    So if you open on the device the safarei at the kit url http://lesproductionszvon.com/freesounds.htm , click on the link and press open in EG Pulse it works.

    Nope. Can not confirm.

    If you download it on you desktop computer and then send it via airdrop to the device, it works.

    Nope. Can not confirm. Tried from my Mac to Airdrop to iPad.
    Same result. EG Pulse opens but imports nothing.

  • There's a security check to add (I already added this, but I lost the code in the updates) when importing from File app. Anyway from airdrop should work already, strange.
    I'm also loading automatically the kit after import, so you already have pads assigned and ready to be played

    Maybe I’m wrong but in Cubasis the midi out seems to be outputing an octave down when drawing in the notes on the editor of Cubasis from the app in chromatic modes. Drawing a C3 but the playback in Cubasis is reflecting a c2 after drawing. To be clear it’s c3 on the grid but the sound coming out is a c2.

    And also directly recording into Cubasis from playing the pads in chromatic mode is only outputting c1 to the timeline no matter what notes are played. To be clear I’m attempting to bypass the sequencer section of the pulse AUv3 completely and just sequence directly in Cubasis. Is there a Cubasis issue or am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help u can offer

    Yeah the midi in is really messed up. Doesn’t work as expected.

    Oh boy, things were nearly perfect...this was an unexpected encounter.

    This is due to the fact that there is not a specification for what octave C60 is in. Different synth and now app devs may do it differently. See this and google other articles on the subject.

    http://computermusicresource.com/midikeys.html

    Yep. That’s a common mismatch between apps and even hardware. It’s just part of life with midi.

    @echoopera, are you having other midi in issues, or just that one?

    Thanks for the enlightenment. Pardon my ignorance to this and how it’ll probably read, as I’m not trying to be inconsiderate to our hard working devs, but I’m curious: the ‘fix’ needs to come from which side? EG or Cubasis? Or is it hopeless?

    It's not a bug. You just need to be aware that octave numbering is ambiguous and that different apps and synths may use different octave numbering. The actual midi note numbers are the same but what they call the octaves varies.

    Dont give up using midi mapping can sort this out. You only need to remap in one of those apps.

    I see what you mean here. Pulse is outputting C1 plus a pitch-bend message rather than individual notes. My guess is this is how Pulse is handing things internally, and it probably plays back from Cubasis correctly, but would actually make trying to edit those patterns in or sequencing them in Cubasis’s piano roll really messy.

    Yeah the midi in is really messed up. Doesn’t work as expected.

    Specifically what about the midi in seems messed up? The issues you’ve described above are about the midi output, not input. Is it just the differing octave schemes?

    It might be helpful if you provide more details about what you’re trying to do in Cubasis, and how it’s not working for you. Pulse may just not designed to work as you would like it’ll , but there may be a workaround.

    Great app. Very inspirational. It would be great if timestretching could get some love in future updates. Loops don’t stay in time after they are “synced” unless I’m something. It seems they have to be resynced. Gravy would be if loop start/stop trimming could snap to note divisions. Even better would be if loops could be transposed without changing tempo.

    Currently, pressing the sync button does a one-time adjustment to the tempo at the time you press the button. It doesn't adjust the time-stretching on the fly if you have tempo changes.

  • @ecamburn thanks for the feedback! :) Yes at the moment sync is just temporary, so if you change tempo you need to resync (I'll see if I can automate this).
    About loop start/stop start already is on the note division, what do you exactly mean?

  • edited October 2019

    @ElliottGarage thanks for clarifying how timestretching works in Pulse. In addition to the adsr envelope it would be handy to be able to trim loops (destructively or non destructively) according to snap values. A useful implementation of this IMO is AudioShare’s “Trim & Fade” tool. If you tap Snap and click Snap to Beat, the cursor snaps to beat values. AS also displays the length of the loop in beats which is helpful. I’m happy to cut and transpose loops outside of Pulse but it would be great to do this sort of thing inside of Pulse. I’m sure this is way easier said than done. ;) Hope this makes sense

  • EG Pulse will be in live streaming with Doug on TheSoundTestRoom! Don’t miss it at 8.00 pm UK Time

  • and here's the streaming by Doug :)

  • The Read function when on allows for pitch etc to be modified and when off, those settings wont apply but how does the read function translate to each page. Theres a read button on every page so maybe it does more than to show pitch modifications. Just asking as it makes everything louder when on or off. Like its also part of the volumes. Could just leave it on the setting that has best volume and which allows for modification but should really find out how to gain control over the read setting. The chromatic scale is great. Wasnt sure what it would be for but it assist samples obviously.

