OODA FROM AUDIO SYMMETRIC.

I really enjoyed the beta and bought it asap, the ability to enter my own notes is really great! Also all parameters are exposed and organized in AUM, so I don’t quite see the complain about them. Scales also seem out of focus as you enter your own notes anyway. For me, except for a velocity range (but you can use three levels of velocities through accents), everything is perfect. For some more humanization, I like to add drambo’s humanize module after that. MIDI curve is also great for this.

Personally I had complained about parameter automation within Cubasis 3, I don’t really use AUM . I think that that is the reason why others had complained, too. ZOA wasn’t too great at that either, but OODA seems to really not work with that. At least for me.

I’m really loving Ooda so far. Congrats @rygrob. It’s really well designed and produces really musical results.

Being able to introduce velocity variation would bring some nice life to sequences. I think @Poppadocrock has already suggested allowing velocity range per voice rather than a single value with random velocity values within the range.

@rygrob OODA IS #1 is US AppStore Music Category ZOA is #4 Congratulations!

I'm looking forward to exploring ZOA and OODA. They're the most musical "generative sequencers". And the presets are great; I'm like "Woah, this one could be the intro for an Animal Collective song. And this one too!"

Ha, I hadn't thought about it like that before but it's true!

I see, thanks for the clarification of Cubase vs AUM behavior!

Wow everyone, thanks for helping make this my strongest launch yet! If you like OODA, please take the time to leave a rating or review, it really helps the long term outlook of the app.

Also, yeah I've recently noticed that ZOA and OODA don't play super well with Cubasis ... I'll plan to spend some time making them work better there in a future update.

I couldn't wait, but wish it wasn't on sale simply for the fact that this brilliance deserves recognition. So, I grabbed ZOA too! Thanks for making such a neat app. I mean this as a compliment, but these are right up there with Riffer, Chordjam, Playbeat 3 and Rosetta in my eyes, and those are some of the most used apps on my iPad!

I’m excited to dive into this! The AudioModern stuff is among my all time favorites on iOS. Playbeat is my most used drum machine right now.

Thanks for all you do! That would be great as cubasis is my go to DAW generally.

Love Zoa and Autopad, so super excited to dive into OODA

A little mess around with Ooda a mandolin patch and a couple of Hammerheads

Anyone know if Ooda (and also zoa) working well in Apematrix?

Thanks ! 🥰

Cubasis3 is practically the only DAW I use nowadays.. so getting OODA and ZOA to better support it would be hyper! ❤️

They both work well for me in apeMatrix

Great synths, daws and effects are definitely always welcome, but it is apps like this making it to the platform that push me to create in new ways!

I’ve been using a DAW for 20 years now, making music for almost 30, and every day find myself doing thing I would never have thought on the iPad! Cutting samples on my phone, recording impulse responses in a car or a friends bathroom, making a beat on the couch. It sucks for developers that feel isolated or abandoned by the platform, but I have faith that really cool shit is still going to happen here!

I don’t know if this helps to give it a nudge up on the future update priority list but Cubasis is also my main DAW. As a recent convert over to iOS I haven't gotten used to the AUM paradigm of working yet or figured out how I plan to record and edit midi arrangements and automation in it yet. I bought both OODA and ZOA today but haven't had much of a chance to try it yet so I don’t have much to say about it yet otherwise. Looks like people are loving it though

Nice! OODA and ZOA both make excellent drum sequencers indeed.

skiphunt

I didn’t catch this at first myself… but both Zoa & OODA are completely universal. iPhone, iPad AND macOS. Not just the iOS versions running on desktop, but actually a macOS version.

Both run great on the Mac.

Hate to admit it, but I’m completely dependent on Cubasis3 nowadays . Even though I own plenty of great alternatives (AUM, Drambo, GarageBand, Audio Evolution, NanoStudio2, SunVox, Multitrack DAW, FL mobile), with the exception of ambient stuff (which I use Wotja for), I pretty much use only Cubasis3 as my driver for making music on the go. Been like that for a pretty while now, too 😔 oh well..

Gavinski

I think there are now 3 Ooda threads 😂. @LinearLineman @McD do i remember that you guys are admins? Could you maybe merge the threads? Cheers!

[Deleted User]

@Thacapos why didn't I think of that!!! thanks

LinearLineman

Sorry @Gavinski. Been a couple of years since I doffed that hat. 🙏😎

thepinkelefant

@rygrob Is there a Randomizer option in there ? I was not able to find one….would be cool to randomize different settings and also midi notes separately as an option

ecamburn

I don’t think there’s a button to randomize settings but one of the voice rules is random which randomly selects midi notes.

I could not agree more. I love all the synths and drum machines on iOS but it’s the effects and generative sequencers that make it for me. And unique stuff you can’t get anywhere else like Borderlands.

I’ve been at it (making music) since I was a kid and using DAWs most of that time. Now I’m 30 and find something new everyday with the iPad. Never felt more creative. Using it along with my OP-1 opens up so many possibilities.

Tyronn

Such a superb app - love it !!!

Does anybody have a workaround in AUV3 to add a bit of swing to what is generated?

I would also like to have a way to have what is generated not hit right on the 8th or 32nd etc.. as it is limited to 32nds I am not sure there is this flexibility?

cheers for any help

ecamburn

Really loving Ooda. Having some basic step editing functionality would be nice. For example being able to delete and re-record a single step. As it is now if you make a mistake you have to re-record the whole sequence. I’d love to be wrong about this.

With record active and the sequencer stopped, you can select any recorded step and enter new notes, which overwrite the existing notes. All the other recorded steps stay the same.

I requested a global swing in beta. Hopefully he is considering it. @rygrob what do ya think? Global swing?

There are a couple Mozaic scripts that add swing, joc do ya Len, and swing, I think they are called. Otherwise record the midi in Atom 2 or Xequence 2 then play it from there adding swing.

There is a way to do it. It’s in one of the videos on his YouTube channel. Unfortunately I can not remember what the process was.
