@wim very nice freezing idea
@Halftone this will do that click with most continuous pads or sound textures if the waveform is different at the beginning and end of the loop. It needs an algo feature with micro fade in/out. It’s possible to export the loop in AudioShare to add those micro fades, but as it’s a live looper that will kill workflow. Hope they will consider adding a such feature.
Yeah would be nice if you could have an envelope on each of sector playbacks and also be able to touch the sectors for triggering too. You can use the lowpass filter to get rid of some of the clicks.
The 'Sector Xfade' works well in blending sectors together, shame it can't be used on a single loop.
yeah that xfade is useful.
I really think this app is a utility (hammer) for more rhythmic type stuff and an instrument (paint brush) for more flowing, ambient-ish stuff. Everything from the Xfade to the tape saturation, etc just works perfectly for smooth, flowing ambient explorations. In other words, I tend to use this late at night as things are winding down...
I like how two days after the app is released you already describe it as an established evening routine
+500 bonus points to you, sir!
I'll be employing it in this manner this evening, with my usual bottle of Friday red...
I got it , watched the videos...and still lost in controlling it !!!! I think this needs a different skin with a simpler layout that mortals can use to control it 😉😀😀
Nah, just a Sir Doug video is all.

Btw, it is worth taking 20minutes to read the Enso manual. It is well written a> @thepinkelefant said:
Download the PDF from the Audio Damage web site. It's worth the 10-20 minutes that it takes to read it. All is illuminated.
The thing that was confusing me was whether to use the 'Mode Buttons', or the 'Trigger Button' when recording/overdubbing, as they seemed to do the same thing. What threw me, was nothing was happening when hitting the Mode Buttons, so I've been using the Trigger button instead - I wasn't sure of the connection between the two, and the Mode buttons seemed not to work so I assumed they weren't active.
Just read the manual (already watched the vids several times), and it seems I should be using the Mode Buttons. However, I just tried it again, and for some reason the Mode buttons are really unresponsive - I have to hit the play, record, stop buttons about four times to get them to do anything, whereas the Trigger button seems to work straight away. I don't normally have an issue with this...so something's up somewhere. Maybe I need to reinstall.
Someone, may have been @Jumpercollins mentioned to use the trigger button and that has been working a lot more reliably for me. When I used the other it seems to keep recording over a fixed length loop and resulted in a very short looped sample. The trigger buttons stops at the end and starts playing the same loop.
I’m using Enso in apeMatrix. I mentioned this before, but I’ve noticed inconsistencies with the buttons and responses if I’ve resized the Enso window. If I just open the AU window and don’t try to resize it at all, performance is more consistent for me.
Same issue for me with AUM, related to Enso window resizing too.
For the Mode buttons, try setting Mode Quantize to ‘Free’ if you want immediate response. Otherwise, with the other settings, it will quantize when the mode buttons engage to the nearest time division you have chosen.
Could it have been me?
Ahhhh....that's what's been confusing me then. I thought as the buttons weren't working, it meant they weren't active and I should be using the trigger buttons instead.
It wasn’t me so must of been you !
Have there been reports of sectors in Enso iOS not working properly? I can’t tell if it’s me or not. Once I have a loop and have set my sectors, while playing loop and hitting each sector button, it should jump to that sector right?
That's how it works for me in AUM. Have not tried it in another host yet.
Yes. I’ve not seen any problems, but also have avoided resizing the window. I’m using in AB3 and AUM only so far.
@hacked_to_pieces & @wim thanks! I just tried AUM/AB3 and it’s working as expected. Just not in apeMatrix
Just tried Ape Matrix works. the same as in AUM for me. Check your sector xfade value maybe you changed it too much?
Just deleted and reinstalled apeMatrix and Enso sectors are now working correctly there now too. Wondering if the Enso inconsistency I’ve experienced was due to a bad apeMatrix install.
Even resizing the Enso window in apeMatrix is fine now. Need to drop audiodamage a note that I figured it out. Cheers
Midi note midi learn also misses I’ve to use streambyter for my specifics needs.
?
Say what, now?
@skiphunt I spent some time messing with Enso in apeMatrix yesterday and had no issues - glad to hear the reinstall cleared things up for you.
I'll be yet another person to say it: Enso is crazy. I've toyed with live loopers over the years (remember the Boomerang pedal?) but this really presses the right buttons for me, especially the Frippertronics aspect. I've been using RE-1 like crazy because I prefer the signal degradation of tape delays and this is like the meaner big brother of RE-1.
Now that I think of it, I gotta figure out how to use these things in tandem....
^ Yep, Loving the app but my request would also be that notes aswell as cc can be used to learn the sector triggers (to avoid the need for 3rd party midi utilities like streamerbyter)
This is such a fair price.
Wow
so worth it and I am thinking pull trigger for Mac buy of this product.
Really super.
I use a complex MidiFire script with BlueBoard in midi note mode, with up to 24 actions including some midi note to CC conversion, but it has some latency for double/triple taps (only an issue with Enso reversing). So I have to use BlueBoard CC mode instead with Enso as it has only CC midi learning. And I loose some actions (only 4) and some compatibility with VoiceRack FX midi control (works badly with CC). So a midi note learn feature should be nice with Enso. I test the beast and will contact AD for feature request and bug report a bit later.
