Pulse - Beat Making Music Studio / Audio Sequence v1.0

  • Pulse is an Audio Loop Sequencer. I love the idea, the concept of this App, even if I have some wishes for a future update... Note that Pulse is still a baby, v1.0... So, you have 16 tracks (each track is a Pulse out Midi channel). For each of this track you import an audio sample (from the built in Library or your own one by the Open in feature) to create your sequence. You can also use a Track to send the midi to an other App. To edit your sequence, you have 2 possibilities: the live mode and or the grid editor. For the live mode, you can use one of the 2 built in keyboards. The first one, at the top, is a classic keyboard. 3 octaves (enough to work with samples) that will detune the sample higher or lower depending of the Key you play. Here is my first wish. A Time Stretching option will be really great... The second keyboard, at the bottom, will repeat the sample while you hold a key. Here also, the sample will detune according to the key you play. Note that here, it's really cool and I don't need a Time Stretching feature. To set the number of note's repetition, you use the Step's parameter in the Tempo menu. By pulling down the Track's bar, you access the grid editor. A 1 bar, 16 steps editor. 1 bar only... Here comes my second wish.. 1 bar is too short for me... I really love this App and I think that it can become a Master piece of my setup, but 1 bar... My natural bpm is between 90 and 110. I tried to divide the Tempo by 2, unfortunately the shortest value is 60... A little break... I understand, the concept of this App, but when I started to use it for this review, I realize that it could be the missing App from the App Store. I explain: when I start to work on a song, most of time it's with a loop. Great to create an atmosphere... So, I take my Master loop, import it into Auria, and start to add Drum instruments. Percussions, Fx, Pads... I also start to shape the sound... During all this time, this creative period, I want to go fast, I only need to be creative... After, I spend a lot of time to quantize everything, to check out everything... Boring... Only after this I use the Midi... Before to mix my Song, I bounce all my tracks, I create a mixdown for each (no more Midi) and start my Mix... I want to use Pulse for this first period! It's great, because it come with Effects, Filters and a great UI also (even if I prefer to work in Landscape mode). I said that I understood Pulse, Yes, Pulse is made to create an entire Song with Loops... So, Pulse developers, can you create exactly the same App for me, but not to create a song, just to create an awesome loop! With time stretching, plugins insert per track (Audio Unit and Inter App). A sound Replacer too?. And please, the possibility to work with a 100 steps loop on 1 bar only. In summary: Pulse is very well done, It's a Super App with any doubt and I am sure that it will become better and better... I will use it... But from now and because of Pulse I had a Dream... I hope that the developers team will listen to it! A Super App!

    Because I can read everywhere a Policy...

    1. this blog is man by a human for humans
    2. I can make some mistakes (because I am a human)
    3. Nothing will deleted or removed from this blog. For my mistakes or angers, apologies and corrections will be added if needed.
    4. You can see everyday on a banner in the What's hot today post the Apps offered by a developer...
    5. If you participate to the Sunday Contest, you will have to trust in me... But, if you like you can asked me the email list of the readers who participate to a Contest included Time and Date. I will send it to you...
    6. My rating... The first criterion is the App Store description. The last one is my taste and this is totally subjective... Each post come with a tutorial showing you all the knobs, menu, faders,.... Everything that you will be able to find in an App... I hope that this will help to make your own rating.
    7. If I really don't like an App, don't understand it or found too many bugs, I send an email to the developer.... I asked him if the App will be update shortly, I also offer my services as Beta Tester.... Most of the time, I will wait for a future update... Developers are humans too!...
    8. All comments will be publish here. For insults, offenses or very bad mood, the only restriction is that you have to sign with your real name...
    9. I don't know... Peraphs that I will add something later.
