A follow on from Part 1, Obviously. I tried adding more CV modulation to it and triggered the Complex Envelope (A-143-1) with the VCLFO/VCO (A-143-4).
It's more random now, but it's not as nice as the simpler Part 1.

Retronyms Releases Major Update to Tabletop for iPad

"December 14, 2012 — San Francisco, CA

Today Retronyms released a major new update to Tabletop for iPad. This free update adds several new features including a Timeline Editor, MIDI support, and Session Sharing. Retronyms also announced that iMPC will work inside Tabletop as the first Tabletop-Ready App.

Timeline Editor
The brand new Timeline Editor is designed from the ground up to provide a fast and powerful way to create and edit notes using intuitive multi-touch gestures:

Cut, copy, paste, duplicate, and create notes.
Correct note timing with Fix to Grid.
Edit note length and velocity.
Undo any changes and edits with Tabletop’s History Menu.
MIDI Controller Support

Users can control Tabletop devices with their favorite hardware MIDI controllers. Connect with USB via Apple’s Camera Connection Kit and use Tabletop’s “MIDI Learn” mode to painlessly map controls and set up MIDI devices:

Features Core MIDI Support.
Works with any MIDI-compatible hardware.
Control Tabletop’s keyboards, drum pads, knobs, faders, and other parameters.
Customize control mapping with Midi Learn mode.
Connect multiple devices.
Share Sessions

Tabletop users have shared thousands of songs on CloudSeeder, the in-app community built on SoundCloud, and with session sharing users can now share complete song projects. After a user uploads a track, another can download, remix, and post it back to the community. All building blocks are included in the shared session - from synth presets to custom samples to sequencing data.

Tabletop-Ready Apps
An important milestone in the evolution of music apps on iOS, Tabletop Ready Apps are stand-alone apps that work inside Tabletop. When users purchase a Tabletop Ready App, a free version is automatically unlocked inside Tabletop. Users can place apps from top music brands in their Tabletop sessions, seamlessly integrating with the dozens of devices already available.

Two Tabletop-Ready Apps are soon to be released including the iMPC from Akai Professional.

About Tabletop
