GainX2 for iOS and macOS - Dual Gain Utility - RELEASED

Rob_Jackson_Music

Hi Folks,

The 2nd release in the kinda boring but kinda useful (maybe) category...

GainX2 is a gain utility primarily designed for use during live performances within an AU host controlled via MIDI CC (*).

You can use GainX2 as a "helping hand" to mute or unmute channels, smoothly fade between them, or add additional switchable gain before a guitar amp sim. You could even use GainX2 to automate a 30 second fade out at the end of a performance!

GainX2 also includes a master volume with variable taper and optional damping. This feature is useful when controlling volume via a MIDI controller in your host, and avoids the "stepping" effect that you sometimes get when mapping MIDI CCs to a volume parameter.

NOTE: If all this talk of MIDI CCs isn't making sense, or you primarily make music in a more traditional DAW such as GarageBand or Logic, then you probably won't find GainX2 very useful. Alternatively, if you like to perform live with an iPad and use something like AUM or Loopy Pro, then you might be glad of a "helping hand" to control gain dynamically and smoothly via MIDI.

(*) Please note that GainX2 does not have a "MIDI learn" function of its own, so your host needs to support the mapping of plugin parameters to incoming MIDI CC messages.

Here's a little demo in AUM:

So I have to buy this, even though I don’t need it, just to maintain the collection?

Obviously.
