A 6 channel drum synthesiser & sequencer for creating beats, electro rhythms or just wacky drum synth blips.

New version 3.6
Old version 3.1
Release Notes **** Big update with lots of new great useful features!**** (3.0 broke and 3.1 had a bug in the switch buttons (SORRY ABOUT THAT), so this is the fixed version): *. Added parameter set for almost all knobs per step (manually or while sequence is playing) Press P-Set to enable (flashing) Double tap P-Set to enter erase mode. Turning any dial will either set / lock that parameter to the currently selected or playing step on current track; or erase all parameter sets to all steps on current track. Colour of dial ring will be red when there is an active parameter on current step. You can clear all parameter sets for all active dials on the whole sequence using CLR params (in Edit Sequence). *. Added 3 bars for total of 4 bars and 64 steps per track . The bar the track is currently playing within will be shown across the top row step LEDs. Choosing Bar 1-4 in Edit Step area, selects which bar to enter steps into. *. Modified and reduced the gate time so if Gate mode on VCA is enabled, it's shorter and more noticeable for really short pulses of sounds. *. iPad UI mode. If using iPad, you can choose to either use the new UI layout that removes sub menus and allows you to access more knobs at the same time for more hands-on control. *. Changed Expand function so that it automatically extends length of track to 64 steps. This makes it easier to convert 4/16/32 steps to repeat to the rest of the bars so you can make subtle changes to the other bars, making your beats less repetitive. Example usage will be to make a 16 step beat, press Expand, select bars to edit beats. *. Added a Beat click slaved to track 1. When ever a step is played on track 1, you can also have an extra drum attack to boost the overall drum impact. Just press the "Beat on 1" button *. Updated AudioBus SDK to latest version. *. Updated Ableton Link to latest version including new slave start/stop. *. Updated step buttons to move away from the 909 look and more of a stylish 808 look. *. Updated the look, hopefully you will agree its much nicer. *. Updated core code. *. Minor improvement to BPM when not using Link. Its still preferable to enable Link even if not syncing to other apps

Release Notes Thank you. You're AWESOME! We're constantly upgrading D1: • App has been re-engineered to allow AUv3 in iPadOS/iOS 13 This is still a new feature, we are working to improve it! • Inter-app Audio (IAA) has been improved! • Misc bug fixes & upgrades • NOTE: We are working on adding AUv3 mixdown support for NanoStudio 2, GarageBand, and Cubasis (for now use AUv3 Compatibility mode in the mixdown settings in Cubasis) • AudioKit apps will keep improving. We're working hard to make them better for you! NOTES * When freezing in Cubasis, if nothing appears in the audio track, try setting Cubasis to AUv3 compatibly mode * D1 is rather robust. It's a beast of a synth. * We've re-engineered and optimized it so you can run 2, 3 or more instances in one project! Of course, if you go above 3 instances running at once, it may become unstable. * AUv3 also handles MIDI better. Use your favorite iOS host like AUM to route MIDI to different instances * AUv3 mode defaults to CPU efficient mode on, which means you don't see the knob animation on LFOs. BTW, this makes it easier to set LFO targets. This can be changed in the "Settings" button to the upper left of the keyboard * There's a new keyboard hide/show icon that appears at the top of the AUv3 mode to make it easier to show/hide bottom panels in AUv3 mode * We can't wait to hear the music you make with D1 as an AUv3 * The app will just get better & better - stay tuned! Email bugs, music, & friendly notes to: hello@audiokitpro.com We're working hard to improve the app for you! Stay tuned!

Release Notes IMPROVED: 'Free Mode' - It took us a while, but we finally figured out how we could change it to allow *10 minutes* of mix editing play time (massively up from the previous 1 minute timeout!) and a full 10 mins of Flow/Album play time; the upshot is that many who use Free Mode may now no longer see a Timeout pop-up - Yay! IMPROVED: Implemented multitasking support for iOS / iPad (Split View / Slide Over); for Apple guidance on how to use multitasking see: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207582 IMPROVED: In TTM Cell, make the default action “Random Words” (was: Shuffle Words) IMPROVED: Added option to set Video Blob Colour to either None, Red, Green, Blue FIXED: The app could crash when previewing an item and adding it to a cell FIXED: More bugs and improved stability P.S. Enjoying Wotja? Please help by updating your rating and review - it really helps!

This application is simply a container for the Audio Unit and also serves as the documentation for the AU. PhaseDelayArray is a bit of a strange effect. O.K, so, what is it? PhaseDelayArray has three effect units chained together in an interesting configuration, and one of these units is just a little bit twisted.
