Oh my. I’m just starting to realize that the new local and icloud approach that was implemented in Bilbao is waaaaay more painful than I thought. I knew it was much more time consuming in terms of building NEW kits, but oh Lord, I pulled up an old song, and just tried to change the KIT with L/R arrows and it didn’t respond. So I tapped a pad, and then Sample, as I would normally do to pull up the file system to change the sample loop from XYZ-1 to XYZ-2, and rather than seeing the sample list with Current sample highlighted and the “-2” right below it, I was reminded we’re now using FACTORY-LOCAL-ICLOUD and current sample NOT highlighted.
This is sad. Our beloved BILBAO is now on the list of “I’m so turned off to even using it”.
So finally, since I couldn’t use L/R on the kit I tapped kit name, (( once again current kit was not selected forcing me to scroll all the way down to Kit-153 )) and select Kit-154. Once I did that the L/R buttons worked.
Just as i started muting some unnecessary tracks... boom, all VOLS dropped one me, LONDON, BILBAO, etc. At that point, I had to manually go into 23 Tracks and turn up Master VOLS.
Extremely frustrating.
@ioue
Just reminded again that when I have some Bilbao tracks in-use and select (for ex:) Wolfsburg, I hear the 1-16 pads being played at the same time as Wolfsburg.
Please don’t tell me I have to select “All” button and change midi channels for every Track in the song now?
I finally got in the mood today to Play around with Gadget and it’s issue after issue. Losing me here.
Korg support site says they're on vacation for this week, which was why i was surprised to see ioue post here.
He said this on this very thread on August 8:
I will have a vacation time in Japan from the next week
So "next week" is right now. We can keep posting all we want today but no response should be expected for now.
23 tracks? What’s your buffer set to?
Thanks for the heads up
I’ve used both over the years but haven’t seen much of a diff. I think I’m at 512.
Usually my songs include 20-27 tracks or even 30 with no issues bc I use a lot of Bilbao.
Gotcha. I haven’t had issues with the new update yet. Usually I have 5-6 Bilbao’s and bunch of synths per session
Im really enjoying the updates. Been doing some Cage the Elephant covers on it today and using the newer gadgets with Darwin and it was sounding pretty awesome
That’s good. I’ve had issues over the past few updates so I know it’s not this one.
So in Beathawk you can run your finger on the top of timeline to loop certain timeframes of the song. What if gadget had something like that except on the side of the screen from pattern 1 down to the last and you can just run your finger down the patterns you selected to loop.
Any other ideas would be good to. I know there has to be a way to loop a song in gadget. So you can freestyle parts or work on transitions.
Dusted off my old nanokontrol 2 and new funky blue nanopad and decided to try using only gadgets that I have visited. Not too many options since I'm not well travelled but lots of fun with these cheap and cheerful controllers
Is anybody having trouble with warszawa? All of a sudden it has no sound in Gadget. I’ve checked everything I can think of. Deleted and re installed KEW. I just had to get my iPad Pro 2017 swapped for screen freeze issue and I did a restore from backup but could someone open Gadget and instantiate a Warszawa and see if the sound works. All the presets are there but no waveforms-I restored purchases in everything. KEW was updated to a new version as well so I don’t know if that broke something...
Edit, I just checked on my old iPad Air 2 and it’s working fine... I think I need to reinstall Gadget
I hate to ask the obvious, but did you try a reboot of the Pro? Also, if it was an iCloud restore, sometimes they look like they're done, but are still doing stuff for awhile in the background.
S> @wim said:
About 23 reboots!,..:) . I did the iCloud restore days ago...
I’ll make a copy of my local gadget 2 folder to be safe and reinstall I guess
Export any user presets you've made, and then try Settings > Other settings > Utility > Remove Warszawa. After you reopen Gadget it should ask if you want to install it again.
It worked! Thank you @cretakano, I didn’t know about the utility.
Is module worth it? I have m1 and usually use that or the pcm one in gadget for stuff like piano and organ, etc and can’t decide if I need module or not. I like the sounds out of m1 but of module captures acoustic instrument better I don’t mind buying that one as well
I use it mainly for multi sampled Rhodes & Wurli but there are really a lot of sounds in there, one of the packs has some multi sampled prophet patches and a lot more-
I’m glad to have it. I have all the IAPs too and it probably wasn’t cheap even at 50%...
If you’re all about those types of sounds for what you do, then I guess it would be good to have better quality alternatives to what’s in iM1. You may have to buy the expansion packs as well and all that could get pricey IMO just to have “variations” of the same old stuff. Triton pack is probably the most diverse variety of sounds to add to it. Again, depends on which specific sounds you love and go to most often.
Well, with the Prophet patches, I’m pretty much sold. Do you like the Rhodes pretty well? That is one sound I’m always not entirely satisfied in other stuff I’ve used and tend to need it a lot for some funk soul beats I make.
Yeah. I agree. A HQ Rhodes is hard to find, and it’s probably not going to be on iOS. Thinking Native Instruments Komplete, possibly.
The Rhodes expansion in Module is Scarbee/ same as komplete
It's amazing how often (despite everything) I end up back with Module....
Yeah I’m really liking the sounds in it so far, haven’t got any of the iaps but I’ll probably get at least one of them tonight. The Rhodes sounds pretty nice and I’m able to get that soft EP sound for those R&B type chords. That clav is funky af too, I’ll be doing lots of funk in gadget for a minute now
Ok, then scratch that. I don’t know... always feels like they miss some expressiveness... maybe it’s me.
Cool man! Glad it’s workin out for ya!
My guess is that on your phone, Gadget provided the icon and was the last installed app that registered for supporting the Rx2 extension.
It's strange that all of the Gadget and other related apps by Korg are currently on a sale until Saturday 31st August, including Korg Gadget 2 for Mac. Almost all their apps are on sale. Except, it seems, for the upgrade to Gadget 2 on the Mac, which seems to be the normal usual price. Which means there’s no hurry, no need to get it any time soon, it’ll be the same price any time you decide much later on.
I was hoping to get a break as well on the Mac upgrade! Didn’t buy it...
