Maxi-Patch_AO/AV 3.7.6: On-the-fly loops and cue points
Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 10:01 pm
Maxi-Patch_AO/AV 3.7.6 for OSX and Windoom is now ready for registered Fan Club members to download. The main new features of this new version include on-the-fly loop and cue point creation and modification, saving and restoring of loop and cue points, and MIDI jog wheel support.
Whereas the previous version of Maxi-Patch_AO/AV required the user to set loop and cue points graphically using the mouse and keyboard, Maxi-Patch_AO/AV 3.7.6 allows on-the-fly loop and cue point creation using MIDI control, or the mouse and keyboard. Map a sequential range of MIDI notes to the loop and cue points, and you can play your loops and cue points using a MIDI keyboard, just like a sampler! Map other notes to the loop modification functions (double, halve, forward shift, backward shift) and you have the ability to create interesting stutter effects, all while simultaneously being able to scratch the sounds using your turntable and your Ms Pinky vinyl!
And did we mention MIDI jog wheel control? With the new version, in addition to scratching with your turntable and Ms Pinky vinyl, you have the option of using a MIDI jog wheel. While the MIDI jog wheel will never give you the same precision for scratching as the vinyl will, it may be a useful alternative for some users.
Hope you like it!
