Comments
I'll tell you after Christmas...
Jamstik+ , I like this use it a lot.
Santa will bring hopefully my roli blocks this year
Is the wired / wireless aspect important?
Good question.
I dig my LIVID MIMIC and am peaking at the Akai bluetooth stuff.
I am looking more sequencer vs. launchpad pro for clips AND ABILITY TO PLAY CHORDS with VELOCITY sensitivity.
Kicking it all around.
Nothing is off the table.
Circuit.....for chords, scales mode on pads and velocity sensitive.....no good for clip launching (in LP App anyway)
+1 - Circuit is a blast with or without iOS. Clip launching in Looptunes should be possible, although I haven't tried it yet.
Would like to hear about your efforts when you do...
Ok, I tested it, and it works, but I probably wouldn't use Circuit to launch Looptunes clips.
The buttons in Circuit send note values, and midi learn in Looptunes will accept note values and toggle the respective clip as you would expect, but you have to more or less sacrifice a function of Circuit to use it. To me it makes much more sense to throw a midi controller/keyboard into the mix that you can dedicate a few buttons on to launching clips.
Well thank you. And yes, if one had/has something to hand that would probably be sensible.
Arturia Beatstep Pro is great, works very well with Cubasis and @brambos Ruismaker Plugins, it´s a very good combination.
What's Santa's budget? I mean like, top max realistic price point?
$500
Ok, thank you.
In that case I offer this idea for your consideration:
If possible, wait til next year plus any sale opportunities and combine both budgets for this:

I personally recommend this as my most useful piece of recording gear, easy, reliable, tiny, built like a tank, makes any good mic sound incredible, lowest noise floor available and virtually unclippable, runs in active use for 4-6 hours straight on 2 AA rechargeables, connects directly via CCK to iPad and iPhone. And, it saves a lot on a bunch of other cheaper gear combining to do what this does all by itself.
So awesome.
If you don't use microphones then never mind, sorry to interrupt.
How can you use it with ruismaker? The drum sequencer doesn't send note information, so how do you trigger different drums? Ruismaker has them all on the "Black keys" in different octaves, so I could play them on the normal sequencer tracks but I need those for other stuff.
Just get a circuit,even without iOS it's just a ton of fun. Feels good not staring at a screen and having everything hands-on.
I'm putting a second Launchcontrol XL on my wishlist. They're awesome for virtual synths and host control, especially since you have 16 pages to use.
And a Microfreak to find out who really loves me.
