Personally i find patterning a little annoying, for me it is one of those IOS apps that looks great when you see it, should be great considering the touchscreen, but just feels alien because of various things.
Loading samples for example, you will find it easy enough to import samples from BM3, but they have to be imported, then found in user samples, then loaded to a pad, you cant just load to a pad, all a bit "IOS is a pain" and very pre IOS 11.
A nice overhaul could have it kicking serious ass, but it just feels like an IAP showroom.
But I like this app.... It's real easy to create dynamic moving beats.. Using different steps per bar, play backwards etc. It looks really good and you can send midi to Beatmaker so you can sequence AU synths...

I didn't think it had IAP? Are there IAP for features or just for kits? Not an issue if just the latter.
Ideally it would be AUv3 for ios use. But I'm mainly looking at this for use with other gear, a lot of good feedback on hardware forums, so not a dealbreaker for me on this one. And as long as it responds to IAA transport I'll probably be able to get some good use out of it in BM3 too.
Probably grab it later today unless I find something better/weirder out there.

Thanks. Yeh the features look good. The per step stuff and sequencer flexibility. Ui looks fast too.

Sorry, could have worded that better, no there are no IAP kits, it just has a browser designed for such, the kits are all free.

From what I read the kit browser is largely community based tho and free/simple to upload/download right? That seems like a good thing to me, not a negative?

Been on the radar for ages and saw its on sale. Might grab it. Anyone know if I could browse/import samples to it from my BM3 samples folder?
It's quite easy actually.
In patterning tap on the 'Sample Waveform'. Tap 'Import' and choose 'iCloud'(Which is practice is the DocumentPicker/Files.app UI), tap the Browse icon and go to On My iPad->BM3 and so on...
