The Input here is the note trigger. With LPG Decay you set the length of the effect, with the 3 knobs in the middle you set the positive or negative amount on Timebre, FM, Morph and with Velo LPG Mod (in the settings menu) you set the amount the velocity will have on the modulation
Love the look of the UI, love the sounds I've heard on the video. Will buy today. Too many synths but I can't help myself...
Ahh thanks! It's clear now. Any plans to extend modulation capabilities (LFO, Envelopes...) ? But I totally understand if that's a bit too much and takes away from the simplicity and immediacy...
Looks great! One thing, I have become surprisingly fond of auv3s that support MIDI program change messages, my current setup lends itself to this. Does elastic drums support program change? And long strectch… 14 bit midi messages?
I would like to have independent LFO's for the most important parameters also. Or that a knob can get an independent LFO, etc. But I don't had a clever idea yet, how to do this without ruining the clean interface and the easy access (with adding a lot of overviews or a complicated settings window).
@elasticdrums I've not bought the app yet but I have a few questions...
As I'm a Chip-Tune addict I'm wondering how the clock-signal is fed to it? (it's oscillator 24 in Elastic OSC).
"8 Four variable square voices for chords or arpeggios (HARMO: chord, TIMBRE: arpeggio type or chord inversion, MORPH: PW/Sync, OUT: square wave voices, AUX: NES triangle voice, TIMBRE attenuverter: envelope shape). Plug a trigger input to clock the arpeggiator."
...also I'm curious if the AUv3 automation works in LogicPro for iPad as some developers 'forget' to add support for touch & release events which are more or less required by LogicPro for iPad when it comes to automation from the plug-in UI.
Does Elastic OSC have provide a virtual midi-out port?
(ie. this would make it possible to use the keyboard in the plug-in to send notes to the host).
Sorry for bombarding questions, I missed to apply for beta for this...
Cheers!

Got it. It's great as-is, to be sure. Having a lot of fun with it.
@elasticdrums I notice an odd behaviour of the touch keyboard in the standalone version: In order to play a note on a white key I have to touch the keyboard fairly high up and close to the black keys. In my opinion far too close. Otherwise no note gets triggered. However, when I play a note, it suddenly seems to recognise the whole key length and I can slide all the way down to the keyboard bottom and the note is still held. To add to this oddity: As long as one note is held, tapping anywhere on a key will play a note. So the problem I am describing only happens when a single note is going to be played.
This could be because of this property called preferredScreenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures in UIViewController, that’s set to bring up Control Center with a single swipe up. This gives a noticeable latency when playing a note too close to the bottom of the screen.
this synth is so much fun - thanks @elasticdrums !
adding another hopeful voice for some kind of separate LFO - and a simple envelope control over the filter would make it much more useful
but as is it's already a gem
Thanks for making this excellent app @elasticdrums!
I use an 11 inch iPad Air m2 & on logic for iPad & groove rider 2, elastic Osc’s full interface is not shown when using either daw’s onscreen keyboard.
Might it be possible for 2 things:
1) to make the internal onscreen keyboard hideable via a toggle switch or settings option?
2) make the interface scrollable vertically, so that one could use logic’s on-screen keyboard & have access to the lower Adsr & arp controls as well the main controls?
Ok thanks for listening!
I really like how modulation is done in UA Battalion—the way feedback is displayed on the knobs. Maybe some inspiration there. And what if you could link any parameter to the recorded modulation in one of the two windows? Would be great.
I'd also love to be able to hide the keyboard.
Same words here but they took a millisecond in my case to get to the destination
Maybe you could use @brambos’s clever idea: flicking parameters to get bespoke LFOs in motion as happens in Fluss and Skulptur? It’s such a great way to do this on a touch interface and it wouldn’t ruin the clean interface at all.
Just curious then, how would one record that flicking automation into a DAW?
Flicking stuff to make them fly around the screen might be nice for performance but not when accurate control is needed...
Yeah, keyboard hideable might come (again)
Will look at ... "how modulation is done in UA Battalion"
Fair point @Samu.
@elasticdrums Thanks for the update! I've designed my presets in auv3 but they still don't show up in standalone thought. I'm unsure if this is right or not. Thanks!
I am currently working on that. The recent update did only include the new/missing presets
This is a demo of a randomized preset created by the Elastic OSC app. I used the random function within Elastic OSC to create a kind of industrial-ambient preset that's both complex and playable. Then I switched over to the n-Keyboards app to have some extra keys to play for this demo.
Here's a better view of the preset.
👍
Just saw the video by @Gavinski and yeah I am SOLD on this… as a sound designer this scratches my itch big time. It kind of reminds me of the Iceworks synths in that they are so deep yet deceptively simple at the same time . And that ui looks really nice as well
I sent an email to mominstruments a few days ago and shared everything i could, including the PDF spec sheet on what MPE is. Haven't heard back yet.
Basically begged them to consider it. 😂
I'm crossing my fingers 🤞🏽
@elasticdrums any thoughts?
@elasticdrums I just purchased Elastic OSC
I was really looking forward to using Oscillator 24 but I can't get the oscillators built-in arpeggiator to work since it can't be independently clocked.
"Four variable square voices for chords or arpeggios (HARMO: chord, TIMBRE: arpeggio type or chord inversion, MORPH: PW/Sync, OUT: square wave voices, AUX: NES triangle voice, TIMBRE attenuverter: envelope shape). Plug a trigger input to clock the arpeggiator."
...maybe this is something that will get fixed/added at some point?
Currently oscillator 24 'drones' the selected chord when triggering a note instead of arpeggiating it.
Also a simple LFO to do basic 'vibrato' (or one of the other parameters) wouldn't hurt?
Other than that it seems to be working OK. Time to check automation in LogicPro for iPad
(AUv3 Automation using the Plug-Ins UI is 'broken' when used with LogicPro for iPad, please do add support for touch & release events to correct this).
Cheers!
@Twentype @NeuM
I am not thinking much of MPE right now.
Rather of improving the app as it is now (scaling, presets mechanism, etc), bugfixing crashs, if there are any, before adding new features.
@Samu
Oh, we deactivated the built in Arpeggiator, as there is already a general one. Manual should get updated, from our side
LFO('s) are planned, just they have to fit into the concept.
Adding a cool sequencer was another idea (but this will take a while)
Does this support the latest Plaits firmware with dx7 sysex import?
No. But that's an idea for an update also. Well, with a more modern workflow maybe
Oh, the cool things about the Chip-Tune oscillators 'built-in' arpeggiator are built-in chords where both the inversion and chord-type can easily be modulated and having a separate trigger to clock of the oscillators arpeggiator creates some nice old-school sounds. ie. one clock to the 'gate/trig' of the oscillator and the regular 'note' would just control the gate of the adsr envelope and set the root-pitch etc.
Hopefully adding the touch and release for AUParemeter events won't cause too much hassle as it would allow automation to work properly in LogicPro for iPad, GRII and a few other hosts that expect them.

Oh, thanks for the hint.
About the chiptune Arp. It was just weird to have 2 Arpeggiators in there (also chaotic funny though). Maybe we should reconsider
