    I’d like reverse midi control automation. You connect the controller to the instrument, get it to learn the midi numbers then you turn the knob on the instrument and the automation sequencer performs it. Too much to hope for I know…… but why?

    I don't understand what you're saying. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    😀 Yes I see your point.
    I was meaning that you would be able to tweak the knobs on a synth and they would automate because they are connected via midi learn to a sequencer. Instead of turning the knobs etc on the sequencer to automate the synth.
    So you would have the midi notes coming through via the sequencer- but all the tweaking is done on the actual synth - and the sequencer remembers it and plays the automation because of this idea - giving your apps more of a Groove-box/ hands on feel.

    Ahh. What you're describing is dependent on each individual app.

    • If an app reports its AUv3 parameter movements to the host, then the host can record them or make other use of them. Other apps cannot because there's no way for them to get the parameter movements except from the host. Many but not all hosts are able to record and play back such automation.
    • If an app outputs midi CC's from it's controls, the host can and usually does provide routing to other apps. But most apps, if they do output CC's don't output them for all or even most of their controls.

    If a host made in-app AUv3 parameter movement able to be routed to other apps, this would be huge. You could then effectively use any AUv3 app as a controller for any other AUv3 app at many times higher resolution than midi allows. That would open the way for high-resolution AUv3 parameter recording, editing, and playback.

    So, I think there really two app ideas here:

    1. A host that provides routing of AUv3 parameter data between apps.
    2. A recorder / editor / playback AUv3 app that could use that data. This can only work via idea #1.

    That sound like you have hit the spot. I wonder it will ever happen. On the face of it it seems like it would be achievable by people who know what they are doing (the other end of the scale from me) can you imagine? Now for me that really would be a good and proper game changer deserving of that slightly overused tItle.

  • This one is for the lazy musicians.

    We have all these apps like Scaler, Suggester, etc. What would be nice is that you teach the app your musical main idea, a chord sequence with a certain particular rhythm or cadence.

    And you get in return examples for other parts of the song structure. So if you teach it the chorus, it gives you verse, intro, break, outro. If you teach it the verse, you get the chorus and other parts.

    And with knobs or sliders you can alter these suggestions, more or less tension, more or less diatonic, more or less adventurous, settings for voice leading, inverted chords, ec. It is cheating off course, but it would take the apps we already have to the next level. The output could be midi files that can be imported in a DAW, so the whole song structure is instantly made.

    An other nice tool would be an app that teaches you to bend in tune on guitar, a tone generator and guitar tuner together. This is easily made in AUM with a sequencer app, synth app and a tuner app, but nonetheless it could be handy.

    I see no reason why a machine learning system couldn't do this, but of course you're going to get something less adventurous than what you might come up with yourself because the algorithm has no intent behind it, like the human musician. It relies solely on patterns and math.

    Nice Idea this thread.

    I'd like a midi AUv3, that lets me inject mpe-data into already recorded or generated chords.

    Maybe a couple of xy-pads (5 or 6), that can produce timbre/cc74 on one axis and polyphonic Aftertouch on the other.

    Ideally one pad would light up for any note present.

    I like the xy-pads, that anzbert used in beat pads.

    I tried to accomplish most of this using gsdsp 's MMM using Drambo's xy-pads, but couldn't figure it out.

    On top of that it wouldn't harm, if you could use some jittery LFOs, envelopes or random sources besides the manual modulation, or maybe even some kinetic controls like in brambos Fluss.

    This would be so cool to have :)

    That is a great idea. I can't tell you how many times I've recorded a GeoShred performance in iPadOS which won't translate when I bring it to GarageBand or Logic Pro on desktop. All of the subtlety of the performance is mysteriously lost in translation.

    Join our beta program for GeoShred Mac. We will start Beta in 3-5 months.

    Oh, man. I have a longstanding rule against participating in betas because of prior problems (nothing to do with GeoShred, by the way), but I may have to reconsider in this one case... I'll think about it. Maybe in 3-5 months I'll have warmed up to it. Thanks.

  • An app that puts all the Reverb.com Want that sound samples into one place so people can stop asking for an acoustic drum app.

    Oh, all of the Reverb.com samples served up with a plug-in? Maybe someone would be willing to co-develop this with Reverb?

    Just a thought, but finding problems is the whole point of a beta. In particular you are interested in the path between iOS and desktop DAW projects. The whole GeoShred community would benefit from your participation, but I understand if you have a rule against betas.
