  • How about inter-app audio? Can you open in?

    How's the included sound content? Is there a lot of licks and phrases, or rather proper sampled instruments that you can make your own melodies/basslines with?

    Nice enough samples, not so many, but OF COURSE a bajillion IAPs and not so cheap....they can be spread out on a simple keyboard which is nice...AND the immediate ADSR etc for samples played is a very nice feature.

    And UNDO. Gadget I'm looking at you.

  • ok I would have been brought to tears if I had seen virtual midi in that pref shot, please somebody tell me I can sequence iOS synths with this and not just instruments external to the iPad?

  • Oh. So bit of a gateway to purchase IAPs. Hmpf...well unless sample import and folder structuring is as good as say iMPC Pro, I'll prolly just stick w/ that.

    I saw "core MIDI" somewhere in there, doesn't that mean virtual MIDI will work?

  • Nice to meet you @Beathoven, thanks for the welcoming gift, much better than fruitcake!

    Haha that official trailer is ridiculous!

    Opened in Auria....no transport bar however.

  • see allot of videos on their yt but why oh why would an app like this not focus on sample editing, can't find any sample editing videos did i miss them, anybody got a link?
    no sample editing videos makes me nervous.

    not necessarily, but I very much hope so

    Take a look on the iTunes description page - there's a screen shot where it looks like you can edit samples somehow

    It's non-intuitive way of bringing in your own samples (read: I couldn't figure it out), but it can be done of course and once you have them in (or record in) I think the editing is very nice/easy. Immediate gain/pan/pitch/HP/LP/Reverb/Delay plus volume over 16 pads plus pitch on the keyboard....

  • just checked it, even there it was the least mentioned, as if it's not the most important part of a sampling beatmachine , well i'm going to grab it at 5 bucks and see what's what
    it's hard to resist sampling beatmachines for under 5 bucks

    thanks JG, I'm gonna try it out.

    No. I don't think the import is good as regards renaming etc which I always dislike, but the manipulation is very good/quick. I don't think the IAPs is such an issue if you want to bring in your own stuff BUT for now the filing system isn't so obvious. There are group and category areas but I haven't figured out how to save to them yet. Here's a screen shot, the repeatred pastes on the right are where I ended up pasting lots of files (the same file :) until I could figure out where they were going. You can see the empty cat and group banks and then on the far left are the installed banks. Only two Edm and Urban, then the User bank and everything beneath are IAPS...image

  • This looks very promising from a very solid developer who has been around and will only make it better and better. Looks very solid for a first release. The statement on the main page tells me that they have listened to what users want: "PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
    BeatHawk offers full support for CoreMIDI, Inter-App Audio, AudioBus, Audio Copy and WIST allowing you to create with your favorite tools in whatever way you like. Play your tracks with an external MIDI keyboard or sequence them over Wi-Fi from your computer. If you want to wrap up a track in your favorite DAW just export the stems or MIDI files, it couldn't be simpler."

    As regards the included banks: Not bad. Very Dance, but enough samples to have a good go with because of the ability to easily change pitch, volume etc etc.

    Lots of cool banks but not cheap (5, 6, 7 or 10 bucks a pop).

    My gut says it's not an IMPC, but it might be a lot more fun/quicker to play/make shit with.

  • Speaking of listening to users, I wonder what Retronyms' response will be............never mind I just got it. Just received an email: "Loopmasters adds new packs to the Content Store". Great, more $9.99 loop packs for Audiocopy.

  • I'd still like to suss out the various(?) ways of getting audio into BeatHawk. There's ACP, iTunes File Sharing, and ???

    Let me know if is worth it please

  • I resisted on iMPC Pro ,and I was waiting for BM3. Anyone care for a small review comparing it with iMPC pro and the "old" BM2?

  • @telecharge said:

    "Sample from iPad built-in mic, line-in or external devices"

    hopefully goes in audiobus output as well, but not seeing that anywhere...

    Lol, delete that stupid app....even the paid apps have adware...

    JG said it's a no go.

    Midiot here I'm afraid. But surely one can record into the sampler somehow.

    What I'm already vastly upset about is not being able (apparently) to delete samples, let alone rename them. It's going to get very pickle-ish very quickly. Oh how I wish our friend from AS could wave his magic wand over this lot....the foregoing typed in such an emotional manner to cause the reverse jinx Gods to show me that proper management is in fact available. Still doubt it, but would love to eat the humble pie.

    Doesn't show up in AB output here (input only).

  • ^too bad, I must have drifted off into a stupor and imagined it in my mind. It was nice while it lasted.

  • nice song mode
    nice keyboard and pad mode
    adsr for samples

    terrible sample editing, very limited basic trim
    no truncate or anything else for that matter

    no sample truncate that I can see, it seems to be non-destructive which is cool if you don't want to get rid of excess audio which I do so not so cool for me.

    it's quick to move around, also there is not allot going on here, feels like a souped up imaschine in some ways and has less sample editing. the copy and pasting of tracks/patterns is cool it's easy to move stuff around, easy to mute stuff, easy song mode
    I feel like sample editing is an after thought…
    it's very cool that it's got time stretching. No iTunes library sampling

  • Thanks @JohnnyGoodyear .

    Anyone had a look with iFunbox yet? Can you slap samples and folder it that way? I've been spoilt by iMPC Pro's awesome folder/sample structuring and search engine. Perhaps this is more in line with iMaschine or something tho..

  • edited January 2015

    Unfortunately have to go out into the world and fulfill duties, BUT I am looking forward to putting aside an hour or two later to see where I am led to by this thing. That in itself is a plus sign (the old cheaper than a posh coffee line)....we'll see. Look forward to smarter folks than me getting under the hood...

  • edited January 2015

    uhh impc pro and bm2 outperform this app.

    i think it's better than imaschine though, edit your samples somewhere else, stick 'em in and do your thing.. very easy song mode to put beats together and you should be able to get something interesting out of the realtime stretch with your samples but even still it's no match for the above two mentioned.
