I'm really liking the latest version of the Circle. Definitely coming together nicely.

Do you have the tracks locked to any kind of grid? Is there a master tempo?

IK Multimedia announced BlueBoard,a bluetooth core midi 4 button foot pedal.50 $ cheaper than Airturn

And on twitter they said that they will look into Audiobus as soon as the SDK goes public.

Nice looking board. I gotta say I like the look of this more than the Airturn.

Kinda concerned about company support if I buy it, though. So I'll be putting my extra $50 into the Airturn.

The master tempo is 105BPM, but it is maybe a bit loose here and there..
the track right now is all bits an pieces, no real master grid. It is the very first time I'm working on a DAW to this extent, kind of a steep learning curve just doing the mixing and all!!
Right now I've maybe 18-19 tracks in there, almost lost count....

But, every time I'm uploading the track to soundcloud and sit down and for the first time really listen to the clip I get almost proud about it. I would never manage to come this far on GB!!!

BTW, I've updating The Circle right now. A tiny adjustment and an addition of viola on the closing part.
And, thanks for the feedback!

They've been saying that since Audiobus was first released. Smells like a fat one to me. Audiobus will cramp IK's style. They like to keep all apps in the family, so it goes completely against that.

It's always fun watching a baby being born.

Not sure if you guys noticed but on the very last parts of The Circle the Rickenbacker is doubling as a guitar. So if you hear a non midi-guitar its the Ric.

Rip Topaz · #**629** 01-22-2013, 04:52 AM

Update for DM1 this morning. Now includes support for Audiobus!!!

So now you can play your drums into the Circle in real time, instead of trying to get loops to line up!!

Rip Topaz · #**632** 01-22-2013, 04:59 AM

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. This comes at a perfect time!!

I can't say I disagree with you

Great!Sounds like a soundtrack for some french avant-gard movie.Really cool

Just a quick heads up for anyone using DM1 via Audiobus on iPhone.

There are some caching issues that are causing the normal distortion. We've all seen this happen before, and it fixes itself within a few days. Like I said, it's a caching issue and is only happening (so far) with iPhones.

An easy fix is to start all your apps outside of Audiobus, then open Audiobus and make your connections, then minimize Audiobus and forget about it. Use the "old fashioned way" to switch between apps, NOT the tab for Audiobus.

Again, it'll fix itself in a couple of days.

Here's a quick write up about the Blueboard. It sounds cool, the AAA batteries appear to only power the LEDs.

So now it just seems to be a race as to which one is available first.

IK is releasing theirs in the second quarter of 2013.

Airturn is available now as a two button model. The four button has no release date yet.

Since my tax time Apogee Jam purchase already happened, it looks like my money is going to whoever can place it in my hands first.

The airturn and onsong apps look cool. Further down the rabbit hole!

For real. Every day it seems I wonder what it would be like if I'd have just taken the blue pill.

reddavid · #**639** 01-22-2013, 08:56 AM

It looks like you can buy the airturn 4 switch now. They even have refurbs available?!

I want to tell you to throw all the tracks my way and let me put it through logic 9 but I want you to birth that baby!

I love the way your "labor" has been progressing
