Connections in this video:
KeyStep MIDI OUT --- 60Knobs MIDI IN
60Knobs MIDI OUT --- MIDI/Audio to USB Interface
Interface --- Apple USB Camera Connection Kit
CCK --- iPad

The 60Knobs merges the MIDI data form the KeyStep with its own and sends everything to the iPad's AUM app via the MIDI-to-USB interface.

If your interface also does audio-to-USB, like my Zoom U-24, then you can also feed audio in and out of the iPad, mixing it with effects and virtual instruments.

Apps used in this video:
- Kymatica AUM
- BeepStreet Sunrizer
- Holderness Madia Crystalline
- Bram Bos Kosmonaut"

Ripplemaker - Testing FM

Published on Jun 5, 2017 Bram Bos

"Fooling around with my upcoming semi-modular app Ripplemaker. This video shows a lot of modulations, including FM (using the slope circuit as a secondary oscillator)."

RippleKrell (test 1)

Published on May 12, 2017 Bram Bos

"Testing my new work in progress: Ripplemaker

A modular 'West-Coast synthesis' playground, inspired by synths such as the 0-Coast, Phenol and the Kastle.

Following the experimental synthesis philosophy of people like Buchla and Serge, west-coast synthesis offers a very different approach from the traditional subtractive methods of Moog synths. It's much more about experimenting with additive timbres (hence the absence of a conventional filter) and the manipulation of CV signals.

This video shows a typical generative patch concept called 'Krell' (inspired by the soundtrack of the movie 'Forbidden Planet' 'composed' by Louis Barron). It's self-generating, so no sequencers or triggers are used here. But obviously Ripplemaker will be fully AUv3 compatible so you can do slightly more conventional/musical patches with it ;-)

Recorded in AUM with AUFX:SPACE reverb plugin."

Bram Bos Troublemaker for iOS Released

Above are two demo videos of Bram BosTroublemaker, one from the soundtestroom and one from iPadLoops

You can find the official teaser video for Troublemaker here.

Details via iTunes:
Troublemaker - Bram Bos

"Note: Troublemaker requires iPad 4/Mini 2/iPhone 5S/iPod Touch 6 or higher

Introducing Troublemaker: this is not a 303

The legendary TB-303 has magical properties; it is filled to the brim with analog shimmer. Its output jack is a gateway to a parallel universe and when you twiddle the filter knobs an army of highly trained pixies chisel the square waves from freshly harvested unicorn souls. So if you want a TB-303, you should buy a TB-303. But if you're after *that sound* Troublemaker will give you everything you need in spades.

Troublemaker sports a carefully crafted diode filter emulation and among the available oscillators are the typical raspy, nasal sawtooth and rubbery squarewave with its oddball shape and shifting pulsewidth.

It also has the wow.

Troublemaker is fully Audio Unit (AUv3) compatible, so you can go wild running multiple instances in your favorite DAWs.

It also has:
- Ableton Link synchronization,
- MIDI CC mapping,
- Core Midi, Virtual Midi, Bluetooth Midi input,
- Audiobus support
- Exports MID and WAV files from the standalone sequencer

And unlike the TB-303, it can actually sound like a bass guitar ;-)"

Introducing Phasemaker 6-Operator FM Synth on iOS

iTunes: Phasemaker - Bram Bos

"The first 6-Operator FM Synth on iOS, building on the legacy of the classic synthesizers that defined the digital era of the 1980s.

It also happens to be the first FM Audio Unit instrument (AUv3), offering tight integration in many leading mobile DAWs, such as Auria, Garageband, Cubasis, Modstep and AUM.

(Note: there is a known bug in the current version of Garageband which may cause compatibility issues with some AU plugins).

Frequency Modulation brings rich timbres and dynamic evolving sounds full of personality which are impossible to create with analog modelling. The 6-Operator architecture allows for lively multi-layered sounds with lots of expression and playability.

Phasemaker's characteristic FM sound will add classic digital character to your mobile sonic arsenal which no other analog synth can bring.

System requirements: iPad 4+, iPad Mini 2+, iOS 9 or higher

- Audio Unit v3 compatible
- CoreMidi compatible standalone mode (with background audio)
- Custom preset management; user presets available across AU hosts
- Dozens of factory presets
- 42 FM Algorithms (including all 32 DX7 layouts)
- 12 Oscillators, including the 8 original TX81z waveforms
- All 106 parameters can be automated using MIDI CC and AU Parameters
- Vintage sounding chorus and reverb effects for classic ambiance"

"Following up on the success of Ruismaker, here's her crazy twin-sister, designed for people who want to design their own percussion sounds from scratch.

Ruismaker FM's flexible synthesis engine lets you create anything from snaredrums, kickdrums and spacy toms to weird and unconventional percussive sounds and effects.

- Use Ruismaker FM's flexible FM synth engine to create thousands of sounds
- Comes with loads of factory preset sounds as examples
- Does not use any samples; all sounds are synthesized in realtime, on the fly

- Fully MIDI controllable using MIDI CC
