  • Cool. This app is super deep. It needs these type of videos. Cheers!

  • Thanks.

    So Deep..

  • Another excellent tutorial Vortex. The only reason I bought Scaler 2 was because of the existence of your half hour overview video.

    As a total non-musician I couldn't have begun to grasp even the basics without your help. Thank you <3

  • Thanks for your videos on Scaler 2 for iPad. One thing about MIDI capture: you don't need it for Cubasis if you click the REC TO TRACK button in the AU bar. You can see this in Leo's most recent video on Scaler at about 1:30:

    Yes I recorded MIDI this way in the first overview video released last week, however, as I explain in this new video, if you have Scaler modifying your incoming MIDI that you're playing from a keyboard or a MIDI clip then what you record will only be from your MIDI controller without Scaler's modifications.

    Give REC TO TRACK another try. I tested it with a keyboard twice, once before posting and once again just now. Both times I bound chords to the keyboard, played the chords with single keys, and turned on a performance attribute (e.g., arpeggio). Both times, the chords and performance attribute were recorded in MIDI, not my single key presses.

    As I demonstrated in the video it's not possible to do this with specific modifications such as certain settings in the key-lock mode including scale white keys, chord notes, chord extensions. While playing the keyboard with these settings on scaler will modify the MIDI in real time but rec-to-track will only give you what you actually play on the keyboard, not the MIDI that got modified in real time.

  • Can't help it but it would be so nice to just drag'n'drop the captured midi on the Cubasis time-line.
    This way I could 'perform' in Scaler and and dump the midi to Cubasis.

    For now I guess I'll have to live with the 'export & import' procedure...

    Agreed drag and drop would be nice, it's probably coming at some point.

    It’s on the desktop version.. it’s very useful..

    Does Cubasis have to do something as well? I cannot drag/drop midi files from the Files app into Cubasis.

    Yes, Cubasis also needs to add support for system Drag'n'Drop as well.

    I do wish Steinberg could shed some light of their Cubasis roadmap as waiting for basic system features to get implemented year after year is starting to get on my nerves...

    Someone should do a vid/thread about which apps do support drag and drop. To my knowledge it’s slim picking but I’d like to know if there’s any im missing.

    I thought I saw one not too long ago. Thanks

    Totally agree here, drag and drop is one of the things cited in our video to developers on the most important things music apps need:

    Think Playbeat 3 is as revolutionary as Scaler 2 in the Drumming world, well, with a few more updates it will be..
