record interapp audio as track, not sample; non-quant MIDI
Got BM3 yesterday, I'm really liking it so far - l got a simple song going pretty easily - it sounds great, & I love the workflow.
My big request is that recording audio from other Apps has to be done as a sample instead of raw audio going into the mixer (like you would record a microphone). I tried to get a drum track from Funk Drummer in & was stymied... I read that I had to record it as a sample and trigger it, which to me is not a great way of working at all - it should be treated like any other audio. Feature Request #1!
My 2nd request is to be able to record MIDI (whether by hitting pads or from external device) without any quantization at all (min i think is 1/64) - i plan on using a electronic drum set (yamaha) to record drums, but play with certain drums doing a push or pull on the beat, and quantization kills this. can we have raw MIDI record? Feature Request #2!
Love the app all, great job!

@thumbslapper - Funk Drummer is an IAA, yes? You may need to patch that in through Audiobus 3. AUV3 apps are more direct.
If I understand you correctly, you can indeed record midi with quantization. Just turn off "Q" at the top of Song mode.
@thumbslapper - had the exact same question - Mathieu's answer below:
This way, you can hit record and have the recording go straight to Audio Track without sampling it.
Works nicely, thanks!
thx ALB/dimsumham for the tips! i'll check them out tonite...
btw, huge props for giving odd time signature support in this app - nothing pisses me off more then only have 4/4 (with maybe 6/8) support in an app.
I plan on also using BM3 as a drum sampler for my Yamaha electronic drum set - with per-pad AU plugins avail it should be awesome...
