At first, I had a big problem in Logic. Everything was never in sync with my tempo. It was driving me crazy, making me think this app was too hard to use and not for me. Then, I figured my Logic was set up for 48khz, and switched it to 44.1, and bam. It worked… and wow… just setting 2 midi notes on a loop, and playing with the settings, I came up with hundreds of beautiful melodies. After understanding what each option does by trial and error, I understood how I can not just create, but evolve these melodies in real time. This is criminally cheap for what it can do. It blows my collection of midi sequencers out of the water, and it’s so easy to use once you spend a few minutes understanding it. Buy this, load up some beautiful synths patches, and go on a journey. This app is pure bliss.

Obviously it can’t exist in a vacuum, but I’ve ever had the thought “this is the best thing I’ve bought for making noise!” Lacking features for iOS: MIDI Learn + iPhone compatibility - hope those are on the roadmap!
unique and wonderful midi generator

There is a lot to like about this midi generator with nothing I know quite like it in functionality. I am only removing one star because I feel the interface needs to be adapted for a touchscreen. The UX clearly was designed for a desktop user first. On the iPad 12.9 some buttons are so small it requires the Apple Pencil for any type of accuracy. Imagine if this had big kinetic sliders for live play…

I posted about the AUV3 version not working and also contacted the dev on the support site. The response was positive and immediate.This app is a very original & creative design and well worth checking out if you’re into generative, ambient type musical ideas.Kudos to the dev. Great job.
-Long-press on drop-down controls (e.g. Scale, Root, Note Collection) now shows and gives access to the contextual menu (Keep on Preset Switch, Reset Value, MIDI Learn, Add to Global Randomisation), while a normal tap opens the combo box options.
- FIXED: CC controls can now control Play/Stop.
- It is now possible to lock the minimum note in any playback mode by right-clicking on the Min Note control and selecting Lock. Previously, this value could only be controlled by incoming notes or by changing it manually.
- You can keep the state of min and max notes when switching presets by enabling the "Keep on preset switch" option.
-Enhanced Server Management & Communication: Upgraded the server-side processes to ensure more reliable communication and better handling of packs within the plugin. This means faster updates, more stable connections, and improved performance.
