KONKREET PERFORMER V.1.2

KONKREET PERFORMER V.1.2 from Konkreet Labs on Vimeo.


"The KONKREET PERFORMER Version 1.2 release is now available via the Apple App Store.

We've added something special: INERTIA control, enabling smooth morphing, from fast and responsive to ultra slow gradual transitions.

Inertia will give you new behaviour when:

- dragging the object pulls the nodes according to inertia
- using snapshots or jump mode sets a target to which the object then morphs according to inertia

Inertia Features:

- Variable Inertia Setting: for smooth morphing transitions in your music
- A value of zero disables inertia
- Around 30 is the equivalent of the old "easing" speed in version 1.0.6
- 100 is the maximum inertia, for super slow movement.
- Control Inertia from Preferences Screen or directly via the Ribbon (for real-time changes during performance)
- Gestures (rotate/pinch) can be used seamlessly without interrupting the morphing movement

Additionally new to V1.2:

- Snapshot Enhancement: Snapshot buttons now respond to touches dragged across them for really fast changes

"PERFORMER uses a shape that is a visual representation of the sound, which you can sculpt using multitouch and gestures, giving a completely new and dynamic method of musical expression.

- It does not generate sounds by itself. It is a controller!
- It controls your synth and DAW via OSC messages over your iPad wifi connection"

Note you can map OSC messages to MIDI to control your MIDI synths as well. Via the getting started guide:

"PERFORMER + other MIDI software
Using an OSC to MIDI converter, PERFORMER can be used to control all MIDI-based DAWs and synths.

Install one of these three easy options for converting OSC to MIDI:
OSCulator (Mac OS X)
OSCulator is an easy to use and versatile OSC/MIDI conversion utility. Once OSCulator is installed and running, load one of the PERFORMER-ready OSCulator presets – download link. KP_osculator.oscd is a good one to start.
MAX/MSP patch by Alkama (Windows & Mac OS X) – Free
PureData Patch (Windows & Mac OS X) – Free"

  2. Agreed. With sysex support if possible. It's the one thing holding me off from picking it up.
