Thanks @catherder. Looks like fun.
Yep can’t seem to find the IAP either.
I had an option in the hamburger menu in the top left corner. It disappeared after I did the free purchase.
Activate the purchase option that costs 0.00 then you will get the free IAPs.....that's all
Thanks, Menu---Purchase... I was going to buy it when I had time to explore it more ... now it is free... Thanks...
edit... some say it is as good as Koala... let's see..
Now, Luis Rivas has corrupted me for good. I want that “memorizer” feature in every host I use. Darn you, Luis, haha! 🫣
BTW, fantastic app!
I hope it’ll still get updates. Ableton link doesn’t work and crashes when enabled.
You win some, you Luis some 🙏🏻
Saying £4.99 here…
Well, that was 12 days ago. Looks like it's 1/2 price now.
I’ve purchased this IAP after launch a various other apps and IAPs from him. I’d like to see this dev in the game and it makes me sad that he feels like he has to make it free so often. He doesn’t even charge much either
People just want everything free. That’s why we keep losing great iOS audio app devs.
It's a very competitive marketplace and niche apps (such as those on offer for musicians) are not usually the biggest moneymakers. Games tend to sell well. I suppose if one was a musician and developer there would be a lot of pressure to develop a game app to pay the bills and then offer music apps for their own sense of wellbeing.
This is a really fun app! Not as slick as Koala but with audio unit support and the memoriser it more than makes up for it.
Or are there just too many ios music apps for the small number of available customers?
Very good point
Random question: does anyone know how to make an audiounit pad play different notes other than root?
After loading the instrument, you must record some notes to play so press record. Then
go to the "pad" tab and in the tab above pad tab select "piano" and start playing.
As mentioned above, when you load up an AU pad, either record using the piano tab, (also enable midi in on that tab) or input to the sequencer. If you go to the sequencer and click on the top bar to edit the sequence, you will see the pad is marked as au enabled. Click on it and it will open up a piano roll that you can create or edit in.
When an AU instrument is loaded in a pad I think it is intended that you use the onscreen keyboard or midi to play it not the pad.
Great app. I do get hung notes pretty consistently when I load a synth, however... Anyone else experiencomh this? I restarted my iPad after installing.
I figured that must be the case. It would be cool if you could set it to a chord so you can play synth stabs with the pad.
FYI - I saw a post a while back from someone reporting Dawnbeat pads not playing using MIDI in from an external device. In case that's still unanswered, I experienced the same problem recently. It was fixed by reinstalling Dawnbeat. I messed around a bunch with using virtual MIDI and mapping pads and really pushing it to the limit, so I might have tripped on something fairly uncommon. The odd thing was that it would work fine with AUv3 instruments loaded to the pads, and it would even show the incoming MIDI signals in the MIDI Mapping screen.