  • A decent question. Noticed in song mode that some stuff copies and translates to a copy, which is good. Not sure how many workings copy but is there a way to not copy stuff. Maybe its a button or part of song mode being on or off, or maybe it cant not copy.

  • @ElliottGarage - would like it if quantize setting would save to bank. As it is, it appears to always go to default quantize after saving and then reopening. Thanks - excellent app!

  • @sigma79 read button always refer to pitch, volume and pan settings in the automation view. In song mode you need to select in the bottom bar of 16 patterns the groove to add and the press the add button.

    @ALB thanks for the feedback. Quantize is intended as a temporary working tool, anyway I can store it in the preset if needed :)

    PS update 1.10 just submitted

  • Hi man. Cheers. App is good. Will be an app that will be in most tunes.

    Thank you sir, for your hard work and responsiveness!

  • @ElliottGarage I get the feeling that the start & end selectors in the sample editor are not always 'accurate' and behave a bit weird. (Sometimes the playback starts ahead of the start point and sometimes it goes past the end point?!).

    The locators seem to get 'confused' as to where in the sample they should actually be when zooming in and out?!

    If/When you look into this the crop/trim and normalize options would be highly appreciated as well :)

    I'm on 1.10 Appstore release.

  • Thanks @Samu I'm gonna take a look at it and also the crop and normalize options...

    Yes update 1.10 is available right now. Did you check the low latency mode?
    Also it should fix the drumkit import :)

    1.10

    • Sample pitch detection and pitch transpose in Sample Editor view
    • Setting to enable low latency mode
    • Fixed import of drumkit
    • Fix for Pad Midi out to other instruments (pads must be set on HOLD to play notes on external instruments)
    • Fixed crash on audio recording (Standalone version)
    • Fixed iPhone 7 & 8 family visualization as AU3
    • iPhone X family view optimization for notch

    Yepp, enabled it when I saw and response is better now ;)

    I don't want to 're-train' my muscle memory so an option for the 1st pad on lower left instead of upper left would also be appreciated.(Then again I can use other apps to trigger EG Pulse but the feels like an awkward workaround).

    As for drum sounds, Fractal Bits is a pretty nice source for new sounds :)

    Hm. Not on my end. Downloaded latest App-Store version, started, quit, imported the kit from above.
    EG Pulse opens only showing this screen (which is more than before but i would not consider this fixed):

    Hmmm, the kit import worked for me, how strange that its giving you grief.

  • edited October 2019

    @MrBlaschke yes, very strange...I'm thinking if there may be some kind of general permission settings in the device...
    It appears the same message even from airdrop?

  • @Samu said:

    Yeah, that's one of the greatest features of Pulse IMO. It is so dead easy to sample a series of one shots from all of the different noise makers on ios then slice to pads in Pulse. I feel like Pulse is allowing me to take greater advantage of the tools I already own.

  • Thanks for the update.. 1st thing I tried was the kit import from zvon.. It was still sitting in my Downloads folder on iCloud so I tried that.. got this pop-up message. Dragged the kit into On My iPad folder, tried again and had success.. hopefully the details in the error message can help to sort it out..

  • @royor thanks for the feedback, so it seems like the problem was the folder in which the kit was contained...coluld you try deleting the kit from app (swipe on the kit name in the KITS section to access an additional menu) and try again from the Downloads folder and see if the same error appears?

  • Yes.. I get a similar error.. from Downloads folder.

  • @ElliottGarage Whoops.. scratch that.. it seems I may have NOT deleted it.. the OK to delete button is on the left.. I probably pushed Cancel instead.. Tried the whole thing again - first checking to make sure I actually had deleted the kit - and it seemed to work from the Downloads folder.. sorry for the goof-up on the last one.

  • @royor no problem...so I'm still confused on why is not working for @MrBlaschke !!
