What about Kansas? What could that mean?
After reading many of the comments from all over the various forums concerning gadget you would have to believe this is one of the best releases of any app I have seen to date. I can see why there are so many overwhelmingly positive comments given all gadget gives us but I seriously have never seen so much support for any other release to date. Is anyone else as stoked as me to see what the future holds for this app?
Can only record up to 8 bars length - does anyone find this limiting at all? Is there some kind of workaround to get a longer sequence of say 16 or 32 ?
No, you need to start another seen, you can duplicate them with the duplicate button when you want more bars the next scene will launch.
Anyone had issues with it crashing? I just lost the last hours work. Happened twice while drawing automation. Had about 5 gadgets with automation going on all of them. I'm on an ipad air. I'm guessing it was a memory crash. Bummer.
Some wild speculation: Maybe Gadget does not yet support Audiobus since it requires Audiobus 2 to give each synth track its own effects?
@badmaxton that is some excellent thinking. You could be on to something there.
I've had a couple of crashes, one while trying to load a demo and another random one, latency is an issue too at the moment. But this thing is still very cool and I'm sure Korg will get all these things sorted out very quickly. More testing today, oh and midi keyboard worked well.
I'm beta testing Audiobus 2. It doesn't show up either. It does show a text in settings "Background Audio". It says "Is automatically turned on while connected via Audiobus" or smth like that.
@soundtestroom latency is solved from settings. Works like a charm.
By the way guys. That PCM synth has nice sounds for more classic types of music. Too bad I deleted the scene and IT HAS NO UNDO.
I'd also like to know the story behind this one. You can't please everyone but from a design point of view, both in respect of form and function, its clear that a lot of thought went into this App. So many interesting decisions and the Gadgets look like a lot of love went into their creation.
Loved the analogy to Hot Wheels Cars above
interesting that there was not a whisper of this Apps existence before release.
This looks like a neat sketchpad in Gaz's video. I think the few objections (2 so far?
) are similar to what I'm thinking. The future of iOS music will probably follow the desktop - powerful DAWs with specialized IAA plugins that you can automate, tweak and control from the DAW. You buy separate standalone apps and they can be used as plugins from the DAW, but there will probably be an easier app switching interface too.
Right now we're not there yet, one DAW is missing MIDI, the other DAW's effects are not so great and so on. But when it will be, it will make all siloed apps and all studio apps that can't reach feature parity obsolete. Unless... they have something that a DAW can't easily replicate. e.g: the Cubasis sequencer will get better, but probably won't be as flexible as Thesys or as easy to use as Gadget's.
Is it possible to export MIDI-Files from Gadget? This would be essential to use it as a sketchpad. Dropbox export only generates a wav-file ...
Does not appear as though you can yet.
I am having an issue with recording. If I record say a couple of tracks on Scene 1, and then add a new Scene 2 and go to edit that, it is displaying Scene 2 but still playing and recording into Scene 1. That is surely a bug - can anyone else confirm this is happening?
Unlikely the demo on YouTube could have been recorded with that kind of limitation...

Yes, same things happens for me but if I add notes manually to a new Scene they appear in the Track on the new Scene OK. The horizontal layout of the tracks takes some getting used to though!
You need to switch to the scene on the scene screen by pressing the part on the left with the number. It's not a bug, it's the functionality of it, you have the looping on so it is playing the scene that is selected, meanwhile you can edit a sequence in another scene. Alternatively you could turn of the looping and then turn it back on when it starts to play the scene you're in.
Great, thanks, I'll give that a try.

Tokyo has a similar concept but is restricted by samples and lower tweakability. It would be good to have an electribe under the hood!

Is it me or my ipad has been arpeggiating my responses?

No its just you...
The Akai EIE has three USB ports for instruments, plus a computer/iPad USB port. I'm currently set up with three controllers and my iPad, and it works great.
Also, Griffin has some new iPad dock which looks nice, but Focusrite has better preamps.
