Massive Update for ex-Waldorf Wolfram Franke's Stroke Machine

iTunes: Stroke Machine - Wolfram Franke

"What's New in Version 2.0.0
• Maximum settings of Bar, Beat and Step highly increased. Now a pattern can have up to 16 bars with 16 beats with 16 steps each. This amounts to up to 256 64th notes per bar and 4096 64th notes in total. Please don't blame us if you mess up your patterns, but send us audio links to interesting tracks you've created with it.
• AudioBus 2 support including saving and loading of the current Stroke Machine kit.
• Added Mix view with important mix parameters for the percussion and melody sounds like Mute, Solo, Volume, Pan, FX Bus and FX Send. To automate them, activate the respective Modulation Sequence.
• Added Pad view with big, velocity-sensitive pads for the 12 percussion sounds.
• Added MIDI channel selection for each melody sound and all percussion sounds to 1 to 16, Omni (all channels) and Off (no channel).
• Layer sounds by setting several parts to the same MIDI channel.
• Added Route button. When activated, incoming MIDI notes are routed to the currently selected sound independent of the received MIDI channel. Other sounds on the same MIDI channel are layered. When deactivated, the MIDI channel of the incoming notes is evaluated and the respective sounds are played (previous versions of Stroke Machine decided automatically if incoming MIDI notes should be routed to the selected part or not depending on the MIDI input port).
• Added Internal/External Sequencer button. When using Stroke Machine with Inter-App Audio or AudioBus, you can now select if you want to continue using the internal sequencer or the sequencer of the host app.
• Added MIDI Learn. Tap the CC button to show the MIDI Learn view. Tap on any of the lime green edit buttons to arm MIDI Learn and move a dial or slider that emits MIDI Control Change messages on your hardware controller. The MIDI Control Change message is immediately assigned to this particular parameter. The MIDI channel is learned as well, so you can assign a MIDI Control Change message on MIDI channel 5 to a sound receiving notes on MIDI channel 4. Assigning a particular MIDI Control Change message to a different parameter removes the previous assignment. To remove an assignment manually, double-tap the respective MIDI Learn button. The learned MIDI Control Change messages are saved with the Kit. Please note that some MIDI Control Change messages are excluded, those are Bank Select MSB (#0), Modulation Wheel (#1), Channel Volume (#7), Pan (#10), Expression (#11), Bank Select LSB (#32), Sustain Pedal (#64) and the Mode Switches (#120 to #127). They are reserved for future use.
• Added MIDI Program Change reception. Upon receiving a MIDI Program Change message, Stroke Machine loads the Quick Access Pattern with the respective number.
• Changed Master Volume to only control the volume of Stroke Machine rather than the overall iPad volume. This way it doesn't affect other IAA or AudioBus app.
• Added Clear Pattern button in Kit view. Tapping it clears the pattern notes while keeping the sounds and other settings.
• Added LFO phase beat sync. Activate Clock and Mono and set the Startphase to any value except random (leftmost slider position) to get an LFO cycling which is hard-synced to the beat rather than to the moment when a note is played. The former behaviour is still available when Mono is switched off.
• Fixed crash when tapping Next or Previous Kit while in topmost library folder.
• Fixed crash with Share Kit/Sound on iOS 6.
• Fixed crash when editing notes while recording.
• Fixed freeze when an interruption occured such as an incoming Skype call.
• Fixed an issue with soloed parts when loading a kit.
• Fixed possible double playback of notes on first step when syncing to MIDI Clock.
• Fixed LFO rate exceeding valid bounds."

Down, Down, Down, Marvelous

Published on Aug 20, 2014 John L Rice

"I was messing around with running the great organ sound from a Yamaha TX81Z through a Strymon Mobius to make it sound twice as great and I ended up adding a modular sequence bass line, recording a bit of it and then throwing some Cory Friesenhan vocal loops on it."

Modded PPG WAVE 2.2 SYNTHESIZER

There appears to be eight switches followed by four on the upper right of the front panel (see the second pic). Anyone have any idea what the mods might be for?  The PPG Wave 2.2 was eight voice polyphonic.  The Wave 2.3 added multitimbral capability. The screen reads "PPG-WAVE 2.2 V4". According to the listing this was owned by a legendary Motown producer. There is currently no mention on who that might be or what the mods are.

Check out this post for some PPG Wave differences, and of course the excellent PPG Webpages.

See the PPG channel label here on MATRIXSYNTH for "Everything PPG" including videos, audio demos, previous PPGs for sale and of course, plenty of pics.
