It is a lot simpler once the plug-in has been properly registered (LogicPro for iPad doesn't run the auval tool when it detects newly installed plug-isn which it SHOULD do just like the Mac version), after that it's just a matter of selecting the multi-out version. I won't be buying OneShot just to troubleshoot multi-out though.
@tahiche Try to get in touch with the developers regarding this issue...
Am I right in thinking that this is probably the first app released so far this year that has really generated a level of buzz and discussion like this on the forum in such a short space of time? Reaction to most releases this year has seemed a bit muted compared to previous years.
Maybe but I won't be buying it anyway LOL
You're well and truly cured of your appoholism. An inspiration!
from the beginning till now - maybe, but I also saw that hype as quickly comes, also quickly dies
It just surpassed the Nerd Synth thread
OneShot seems to fill a hole for many. I'm thinking about getting it. I remember the rave about NI Battery, when it came out. This looks like it does it best. I learned about a few more apps that do similar things in this thread actually. But this one looks best in comparison to me
Ah that's a good point about Nerd, yes that was another one that got people excited. Maybe EG Nodes too
True, true. Perhaps Drambo is the king of apps that managed to maintain long term buzz.
Well, considering what I've read, seen and heard so far I would have just gotten eye-sore, head-aches and high-bp...
I did end up getting TB Equalizer Pro as it adds some much needed tools to the toolbox and I can actually see what is going on which I can't say about FF Pro-Q3...(I'm waiting for a reply from FF regarding MFS (Microscopic Font Syndrome) and if then plan to doo anything about it, if not then its no more stuff from FF for me).
And this app will work great together with Drambo (as has been said before, by others here)
I'm really not interested in apps that try to reinvent everything again and again (cough… Patterning)
This one fits great into the system I put together and am already comfortable with and it makes stuff easier and adds new features to the workflow
I guess, I should get it now
didn't wanted to shit on patterning. it actually uses the iPad touchscreen well. but its not for me. what I like about the iPad is, having a sophisticated music workstation in the size of a comic book sketchbook, that I can take with me everywhere
.
Drambo is really good for triggering OneShot, but I 'm sure, so is Patterning, I'm gonna give it a try.
Absolutely loving this, straight out of the box awesome. Quick jam:
Would you all say it’s worth 20$ for the samples alone?
I don’t really enjoy sequencing drums on the iPad, and normally i just sample into hardware to get drums… even tho i often will use an iOS MIDI sequencer into the hardware 😂 i can’t explain it that’s just how i get things done…
The sounds are kinda original and different than every other drum sound? Or can i really get these sounds from all the other sources
maybe get a midi controller for your iPad?
For $20 can’t go wrong. I had to pay £20! No complaints for my amateurish purposes.
(Note: that is not to be read as £20x£19x£18x…£1. I would have balked at that).
Definitely consider a midi controller! That m-wave pad controller would be perfect I reckon. I think the sounds in this are excellent, well worth $20. Whether it would be worth the hassle of sampling would be up to you to decide. Seems like a crazy way to do things tbh. Much better to just use a midi controller of some kind
Think he mainly uses hardware samplers. 404, Op-1. So sound sources will mainly be on these devices for a main song build.
Iv got a launchpad to a low cpu ipad but still want sample versions on another ipads drum build.
At the mo without a multiout per track ( seems theres only 9 )
You would lose features by sampling but gain some by sampling ( track fx and host pans etc )
I guess you could just not multiout and use apps fx, pans etc.
As soon as you just start the app in standalone mode, put on some good headphones, just fingerdrumming on the screenkeyboard, then, yeah, then you probably will end up with a smile that will stay all weekend!
There is something with the quality and feel of “realism” that is hard to explain!
Have it been a desktop app for 200 bucks, then there is more of a serious decision…
Overall - Klevgrand make such a good collections of apps to iOS - hard to beat - perhaps Paul the Musicman at 4Pocket Audio is near?
When you usualy buy apps like this.
Say it were N.I libraries etc.
