. It is still very complex, but very accessible. Definitely worth diving in and learning IMO.
Thanks! And three cheers for the proposed tutorial
it was your cinema presets, RedSky's, and my perceived grand potential of that "arp sequencer" that sold me on the app. Looking forward to the update.
Something I’d like to see in an update at some point, are some performance knobs. At the moment we have to dive into the individual layers to hunt out filters and whatnot. Virsyn are good at this sort of thing, with assignable x/y pads etc. A single screen with x/y pads, and assignable controls would provide an easy way to manipulate sounds during a performance.
Something tells me you’ll be happy about this panel; the MIDI CC mixer.
That’ll do!
Indeed! It's a lot of fun. Particularly when moving multiple sliders—very expressive this thing.
@brice You're killing me over here with the screen shots. Been drooling over this ever since they made the announcement last week or whatever...
Your lips to your ears: Yes please.....!
