Draw Your Own Music On An iPad

fluXpad is the first sample sequencer that fully functions by simply drawing the sounds   07-Sep-16

MoMinstruments GbR has launched fluXpad, developed by Mouse on Mars and Jan Trützschler, which they say is the first sample sequencer that fully functions by simply drawing the sounds. They tell us that in fluXpad it's super simple to record your own sounds, to create different pattern and to jam with them.

A spokesperson said, "fluXpad is a sample based groovebox/workstation with a highly original sequencer, where you 'draw' your music, which leads to completely different results, when compared to a traditional sequencer. The y-axis of your canvas controls pitch, while the x-axis controls the sustain of your notes. Sounds familiar, but drawing on a canvas without any grid is a totally new experience. Of course it is possible to quantize your notes, or you can limit your note range to major or minor scales."

Features:

• 6 melody sequencers where you paint your melodies based on a sample of your choice
• 1 percussion/drum sequencer where you paint/tap your groove made of 7 samples of your choice
• record mode: either paint your sequence (on the top) or tap your notes (at the bottom)
• each sound has it's own sampler settings with unique envelope, loop and start settings
