    I am not satisfied with Playbeat's AUv3 implementation:
    1. It does not show up as a MIDI source or destination. (Unlike Riffer)
    2. The presets are not exposed to the host (AUM, apeMatrix)
    3. There are no automation parameters exposed to the host (AUM, apeMatrix)
    4. There is no state saving?

    The only way to route MIDI into the host is to route it out from Playbeat, which means the host will never be able to save the routing.

    I agree. @Audiomodern it would be great to see these issues fixed. Thanks!👍

    @mojozart they made an update and with it came the fix for the statesaving 👍🏼 Working now!

    @mojozart I agree with you. Playbeat is a great app but its MIDI implementation should be better. I hope in a (near) future update.

    To be honest, I am struggling with the save/presets implementation. Just not that intuitive (to me). Have lost a number of patterns by misunderstanding or overwriting. Has happened three or four times: Get frustrated, walk away for a week, come back, repeat etc. Not blaming the app per se. Just UX and as devs know you certainly can't please all the idiots all the time and on this one I'm certainly the idiot, more's the pity.

    Seems ok in standalone. There’s no ‘load’ button, so you double tap a name in the list, and then one of the two save options, for saving.

    Had a few crashes in AUM recently.

    @JohnnyGoodyear Now that you mention it, the preset system is a bit wonky.. I’m usually just randomizing whatever is on the screen and not worried about even keeping presets.. BUT.. from page 31 in the manual.. hope it helps..

  • ToastedghostToastedghost

    Is there a way to using midi to changes patterns or presets? If so what would you use?

    Yessir. Might well be my fat calloused fingers. I've noticed even when choosing samples (Kick, snare etc) from their list, I often have to hit it ten times to get going....will give it another go.

    I appreciate you snapping/posting. I will go back and have another consistent fiddle.

    I'm pretty sure you are supposed to double tap to load a sample.

    Believe me, I double tap, triple salkow tap, spin and beat and incant, make promises, wheedle and whine :)

    Yeah me too, never got the hang of that one. Partly due to me not putting enough effort in, as it just seems easier to get the same effect with different tools. Also see NS2, BM3 etc.

    Experiencing something strange, anyone else? When I change presets within Playbeats inside AUM using either internal keyboard or Woodstepper the DSP often jumps well beyond 100 even if only 1 version of Playbeats is playing and nothing else playing. Is this a bug?

    ...and then the timing drifts. This is my endless pain with Playbeat.

    Time drifts not experienced yet but DSP spikes yes. This introduces a crackle into the mix

    I’m getting this in AUM on my phone. I’m presuming this is for iPads only?!

    Playbeats zombies out in AUM sometimes when a new app is loaded. Still love it despite its erratic behavior.

    Yeah happening to me too. However, the randomiser comes up with some really usable beats.

    Need help connecting it to send midi to KEW standalone for the drums. I believe the drums run midi channels 9-16 but no matter what connection it simply wont play anything 😳

    So I’m using it in AUM as midi strip to KEW as IAA. Any setup help appreciated.

    @david_2017 said:
    Sure, mate.

    I think this screenshot explains is already pretty much. If any thing is still unclear. Let me know.

    Playbeat is in a MIDI Strip.

    Had a quick test with Fractal bits and this worked like a charm!

    Amazing point release! Great addition to a very cool generative Plug

    Hi David, can you explain to me how can I connect it to Fractal Bits? I tried to do it with no success. Thanks in advance

  • drewinnitdrewinnit

    I’m experiencing the same cpu spikes. Never had a single glitch from AUM until I started using playbeat. It’s lots of fun to mess about with but I don’t think I could trust it in a live performance setting :(

    And thank you @david_2017 , your screenshot explaining midi really helped me get playbeat to play well with my other drum apps

    Do you have the latest version? they pushed another update that dealt with the clock and timing things...
