for those of us that use controllers with endless encoders, e.g. push 2, twister, and xone in my case, then this would not be such an issue.
although, i know that this would require for you to support endless encoders too :-)
For me pinch & zoom using fingers is way faster than using knobs, but that's personal preference...
I've tried to become 'friends' with knob-based sample editing in MPC Beats but it irks me to the point that I deleted the app completely from my desktop and I won't be re-installing it...
If 'knob based' editing would pop up it should be for incremental knobs only (ie. endless encoders) as the fixed knobs 0-127 would get wonky when you reach the end of the dial and need to get back to 0 or 127 without hmmm, moving the editing point...
To avoid 'clicks' when using the encoders it would have to be automatic next/previous x-crossing when moving the start & end points.
@elf_audio If you pursue the midi-knobs-for-sample-editng, please do first add proper support for selecting inputs/outputs on multi-channel interfaces (both iOS/macOS). USB L&R is a good start but when the interface has more ports having access to those could be handy as well... (like 1,2,3,4 (Mono) and 1&2, 3&4 (Stereo) etc. etc).
Cheers!
It would still be the same issue. Even with an endless encoder, there are still only 128 available CC values. The only difference is in the way the encoder signals a change in value either up or down rather than in absolute values.
Asking for months!
With endless controllers interpreted with relative midi, software can interpret the incoming increments as finely as it wants. It doesn't have to map to a range of 128 values. Without relative midi, one could use 14-bit midi. one cc for coarse adjustment and one for fine.
That's a good point about the software being able to interpret the up/down signal of the encoder. It would need some setting for the sensitivity on a per sample basis though. If you did that, you could do the same for sensitivity of absolute controllers as well. They wouldn't be quite as versatile as endless encoders though.
that's a good idea for a per sample sensitivity setting.

@elf_audio hi hope alls well. Can you put back the option to turn on/off background audio in settings. On my iPhone SE Koala sound is cut off if I switch to other apps whilst Koala is in play mode.
Also can you re add Interapp Host Sync On/Off setting. Not all apps have this option and makes Koala locked to Host Sync. I been trying to find the option to turn ON/OFF in AUM but can’t find it
Post deleted…didn’t realize I did not have the latest update.
@stormbeats it will be back in the next version, sorry about that! accidentally commented it out in the last update. I think you're going to like the next update, honestly I hope to call it the stormbeats update.
@elf_audio nice one thanks Looking forward to it
Seems much smoother since the last update …Thanks.
Can you ‘transpose’ all pads (whole project) 'globally' to a different key.... like the Launchpad app?
@elf_audio @RajahP this is a good suggestion
@RajahP the PITCH effect is actually just the global pitch.
@elf_audio true
Ok.. I’ll look at it.. but I think this makes the Launchpad app, magical..
Edit.. it brings ‘chills’ to hear a project fit into a totally different song, in a different key..
Stormbeats Update is out.
WOW! This Update is INSANELY GREAT!!!! @elf_audio
Brilliant update.
what is Stormbeats?
oh it’s a person not an app. lol
💥💥💥💥💥💥😎😎😎😎
the koala becomes more and more perfect… .super elf !!!!!
note repeat!! this just ratcheted this app up even higher. so helpful
@elf_audio
I’ve sent you a couple of pm’s, must’ve missed them in the post.
From the app store description:
Version 1.4051
This update is dedicated to STORMBEATS!
Note repeat keyboard with modulatable pitch or volume (and a free unsynced mode)
Mute/Solo (enable in extras)
Can now map most sample controls (e.g. sample start/length, attack, release tone etc)
Keyboard now supports velocity on the Y axis
piano roll is fullscreen giving you a bit more space
record latch so you can swipe up on a pad to lock it to record as a toggle
Many many fixes and tweaks
Straight 🔥🔥🔥 I was looking for a purchase button but seems these are baked in! 🤩
Holy shit the note repeat with pitch and being able to snap or not snap. This thing just blew a lot of things out of the water
Fantastic update
@stormbeats lol I remember you just bum rushing the feature requests on another app. GR-16 maybe? Great to see you giving your feedback on Koala 👍
Nice work @elf_audio - the beat goes on 👊
