  • Great update! Nice job :)
  • Awesome. I've got a few large patches of mapped samples that I need to set loop points on. I'm going to kick that down the road until the update hits and enjoy the all new improvements!!
  • Excellent, thanks for the sample editor improvements!

    There are still some cases of pure horribleness in BM3 for me.

    Trying to adjust a dial with your finger accurately when the value readout is under your finger (What the actual f**k, put the damn value next to the dial like all the others, poor poor design, too late to change now i suspect)

    Trying to adjust a dial when it is at the bottom of the screen and bam, you run out of screen.

    Trying to adjust a dial accurately and you have no idea if it is going to be one of the super fast moving dials, or super slow moving dials.

    Selecting a note and creating a new note by mistake, then trying to select that new mistake note to delete it and creating another.

    Using the zoom button in the piano roll which shrinks so small vertically that you can see all 128 notes, then trying to resize using pinch zoom and realising that my wrist actually doesn't twist that way and smashing the iPad off the wall is the much better option right now anyway.

    The list does go on quite a bit, but my negativity is frowned upon in here, so i have curbed it.

  • Hopefully it will all get fixed

  • The value of a knob should be a floating box out to the side with the value in it as you move the dial. Touchable has this and it's fantastic.

    Great update! I would like to see recording performances in scene mode into song mode in a future update.

    Negativity is always welcomed! :) Anyway, I don't really use BM3 much as of yet, because I'm still not sure if my problems are from user error, bugs in the app or just simply lack of easy workflow (for me, I know that many are quite comfortable with the layout). I remain optimistic that things will get worked out - this latest update seems to address many glitches.

  • Negativity is ok, but doing it in a constructive manner is optimal. Not saying you are doing it in a non-constructive manner @5pinlink just stating that when anyone does things in an insulting, demeaning, etc, way then people will most likely retaliate. Sometimes people are super passionate about how a specific thing disrupts their workflow and go off on it. That's ok, but when someone is just going off on everything, then they should probably just move on, IMHO. I don't see you doing that at all.

    I, for one, appreciate your candor and ideas immensely so keep up the good work!

  • I think i should probably just post a lot less by the looks of things haha

  • Nice update.
  • +1 fix the zoom. Set a max zoom out limit. No vertical zoom needed!!!!!!!
  • Nice work on this update! Very cool.
  • I'm liking the "visual improvements" like consolidating the chord/scales into the velocity/roll "zone" and incorporating a keyboard shortcut on the sidebar... copy and paste to the pattern editor and adjusting the note length. So stoked to try out this new version! :smiley:
  • no fix/change for the current au and iaa Problems? perhaps they are gone with iOS 11?

  • but anyway: nice update!

  • Nobody has really discussed the addition of a master session tuning function, but that's a huge thing for me! Totally unexpected too!
