Seems to save 'note/s' to a pattern (read chords) or single notes per pattern. Seems deep.
Really cool app. I was thinking about something like this last week and Boom here it comes.
Two questions I don’t got answered with YouTube and manual
1) Can you actually record into the sequencer with a keyboard or something? And
2) Is it capable to import midi files and play them back through the sequencer?
Any insights are highly appreciated :-)
yeah and this
chromatic in AUv3 mode!?
As far as I see it’s not possible yet, since you are missing two notes. I imagine you can make something like a template as a workaround. Tap the intervals on the left to set them to absolute values and program your scale and save the empty thing.
Oh and is there a way to set the whole sequenced pattern one octave down in the AU Plugin?
If I understand the question, you just press the offset number and drag up or down to change the interval. So, for example, you can change the default +7 to +6 or +8 or whatever you want. There's just not enough vertical space to have all 12 steps shown at once.
I think I’ll wait for CPP unit and maybe pick this one up afterwards, maybe if there’s a bundle or some kind of sale. I use CPP much more than SPA and I must say I wish it wasn’t a new purchase since I hardly got enough use out of SPA since I bought it a few months ago...
I hope this gets lane mutes because I think that would be useful
I have the original SPA installed on 2 iPads, can explain the additional benefits of also owning the new SPA AU? Thanks.
Multiple instances
AUv3 recall in a Daw
There are probably more, but those 2 are pretty mahoosive for me
having more than 2 copies. i've actually run upto 10 instances so far. as my videos have shown. just scroll back a few pages and see for yourself.
I'm struggling with routing this externally with Aum. Only just starting trying though. I've never used Aum to route midi externally.
I was just thinking I wish you could slide patterns to rearrange them and you can
if you could give the AU the order playback in reverse order we would have something like fugue machine 2.0 on steroids
I absolutely love the feature of iCloud preset sharing! THIS IS BRILLIANT!
The developer could have made this more interesting like the Garageband step sequencer if you could change the direction of the sequencers, eg. forwards, reverse, or random. There seems to be some kind of P-Locking mechanisms with the note entry and based upon my experiences with Grooverider, I'm not so sure that's a good thing
. Still have no idea what the little squiggly buttons do either.
Hey @raindro What are you trying to setup. Will help if I can.
Let us know the apps and routing you’re trying to achieve.
Yep, and a quick 'double tap ' plays that pattern 'immediately'. Lots of deep stuff.
Now, back to setting up FLM in apeM to get these sequences recorded..
Thanks. I've actually made some progress. I'm trying to send midi from Aum out to a digitone, using SPA Unit to create the midi. It's working but I can only send midi to channel 1 of the digitone. Aum only has one routing option which is "digitone out 1." Not sure how to select other channels.
I’ve been in touch with Laurent the SPA dev about adding a way of selecting a midi out channel.
At the moment a workaround is to select the channel individually on the rows by tapping the leftmost button. I had to do this to send to the auto channel 14 on digitakt.
If you do this on a blank pattern and save it you can use it as a template.
Before I go totally nuts...
Is there a way to set the velocities for individual events in the same column?
The main Velocity seems to set the velocity for all events in the column?
There is a 'Chance to play' slider for each event and if 'Note Repeat' is selected it's possible to ramp up/down the velocity of the repeats but no dedicated 'event velocity'.(randomize event velocity could be nice bonus too to humanise the events).
What I'm trying to do here is to drive RuisMaker (or any other drum AUv3) using StepPolyArp Unit's sequencer.
I can think of at least a few scenarios where individual velocity (or a velocity offsets) might come in handy.
It's seldom one strikes all the notes in a chord at the same velocity...
I could not find anything about this in the manual so maybe this feature is missing?
I don't think there is a way, which would be useful yes, something to suggest to Laurent.
I was wondering about this as well.
Ahhh....that’s always been an issue for me. I think that might have pushed me off the fence with this one..
Use Rozeta Cells if you want to vary gate length per step.
Ah thanks. To be honest I’m completely stumped by Cells. Sometimes I can get it to work, other times nothing seems to happen. Just had a quick play, but gate length seems to be applied to all notes, even when one is selected. Unless I’m doing it wrong (most likely). Seems a bit erratic on playback too.
Universal gate length is the default in Cells. You have to turn it off in a sub-menu.
ok cheers, I'll check that out.
Nice time to grab my Launchpad.
@MonzoPro In my latest video I use Cells to get some great syncopated keyboard sounds by turning off the global gate length and adjusting them individually:
Thanks Dave I’ll have a look.
Have you got SPA, if so what do you think of it?
Out of all the new apps I haven’t got (Synthmaster, the Icegear synth, Apematrix), SPA is looking like it’ll be the one to get my cash.
I’ve tried Cells, but although I’m a big Rozeta/Brambos fan, that particular AU doesn’t do it for me. I’ve got Modstep too but never use it. With its clean UI and AU support, SPA looks like something I’d actually find a use for.
I’ll check your vid though, maybe I can get by with it if it clicks.
I do have SPAU but I've honestly been too distracted by apeMatrix to spend much time with it. I know, they work together but y'know - kids, life, stuff, etc. The kids are camping with Grandma & Grandpa this weekend so I know I'll have some time to dig in.
Cells was a revelation because it could play chords, but I quickly found myself having it just play pads for a bar or two under changing basslines. That was cool but got old. When I realized I could turn off the global gate length, it gave me a new angle.
If you haven't figured it out yet, I try to shove all of these apps through my little 80's-electro-funk lens to see if they can do something tonal, harmonic and accessible. Making ambient music is easy - it's wrangling these apps into making traditional radio-oriented stuff where it can get tricky.
Anyway, I'm kinda sorry for the shameless self-promotion but not really..... I do hope it gives you some ideas at least.
I am confident that SPAU will blow open my head and I'll start blabbing about it too....
