StepPolyArp for iPad controlling an Oberheim FVS

StepPolyArp for iPad controlling an Oberheim FVS from Logan Mannstrane on Vimeo.

follow-up to this post where you'll find the specs.
"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


VJFranzK | October 12, 2010

"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.)"

Saturday Night Villain - Red Flags

via Scott Metzger:
[Read the long version and check out the track here:
http://www.saturdaynightvillain.com]
"The short version of the story: I went on a second date with this girl I was really starting to like. Little did I know that she would end up running off with another guy that night! I painfully watched in shock and disbelief as they left this Hollywood club together, hand in hand. In the following days, both parties proceeded to bombard me with apologies via myspace and text messages. Armed with all this great content, I converted their pleas to synthesized speech, and the song Red Flags was born. What you hear is what they said (with actual testimony from club witnesses and some phallic references thrown in for good measure).
