    Great update, thanks @giku_beepstreet

    A couple of possible bugs? The new modules don’t seem to be included in the ‘more specific categories’ option. For example, the Convolver isn’t included in the FX group.

    Searching for a module and then selecting from the options shown doesn’t dismiss the onscreen keyboard when the keyboard is in floating mode.

    You mean the ASCII keyboard, right?
    Which device and iOS version?
    Standalone or AUv3? Which host, if so?

    hi there guys. just got the ew update.
    i’m trying to use the app but it ask about drambo folder which i can’t seem to find in files app. any ideas what the issue could be?

    Did you launch the stand-alone after downloading the update? (and to be on the safe side also reboot your iPad?).
    (I've only been able to test it with iPadOS15 & 16 and it works in both of them).

    i did and also rebooted iPad. i’ve got the folder issue to work by reinstalling Drambo. but now i get no sound at all if i tap on auv3 midi keyboard like scaler. i’m on ipados 16.2

    Put the Audio Unit Midi Processor Module with Scaler 2 before the first Midi to CV on a Track and it should work.

    Nice on @Samu thanks for the heads-up. That helps but the red button issue still persists .

    Nice on @Samu thanks for the heads-up al sorted.

    It should work the way you did it too if you check the patching (ie. gates etc. need to be pulled from module hosting scaler).
    I find it easier to tuck Midi AUv3's before an existing Midi to CV modules to reduce patching.

    The fun thing is that you determine the length of the loop yourself, by holding a number of pads/keys simultaneously: The more pads you press, the longer the loop gets.
    And by choosing which pads you press, you're telling the Punch-In Looper which slices to include in the loop.

    Hey @rs2000 , maybe you can clarify, what’s the difference between slices/range mode option in Punch-in looper?

    Hey @rs2000 , maybe you can clarify, what’s the difference between slices/range mode option in Punch-in looper?

    In slice mode, you can build your loop from individual slices: The loop will only include the slices according to the pads held. The more pads you hold, the longer the loop will be, and you can combine any slices you want, even if it's only all snare drum hits in a loop.

    In Range mode, the lowest and highest note played on pads/keys define the section of the loop that will be played, like selecting an audio region from (step) A to (step) B in a wave editor and looping playback on that.

    Note that the Punch-In Looper will always treat incoming audio as if it was on step positions of the sequencer, no matter if it's in sync with it or not. This can force audio into rhythmic patterns even if it totally wasn't before 😉

    Just the regular Qwerty keyboard (in floating mode). In the example screenshot I’ve searched for Convolver and selected it. Convolver has been added but the keyboard has not been dismissed and remains onscreen regardless of what I tap on next. When I do the same with the keyboard in standard, non floating, mode the keyboard is dismissed when Convolver is selected from the search results.

    Excited to see what the punch in stuff does.

    A simple example for using the Punch-In Looper:
    Have Flexi play a drum loop, put a Punch-In Looper behind it, switch it to Slice mode and hit the pads (or keys) starting from C2 to decide which sections are played in a loop.
    You can press multiple pads/keys to play multiple slices in a loop.

    @jakoB_haQ recently wondered why so few apps can do this, looking at a very old breakbeat mangler app, and here it is!

    Convolver is cool to have!

    Oh yes indeed! :)

    Cool 🙂

    So I am absolutely loving the Punch-in FX. It’s a much faster way to achieve some of the stuff I was P-locking. or automating. Fur Generator is brilliant too.

    What a love with update @giku_beepstreet ❤️ Spokojnych i Radosnych!
    Convuler alone is worth and could be iap, as many times before different IR app loader crashed when memory limit was hitten. Now we can test new tool with hope for more stability of use IRs (i think convuler is for IRs) So I appreciate this great and free for users update.

    It’s for IRs. Watch the gain, it is quite hot as default.

    Also is anyone else getting a bug where a note will trigger out of nowhere when sequencer isn’t playing?

    Are you using the "AN Kick" module by any chance?

    Lets say that i want to midi record from hammerhead or pure acid to the drambo sequencer nut they do not show up as an option under the midi audio midi processor.

    I there a way to route them to the “audio unit midi processor” so that i can midi record, say hammerhead, to the drambo sequence.
    A standard midi connection doesn’t do the trick.

    Record midi thru through an instance of Atom

    Am doing this with native Drambo midi racks because they also don’t have REC buttons

    You can use an AU MIDI FX, Drambo as AU does the trick

    I’ve noticed a new minor interface issue in drambo, when you select steps to shift or transpose, the little menu used to stay visible for as many consecutive adjustments I need to make, but now it disappears after issuing a single command, so I have to keep selecting the steps to make multiple adjustments—especially annoying when trying to rotate a pattern 8+ steps.

    Just started noticing it after updating to latest iPad OS. Anyone else?

    Well, the Analog Kick module is so organic, it has a life on its own.

    Going off the deep end with Punch-In effects here:

  • cokomairenacokomairena

    I'm having bugs with notes being recorded without the record button activated. Mainly when using the rec button of the midi plugins, BUT it also happens randomly sometimes

  • echooperaechoopera

    Demo video:

    As usual Project file in YT description.

  • bleepbleep

    That was a good demonstration. Punch-in FX is yet another powerful Drambo workflow. I'm thinking it'll be good to record the punch-in midi to a clip, then use the pattern duplicate button to capture good combinations while experimenting.

  • bleepbleep

    With multiple punch-in notes held down, is it correct to say that audio is routed in series through the effect layers, starting with the lowest note?

    I'd call it more like 'parallel processing'. At least that is what it sounds to me...

    It would be great to have a procedure to reproduce this reliably.

    I set up some simple experiments yesterday and got the impression that the output from the second effect depended on what the first effect did. Maybe it was not the best set up to verify, so would be nice to get some confirmation.

    The only way I've managed to do this 'every time' is by simply arm REC in the Midi Plug-In pressing play on the transport.

    Leo from SFM does exactly this, he doesn't use REC on the transport bar to record the midi...
    ...just REC on the midi-plug in and Play...

    It behaves like the Automation W in Cubasis. You don't have to enable REC to write automation in Cubasis.

    The Midi Plug-In says REC so it's doing it 'right' but it should honestly be 'ARM' and only record when using record on the transport bar.

    But both methods work for me.
