Definite facts!
Man, I almost had GAS for a new laptop for a second there, lol. I hope Bitwig makes it to iOS, but I doubt it. Would be great to have a "full DAW" on iPad, but my current set-up gets me to where I want to go just fine.
AH YES, I love FLSM! It's what I exclusively use on my iPhone.
Checked that, there is just receiving enabled (and in NS2 just to be sure i enabled just sending) ..
there is for sure no problem on digitakt or ipad side cause just switching from bluetooth to cable solves problem and clock is rock solid ..
I never clicked with Gadget. For whatever reason.
Sounds like an issue with your dongles then. I can sync over BT dongles with up to 999bpm so it does work here.
When I got Gadget, I very quickly ended up making around ten new songs because it was a very different environment and I seem to like novelty… plus it really IS a fun environment, especially with the options for the Gadgets’ keyboards.
Then, there they sat on my iPad for months, so I exported the tracks as audio… a little before Korg released the Mac plugin suite.
I bought the plugins and exported all my Gadget songs to MIDI tracks and into Logic, using the Gadget plugins there. I ended up revamping a lot of them and adding to them inside Logic.
The only problem was finding equivalents to the Gadget FX, which was a struggle. They’re not specifically special, but they’re unique. It took a third-party bit crusher plug-in to replace the Gadget one.
Then I archived and deleted all my Gadget projects from the iPad to start fresh… and never did a thing more in it. 🤷🏽♂️
I own most of the IAP Gadgets and Korg iOS apps and I hope they keep them maintained. At this point, my only gripe is the lack of everything Korg supporting AU3.
This thread has me thinking about revisiting Gadget. It definitely inspired me to make different music from what I’d been doing in Logic. The last time I had that kind of stylistic shift was when I went from trackers to MIDI and synths, ages prior.
Loved the ease of sound design in Gadget; hated its timeline/arranger which I found to be incredibly restrictive coming from a long-long-time Cubase background (all the way back to the Atari days…).
I started & finished 2 tracks with Gadget that felt like I was always fighting with the timeline/arrangement process - it wasn’t a particularly enjoyable process for me if I’m honest.
NS2 came out, haven’t opened Gadget since. I don’t feel guilty about that.
Whenever I jump back into Gadget I’m
amazed how quickly I can sketch a great idea out. Really wish they updated it with some exciting new Gadgets and/or robust features instead of only dropping sound expansions for it which are great but it’s called Gadget. We need new gadgets in it. Also wish that all of the IAP sounds for the Korg Module Pro such as KApro Cinematic sounds were accessible in the Mac version of Gadget. Those sounds are excellent quality.
This inspired me to dive back into Gadget again and I forgot just how much I love this app. It really is a great one.
