    Yesterday, the new auv3 version was working again in ableton. I couldn’t find how to expand the edit page to full so I could program the hi hats instead of the ride. I could change the kit piece to a hihat as a workaround.

    There should be a little down arrow at the top-middle of the pattern area. If you expand that then you should see the FULL button at the top-right. Maybe that's not showing in when running on the Mac?

    Does anyone know why there are no insert effects (compressor, EQ, delay, or reverb) in the AUv3 version? Or am I missing something?

    Insert Effects are not available in AUv3, only SEND Effects

    Just loaded PopDrummer ,very nice ! i opened Garageband and using PopDrummer AUv3 however only a half screen appears above the piano roll which seems to be locked?

    I also think Garage Band should give more space to AUV3s, giving such a small space only limits external AUV3s.

    @LuisMartinez what do you think of my use case explanation? Or would a other app be something you would be interested in doing ? Their is a big need for that on iOS.

    It definitely makes sense, but just improving and updating the apps will already keep me busy for months.

    Could you try these steps ?

    • Close Ableton, open Pop Drummer as StandAlone and check if it´s correctly authorized, and go to Ableton and Pop Drummer Auv3

    i tried over all octaves in cubasis midi ch 10 both apps. no luck.

    I´m already preparing new update fixing MIDI out with Logic and some issues filtering notes in Sound Module, it could be your case. So if you have problems with the Sound Module or MIDI Out in Logic, please, wait for the incoming update.

  • Not really following the GarageBand issue here.

    All apps in GarageBand open small or truncated until the keyboard is hidden. Then they scale to full size. An example here would be ButterSynth which opens larger once the keyboard is toggled off.


  • edited September 2025

    Similar thing with Tonex where although no keyboard is shown, the same toggle scales the app.


  • edited September 2025

    When using Pop Drummer, there is no toggle option. It is always minimised with no way to toggle to the larger screen by removing the keyboard. The diagonal arrow symbol is missing. This only happens with Pop Drummer that I have found so far.

  • Re my question about PopDrummer not scaled to suit me in GB. With respect ,Scaler an AUv3 device loads full screen in GB ,whats the difference?

    Interesting. Maybe you're onto something there. Maybe plugins can signal something about that to the host?

    Got it, ready for upcoming update. Thanks!

    I exclusively watch this while trippin.

    That mascot Nyango Star cracks me up. It’s a combo of a cat and an apple to drive up interest in an orchard town in Japan. So silly.

    I did that but it didnt make a difference. Fortunately, it failed tonight and then worked after a couple attempts to get it going. So hopefully that sticks! I didn’t do anything different from the usual checks though.

    Also, I found that the toggle hat and snares at the top can show the rides/hihats and snare/cross stick to program. No way to program the toms but some progress….

    Is there any plan to add the universal velocity slider to pop drummer and the auv3? I use it all the time on the other drummers.

    Update - something weird is definitely happening because the app asked me to purchase again but I got it working after a couple of tries. it never restores on the app itself. I need to delete and insert the app again to make it work but it is not consistent as it doesn’t usually work on the first or second attempt.

    Yeah, that’s missing on the auv3 on Mac. I found the toggle button up top solves part of the problem for hats, rides and snares but can’t see a way to program toms. The full edit button does appear on the standalone version on Mac.

    😂
    that was the plan.

  • I have some questions, maybe if @Gavinski is still thinking of doing a video on this and has the ear of the developer, or if @LuisMartinez is following this... (first, it's AWESOME having a Lumbeat app as AUv3, thank you, and thanks for it not being subscription!)

    • the humanise button seems to be missing from the AUv3? I can't get it to show unless in standalone.

    • not sure what the lock does beside the play button. I thought it might lock start and stop to the host, but that happens anyway. I think it would be nice to have the option to start host without PD playing but I can't mkle that happen.

    • there is an eye symbol above the jam slider, what does that do?

    • we have midi control toggle ride/HH options but no toggle snare/cross stick which is slightly sad.

    • Some of the midi option buttons are cryptic to me. 'Send' and 'receive' under the Jam heading, plus 'show controls' and 'send live patch changes'

    The next ones all relate to midi control of live pads, which has a few confusing things going on...

    • I made 3 test livepad sets. in the load livepad window, all 3 have the number 103 on them, plus above it says 'select Eb3', which doesn't change no matter which livepad is highlighted... which seems odd.

    • it seems 'load livepad set' and 'select livepad set' both do the same thing, which is activate whichever set is highlighted. Which is kinda redundant as you have to choose the set by pressing it, which also activates it straight away, unless you use the previous/next livepad buttons. Which you are unlikely to do as you have to press 'livepads' from the lower menu area to see them, then 'load' to see your saved livepads. So after these 2 finger presses, using an up/down midi command then a select midi command is a bit silly. Sorry that was a little complicated to explain.

    • it would be GREAT to be able to trigger the 8 rhythms in a live pad set individually, rather than just have next/previous available. Or am I missing something?

    • I don't think you can delete a rhythm from a livepad set.

    Anyone else noticed any of these quirks or have suggestions?

  • @JustinOllman : the individual livepads can be targeted. Open the standalone with show controls turned on and the note triggers are visible when you first switch to the livepads.

  • Has anyone tried Pop Drummer in Auria Pro?
    When I load an instance into an audio track the drum doesn't sync up correctly and when I launch the app to see or select different patterns Pop Drummer doesn't adjust correctly. It's like all the characters are piled up on top of each other. @LuisMartinez hopefully there's an update sometime for this? Hope it's not too much to code. Thanks in advance.

  • I think I accidentally selected Pop Drummer Old in the drop down list. I opened the Demo project in Auria and loaded Pop Drummer again , not selecting the Old option and it looks great again! Will test sync.

  • Wait, sync is not 100%. The drummer cuts off about every 4 measures! The issue with font not adaptive is back though. If I try to resize the pop up screen with Pop Drummer, it garbles the fonts. I need to reload Pop Drummer again to get a fresh new screen. But the good thing is that the sound is wickedly awesome! I mean, I had it playing with the Auria Pro demo called " Heartbeats" and it sounded soooo good!
    I hope this sync issue gets fixed. I truly hope it's not Auria.

    can they be set to remain instead of just at first launch?

    EDIT: ahhh, doesn't matter really I suppose. One can always do a screenshot :)

    Post screenshots of how you set it up. Make sure you send the right notes in the right channel. Remember that octave numbering has no standard. So make sure you are sending the right note numbers.
