Unfortunately I got carried away with the hype and bought this immediately it appeared. Luckily, it is every bit as good as, and possibly more than people are saying. A really top-notch app.
Congratulations @benkamen I can see this being a new staple for any of us interested in polyrhythmic percussion.
To add my vote, I would also like to see a bigger play button in song mode and sample previewing. But those are only slight niggles on an otherwise brilliant bit of development and UI design.
Thank you so much @benkamen for your work. Really, really appreciated. Workflow complete
Only one thing I am having a little trouble with. Is anyone aware of a way to transfer folders or large batches of samples to the user library? Have tried ifunbox 1.6 and itunes with no joy.
Wow, as well as having a fantastic UI this sounds great, and really fun to use. I can see this becoming one of my top 5 apps. Wonderful. Love the extra useful touches, such as the EQ.
Amazing app. Now my iOS beatsculptor section is down to two apps: Patterning and SeekBeats. Deleted all the other drum machines as I won't need them. My Mini Retina is the 16 GB version so there's no room for "nice to have" items, only "must haves" can survive on the long term.
Seemingly pretty awesome on first look - straightforward to use, sounds great, excellent preset kits, lovely interface. Congratulations on a wonderful app !
What a great app! The only thing I'm a bit confused by is the pencil tool's repeater echo or whatever it's called. What's that all about? The instructions weren't terribly clear.
If you set it to 4 bars interval, Patterning will draw it simultaneously at each 4 bars. Try to draw it from the topmost grid (first note) on the circle to begin with.
MIDI sync is spot on with other apps, like Finger Pro Bassline, & DrumJam
Is this suitable for anything else but electro music? Rock, country and blues? @musikman4christ
MIDI sync slaved to loopy?
@benkamen I have a 'super stupid' question, but how the (enter preferred curse-word here) do I bounce down/export a loop as wav for exporting to AudioShare / FilePicker? The only export I've found (File->Export) exports the project for sharing with other Patterning users...
It's nice to be able to import samples from AudioShare & iCloud but surely there must be an export feature hidden somewhere too??
Are u saying this don't acp out?????
That's great to hear. Along with @Samu's suggestion to rotate circles, I would love the ability to rotate all circles at the same time so I can get the entire sequence to start on the beat I'm hearing in my head.
Patterning is beautiful. This is the IOS sequencer I've been waiting for. I can't wait to dig into it deeper.
@touchconspiracy Yepp, that's what I'm saying and recording the output from IAA-Generator into AudioShare causes a strange 'phased sounding' recording while recording thru AudioBus works fine...
Guess we'll have to wait for 1.0.4 or 1.1 to get things working properly...
I'm on iPad Air 2, iOS8.4.1...
no AcP, nahh I don't believe it lets wait until ben chimes in, it's gotta be in there somewhere
I wanna use patterning with my iPhone 6+ though! pretty please.
Loops and set bars should be bounced via acp, open in or general pasteboard. Really pisses me off why some apps just won't do that anymore, it's far easier, faster and more convenient than recording into another app..setting up that flow and in many cases trimming..
I can understand some synth apps being easier to record into daw like apps, but beat based apps...
If the dev is reading this, please clarify if u will add what's missing cause it's essential for those of us who abide by strict electronica production standards..
I don't want an app to play with or experiment with, I want apps that can feed precise segments into Bilbao and abudhabi...
What bogs my mind is how some pretty 'essential' features are missing(like import & export). What did the beta-testers focus on? Getting early access to the app??
Ditto on iPhone 6. Would be great!
No loop export yet? Oh. Ah well, I'll work around it for now!
I have asked that question more than once (not about this app specifically, I don't have it yet). My one beta testing experience was not enjoyable nor did any of the points I brought up get fixed (and over a year later that's still true). I don't want to hijack but this was an interesting comment.
Need more AB Remote features like pattern direction
I'm on iPad Air 2, iOS 8.4 and can't hear the 'phased sound' when recording into AudioShare, but only going by my old ears and have not tried comparing different waveforms yet.
Agree needs an export, as my trimming skills are not the best lol
So does anyone think there'd be an advantage of using the patterning app to midi drum patterns into Gadget?
What does the sequencer have over the piano roll in Gadget (once you get over the fact it's a circle).
I'm thinking:
the ability to have some tracks (eg the hats) with alternative number of steps e.g. 9 steps. Thus creating polyrhythms (assuming I turn quantise off in Gadget)
maybe the repeater / echo thing creates some kind of midi effect? (Anyone know exactly what it does do?)
nice UI to play with
hopefully will sync as a master to Gadget nicely
does it send any automated midi ccs out?
Any ideas / help appreciated
Maybe using the percentile chance on some tracks in conjunction with your first idea, may help give a more human feel?
@kobamoto said: I wanna use patterning with my iPhone 6+ though! pretty please.
I second that! Too much apps made exclusive for iPads, while screens of iPhone get bigger. This app would be great on iPhone 6 Plus.
Thanks. Yep, percentage chance is cool.
Would be nice if you could generate some slightly random fills on the fly somehow. Not sure how you could do that.
The ability to rotate patterns or reverse them on the fly is nice. Can't do that in Gadget.
The reason why I find Rock Drum Machine more useful for me personally (in playing live non-electronic music) is cause of the awesome random fills. If only RDM supported midi, higher quality samples, percentage chance (humanizing) and foot pedal support. In other words, I'm looking for a cheaper iOS version of the Beatbuddy
Try the auto rotate with the Pend1.....interesting!
Sample preview and ACP please.....
Import samples, and audiocopy please
