@mifki I've been testing out the latest beta update and seem to have found an issue. It works as expected on iOS 15 but I’m also using it on an Air 1 that’s on 12.5.5 and it’ll open in standalone but not as an audio unit. I tested it out in AUM and Drambo and have deleted it and reinstalled as well as power cycle my iPad but I’m getting the crash consistently
Version 3.70 is out:
APP FEATURES
Incompatible ports are now dimmed when dragging a cable.
Added a button to mark modules as favorite from their menus.
Added protection from repeated crashes if there's a problem loading a patch on miRack launch.
Added 32- and 64-sample audio buffer size options.
Number of DSP threads can now be increased in settings (only in standalone mode). Use this with caution, on newer devices and only if required for a large patch.
MODULES
BUG FIXES
Fixed editing LPG responce/decay in Audible Instruments Macro Oscillator 2.
Fixed FPS setting is not applied after restarting miRack.
Fixed incorrect operation when double-tapping toggle switches.
Fixed incorrect behaviour of several MSM modules.
Fixed a freeze when loading samples.
Great update! Mog and Lifeform modules are a fun addition.
Oooh cool! Back to mirack!
Awesome. Any new filters in this batch?
Looks like Christmas came early!
Just Southpole Etagere EQ filter and Deux Etagres EQ filter (stereo).
Cool. Thanks Wim.
I'd love to see the Surge XT rack modules added.
Unfortunately GPL licensed code isn't allowed on the App Store.
Is there a list of which MiRack modules are replications of physical modules? I know about the MI clones and Befaco pieces, but I'm wondering about others which may not be familiar to me.
Thanks!
I think the Turing machine one is a replica
just got a big update:)
Looks like a good one, too. Not had chance to play with it much, but I like the sound of more efficient CPU usage. Plus a batch of new modules!
I don't know how he did it-
but CPU usage is lower than the original VCV Rack...:)
check for yourself.
mad
It always has been much lower. Even better now. 😎
Nice update, out of the blue, hadn't seen any beta.
great, was waiting for this
Just downloaded the update. I finally have the chance to pour through miRack (at least to see all the modules it has), and this new update is fantastic. Even more modules to look at.
As a lot of you know, I'm just getting (re)started with miRack. Will probably first use it as an effects unit in AUM, and then dig more into simple generative patches, and go on from there.
How does this sound when compared to Drambo?
i think this is more about workflow than about sound .. both apps are greatly capable modular enviroments, withbalmost unlimited posibilities and high quality sound - with very different approach .. personally I like miRack very much and using it often, on other side not enjoying Drambo’s approach at all, the worklfow just doesn’t clicked with me (at least not for siruations when i want to do modular stuff)
That's impossible to answer. They're modular. They sound like what you stick together. miRack has more choices of modules. Drambo is polyphonic whereas miRack is primarily monophonic unless you do a lot of trickery.
As Dendy says, it's not about the sound, it's about the workflow. They're both modular, but the approach toward modularity and sequencing are vastly different between the two of them.
For me it comes down to: miRack for generative stuff, Drambo for sequenced stuff. But that's just me.
i use mirack just for simple patches like this .. for synths and fxs .. and then i have multiple instances of such simple patches in project
@Antos3345
The beauty of both MiRack and Drambo (and hardware modular, too) is that no two people will use them in the same way. I have both, though Drambo was a more recent acquisition and so far I haven’t got to grips with it - MiRack feels like a much more comfortable place for me (your mileage way very well vary).
You can use MiRack like @dendy - small patches in separate instances, or make big all in one patches. Or a kind of combination approach, using the multiple ins and outs version in AUM, where you have one big patch but housing several sub-patches processing different audio channels or MIDI.
MiRack + AUM turns your collection of AUv3s into extra modules (in a way), and the fact you can pipe audio and MIDI in and out to hardware (plus some CV with the right audio interface) makes for a really powerful setup. I assume Drambo has similar possibilities (plus polyphony if that’s important to you). These are hugely powerful tools if you get on with the way they work.
They do require a different approach to standalone synths (for want of a better description), where you download the synth, read the manual and learn what it can do. With modular tools, you’re mostly starting from a lower level, ie the parts that are already built in and configured in a fixed architecture synth. And some of the modules won’t have an obvious purpose initially (or even after a long time!). And there’s no fixed way to use the modules, so you can use sequencers as modulators, LFOs as sequencers etc etc.
Anyone have any success running MiRack on multiple ipads via Ableton link? I have link on, LinkV2 by Stellare on the rack and nothing. Can't find anything on YouTube or searching Google.
I'm able to make it set the tempo if I have some other app such as Audiobus or AUM set the tempo and manage the transport. However, the clock output is bugged, possibly in the same way @mifki just fixed for the host sync module.
Here's how I managed to get it to work (all steps for both instances):
Add the Link module.
Add the host sync module (yes, even if in standalone mode).
Add the Clocked module
Patch host sync Run to Clocked Run and Clock to BPM (Yes, this is correct)
Use another app such as AUM on either device to start/stop transport and set BPM
Not ideal having to use another app for tempo and start/stop, but seems to work.
[edit] added wiki entry
It seems like the Link module could really use Run and Clock or BPM inputs like Clocked has. At a minimum, you should be able to start/stop and set the tempo from within miRack.
Anyone tried hosting MiRack as an auv3 within logic, and is it stable/does it correctly receive and output multichannel audio and midi tracks like in AUM? Thinking about upgrading my iPad so I can use this, I use MiRack pretty extensively and pretty familiar with using Logic on a Mac, a combination of the two would be perfect for me.
