    Thanks. Already use Auditor as my main iOS audio editor so saw the 4Pockets announcement and then promptly emptied my brain of its existence! :)

    Ditto, especially as it for now seems to be limited to dealing with 16-bit files...

    genuine question, what does this offer over DigiStix or any other drum sequencer? Ta

    @jonmoore :Can you free record in this I.e. play in real time and bypass the steps?

    Having MIDI mapping/channel per sequence would be amazing.
    Also.. velocity and custom CC automation (like Cykle does)
    This is polyrhythm paradise

    Not really sure but it’s fast, flexible and light and has mappings for so many iOS drums

    I love it. Feels close to patterning which I also love.

  • jonmoorejonmoore

    I'd agree this is a close as an AUv3 gets to the Patterning 2 step sequencer. In fact, it's more flexible than the Patterning 2 step sequencer.

    The core differences to standard drum sequencers are its UX, modulatable polyrhythms, modulable mutations, ease of shifting hits off-grid, ratcheting, chance, and skip.

    The biggest difference is that it's been created to be mapped to a midi controller to modulate your patterns in real-time in very unique ways. You can shift left/right, rotate, randomize, mirror, reverse, double and bisect your patterns. And that's what mean by modulatable polyrhythms; say you have a hit looping on 12 and a hit looping on 16, you can easily modulate that to 24 and 16 whilst the pattern is playing. This makes it far more of a performance step sequencer than you typically get on iOS.

    manual is up at https://cornedriesprong.github.io/polybeat-user-manual.html (link in app is still broken...)

  • cuberoo_cuberoo_

    +1 for velocity.

    real shame to not support velocity as I want to use with FAC Drumkit and kits mapped in segments, both which support velocity, and so many more apps to boot.

    @cp3 in the manual under midi input it says:

    • 32 add

    what is meant by this operation (add)?

    You just got my attention with polyrhythms... I have had to use Mozaic scripts to create 2:3, 3:4 by running 2 scripts and tweaking the PPQN parameter. (Which means 2 copies of AUv3 drum apps might do the same thing, duh.) Anyway... these differences indicate this app is worth investigating.

    Still, need more audio demos of what it can do musically. Are there any video reviews yet?

  • Model10000Model10000

    Do the top functions like randomize only affect the selected lane/track?

    Cool thanks. Feel like a lot of this can be done already, but this UI would be much less of a kludge. Will grab it if I know it’s going to get velocity.

    As others have said, it’s a good replacement for Patterning. I’ve been in the process of uninstalling everything that isn’t AUv3 each time I find a replacement, so this is the one for Patterning.

    Oh, and another +1 for velocity.

    Does it support multiple patterns and if so how you you build up into a piece / song? Ta

  • jonmoorejonmoore

    @NimboStratus said:

    I does support multiple patterns and these are hard mapped to MIDI notes 0-7. Personally speaking, I’m hoping that we get configurable MIDI trigger notes and more than 8 pattern snapshots. I tend to create lots of subtle variations with my patterns in and 8 patterns isn’t enough to cover.

    The dev seems to be open and flexible, and has mentioned that the current MIDI mapping is a work in progress.

    So I would need to use atom or helium to send the midi 0-7 in?

  • [Deleted User][Deleted User]

    yeh 8 patterns is rather limiting... why these artificial limitations? (well I assume they are artificial, what would I know about coding...)
    @NimboStratus yeh, or LK etc, or trigger the notes live from a keyboard...

  • jonmoorejonmoore

    @NimboStratus said:

    Indeed. Any sequencer will do the trick. It works in latch mode, meaning any new triggered pattern beggins when the last pattern ends.

  • NimboStratusNimboStratus

    That’s CC0-7 or is it like a note C0-7?

    Thanks, how does this differ to shift right?

    I've been playing around with sending midi messages to mute and so on and it seems that it would be useful for operation messages to include a track ID, e.g.:

    mute: Note(27), Value(track)

    without this how does one mute two tracks with the same timestep, without some way to ensure that the incoming messages are ordered correctly?

    It would be really cool to be able to insert/remove a note at a given position, so something like:

    insert: Note(X), Value (position << 32 | track) 
remove: Note(X), Value (position << 32 | track)

    Just noticed the ride cymbal in the tr-09 map is off - it should be note 51 - right now it's triggering the crash.
    I am looking forward to see how Poly develops - it is great to have more than 8 channels for drums.

    Have you explored all the MIDI mapping presets?

    It’s note number not CC.
