    What is all this talk about 'dub'? I've always just called a delay a delay. Wouldn't any delay be good for 'dub'? Or are you talking about a specific music style or genre? I've always been at a loss over this.

    It's delay after the room is thick with smoke😆

    Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll look into them while I’m waiting for the iPhone support to arrive in this one. :smile:

    Pretty confident it’s coming. When I asked the dev he said “of course!” :)

    Yeah. this is one Auv3 that just doesn't exist. there are some good reverbs, but none that does a spring. Maybe when tonestack makes it over, I'll use that, but that spring didn't sound very good to me. Personally, i'd be more than happy with a convolution Auv3, but a convincing emulation along the lines of like Springbox is what I'm dreaming of.

    for now I'm using Mobile Convolution IAA, but it crashes pretty regularly :(

    If you have the iVCS synth you get the spring reverb section as its own AUv3. It has parametric models, but also an impulse response of the real VCS3 spring module. Definitely better than the ToneStack one.

    Now that's how you explain things! Terse, and crystal clear.

    I've been enjoying RE-1 but have a stupid question: how do you use it as simple looper? i.e. record a loop and stop the record process while having the loop continue to play (and have the input instrument still be audible so that you can play along with the loop.

    It seems like I must be overlooking something obvious.

    This is a common question so far. I think it might be a bug that the audio stops playback when you turn 'overdub' off. Can someone in touch with the developer pass this on? @skiphunt , maybe? I'll tag him here, too.

    @ka010 : See potential bug above, please.

    Yes, that would be an instabuy for me, no need to read reviews before buying 😊

    Do people remember AUFX Dub?...... That is still a good Dub Box....

    Yeah great app, would be better as an AU though.

    Not sure if it does the same level of degradation as the new one though, as I haven’t got the new one to compare.

    Wasn’t the Dev going to make all his AUFX apps AU?.... Think it was after he made AUM?..... Now gone all quiet..... Or have I got it wrong?.....

    Although @j_liljedahl is top dev when talking about audio apps and did make amazing things (AUM to recall one), it's unclear if all those things that are promised will going happen soon. Nearly more than 2 years ago he promised to implement LINK into Sector so far this did not happen. I read somewhere he's now daddy and this also takes a lot of his time. Understandable ;)

    Thank you for your understanding :) And yeah, I've been a daddy for 4.5 years now, it's awesome!

    Indeed it's impossible for me to keep up with the list of things to do given the time I have, and sometimes stuff takes a lot longer than I thought. I should be more careful about promising things. AUv3 versions of my AUFX apps are still something I mean to do, believe it or not :)

    Regarding Ableton Link in SECTOR, it's highly non-prioritized. As I said recently in some other thread, I think the right thing to do is to implement host sync (which SECTOR already supports), and that the host syncs to Link. For AUv3 plugins, this is quite obviously how it's done. And looking at the desktop, do you expect each and every plugin to implement Link, or that the host (such as Ableton Live) do it and then syncs all its hosted plugins? Of course, it's a bit different for IAA because they can be run stand-alone. But I'm seeing it this way: if you need sync, or routing audio in and out of the app, etc then put the app in a lightweight host such as Audiobus or AUM!

    Thanks for the explanation. Of course I understand priorities especially when you're a one of a kind dev overloading with work and things that make living more than working alone (kids). As said understandable and good that you not only focus on working 24/7. Life is so much more :)
    And also thanks for the solution regarding Sector. Still one of my alltime favorites apps :)

    DJ Puzzle 'sold' RE-1 to me :D

    Just hoping we'll be able to save loops in the AUv3 some day too :)
    (The general pasteboard works inside AUV3's so that might be a way to get stuff to/from AudioShare to the AUv3 instance. It works well in ReSlice so if we get that in RE-1 we're in for a treat unless we get the standard DocumentPicker for import).

  • ka010ka010

    Good morning everyone!

    New beta is live, those who got in touch should have received an invite by now, if not please let me know.

    Here's I managed to do so far:

    • Rewrite the animations to save a good chunk of GPU time
    • Fix the issue where setting the loop to 1 bar would still give you 2 bars
    • Fix the issue where imported samples would only show in standalone

    Yeah, he did a great job with that one! The tapeloop to sample option is there in AU actually, the "write" menu is a bit too short tho so you have to scroll down to see it.

  • Mark BMark B

    I tried saving a loop in the au version but it ended up as 1 channel mono with a glitch on the loop point.

  • skopticskoptic

    This is very good - thanks mr dev. It’s the closest I have got to my old RE 501 in iOS :)

    Happy days brethren..... forward with Jah orthodox and will be making lots of reggae sounds :)

    Good to know!
    Hoping Cubasis will soon get support for full-screen AUv3's :)

    I've not yet checked but 'export' of the tape-loops using the Files.app UI could be handy.

    It would make it possible to export a 'tape loop' to for example the Cubasis/Audio/User/ folder and drag it from there to the Cubasis time-line.

    Also Import using the Files.app UI could come in handy and make the integration easier.
    In Cubasis save a 'section/loop' to the Media Bay and 'fetch' it using the FIles.app UI straight into RE-1.

    Time to explore a bit more and try to stay 'focused' as the dubby loops make one loose focus and track of time :D

  • kinkujinkinkujin

    I bought the RE-1 but haven't even tried it yet. Time and worry over heating issues. So glad to see the dev jumping right on this, as I knew he would.

    @ka010 : See potential bug above, please.

    All you have to do is turn the input dial on the left side on the way down while overdub engaged. Your sample will continue to loop and your source will continue to play. Same if you load in a sample that you just want to loop with or without RE-1 effects. Just load it into RE-1 and turn input level to zero. Hit overdub and your sample will play without overdubbing anything more onto the loop.

  • iamspooniamspoon

    @ka010 Looks and Sounds very good! Any slim chance of iOS10 compatibility?

  • Mark BMark B

    It’s quite a noisy plugin. In overdub mode after several minutes there is a noticeable amount of hum and hiss (try just leaving it without recording to hear it build up). Yes, it’s a tape emulation but it would be nice to have more control of this. As you can’t turn off overdub without stopping the loop I guess it’s simulating the tape being degraded from continual recording.

    Could this be used as s simple looper in the aum effect slot?

  • universeuniverse

    Does anyone know if state saving works with this in bm3?

  • Mark BMark B

    This is the amount of noise that builds up on its own. No input, just overdub on. All head faders playing and mix set to 100%

    Yes, next build will be iOS9+ again.

    @Mark B said:

    That would be due to electrical noise and mains hum which the moment are fixed at -75db I think. I could think of to options here:
    1. Disable them if overdub is engadged
    2. Add an option to turn them on/off

    What would you guys prefer?
