Update from the dev:
“Just to inform you that I found a way to inherit the host tempo and start stop.
I just sent a new Bleep release (version 1.1) to Apple for review.”
Yesssss 🙌🏻
Great news, can't wait.
This is awesome, thanks to the developer for this gift. Takes me back to memories of the garden before the fall and expulsion. Apocryphal apps like BeepBoop, DR-OM, Hexaglyphics, Dropophone. Back when we were all so innocent... when there were no "workflows."
Absolutely haha. A tiny number of people here are doing any of this for sales. Almost everyone is a hobbyist. People should really let their hair down a bit and focus on fun a lot more than workflow. Not to say that having a defined workflow can't have benefits for hobbyists, but still...
Have you told the developer about the AudioBus Forum and how his app has a few fans here?
I sent him a link. Maybe he’ll check in here.
Update available!
Sync to tempo AND a seed knob that allows for predictable patterns when it isn’t in random state
Thanks Jan!
Nice workflow update from the developer so we can use this in our productions! (Wink, wink… 🤣)
Fun becomes even more so! Seriously, this thing has the capacity to result in me sitting fiddling with it for prolonged periods, with a stupid grin on my face.
v1.1
Hi all,
Developer of the app here.
Thanks for all the nice words and the growing fan club
I always had the suspicion that my email address was not receiving all email I should, so I've updated my contact data in case you want to reach out to me: https://www.jamp-audio.com/contact.html
As for the crashes at startup when installing: I've heard this before, but I can't reproduce it on my M1. Essentially I'm just following the example install app that Apple provides via Xcode, but maybe I'm still doing something wrong. If I find a solution I will update the app.
As for syncing with the host app: that should be possible now in v1.1. If this is still somewhat different than the standard way in other apps, let me know with how it should actually work and I will fix it.
The unreadable text in the "Midi learn" section (in AUM) is also fixed in v1.1. The reason why this happened is because jAmp Bleep starts in "light" mode, but apparently AUM can override that to "dark" mode, making the background black, and then you don't see the black text anymore.
Anyway, have fun with the app.
Thanks for the app Jan!
Small note about the "Seed" knob:
), new beat patterns are generated. In theory the whole flow remains predictable, but the "change" of the Mutate knob is detected in batches of 128 or 512 or 1024 samples (depending on your latency settings or your DAW). To have exactly the same song when you've recorded some MIDI input, the mutate changes have to happen at the exact same spot as before. This is very hard to do, and not something that Bleep is able to do right now. So, with the same settings at the start of the play, and with the seed number fixed, you will get the same bleeps, but during the song, the bleeps will start to be different than the previous play because the mutate knob change is recorded at different sample spots.
This knob will make the random number generator predictable. However, once you start to use the Mutate knob (which is inevitable
Thanks for this app, @janm31415 - so much fun! 🙏
I’d sure like to get ahold of Mike Moreno’s original puredata patch for BleepBloop. I’ve looked, but I can only seem to find a video. @janm31415 would you be willing to share the patch logic behind this thing? I want to try to play with the idea. I’ve put something together in miRack based on what I think I hear going on, but I’m very curious about the thing.
Fun as hell app, btw. Thanks for it.
Thanks for making this available for the Mac too!
If you make an empty region in LP4iP, bouncing in place works to convert to audio and fix the pattern in place.
Drag a bar of the audio to an empty region in the tracks view header and make a quick sampler instrument from it to add fills and hits manually to augment your pattern :-)
The original Mike Moreno PD patch is available via Github here: https://github.com/MikeMorenoDSP/pd-mkmr/tree/master/gui
It is the knob-demo.pd file (the name does not suggest that it is the bleep bloop machine, so it is a bit hidden).
Oh! That repo includes the sound patch itself? Cool, thanks.
Thank you for this app @janm31415 it's really really fun!!
@janm31415 well done. This is excellent . Thanks for the update. Hard to believe it’s free. Definitely worth more than that. $$
For sample fodder I have this set up in Drambo. Once the number of steps is set (in Bleep), the switches act as randomisation (Mutate) and fill (Seed).
Can anyone tell me what exact settings I need in the flexi sampler to record a perfect 16 step sample on transport start? Currently flexi sampler continues recording past the 16 steps until you manually stop it, which means trimming back the sample - which I don’t want to have to do. I just want to be able to capture pure 16 (or 32 etc) step samples and save them to Files for later use.
Thanks
Thanks @janm31415 this is a great little app for creating bleepy bloopy goodness!!
@01XMO
First, touch this:
And then, touch that until it says “clip”.
Now, whenever you press record while the transport is running (inside the Flexi module), it will automatically record on the next clip beginning. It will still keep recording until you hit record again, then it automatically stops at the end of your clip.
Thank you @Blipsford_Baubie that’s perfect.
Essentially if I hit REC at any point whilst it’s playing then immediately hit REC again anytime (between steps 1-16) it stops recording perfectly at the end of step 16. I can then just tap the waveform and save the new sample in iCloud. Much appreciated 👍
Exacto @01XMO . You’re welcome. Glad AF to serve the ABF 🤙
Another app succumbs to feature bloat.
The feature bloat continues
Just submitted version 1.2 to Apple review with the following changes:
Mike Moreno informed me that the tone knob might be a little off from the original, so I fixed that. Essentially the tone previously consisted of a first order low pass and high pass, and this has now become a second order low pass and high pass filter.
Light and dark mode. This was a request I got, so now Bleep's appearance will follow automatically the appearance settings of your device or host app. There is no switch. This means that in AUM you will get dark mode. In GarageBand or in standalone mode it will depend on the appearance settings that you have chosen for your operating system.
Sync fix: I saw the jam on YouTube from The Sound Test Room, where there are multiple instances of jAmp Bleep running at different tempi. With my current implementation that's not possible (well, it's still possible but then the play/stop sync is off too), so I slightly modified the behaviour:
the sync knob now only activates or deactivates the tempo knob when running in a DAW. The Start/Stop functionality of the host is always synced.
Jade takes a look at JAmp bleep and Jan's other apps:
v1.2!
