[Feature Request] Sawtooth LFO

Häxanäx — Wed, 01 Apr 2020 11:57:19 +0000

How do I make a saw-down LFO? Seems a strange omission to have Ramp in the LFO types (Saw Up) but not standard Sawtooth (Saw Down).

I need BM2 Sound Library/Pack converted to use with BM3

I really need the original sound library (pack) that came with BM2 to use (if possible) on BM3. Do you sell the original BM2 sound libray's DRUM MACHINE and KEYBOARD SAMPLER converted to work on BM3? I've searched through all 19 of your posted BM3 sound packs and could not find BM2's original sounds.

Please tell me this is something you can do and how much will it cost? LOL

“Save as” in any document

What if you don’t want it saved in sessions automatically? I want to be able to just save it anywhere I want.

Calculate mode and live stretch

Hello
Is it possible to add in preferences the option to set as default some settings like live stretch and calculate mode enabled?
Like this we just can create and not make the same routine when import a loop

Midi to External Hardware synths

printer1 — Tue, 27 Nov 2018 09:34:34 +0000

Best as I can tell, this is a documented feature (documented as it’s in the manual) that doesn’t work in Beatmaker 3. If I follow all instructions in the manual to set input and output ports I can’t connect to external synths. In particular, have been trying with a Vermona Perfourmer. No matter what channels and what ports I set (with an iConnect A4+) midi is only sent out on channel 1.

This is my first post and perhaps I need to explain more clearly——but it’s shame external midi is a non-working feature in an otherwise amazing app. I’ve seen online workaround that have to do with assigning samples to pads and then setting the length of the sample to 0 or so, but that’s a kludge, at best?

In a perfect world, I should be able to set input and output MIDI channels for tracks and banks such that they’re as accessible as all of the bank soundsets or the IAA or AU instruments that can easily be assigned to where they’re needed.

Or maybe a different way to state it is an external midi controller and external hardware synths seem, by design, to difficult to use and access?

If I’m missing something simple that’s covered elsewhere, which is easy enough to do, I’d be very appreciative if someone would direct me to the appropriate resource!

Or perhaps all of this is already under review and on the way to a change in a next update?

Mix-stage features

BM3 has been the best thing for my creative workflow on iOS since Audiobus launched the mobile music movement in the first place. That being said, I find myself frustrated at the lack of some basic features any DAW should have.

I'd really like:

The ability to rearrange audio and bank tracks in the mix and song views
Subgroups, or the ability to bus channels to an aux track for group processing (yes you can use pre-fader sends, but that's a janky work-around)
Individual insert effects for drum bank pads
Fade tabs on the edges of audio clips in the song view. (The option to add cross-fades would be great too for rendered loops that have reverb tails, etc.)

Perhaps BM3 was never intended to be more than a sketchpad for musical ideas, but I really think that with these features you'd have a true all in one solution for mobile music production.

hi adore this app is really amazing, use on mac ableton live and live the ipad only with this app, which I find a meeting point between ableton and masculine, but much more comfortable for the protability and ease of use, I suggest in my opinion what could improve even more completeness

1 to be able to export ableton project / set format

2 related to Maschine: RANDOMIZATION AND HUMANIZATION - the possibility of randomizing position and velocity in the roll plane

3 always related to Maschine: LOCK FUNCTION - freeze the set to apply effects and more and then return to the initial settings

4 always related to Maschine: GATE MODE - the ability to use the gate on loops during playback using pads and key mode
