    Template for polyrhythm ready. Quite handy just to remove some beats.

    I think we haven't talked about the "mute" note function, very useful in this case!

    Sound cool but is there any sequencer have this note muting feature?

    Anyway I have all these helper clips saved my init template so I can copy and paste when I need them

  • My mate is a guitarist and will be sending me stems. What’s is the best audio option for GR2?

    I think the point was, in GR-2 you can mute the notes you don't want rather than removing them, which saves having to add the back in if you want them back.

    the sampler instrument 👍

  • Having a hard time wrapping my head around recording samples. I’ll set up my instrument as a sound source before the sample, see the waveform coming through, create/edit a sample, hit record and it just blinks sporadically with no effect. I assume I’m doing something wrong.

    the recorder has an input, it can record form any track/part or the master, it has nothing to do with the position of the sampler in a track/part

  • Top feature if you have a LP Pro !!!!!

    Thanks. Will give it a go.

    On a different note. My iPad Pro 12.9 inch gen 2 arrived and works amazingly well with GR2. It’s fantastic having a huge screen to interface with GR2 and of course having a built in headphone port is fantastic which is the reason I got it.

    Battery life isn’t as good as my m1 iPad Pro and it is heavier but it’s awesome. I forgot just how much I missed having a dedicated headphone jack.

    Funny thing, bought latest iPad MINI and i like GR2 on this smaller screen MUCH more than on bigger Air M1 :lol:

    In the note editor tools there are Select, Draw, Paint, Erase, and Mute tools. The mute tool (icon that looks like a speaker cone) mutes individual notes a selection of notes while keeping them in place in the grid.

    Using that, you can turn notes off and on without having to place them again, and adjust velocity and other parameters. It's a great live tool as well as a shortcut for when composing. You can make multiple copies of a clip, then carve out different notes in them for variations.

    yes there is a tool for that on the top bar you have a little speaker that switches notes and clips on and off

  • I made a video showing a setup routing Lumbeat drummers from AUM into GR2 with KQ-Voice plugin. Don’t know how useful this will actually be but it’s working.

    Thanks @cokomairena and @wim for the help. I’ve got a couple recordings of setting up the drum chain in AUM. Might post later.

    I didn’t know this KQ Voice plugin app. Very interesting. Is it possible to send MIDI from GR2 to AUM to play a synth hosted in AUM and receive the song output back in GR2?

    Sadly, no. There's no way to route the midi out because in order to use the Loopback plugin you have to put the Loopback In plugin in an FX slot that receives midi. Since there's no way to use AUv3 plugins in the track inserts, it can't work.

    I haven't tried it, but I doubt that putting Loopback on the master would work. Probably only audio gets routed there.

  • Are we able to save Pure Acid drum racks and bass settings to use between patterns?

    yep. Long-press the Part button and then Save Part Preset or Save Drum Rack.
    Access the presets from the Browse button.

  • Fifty five pages, in an incredibly short time.
    Clearly, this has become a fundamental piece of kit.
    Can we please get a subcategory? Or shall we just let this run a few hundred pages first?

  • I don’t see that a sub category would be more useful. If people feel it’s better to start a separate threads for more specific discussions about GR-2, they can always do so.

    This always reminds my my years old idea about completely different UX approach to forum .. i think these classic forums like this one are totally ineffective, becasue in such major topic people tend to open tons of small side-by discussions .. i have in my head idea of branching thread, like tree, where you can choose to follow main branch or you can in some straightforward way jump into any "paralallel" sub thread, while you can still see visually the original thread (place on original thread) where this sub thread branch started, so you don't get lost and you can easily jump back to main topic. .

    probably i am the only one who would like such thing .. like parallel universe where you can jump between universes and be part of alternate timelines :-)

    Anyway - never saw any public forum solving this problem in good way .. even things like reddit or X can become total mess very quickly .. well, maybe there is no demand for such thing ..

  • It would be much better if we can search within a thread

    Well, I'm looking at the Cubasis and Logic subs, and thinking the adoption and interest in this one app is pretty clearly rivaling those.

    Actually I think this is a bloody brilliant idea.

    @jklovemusic said:

    Yes yes yes yes. Unfortunately that would require a core search, rather than a google-based search, which would mean an entirely different platform.

    KVR has (or had) the best format, ‘categorized by developer (or product) sections’… This is a forum that was built around Loopy Pro, that exploded…
    Any developer with a ‘competing app’ might shy away from participating…

    nope, that’s basically just another forum with sophisticated tags and categories system, but unlike the thing I have in my mind…

    there is no forum, social network or chat system, which would properly handle navigation within multiple branches of smaller threads naturally growing from one main root base thread..

    maybe I should try to create some prototype and see if people would like it
