It's actually been quite some time since I've actually tried to create a full track because at one point it crashed every time I started a beat. Literally 2 AUs in. And it hasn't received an update since so I just gave up on it. I've started a few beats with just samples and it's ran fine but I don't like that workflow. Never owned an MPC so not how I like to make music. If I remember correctly D1 was the AU, but it didn't crash other hosts for me so Idk. Other content creators have been talking about the crashes as well. To the point where Henny doesn't even use it anymore.
I have a folder on my ipad labelled 'risky plugins'.
D1 is in that folder.
Yes, but how stable is Vim in BM3? That's the real question.
Now ... this is trolling.
When BM3 gets a sizable update, I'll try it again.
Nice. Locks!
Can crash it in 1 minute cause of a known bug
But I don’t use it anymore . On a yearly update I check if very old bugs are present (still are) and delete it . Reinstalled it waiting for the update , maybe 3 years it’s the lucky number!
Take your shiny positive energy to Intua forum ...
On topic
It would be nice assigning specific macros for XY pad.
He's the moderator over there.
... and a good one too btw.
What an extremely well done video @tk32.
Yes , I’m aware ( I was in the forum , left , never looked back )
Haha. A good old BM3 discussion on ABF. Almost as entertaining as a good old NS2 discussion!
We’ll reminisce in years to come about these jovial barbs and smarts. The ones who couldn’t take it anymore and stormed off into the wherever they went. The ones who stayed the course. The flag wavers and the tomato chuckers.
I’m going to write a musical about it.
In BM3.
No NS2.
I’ve been not messin with bM3 very much while on the hardware rodeo, but been opening it up recently and falling in love all over again. Stoked for an update. And I only get crashes when I use risky AU audio sources (fm player 2 was the worst one) but damn she stable af with a gajillion instances of KQ Dixie or beathawk
Edit: and never add or remove AU fx while the sequencer is running! That’ll do it almost every time
The macro locks are only available in the beta, for the time being, is that correct?
I use Bm3 exclusively with tons of AU’s and and samples only have a problem with certain synth plugins when trying to reload a project...most of the old audiokit ones (including d1) and SynthMaster are really the only major culprits for me...sometimes layr can slow it down if using more than one instance, and it’s obviously a problem if you load up like 30 au’s in the same project..but I wouldn’t expect it not to be....
Anyway, since the last update a year ago, Bm3 is pretty stable, and for the features it offers, I’ll take pretty stable
Also, for a good workaround to those problem synths, it’s very easy to just sample whatever I need from them (a melody for instance) into a bank and onto a pad and then just unload the plugin
It used to work in AB3 (for hosting AUs there) , but it seems now it’s not loading anymore .
I launched BM3 first as usual ,but still no joy ... maybe Intua will add offline rendering to pad feature
💯
I experience enough crashes with AUv3 apps in the current version that I put it on the back burner. I’m not interested in harshing on BM3 or the devs, it’s the most stable release yet by far. Like everything, it could use more work. I’m looking forward to the next release as an opportunity to fire it up again.
I can’t disagree, as I’m prone to this way of thinking every time it crashes. I should take note and file a proper bug report next time.
Maybe this update will be an iphone bm3 version! With that and stability im back in.
Also noted the crashy plug ins mentioned TY
Look what the iPhone update did for NS2... (wot no audio tracks?)
🤣
Sorry, I’m just in a daft mood this evening. I know this is a loooongstanding request.
For one when we did a space x challenge, that file kills my iPad so I have to restart iPad a couple times. So I can’t find out why because umm yeah my iPad locks up soon as it’s opened.
Lo-Fly dirt and audio kit apps I can’t use and couple others I can’t think of right now. So all I’m doing now is mixing in it. When I bring bass stems over they crackle when placed in timeline. I end up putting my samples on pads so they choke when entering next pattern.
When I export stems half of them show up so I have to do that process a couple times.
And when you using the mixer and you bring the level up slowly it always jumps to zero level and have to restart the level again. Not a bug but irritating all the same.
Yes all the bells and whistles are nice and luv to see them but let’s see a video where bm3 is advertised and a heavy session is done. It’s supposed to be the big dawg. But it never wants to play in the yard with the others.
You asked and you received. Go ahead and criticize with your work around and smart remarks.
Supposed no one mentioned Drambo yet. You want a troll there it is.
Honest question here, do we know what AU apps to avoid in BM3 to make for a stable experience?
Release coming soon, so you'll have it hopefully next week. Depends on how long Apple takes.
Hopefully the next release will be more stable for you te keep it this time.
There is a list but not 100% sure of all the apps. I do know D1 and synthmaster do it from time to time and some of the other audiokit apps. The problem is it's not really easy to figure out why. Can't really pinpoint it.
@gusgranite
NS2 and BM3 are some of the most loved/hated apps in this forum. Lots of people still use them tho.
The latest Digital D1 version is unstable for me in Auria Pro, too. Bummer because I sketched something using D1 with an earlier version in Auria Pro, but the project crashes on launch. After a while, I discovered a way to get the project to launch and found that if I removed D1, the project reloaded fine. It's a shame cuz there are some patches I've put together with it that I really like.
Midi recording fixed in beta?
Not so much stability per se but sadly I cannot seem to automate Turnado without the cursed vertical automation of doom squishy thingy bug.
Two things could get me to come back to BM3 in a significant way. Automation becoming more reliable and recording the output of a bank to an audio track. I would love to just load up a couple AU FX on a bank and just noodle with them for five minutes knowing that the output is being safely recorded to an audio track. As it is this is a coin toss for me. I mess around with fx while recording only to find... nothing, blank audio track. So frustrating! Even better, if the sample to pad option that is next to the keyboard could be there on the FX window.
