  • There are 5 very good short tutorials on their YT channel. Posted about a month ago.

  • This thing is damn fun and really well thought out. Love the Fx graphics (OP-1 - like!). It's lagging slightly on my iPad 4, but I'm on 8.1 so who knows. A big thumbs up from me!

  • Papertiger-are you the same person from Elektron-Users? If so, nice to see you around! Also, not sure if you are still using Elektron gear, but I'd be curious to know if you think Egoist holds any value for someone already using the MD, MNM, and OT...looks like it could be good Octatrack sample food, but maybe a bit redundant.

  • Any plans to add dropbox import? I'm really digging the simplicity of the PC version, can you share presets between both versions?

    If it have the same functions than the pc version, my english is not good :)

    its identical to the pc version as far as I can see :)

    Thanx for the info

    Is the tempo universal? Or is it stored with each pattern?

    Haven't checked the tempo but the timing division is saved with each pattern so I'm guessing tempo does too. Will check soon just uploading a jam to soundcloud

    I watched a few videos about the desktop version on youtube, turns out you can load different samples for each pattern. Did that carry over to this version?

    Tempo change and sample change per pattern would be pretty awesome, and give a lot of flexibility to song mode.

    Throwing these questions out there for anyone, not just Buska. :)

  • From the ipad manual: All parameters, the sample content and the slicer setup are pattern-specific.

    iOS 7 or later"

    Ok, let's download this bad boy...

  • Yes you can share presets! Wow, how cool is that?

  • First little jam...

    What musikmachine said. Everything is pattern-specific, except the "Egoist" tab, which includes the global tempo. The "tempo" button next to the swing button is however pattern specific, so you can change the tempo between 1/4 1/4T 1/8 1/8T 1/16 1/16T 1/32 on a per patten basis. Alternatively let the tempo be controlled externally via an iDAW or whatever.

    Really really cool. And featured by Sugar Bytes on their Facebook!

    Yes kobamoto, you can import samples into the slicer via ACP for now. Or directly from the iTunes lib. You can't import anything to the drum machine, but it's pretty well stocked with ~1000 samples. 30 or so kits, each kit has various sub- kicks, snares and hats as well (slide your finger up/down on the corresponding button to change sounds).

    ok thanks

    Sounds good :)

    I've not got that far yet.

    Anyone found a way to auto slice by a set number of even divisions as opposed to just transient detection?

    The loop I've imported has transients all over the place and I wanted to start by cutting the loop into even 16ths.

    Nice work man

  • Very nice track.

    I'm tempted.

  • Anyone using it on an oldish device?

    Cool track and all in Egoist i have to buy this app, looks like a lot of fun and experimentation

    :) that's cool to be posted on sb facebook page.. Cheers for pointing me to that

  • This app is excellent. Very playable. Sounds great. Instant fun :)

  • I'm looking forward to tomorrow, when i can get it.

    Monzo- I'm on an iPad 2-ios7, i think we'll be ok.

  • This is amazing......just lost a whole evening playing with it. Beautifully designed interface - had it figured out in no time. Grooves like a mofo. Like the unholy love child of Sector, Thesys and Reaktor Go Box

    Now if only they could make the sequencer loop brace and the forward backwards and random buttons midi mappable......

  • Yeah nice track Buska! I only needed about an hour with the PC version to know it's a no brainer but i would recommend giving it a try if you can just to get a feel for it.

    I played with the desktop demo for an hour.

    There's an awful lot to love here. In particular, the pattern manipulation stuff is just great—the sort of stuff I wish every patterny thing had like shift/left right, variable pattern start and end points (amazing!) and copy/paste. Shifting up and down on the slicer is basically an instant idea machine. And wholly randomizers.

    At first I was all 'another 303?' and then I was all 'this is a pretty rad little bass synth!'

    Think I'm going to hold off on buying it. It's a crazy amount of app for twenty bucks but I have enough barely used apps at the moment and want to focus. That said, some of this stuff would sway me:

    • Separate tempo and swing for each of the three parts. I found for most things a slower tempo gave the most flexibility with the slicer but then the drums had to have half the resolution to get anything with some speed.
    • Import your own drums. There's a lot included but I'm not that excited about them and you can't cross pollinate a snare from one set with a kick from a different.
    • Add slices without messing up the order of your slices (or the sequencer updated itself accordingly automagically)
    • Use an external midi keyboard or a the included keyboard to program the pitch offset steps, particularly the bass.
    • At least when stopped: when changing the pitch offset of any step have auditory feedback and/or some way to trigger the step manually (works for slicer via the keyboard but not for bass synth)
    • Non step based effects and 3 separate busses (eg "I'd just like some reverb on the drums please"). 3 separate busses alone would basically solve it.
    • Generally better sounding effects. I can't say I played with them too much but I was kinda underwhelmed by them.
    • More patterns and parts. Not that I filled 6 parts in my little test session but I'm quite sure I would if I was trying to make a whole song. Either that or let parts and patterns be represented in the song mode so that you can use parts to represent groups of patterns but still add bits by hand. The app helps you generate so many ideas it was easy to fill 16 patterns! Though maybe SB is saving me from my non-committal self.
    • More patterns could also be done by having A/B/C/D subpatterns within a pattern, if that makes sense. I found myself making little variations or loving what random did and wanting to quickly save it. I'd copy the entire pattern just to do that. 16, gone! Would be really fun and musically useful if the ABCD variations had their own forward/backward/random control too.
    • MIDI out for drums and bass
    • Track independent song mode. Instead of chaining parts, chain patterns and being able to select different patterns for slicer/bass/drums. I had a lot of the same drum track copied — changing it one place (and wanting that same change in other patterns) meant a lot of copy and paste.

    My 'good' list is longer than the sway list but most of that amazing stuff has already been covered in this thread.

    Syrup-san: Focus, like politeness, is always in order (and in short supply :), but I think you have a date and soon with this patterny thing...for what it's worth (nothing) I would encourage the Sugar Byters to send you a code just for the ideas you've added or confirmed in their suggestion box...

    Is it just me or is this thing controlling Turnado also, put flower beat preset on and watch turnado's soft ice move the drollingduck in sync.

    As noted lots of nice things in this app, but I have to give an extra early shout to the effects. Sure, and importantly, they sound like quality when deployed well, but the visual display of quantitative information (cf. Edward Tofte) is brilliant. And the animation as you adjust makes all kinds of intuitive sense.

  • Goddammit, I have zero willpower for iOS apps. Drugs are way less seductive. ;).

  • Agreed. The fx illustrations/animations/interactions are superb.
