  • @AmpifyxNovation Hi Matt. Thanks for asking by the way. I really hope you respond to some of the requests and, more importantly, implement them. It seems like a fair trade off for us to keep buying the sound packs. I think these requests will mean these apps get used much more in iOS productions.

    Fingers crossed!

    That was a lot of stuff.
    I’m curious about the reply from @AmpifyxNovation

    Lol, wast just about to type something similar...
    It's a long thread already and should keep the developers busy for months to come :)

    Do you import to zurich ?

    If I want to import a full or longer loop than Bilbao can handle, I use Zurich, e.g. in Spindrift, the acoustic guitar is a whole complete loop in Zurich from Blocs. But most recently I’ve been using the Blocs editor to randomise drum patterns, export each of the four segments separately, and restructure them in Gadget by assigning them to Bilbao pads as they are much shorter loops which Bilbao is ok with. Zurich has been very useful in Gadget for importing longer sequences that I’ve made in other synths like LayR.

    Obviously it goes without saying, when exporting chopped up stuff, get it into Audioshare and first make sure the start and end of the sample are on the zero crossing, with a little trim & fade from Audioshare before sending it to Zurich, otherwise you will get clicks & pops when looping. Zurich lacks quite a bit of fine control for editing and positioning of imported audio files, but with a little sample preparation beforehand in consideration of this, you can usually get what you want with a little thoughtful workaround if needed. Zurich has been great for getting sequences I’ve made in Groovebox into Gadget.

  • Thanks so much to the Ampify colleagues for at least "listening" to our requirements and being transparent about what is going at their side even if they are or not good news (INTUA are you hearing?). I didn't go through all the thread so perhaps it was already mentioned but my requirements would be:

    • Groovebox, zoom option for the keyboard:
      The keyboard in Groovebox is great!!! Only problem is that in scale mode in a iPad pro 9.7 it is too small and being able to zoom would be great.

    • Groovebox, simple EQ:
      In my workflow I basically work with Groovebox (drum, bass and synth sounds) and Blocs Wave (background sounds, FX, etc.) both linked via Ableton link. When I have something that it works I just export to BM3 and finish arranging and mixing there. In order to have different tracks in Groovebox and Blocs Wave at the same time it is really important for me to have a basic EQ just to pre-mix the sounds and glue them... All I need is a really basic EQ to filter low and high frequencies and clean the sounds. As the EQ is already available for Blocs Wave I don't think it would take much effort to implement it in Groovebox.

    @AmpifyxNovation thanks again for listening to us and please continue developing these great tools!!!!

    I used to love Blocs Wave, but eventually gave up on it because the file management for imported samples was too limited. I’d love to see that improved.

    This is my number one thing too! Suggestion for improvenent: just allow us to make custom tags that are the functional equivalent of a purchased soundset. The functionality is already there! But if you allowed us to group our own user samples the same way that purchased samples are already grouped it would make blocs wave soooo much more useful for the people who already love using it :)

    Works for me.

  • GrooveBox :

    • Midi ports input (and channels) per instrument
    • Preset save per instrument
    • Multiple Audio output ports
  • Blocs wave and launchpad NEED to be AU and have drag&drop between them and other AU plugins.

    That would be the game changer for ios and lead the way for others

    I know. These apps would get way more use from me if they were AU. More sales too I expect. I’m a stuck record now though! I think emailing the developers privately every time they go the old IAA route is the least annoying way for me to request this going forward rather than spoiling the new app launch party which is what I currently do :smiley:

    Some of the components of the apps for sure would make great AU's, the synths from Groovebox, or a loop player/editor from blocs, the FX from Launchpad, but I don't see the benefit of the apps themselves being AU.

    It doesn’t matter. I’m gone man, solid gone... :joy:

  • edited October 2018

    Dunno if it’s been said, but Blocs Wave discover tool should include user loops @AmpifyxNovation. That alone would make it a total workstation for me.

  • Blocs Wave: A song mode where you can string together sections - repeat loops x number of times, transposition, etc.

    Obviously these free apps are to sell sound packs, and that's cool. The incentive to buy packs to edit, arrange into compositions, and to jam with would be much greater for me if there was a song mode.

    Blocs wave doesent need to be full screen to be any better. It would make a great looper recorder for aum. This would be useful in countless of ways.

    Dropping loops to launchpad would get very fast. Launchpad would make a killer composition tool for the loops. I wouldnt try to jam full songs with it, but juwt use it as a sort of sketchpad for the loops. Now imagine that launchpad leaving enough room to run some midi sequencer or two(on a big pros screen at least) at the same time with launchpad. Full screen launchpad does for better for proer jam session, but having it as an au when comping would be something else. But being able to have other aus open at the same time would be pretty sweet just for jamming as well.

    There kind of is with the different sections, beyond it's only half way down the path unfortunately....

    I haven’t used Blocs in a bit but don’t you have to be pretty precise to get them to switch in time? A song mode or at least a synced start (start B when A is done) would be helpful.

    True. It would be some improvement if the sections could just be automated to follow one another after a set number of loops. Seems easy to implement, but maybe most users don't care one way or another. It's still a fun ad useful app for what it does. One thing I don't really need is AUv3, which is apparently a large undertaking for the developer anyway.

    Absolutely agree. Not everyone has my delicately perfect timing etc.

    Agree on the Auv3 for this one. And also on the simplest of 'click on to the next pattern' song modes.....as always any variation on how DM1 or Beathawk skin the thing would be incredibly useful/welcome...

    I see what you are saying, but consider this....
    Having a single loop player/editor from blocs as AU would mean you could easily host and route them to different fx and busses in AUM/AB/apeMatrix/Modstep etc....., if playback could be triggered via midi note then you could build your own launchpad app within your host.

    Drag and drop between apps/au’s would be sweet, but not sure if drag and drop actually allows this or if it’s restricted to being within an app.

    I don’t have a pro so cannot test, but does launchpad work with split screen? I use launchpad hardware which means I can have LP app in background with other apps in foreground, for me that’s mainly Groovebox.

    Taking this further, Launchpad app could be an AU host to host the blocs player/editor as well as midi sequencers etc, that would be totally awesome !

  • I scanned 2nd 3rd pages

    Haven't seen any responses from AMP/NOV.

  • No responses, but that doesn’t mean anything. Just like it didn’t mean anything way back when Groovebox first launched and ampify said they were listening to the repeated calls for presets.
    It’s easy enough to post intermittent messages saying you’re listening, but really actions are what’s needed. I could stick a post-it note on my cat’s bowl saying « tuna tonight! » but she would’t believe me until I tipped it out of the can.

  • I think this thread is the online equivalent of ringing the doorbell and running away...

    Ampify Groovebox is my favorite music app ever. For me, the immediacy of the UI just can’t be beat for live performance and improvisation. It lacks lots of pro features, of course, but for my uses there’s one thing Groovebox most desperately needs:

    Multi-port audio output.

    This would let me twiddle away endlessly and record it all to multitrack stems (with, say, AUM or Auria) for later mixing and mastering.

    Really—if Groovebox could do this, I might never touch another synth app again.😄

    The above.
    Also octave shift for BlocsWave so that when you transpose into another key all the way around the circle it doesn’t turn “chipmunk”

  • Great to have you here, Matt. Happy with my Ampify investment.

    In general, to echo others here, Files app integration, MIDI mapping and multiple audio output lanes are my biggest Ampify requests.

    Nice mock up @Shabudua!
