What I was meaning was along the lines of- it doesn’t seem to matter what I am
working on at the moment, even switching between projects- this cool dude app is always welcome to come in and join the party. I’ve instructed the heavies at the door to make sure it’s never turned away 😎
Love that. The cool dude whatever in whatever situation. Completely going to appropriate
Yo Bram congrats!
I see you included a standalone mode, super appreciated👍🏼
I would try assigning your 4 pads to octaves apart, or more., e.g. c-1, c1, c3, c5
That gave me a good starting point for pseudo multitimbral patch creation.
It’s already biting me in the backside (No Ableton Link? 1 Star Review!)
Ah well...
Think of our network, how far we are spread....now if you could only get hold of their home address......
The standalone in Noir is important to me, as this is where I make my presets and it’s distraction free. I can then dial them in when I’m using AU mode.
That's exactly how I envisioned it being used (also how I use it myself)!
It’s great working that way, as I can create more complex sounding patches. I mentioned to Supadom above that I can load 4 instances without any crackles on my Air 2, but in reality I only need to use a couple as they’re pretty deep already.
Great app, haven’t rated it yet so will do that now.
I’m often ending up with just one Noir with a side of Ruismaker FM to round it out / tame it a little.
@brambos I’m now convinced that Noir could benefit from the addition of a “transient “ or “tick/impulse” sound component. Especially for kick like sounds that end up being run through compression. It’s possible with layering, but that’s a pain. You can kind of use noise to do it, but then you lose ability to use noise in the main sound...
Maybe give it some thought?
Can't you get enough transient from one of the osc - high drop amout + short slope?
Yea, just like I mentioned with the noise, but it would be nice to not have to eat a full osc... Plus it kind of jacks up the mod options for drop, etc.
Not the end of the world, but if Bram gets bored or needs idea on what to add...
Good idea, this kind of things eats at him and he won’t be able to hold off
However i’m with @wim ...ruismaker fm is my pairing of choice. Love it for kicks.
Thanks for this nudge. Bought me a fine and fun accidental half hour....
If I have this app do I need a dfam?
No, but I still want a Dfam
It's very good but it's not DFAM.
The beauty of DFAM and Mother 32 is that they can become the heart of a modular setup especially if you're starting out with modular. And the coolest thing about a modular setup isn't necessarily the way it can sound, it's simply the tactile nature of the interaction. It takes you to different places than touch, mouse or stylus interaction. I love iOS and desktop plugins but would feel my audio world was a little empty without real patch-cords, knobs & sliders, and the global view of the whole patch you get physical interactions.
Trying not to sound too wanky with that description, but it's certainly what I value most about DFAM!
@brambos is it possible to midi learn the parameters in noir?
So I have ipad into Mac via lightning usb and into Ableton where I would like to control via an external keyboard
Not in the standalone. But if you host the AU in e.g. AUM you can midi learn until the cows come home.
Can’t seem to find the setting to initiate the learn function?
Noir uses AU parameters, so you can use AUM’s MIDI CTRL menu to link MIDI CC numbers to any combination of AU parameter you like - also through midi learn.
Thanks...will give it a whirl
I finally did something I’ve been wanting to do. I created a one-shot sample pack using Ruismaker Noir. I then loaded a few into Flip and jammed with them.
@brambos figured you might find this kinda cool.
Duke
Red no5 is my fav
Good for you
Thank you. It’s a combination of an 808 I made in Noir with Flip’s bitcrush added and automated a bit.
Very cool indeed
Can we say that Ruismaker Noir is a clone of DFAM? Or inspired by? Or a totally different beast? I don't have the app, but it's on my whishlist for sure!
I have a bit of an issue with the accuracy of the knobs while modulating them. Say the Decay is on a certain position and I want to slowly move it in a certain direction, when carefully place my finger on the knob it often skips a few steps from it’s current position (say it was on 18% and then it jumps to 21%) which makes no fluent transitions. I don’t have this with other synths. Maybe it needs a bit of oil between the knobs?😬
*edit: jumps from 28 to 32, that’s way to steep.
