Hi. There needs to be a decent sampler for iOS.
Sir Sampleton snd SampleWhiz don't cut it. While the only way to feed samples into a non-jailbroken Apple device is through the song library, I would listen to my mp3s on something else, and just use the music app as a folder to keep all my samples if the sampler was good enough. One that could map a sample across a keyboard, of course have Core MIDI and Audiobus support, and doesn't look like a toy. That's not too much to ask for, is it? Maybe the iPad has something but there's nothing I've seen for iPhone/iTouch. It should also run in ios 6.

There are some that can do that but I agree there should be better ones. Take a look at TRG in NanoStudio and Beatmaker or even Thumbjam for instance. Also, if you don't need to run it on a phone, Gadget has Bilbao and Abu Dhabi and there's iMPC Pro as well.
Thanks. I don't have Thumbjam, but I have Beatmaker and NanoStudio and those are both bears. I wish there was something more strait forward . I'll take a closer look at Thumbjam and those too.
ThumbJam will certainly do it, and it does support multi-samples across pitch and velocity. However, the user interface for instrument creation isn't the most streamlined, but will be revamped in future updates.
Caustic also allows you to use your samples in it's PCM Synth.
Asking for an app to run on iOS 6 on an iPhone/Touch...and are you really asking for something that will work with mp3s and not WAV or some other uncompressed audio standard, and not be a toy?
I'm not trying to be a dick, but naw, dude. You need to get an iPad and/or get with the times if you want something better. It's kinda like buying an MPC 60 and bitching that it doesn't have USB compatibility. Wanting an iPhone option is one thing, but iOS 6 and mp3s is another.
Does thumbjam have envelopes per sample? If so, what can the envelopes affect? E.g., Amp, Pitch, Filter? Looking forward to the revamp btw! I only tried to make a sample on TJ once, and was a little daunted at the time.
TJ only has a very basic attack-release setting that applies to all samples, amplitude only. The filter is only touch (or mod wheel) controllable when set up, and unfortunately applies to the instrument as a whole and not per-touch. Just wanted to state those limitations up front. I will probably improve both of those things, but since the focus is more on real-world sampled instruments, the lack of synthy modulation and envelopes can be somewhat forgiven, hopefully!
@sonosaurus I was trying to build some velocity layered drum kits in TJ the other day by importing some of my NI battery kits, naming them correctly to set the trigger notes, and zipping. It didn't seem to work as it should, unfortunately. The samples all ended up at C4, no matter what. Is there some bug or is that function not meant for one shots? Also I couldn't figure out after setting root note manually, how the order of the pads corresponds to the trigger notes. It didn't seem to make any sense to me. That part would be great if it worked more easily. And if TJ could tap into AudioShare samples for building kits and instruments. Or else if I could do these things with drum jam. And midi learn would be very convenient...
I'm looking forward to your updates for both TJ and DJ, they're both among my top favorite iPhone apps!
@munibeast TJ's Audioshare integration is in the main menu.
Oh, thanks. I'll check that out.
iOS could definitely benefit from a more traditional sampler app with more synth like options like being being able to route to flexible routable effects (similar to magellan effects section).
Also sample velocity layers and a format to easily import multisampled/velocity layered patches. Other thing that is missing from sampling on iOS is modulation, i miss being able to route samples through filter and other modulations to actually create sounds rather than simple triggering of sounds.
@sonosaurus said:
I also hope for a release funktion.
Eg. a tom with a long "ringing" would be nice to be able to cut so the sound would end up tight.
Just seen DrumJam is up for some updates in the future.. looking very much forward to that!
I got samplr and samplewiz so I haven't learned a lot about sampling yet. But I also checked out TJ and was planning on creating my sample in either samplr or samplewiz then creating a patch with it in Thumbjam as I really like the fact that the patch select screen in TJ remains open once you select an instrument. I like that for creating a patch useable to play live. I want to use TJ like you would a traditional hardware synth.
I also wish for such an app.
A sequencer (Piano Roll) will make it perfect for quick sketches.
It shouldn't be a full DAW like NS, Caustics, Gadget etc... It should be lightweight.
It will be nice to upload few great sounds, play a sequence and record / copy it into Auria.
