    Latest iOS beta now has multi bus outputs in the Audio Unit....👍

    Excuse my ignorance because I don't Know how multi out really works. Will that be multi out midi, audio or one will be able to choose or set some channels with audio and others with Midi?

    One thing that I would like to see in strokes is the ability to add a stroke without getting all the strokes from the euclidean mode erased. Now when you add a stroke manually it erases all the euclidean strokes, it goes to step mode but you get a blank channel having to add all the strokes manually. If you are playing live it is kind of a hassle

    That’s a neat idea - perhaps by a long press on Step button to copy the current Euc track.

    Or when you add a stroke manually it goes straight top step mode with all the strokes intact plus the one you added. That way it affects the Matrix too because it adds one more step to it and on that step in the matrix you can set a sudden change of pitch or delay. I was thinking about that. STROKES IS AMAZING!!!!

    Undo/Redo button too please

    I prefer it how it is at the moment. Having the two sequencers independent from each other is really nice for fills.

    It refers to the ability to send the various audio channels (the sequence and voice combinations) from Strokes to seperate channels in a DAW like AUM - so you can then apply different effects to the built in voices (generated by the internal synth engine). It's also possible to send the individual sequences from Strokes to other instruments via midi at the same time, which can create some interesting mixes.

  • I prefer it how it is at the moment. Having the two sequencers independent from each other is really nice for fills.

    Yup, I wouldn’t want to change how it is now yet the option to copy across the Euc sequence and quickly add a step would be cool too.

    I agree that could be a handy thing to have. I like the long press idea

    It’s works like most AUM multi outs - each Strokes audio channel can be an individual AUM channel so you can add per channel effects rather than just use the Strokes stereo out. It’s the final piece of the awesome puzzle!

    Definitely sounds like an interesting idea, might be good to suggest it in the discord…

  • I’m currently so satisfied with Strokes and the rapid development and problem solving I can’t bring myself to ask for more!!! 😛

    One of my best purchases in a long time. I am having fun with it. Still trying to master the weights though

    Ha! Yes, weights - if it wasn’t for the waveform window I think I would have lost my mind!

    I just downloaded this. It is amazing, well worth the double sawbuck. Probably my new favorite app. Really outstanding.

    • If it had separate audio outs I'd never open Drambo again. That would take it to a new level.

    • It would be so cool to port the MI Grids software in as another module, and let the other modules send it cv. In terms of the UI, I'd rather have Grids than the scope.

    • The two demo patches are so great. It would be nice to have more presets like this. I'm hoping people will start sharing layouts on Patchstorage.

    So much love! .................... but I need that scope window! I'm piping it all into Topograph (isn't that a MI Grids copy) in miRack AuV.

    This is such a dope app. Have got some great results with the Brainz voices, and tonight sequencing Tera Pro.

    Another sequencer playing off the other the sequencers? I haven't used grids - I guess I should explore it if it's in Mi Rack. What could a Grids emulation in Strokes bring what's not there, what with weights and sequencers 5-8 already playing off the basic sequences? I'm not sure it needs another level of complexity, but I'm interested in your idea.

  • edited April 2023

    It doesnt need any more complexity but if I get grids rhythm runnning nice, gently modded by Strokes cc, Strokes can get on with more melodic duties. From day one on iOS Strokes felt like accessible modular - then it got samples then plaits so now I’m overwhelmed with possibilities - that’s how I’m enjoying it 😛

  • @danimal Many thanks for the idea / tip. Topograph certainly looks like its Grids - will explore.

  • This for me is now way sicker! Having the plaits synth is ace. Oh, and the those (strange} probability or random weights concepts is far out. Hails to strokes.

  • Strokes is a testament to what good can come from being a great, active dev. It seemed to flow under the radar at first and now with 2 huge updates (Sampling and Plaits) it seems to really be taking off. You love to see it. Great app.

    Definitely, and that's when you know that the higher than average price point is worth it too. Also big up to @enkaytee for keeping flying the Strokes flag and letting people know about the big updates. It's definitely nice to see an app that initially doesn't get much traction blooming into something a lot of people are saying is their favourite recent app, while other stuff heavily hyped on release disappears into the void (where it sometimes belongs, sometimes not 😁)

  • Please point me to the simplest, clearest video on how to get started with this app.

  • I don't think there is one haha! Enkaytee said the most recent one by the dev was clear, not sure, also the new manual, not sure either, have been occupied with other things but I see the potential of Strokes so will be properly diving into the new manual when I have time and am in the right mood > @Kashi said:

    Ok! Well, here’s hoping someone makes a “strokes for dummies” vid…

  • I see you all very enthusiastic about this app and I'm curious if it would fit ambient: as far as I see, it seems pretty focussed on rythm and monophonic parts. Anyone using it for chords or more melodic parts? Thanks!

    I think it works well for melodic stuff too. I feed chords from Scaler into it to create arps

    In its original form, it's a midi sequencer. Basically, you set note ranges/scales for each of the 8 sequencer ouputs and these interact with each other. Then there's gate modulation, velocity and assignable CC for each sequencer channel and the 4 weights channels, all freely assignable to any midi channel. (By default all channels are set to output on midi channel one). So the options and depth for sequencing melodies on a poly synth are huge. It requires a bit of time investment (read the well written manual, watch the devs vids) to get the hang of it, but once you get the concept it's intuitive.

    Watch this video. And next Multi out, can you imagine what can be done?

    Thank you all for your feedback! It’s because of multiout that I’m more interested :)

    I’m very used to wire and combine modular sequencers so I see Strokes as a sort of convenient collection of sequencers and interplay between them. I’m trying to figure if the lack of flexibility compared to wiring modules in MiRack is compensated by an all-in-one well-thought interface.

    Modulation of pattern and notes trough LK in the video is a nice workaround. I’m wondering if these, or if sequencers notes can be modulated within Strokes. I’m interested in generative sequencers, i.e. mutating sequences. I love Xynthesizr and Polyphase for instance. So any sequence whose notes or rhythm slowly evolve overtime raise my interest.

    I’m also in doubt because of the modules available in MiRack. There is already a lot to discover in MiRack, it even has a version of Plaids, Braids, Marbles, Clouds and more built into it. Perhaps the static structure of Strokes is more user friendly? What are the user experiences and end results between the two, is there a big, noticeable difference in f.e.“character” or “fun”?

    I think Strokes would be easier for a noob to jump into and have fun right away compared to MiRack. In Strokes you load a demo patch and start tweaking things at random, and you immediately get something new and rewarding and great-sounding. You don't need to know what you're doing or how it works to have great fun with it.