Do the libraries only contain hidden versions of sample folders?
and not a library of sample folders on your computer ?
Thought there may have been a folder of samples to drop to another sampler.
Thanks all! I have several midi controllers and they are for sure helpful.
I just find using the iPad as a sound source is my best move…. and then sampling into my op1f, or 404, etc etc…
This gets me further into the song creating process as it forces me to push on and commit…. I can spend way too long creating a drum pattern/sequence on iPad in AUM or whatever then just call it quits…. Because i feel stuck.. a sampler makes me make progress…
I think for 20$ you are right, if i get 20 good drums its probably worth it! I want those jazz drums!
I wish the sample library was exposed for access!
I find theres loads of work to make it sound how you need ( obviously ) Even without designing kits other setting ( robins or whatever )
Cant stand stereo drums.
Sounds like you at the cinema listening to a drummer.
Is this the case for drums generally.
Is mono better for drums than stereo ?
Or just listener choice ?
Cant see how stereo drums by a dev for a users, own music production needs. Would ever be the correct stereo field.
But that isnt even just pans.
Theres an option for mono or stereo sample.
So not sure what im on about.
I guess for finger drumming, some kits should work as presets but not quite for song making. Unless you let the drums dictate the stereo image.
Just to be sure, the thread got quite chaotic... Is it possible to drag and drop multiple samples from the Files app ( or Sample Crate ) into the app?
No, but you can load multiple samples simultaneously in the standalone or auv3 itself now, in the updated version
Thanks!
So you can only use the app's built-in browser?
The Elektronic drum machine
and its only triggering a few sounds of each track.
Each track is 16 sounds.
With a Faderfox pc12 for each euclidean module and then either the screen or launchpad to switch each tracks kit.
Ok its only 12 tracks.
The additional kind of annoying tracks are just a multi out for auto fills.
Easy to sound shape, different sequencing, to track fx or sends or whatever.
Why is it about oneshot or similar apps?
Ideally there would be acoustic modules ( if host can provide other stuff. Robins, chokes )
So thats probably the main reason why I wouldnt re-sample to Drambo. Even if an m4 ipad could run all my drums at 256 buffer ( at most )
As you can see ( compared to drum track builds of AU to tracks )
Id need 19 track inputs and then 19 outputs.
This could obviously be halved in any host ( I know of )
By using octatron to sequence and then just deal with 19 outputs.
Thats the question and not really the correct idea because of cost and maybe less functionality.
If my ipad drum machine is ok at 1024 buffer at the mo with the elektronic build.
If I added oneshot or any samples to 19 drambo samplers.
Would an m4 at low buffer be ok?
And what do you lose from oneshot ( round robins and chokes etc ) If using Drambo as a host, triggering its zone sample players.
Its a worthy discussion.
No need to get bent etc.
Apps like oneshot would need 19 inputs and 19 outputs.
Or just 19 if sequenced via say Octatron.
Im just asking if.
What do you lose if making kits in Drambo samplers at the mo.
Is it robins and chokes?
If it might be worth using these modules.
If my ipad probably needs to be at 1024 buffer ( ipad 9 )
To get it to be 256 buffer for fingerdrums and the modules be in the same template as the elektronic drums and so theres also 19 less tracks, as it wont need outputs.
Do you think an M4 ipad has the specs?
Maybe just buy octratron and use in Drambo for oneshot, so theres 19 tracks less
Or are there any other drum sequencers, with up to 16 bars and patterns etc?
Would like to see a video where someone finally shows how multi sample import works with this app.
(Playing presets, not showing how to import multi samples. I just happened to post this right after that request)
Instead of focusing on the individual outputs I'd say build the kits in OneShot?
You've got plenty of built-in effects (2 inserts per sound, 2 sends and 2 master effects) and it's always a good idea to groups similar sounds to one output/group and even do the basic mixing for the kit in the app.
Focusing too much on technicalities will just kill the overall creative flow, at least that's my experience.
But then again, everyone is free to do things just the way they prefer but keeping things as simple as possible will most likely be a win in the end.
Good Luck!
