  • Request to have switchable filter keytracking. Maybe a toggle button that gives 0%, 50% and 100%.

    ... I understand what you’re saying re: browsing PCM samples. On paper it does sound tedious. But in my experience with it I haven’t found it to be a thing that’s bothered me. And I’ve been knee deep for several weeks with it. What saves it from being a pain is the inertia scrolling. It’s the same interaction as something like the iOS alarm clock interface.

    It's more like the opposite to me - Looks reasonable on paper but is quite tedious when actually using it. Inertia scrolling is perfectly acceptable when you know where you want your scrolling to arrive at, like a sequence of numbers. Of course you're one of the few who exactly knows at which position the pcm waveform you want sits at, but unfortunately we don't share your knowledge and would appreciate to quickly see an overview and access any pcm waveform while playing the keyboard. Also, the search for the right waveform might have to be done twice for each custom sound when layering pcm+pcm.
    We're not talking about 3, 5 or 10 waveforms.
    The list is a little bit longer, we're very happy about the choice and we'd like to make good use of it. You're not the only sound designer here ;)

  • Congrats on the release, and kudos to all who participated. Thank you's :)

  • Yeah I can see what people mean by the pcm selection. I think ideally you want both methods, so having the layer interface change to a browser panel when pressing the "instrument" word could be a good solution. :)

    yet another early bug...

    issue with display rotation : I’m stuck in landscape mode when exiting Digital D1 — the screen widget for locking rotation doesn’t operate any more, and there’s no other option than restarting the machine (iPad 10.5 running iOS 12.0.1)

  • Just had time for a quick preset tour for now and it sounds really inspiring and nostalgic ! <3

  • One of the best things IMO about this app is it’s lack of complexity. Many synths of that era were adding more of everything because the shackles of analog had been taken off. I know some will shout me down because they will want more modulation, more sound sculpting, more everything. I however have found you can make sounds with this quickly simply because it doesn’t try to do everything.

    Awaiting AU, then it will most likely become one of my used often apps :)

  • Amazing - had a run through some of the presets and it sounds mega. Can't wait to get my camera connection kit!

    I see where you’re coming from. All fair points. ;)

    No shouting down from this end. Totally agree. That’s what drew me in to Synth One initially, so I was very happy to see D1 share the same DNA.

    It’s a new and significantly more alive instrument once velocity sensitive keys come into play!

  • Not been a prolific user of pads in the past, but something I want to explore....glad to have this to set me on my journey, and who knows what else I'll uncover on the way :)

  • edited October 2018

    I have brought an Arturia Minilab into work just so I can have more of a play with this at lunchtime. The presets sound so great!

    Any chance of MPE support for the AudioKit Team's suite of apps in the future?

    Like some of the sounds in the demos. Probably pick this up in hope that the AUv3 arrives in near future like mentioned. A few questions -

    Anyone using with BM3? Solid or enough bugs to be really annoying?

    Someone else will need to chime in on this one as I don’t use BM3.

    Opening the synth first and then BM3 works fine. Only gave it a one-track ten minute work out but recorded and played everything as expected etc.

    It should be said that this opening sequence (for now at least) also applies to re-opening, so when you want to go back to a project you need to to open the synth up before opening BM3...

  • Other than some early bugs and some unusual UI decisions the most important thing is there. It does sound good. As soon as it gets AU treatment I can see it becoming my go to synth for pads.
    Would love to see independent lfo sync and seq as mod source.
    But overall pretty happy with the purchase!

    Huh? So I can’t be in the middle of a bm3 jam and then add D-1,without closing BM3?

    Or can I have bm3 open and then separately open D-1, then load it as IAA in BM3? Without rebooting BM3 session?

    Are IAA settings saved/restored?

    Questions for the devs. But you seem a little querulous on this one, might be worth sitting up on the fence for a month or two while they polish up aspects like this etc. The sounds are so good I am happy to work with it for now, more than happy, but each of us must find our respective comfort level etc.

  • Apologies for the crap off screen vid and sound

    Yes indeed, in agreement here.

    I have tried a few times with this, starting AUM first, then opening D1, then adding into AUM.

    First time it killed audio playback from FD, BUT background audio was not turned on, once I turned this on and then closed everything, it seems to be loading into AUM fine as long as I start D1 before trying to add it into AUM, and yes that is with AUM running first.
    If you open a session that already has D1 on it, it will not work, you have to remove D1, then open it, then re-add to AUM.

    EDIT: If I close AUM then the open D1(if used in AUM) stops working and needs to be restarted

    Cannot try the same with BM3 as I don't have it installed.

    Yes agree with your AUM assessment there is a few problems loading this app as a IAA instrument inside various hosts at present.

  • Tips on landing specific values on the knobs? E.g. Having a hard time setting the harmonic to exact values on the per voice filter (when I release the knob it tends to move up or down a little from, e.g. 2.00.)

    +2

    Ok, that flanger sounds so dope in extreme settings I wish I could feed it to filters and/or compression and saturation. Wait, we have dedicated effect apps for that! ;)

    Seriously the fixed but powerful signal path, and the well chosen modulation options encourage keeping our eyes on the ball when working with the synth: the sound engine, layers, and filters.

    Sounds pretty fuqt :/ Going to pass til it’s confirmed as good to go. Not in to the sound of the behaviour you mention when opening an AUM session that already includes D-1. Important everyday workflow stuff like that should have been spotted/fixed before release...

    Yes, they'll have a little sorting out to do, as expected. Not worried about these guys leaving town, but then I'm Candide, always expecting the best in the best of all possible worlds, while others worry the wool is being pulled over their eyes even when there are no sheep in the room. Takes all sorts, quite rightly. Just playing one or two of those presets and imagining what would come next is worth the intro price of 4.99 for me...
