Groovebox question: Does Groovebox have a song mode?
Does Groovebox have a song mode? I can't seem to find it if so. If not, Why do all of these groovebox-type apps not have a song mode to string the patterns together to create songs? I'm not interested in just creating a pattern, I want to make songs.
Comments
Not a song mode per se, but you can manually launch different scenes to create one in real time.
I think the reason that grooveboxes don't so song modes usually is that they are often created to be performed in real time. Users "perform" the patterns to define the song structure.
Pretty sure GR-16 has a 'chain pattern' feature.
Wiser members will be able to describe the process for you.
I'm still working through the app.
EDIT: Misread..wrong app, sorry.
Pattern chain afaik.
Yeah you create different scenes then launch them while recording into elsewhere. The good thing is all the scenes stay in sync during playback so when you switch, the new scene will begin playing at the same point within itself as where you left off in the previous scene. It’s not like other pattern type deals where it always starts the scene from the beginning.
It works the same as in Blocs Wave if your familiar
Each pattern can be set to chain to another pattern after a configurable number of loops. It's a song mode - just not with a visible representation anywhere.
We’re talking about GrooveBOX right? Grooverider is the one with pattern chaining (and also way better). Groovebox is the one with synced scene launching
Think you meant Groovebox on 2nd line.
But yeah, I’ve had some great fun with Grooverider today and the development speed and features on it has been awesome!
As nice as GrooveBox sounds, I really miss the midi side of it, as you do, and the development is nowhere nears as fast or fleshed out.
No midi learn.
Not even a ‘Select All’ notes option in the piano roll.
Would like a simple ‘solo’ option as seen in Blocs Wave too.
Hopefully 2018 sees more Ampify development. I think once integration between all 3 big apps, Launchpad, Blocs and Groovebox comes along, they’ll have something pretty special.
That makes sense! Thanks for the insight!
Yes, I have Blocs Wave, so that makes sense!
Good to know about GR-16!
Sheesh. Saw "Groove" and db909 in the same post and never even thought it could be anything else other than GR-16!
I did the same thing!
GR-16 has made my Ampify setup go unopened since I got it.
Different beasts really, but GR-16 has also removed any GAS I had for an Electribe as well.
Understandable!
That sure is a major obstacle to us perfectionistic composers who don’t want to perform in real time...
As a former perfectionist composer, I’ve come to embrace these types of setups. You do have to do a bit of “letting go” though for sure. Another way to look at it is merely jamming out what would amount to a first draft. Then I suppose you could go back and tidy things up based on that for a more refined performance. My problem with Groovebox though is you can only use up to 8 sounds/tracks for the whole piece if you’re doing what we’re talking about
