StepPolyArp for iPad controlling an Oberheim FVS

"Just a quick demo to show this awesome iPad application. The StepPolyArp iPad application hooks up wirelessly to a Windows or OSX computer. I currently have the StepPolyArp app talking with Logic Pro that then drives a Doepfer MCV24 to go from midi to CV and Gate. The Oberheim is being triggered in Unison for all 4 Voices on every step. Each voice is being panned right/left to create a nice stereo effect with a total of 8 oscillators.

The perfect companion for any analogue synth.

Audio signal path is:

Oberheim FVS==>Eventide 2016==>Prism Orpheus AD

iPad STEP POLY ARP Preview! Control your synth wirelessly

"Control your laptop or synth by wireless MIDI! Full review coming soon...

This app transmits note patterns wirelessly to your computer*, or soon, via MIDI cable, with the MIDI Mobilizer peripheral, to any MIDI capabable source. (*Of course you can also then route the MIDI through your computer to any MIDI out port.)

I thought there should be an App that does this... and here it is! Very handy for the serious electronic musician.
(Beginners should probably start on one of several "all in one" apps - not that there's anything wrong with that!)

The set up was easier than any wireless control app I have tried. Just follow the directions
(more general in focus than the 2 Ableton specific Apps, much easier to set up and feature rich than the OSC apps.)"

  1. you need to control Logic via iPad to make it Logic send notes to logic which will send notes to the Oberheim - I assume that is because most DAWs do not offer proper TR style sequencing..

  2. I really wish I could send a poly sequence to the Four Voice with the MCV24, but the English manual from Doepfer is a joke. They only translated a small section from the German manual. When I wrote to doepfer asking about a complete translation, they told me to use babelfish. Can you believe that?
