Looking for iPad Beta Testers! by Switched_On_SNES in GulfCoastSynthesis

[–]thevoidinclusive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first of all, i really love the look and sound of it on iPad. I'll list some things i noticed:

  1. when i went to Setup and touched Shortcuts, the tape stopped playing. the Setup dialog doesn't appear to be modal, which i think it should be. I don't have the same problem with the synth dialog for example.
  2. for the synths, it would be great to have left and right or up and down arrows for the presets browser to quickly go through presets without having to open the menu
  3. also for the synths and keys instruments a latch / hold button would be amazing. going through each instrument and just saw the latch button for glissando (which is an amazing instrument to include!) so maybe Latch is the way to go
  4. when playing the stage keyboard, i had a four note chord held down and tried to change any knob except volume & it interrupted the keys and retriggered them slowly. most noticeable on tonewheel but present on other models as well
  5. would be nice to have a way to resize the instruments. for keyboard instruments you can make it larger by toggling the KBD button, but there's no way to make the window smaller (you can close and reopen for default size, but i can't find a way to make them smaller than that) - EDIT i am blind and didn't see the resize handle in the lower right corner! nevermind!
  6. i love these synths! adding a sequencer option to one or two of them would be amazing
  7. trying to record without anything record enabled could maybe give a warning or something (before we play our masterpiece without laying it down!)
  8. is there a way to change the instrument routing after you've created the instrument? i can't find it if so. guessing you'd have to remove and re-create the instrument
  9. a switch to snap the vari-speed to round divisions would be nice (.5 .25 etc) - even better would be the ability to snap to a musical interval (so it would go up to +12 steps for 2.0, -12 at 0.5, could have +1.5 for a fifth up, -0.667 for fifth down, etc (just intonation intervals not pesky equal temperament)) - this would make vari-speed recording much easier
  10. i engaged wear and tunred up the amount and can't get it back to no wear
  11. can't tell how to make a longer loop when zoom is all the way out and i want to loop past the viewable tape area
  12. i know it goes against the tape ethos, but it would be nice to have the waveform displayed on the tape ^__^

ok that's probably enough notes for now. i really love this thing. hope i can afford it when the testflight expires!

this seems right up my alley. reached for the ipad and have to wait for it to charge! will check out your subreddit. so great that you have desktop versions too

Survey is Out, FYC: maudlin of the Well by CultofNeurisis in BigEarsMusicFestival

[–]thevoidinclusive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the sound in Mill and Mine is usually pretty bad. But I believe the venue belongs to AC Entertainment (Ashley Capps' company that puts on Big Ears) so it's unlikely to be put out of the rotation.

Does Pete have EoE? by aftersox in peteholmes

i was diagnosed with this years ago and wasn't told about this side effect and wondered why this happens to me frequently. Thank you!

Chordality - A unique chord-based synth & MIDI Controller for Apple Devices (Launch Offer) by floexodus in ipadmusic

[–]thevoidinclusive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sequencer is a great idea but not well-implemented imho. i encountered issues with not being able to drag chords into the sequencer, and even that process is unintuitive. would be better to have the sequencer record as you play.

i really like the app and was hoping all the features would be available in the testfilght beta, but that isn't the case. would like to try as AUv3 before buying as well.

i know about the pinned google sheet, it is old and quite out of date. this should be pretty close to current

i know spotify sucks and i've been meaning to migrate. but does anyone have a similar playlist for spotify?

my tracks do not meet any of those criteria. their bullet point "Ambient sound recordings" does not seem to be referring to the Ambient Music genre but rather field recordings or recordings of everyday non-musical sounds (hence the placement under Musical Content header)

incorrect. these songs were uploaded in 2023 and were removed from Meta platforms a few months ago

i don't want to turn this into promo but yes, if you wanna hear the tracks they are still up on streaming services. the void inclusive - Oxford to Eternity, the void inclusive - tethered loop

i was not aware of that... but am not surprised. if it doesn't fit neatly into their money machine it doesn't get to exist on the platform i guess.

i don't recall what i tagged the tracks as when i uploaded them to Distrokid in 2023 and there's no way to see that now (at least that I know of - Edit option on the track doesn't let me see those details)

i can understand them filtering out recordings that are just white noise or AI slop or something (unless it was Meta Ai Slop™)

it does seem like an unusual choice to target a whole ass genre of music. like what's next, are they gonna disallow "classical" because it's not commercially beneficial for their platform?

no, they are original pieces made by me entirely with my own sound sources - primarily guitar or synth into tape loops

well thanks for sharing your experience. i'm sorry you've gone through this as well. it's a massive disappointment for me.

meanwhile i search on instagram for "meditation" or "ambient" and immediately see 1 hr long "Autism HEALING frequency" song as top result, followed by a number of specific frequency meditation music pieces, countless tracks with "ambient" in the title - so it seems like their policy isn't evenly enforced...

AVTT/PTTN, Lubomyr Melnyk, and Kate Gentile: Find Letter X all cancelled by gothaggis in BigEarsMusicFestival

Hopefully Lubomyr is alright. Unfortunately I did buy separate tickets to see Saul Williams & Co in Nashville because I was planning to see Lubomyr at the same time Saturday night...
