This video, via RinghausenMusic, demonstrates how to do Tangerine Dream style ‘ratchet’ sequencing on an iPad.
‘Ratchet’ sequencing, or ‘ratcheting’, is a step sequencing technique where notes in a sequence, normally triggered once per step, are triggered multiple times per step to add rhythmic variety and interest.
ST-S01 can control any background MIDI enabled App on the iPad, as well as external MIDI keyboards.
In this demo, the iPad app StepSequencer ST-S01 is used to control a PPG 1002 synthesizer, and is accompanied with PPG Phonem.
riveting?
thx for the hint. bought it.
I might too
strange how some apps don’t show all the neat tricks
then again there are several that don’t even have a basic demo video or sound
does it strip tho
No, it doesn’t. That’s happens at a strip club. I’m sure you know them well.
i frequent only those that play Tangerine Dream in the background
can’t say i’ve seen much of that synth. its really nice, and of course, wolfgang palm is awesome. gonna give an iPad sequencer a try.
This is a great app- I love how you can have two rows of different sequences, great for polyphonic synths. I notified the developer that when sending inter-app MIDI you get stuck notes (I’m using this with Arturia’s iMini) if you switch apps during a sequence in iOS10. The developer got right back to me and said they would look into it. Otherwise this is a really good emulation of an old school step sequencer.
