This amazing synth gets better and better. Awesome support from the devs.

I hope the way it is presented means that extra “cards” can be added in the future (or a user writable RAM card as above).

Indeed. That's right!

We are planning a Free Expansion Card (EXP-01) next month as a Christmas gift. It will be loaded with new sounds that you can mix and match with the current sounds. This will be a thank you gift to all you fine people who supported AudioKit by getting D1 early!

(: (: (: Thank you so much
I always wanted a synth in which I can mix transient attacks with synthesized tones (and I'm with Samu for the FM part, maybe a few more waveforms too), and now you did the work for me. I'm very pleased with D1.

Woo hoo on the expansion cards.

My iThing awaits the, clearly imminent, arrival of the stickers.

Was just looking at my stickers earlier. Very handsome. I've been stopped, by women, in coffee shops and asked about them. It's all in front of you....

Was that something along the lines of “Why do you have that sticker on your face?”?...

If they attract women I’m sure it all will be in front of me.

Great news on the extra waveforms. Please can they include a piano (I’m not expecting a huge multisampled recreation, just a useful tone for synthesis) and some non-pitched sounds for rhythmic patches?

Stellar - though I already thought we got our thank you by the ridiculous price you let us have it for by getting it early

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks again Matt - I am already looking at integrating D1 into my 80s live setup. And I am very much looking forward to the new FM synth.

+1 👍🏼some acoustic instrument samples to mix and blend with ocs/pcm synth samples
would really expand the palette.

PCM Selector demo:

Great improvement👍🏼 Thx!

The pcm selector looks great ,but it doesn’t work
There is a bug where sound doesn’t change until you press the pcm button again ...

Hi @Korakios. That sounds interesting. Are you using the latest update (0.9.8.1) that came out a few hours ago? Thanks,

Yes Just updated
I am on iOS 12.1 using Air2.

Edit: The sound doesn’t change ,either by swiping up/down or loading from the new panel ,but I am sure it will get fixed

Thank you. Could you perhaps make a screen recording (so I can see what is happening for you). [email protected]

Is anyone else experiencing this?

Ok, I was about to upload a video and works ok now ????????????????????????
Did nothing , just typing here and switched to the synth again....

That's how fast we fix issues here at AudioKit! 😂

Glad it is working for you now.

Thanks for the update
The panel is great addition,gives more pro feel and promises new pcm samples
I think adventure kid gives some thousand for free ,although I don’t know if they need license or stuff like that

There are still some issues with the sound pickers that will be ironed out in tomorrow’s update. Thanks everyone for your patience 🕺

Updates via Quantum Entanglement ... next level support.

Stickers via Australia Post ... next level carrier pigeonry.

A simple but huge thank you to analog_matt and all at Audiokit. Both Synth One and D1 have been very welcome additions to the arsenal.

cyberheater

Is there any chance to get a tool so that users can create there own pcm cards?

analog_matt

Version 0.9.9 is out. BIG UPDATES in this Version:

• Now accepts MIDI Bank changes via MSB:
  Use your MIDI controller or DAW to select presets!

• Preset Handling Upgrades
  Cycle through preset categories with left-right buttons at the top (i.e. Keys, Pads, Alphabetically, Favorites, etc)

• Bank Numbers added in preset listings

• YOU CAN NOW HIDE THE KEYBOARD ON CERTAIN PANELS
  Hide/Show the keyboard on the Layers Panel, Presets Panel, and PCM Panel to expose more.
  More panels coming soon... You'll see a new Hide Keyboard button to the right of the "Link" button on certain panels

PLUS, NEW FEATURES YOU HAVE EMAILED US REQUESTING:

• Returns knob position to target after turning LFO off
  What does that mean? Set the Layer Mix knob to 50%, then turn on the LFO for that knob. When you turn off the LFO for that knob, the knob will now return to your original 50% setting. That makes it easier to dial in LFO targets.

• Tremolo Bypass, if the tremolo depth is 0, tremolo will be completely bypassed

• All PCM sound sources are now listed in the Layer panel spinners
  Some of you let us know that you like to play a game called "Sound Roulette", where you spin the spinners and see what sound it lands on. Sounds fun. And, we endorse that type of behavior!

• We've received all your ideas/bug emails and we're working on everything.

• Some of you have experienced bugs with the Arp/Sequencer and glitches/slowness. We are working on it – Stay tuned!

Email bugs, music, & friendly notes to: [email protected]
We're working hard to improve the app for you 👨🏻‍💻

Every time I see an update I get a little bit happier and to think one of these days it’s gonna open up as AU and so will synth 1

Greenie

so glad you’re in the world. Bernie & Reg.

It'll all happen. They'll both be AU. We're working on it.

And, we're working on AudioKit 5. Which will allow indie developers to make AUv3 apps easier. 🎉

Just want to pile on here and say you guys are doing fantastic work. Thank you!

Is there something strange about D1's Legato and Glide? They don't seem to work perfectly - sounds Staccato and the pitch doesn't slide properly between the notes for Glide.

Hi, the creator of the legato and glide functionality has asked for more details or a sound demo?

From the team member:
"Better yet, a short video illustrating the problem."

Thanks!

No need for a video. Legato works with some presets but not with some presets. For instance, it works with Simple SynBass (#48) but it doesn't work with Best B3 (#64).

As you know, in Legato mode, if we keep a note (C for instance) depressed and press another key (say D), the Attack phase of D should be skipped. It doesn't skip Attack for some presets like Best B3 mentioned above. However, on presets where Legato doesn't work, the Glide knob seems to render some portamento. So, apparently, it is just Legato that doesn't work on some presets.

Compare with legato in SynthMaster One - it is buttery-smooth and flawless:

Thanks for the bug report, @MobileMusic !
