Thank you!
Do we have any info on the pricing of the two new Gadgets?
(I need to bunk up some store-credits before I go on vacation).
Oh yeah! How about some midi clock and program change out? I could actually use Gadget if you added those. I love a lot about it, but I can integrate it with my hardware without those.
Gadget already follows MIDI Clock and IMHO that's worth a lot more, including hardware sync.
Program changes would be useful indeed, and an automation editor that shows values!
After updating it’s taking 20-30 seconds for my local user samples to show up, and hanging until they do. Hope this gets a quick fix!
Also gutted that the search bar for user samples has gone.. I have about 3000 samples in my Gadget folder, with all the filenames edited so they were easy to search for - BD, SD, HH, SP1200, ESQ-1 etc.
Currently on holiday with just my Nanokey Studio and iPhone, so wish I hadn’t updated!
@ioue Please bring back the search bar for the user folder! Also, Is it possible to import custom iM1/Darwin presets on iPhone with this update? Was hoping iWavestation and Oddysei would be included in the sale too!
Ouch! Sounds like a warning to better not update. Thanks.
Useless to me. I need something that can change tempo, which Gadget can. So I need it to be the master.
+1000000000000000000 on that one...
Also I'd love to see improved 'step recording'.
While 'record' is enabled allow us to set the playhead location and 'snapshot' the Gadget parameters to the selected step.
This would for example make it easy to change the entire Kamata waveform per step.
Other things that would make it easier to draw automation would be if the 'Gadget' was 'live' when drawing the values.
For example when drawing 'sample start' in the automation editor the 'Gadget' should reflect the value changes.
This would allow more precise automation editing!
Also proper 'step recording' of notes could be handy.
Just enable record, tap a key or keys on the external controller or a Gadget once the keys are released or 'tie/rest' is tapped the playhead should advance to the next step with 'tie' extending the notes. Step length is defined by the grid.
(This is the way Logic work, the tie/rest button is the 'sustain pedal').
@ioue Welcome to the forum, lots of 'Free R&D' is being done here even though the tone can sometimes get a bit harsh but it's most of the time meant with good intent in mind in order to improve Gadget
Looking forward to get my fingers on the new Gadgets!
Interesting. What kind of hardware is it that cannot change tempo?
All my grooveboxes and sequencers, even the Arturia Keystep and the old Beatstep, can send MIDI Clock, they have a nice knob for changing tempo (plus live tap tempo and start/stop/continue commands) and Gadget follows 1:1.

i have about 4000 samples in my local folder
Ah. Sorry not to be clear. Tempo automation is what I mean. Like you launch a scene and each scene can have its own tempo. Gadget added this recently which was great, but without clock out or start/stop, it doesn't work for external arps or automation.
Oh, you're right, I didn't consider tempo changes inside Gadget.
I think it's ridiculous at this point that KORG sold Gadget 2 back in February as having "two new gadgets", and they still haven't been released.
What's even more ridiculous is the reliance on AudioCopy.app to do actual sampling
I mean seriously. A 'Sampler Gadget' with 'input recording' & 'render scene & track to sample' and a basic audio-editor to trim, normalise, process thru effects etc. would lift Gadget up a notch.
While Vancouver is nice it would be even better to add a 'sampler oscillator' to Wolfsburg that allowed user samples
Not to mention being able to use user samples in all sample based Gadgets and also use the 'Gadget Samples' in Bilbao, AbuDhabi and Vancouver etc.
Track Routing could also be handy to enable processing of any Gadget Track thru the audio Gadgets.
It would also be nice to route any Gadget track as a modulation source to the iMS-20 Gadget
(And talking about iMS-20 please add PWM as a modulation destination in the patch bay).
So yeah, there are many areas in Gadget that can still be improved but I guess it's a matter of resource management...
If I remember right, if you do this tempo automation in Gadget it disables link too
All this!!! Plus time stretch in the samplers. That would be most awesome. Gadget could be king if they would get out of there own way and allow it to be a part of the ecosystem. It would be amazing to add an au gadget and allow au fx.

Indeed that would be a good reason to add MIDI Clock output. MIDI Clock receivers can follow tempo changes instantly, or with a very short delay if smoothing is involved.
And add a loop project button. Especially when your trying to create a song and have to restart everything every time lol.

Welcome @ioue
Thank you so much for being here! 👍👍👍
Gadget is a fantastic work of art and my number 1 app (ichiban!!!).
Please keep developing it and visiting this forum. It’s much appreciated. ✊❤️🎹

@ioue Very boring video, but this shows how long it takes for my local samples to show up. It freezes for 20-30 seconds, and if I touch anything during that time the browser closes as soon as the samples do show up.
Also, the list doesn’t start from the current sample any more and always goes back to the top instead, so I need to scroll through 3000 samples every time, with no search bar to help find what I’m looking for.
I know I have been saying that forever now!
Just noticed you cannot search anymore! What a colossal failure....no Dropbox Sample auditioning, no sample key word searching, extreme lag when browsing, Projects where Stockholm had user files load empty, and Bilbao has the same issue and Abudabi....what a disaster....an absolute disgrace of an update
Gimme the two new Gadgets so I can contribute a bit more to the continued development of Gadget
The only 'things' I'm missing for now are a few IAPs for Module.
If new 'Gadgets' pop up that are based on existing Korg apps I'm mostly covered there too...
(Only missing the Gorillaz Edition of iElecribe).
How do I make all my iCloud samples ‘local’ with a few taps?
I’m confused...if I move from local to cloud it’s not in local, if I do it the other way the opposite is true....so how do I synchronise so my samples are both?
Maybe you'll need to use the Files.app for that until 'batch move' becomes available?
(I'll dig into the folder management later today so the above is just a quickie).
