Really hope Gadget gets the latest version of Ableton Link with start Stop.
I think the newest Link libraries require re-coding of existing stuff for the older library, which is probably why the uptake on it is currently quite slow.
I'd like to discuss a bit the new design of the Gadget mixer. It's not as important as the grid lines in the piano editor, but I have mixed feelings about this new look for purely aesthetic reasons. (BTW the grid lines in Zurich are light and are perfectly visible unlike in the MIDI editors.)
I really like that it's flat and that tracks are coloured now, but I really feel it doesn't look as sharp as before. There are some soft bevels that make it looked blurry compared to Gadget 1. Especially the buttons, but also the separators between mixer channels and the displays with loaded gadgets, input, pan and reverb send displays, meters, actually almost all elements look "softer now".
I think the design of Electribe Wave is excellent, a great mix of flat and 3D design and everything looks sharp.
I'll admit that I am possibly more susceptible to those small details because I am a designer myself (I also designed some VST plugins, most notably for LinPlug and NUSofting), not everybody will be bothered by that.
What do you guys think? And let's include our dear @davis_korgrd into the discussion.
Here is the comparison:
They spelled "Centre" wrong. ;-)
This are exactly my biggest wishes, too. I’m using Gadget with a controller, so if each synth could receive its own MIDI program change, it would help a lot! For my needs it would be enough if scenes are triggered by MIDI notes or CCs.
AB statesaving would be a huge improvement aswell (... though an AUv3 version would be still a dream, but probably will not happen.).
Launching individual clips is also very powerful for playing live, or to get inspirations for an arrangement.
I‘m not a designer, but I think Korg definitely made the interface more worse in common. Before it was much more clear, because of better contrast. Though this is a matter of taste: the new version looks somehow cheap, regarding the new blue (it’s too „pure“, before the blue was a mixture of blue, a touch of turquoise and a slight touch of grey - now it’s just a „pure blue“). But as I said, the biggest problem is the contrast.
New UI is crap. Love the features... hate the dark asymmetrical and quirkiness of the background. Hate it.
Dude, go scream in a pillow or something. You've posted this, like, ten times.
Anyone know how I can import midi to multiple tracks? Import is replacing the whole song on a single track. Could not find information in the manual about this.
im generally a huge fan of gadget and the update, but even i have to admit the new interface is hard to read
I think it depends on the type of MIDI file you are importing. There are two types - 1 and 0, and one of them stores MIDI on separate tracks, but I'm nut sure which one.
What you see is due to accessibility options you set. I believe you turned transparency off.
Okay, helpful to at least know that is the approach. Will test some things.
Update: Can't find the format indicator in Reaper, but simply putting on different midi channels works. Thanks for steering me in the right direction.
Worth repeating I think. Not enraged, it’s just an objectively ugly design choice and pretty much everyone concurs.
I like it. No problem with seeing the grid, really, even though my eyes are pretty lousy.
solved... wish I could delete posts
Same here. Was thinking about buying some reading glasses
Love that when placing notes on the grid you hear it before letting go. Suits my style. Love the saturator. The colors. Track naming. The easy automation. Took a little break to really use au plugins (still will) but I’M BACK
My major pet peeve is that i though fades were going to be in zurich to solve that problem. Not fade in/out fir the whole scene. That i can do while mastering. But i’ll take it
I've been too lazy to check and my eyes are about go bananas with the gradients but do the audio-gadgets now do time-stretching? (I mean they do use a LOT more CPU in Gadget 2 compared to the previous version).
What's wrong with Capture and Insert scene? I mean - Ableton Midi clips are not patterns, so something like Geist's approach wouldn't really work - you need it to duplicate the currently playing clips to a new scene.
So, with the introduction of Taipei, the ability to import and play a midi file in gadget or even the new taipei is still is not possible????
I have existing gadget midi files, that gadget itself can't open with taipei? seriously?
Taipei is not a MIDI file player, it wasn’t advertised as one AFAIK. But, yes, MIDI file import is still basic. There are workarounds with e.g. Xequence or Modstep, so it’s not impossible, but it’s more work.
I think you are mistaking those that agree with you for everyone. Lots of people don't share your opinion but might not feel the need to mention it.
I’m still totally loving Gadget. Still no battery or heat issues, and wonderful having an iMS20 in there - particularly when you can easily automate the knobs.
Also loving the Koala sampler for added weirdness.
Happy days!
The idea is to capture the ‘state’ of the DAW.. it has nothing to do with if it’s a midi clip or not..
Capture and Insert is weak.. you need to make sure that your scene tab is in place then hit Cmd+Shift+I.. it’s a little demanding for a critical feature in song creation (for me)..
Now, why would anyone discontinue this app?
Edit... KRFT did it so well.. That too was discontinued.. Sorry didn’t mean to hijack the thread..
The majority of people then.
How would you know? The voices of people that speak out is not necessarily statistically representative. You are certainly entitled to your opinion,but a count of comments on a forum such as ours is not a statistically sound sample.
Mate I’m not going to debate with you. It’s ugly and a distraction and several people on this thread have given reasoned statements as to why it’s also bad for people with weak eyesight etc. Before the update no one was complaining about the UI, they were complaining about other lacking features. Now after the update features are still lacking and we’ve got an inferior UI. It matters because we paid big money and invested all our energies in this DAW, there are expectations that follow, namely don’t take away what we already paid for, including our preferred shade of blue.
Huh? Why do you say KRFT is “discontinued”?? What does that even mean?
