The update of Jan 6th 2024 to Motto Akemie iPad version (AUv3, Busy Circuits / ALM) fixes my main gripe with the app, so I am very pleased about that. This super short video explains what was fixed and demos it. Only a very short one today, as I already did a detailed spoken walkthrough on the app (link below), plus I have a really major sinus infection and can currently only really hear from one ear!) This is my main walkthrough on Motto Akemie: ruclips.net/video/9hqu-F0WyJA/видео.html I mentioned Motto Akemie as a runner-up in my Best iPad apps of 2024 video: ruclips.net/video/hStsYA4LsEI/видео.html My Patreon: patreon.com/Gavinski
Awesome! I really enjoy this Ive finally gotten around to playing with it more and this is great news. Keep doing what you are doing. You are appreciated.
Cool. I have used the pc version as a demo. While I liked the overall approach and the sound, when I tried to tune the sequence to a chord or scale it would go all over the place. Does controlling it via midi notes to set a pitch for each lane work now? I remember that was stuffed as well. As it was, I sent it through a few resonators and even Zinaptiq Pitchmap. While that yielded some great results, it was obviously far from ideal as a way of using it. It's a heavily tonal drum synth, so not having any way of tuning it accurately or predictably worked against it in terms of any practical everyday useage.However, if they've got those aspects of it working then I'll pick it up.
Hi, no other changes have been made, since I did my my main vid, apart from what I highlighted here. I think it's pretty usable now, best you hit them up directly if you have requests, cheers!
great improvement, but I'd like to see a few more changes before I can wholeheartedly allow it on my list. Especially the MIDI functionality restriction (only addressable for track/voice 1) for the AUv3 version seems odd. Just because it looks like a deliberately built in limitation, not technically explainable.
That's a technical problem they're trying to fix (Desktop version does it, I've spoken with the devs, they want to add it but there's some problem, they'll try to fix it). It's a pity, but the workaround is to just use a few instances of the app.
So, they still don't allow to type in needed value (like 0.12 or 0.45, or 440 or something), but now you can do incremental steps for making changes? Well, still seems better than before, thanks.
I didn't see any way to enter note values by typing. It sounds to me like they have done two things: 1. Decreased the sensitivity so that you can make small changes more accurately 2. Quantised the changes so that a smaller number of frequencies are available to be dialed in. I'm not sure about the latter, but it sounds that way to my ears.
@@GavinskisTutorials by your video I thought they change it so you now tap it constantly e.g. each new tap changes it... but, instead, as you say, it's still more about tryiing to move position? Anyway, glad to see some change, agree
@kurisuchiinathecrocodile333 it’s not about tapping to change, no - it’s the same as before but it is just easier to make small adjustments. Before even if you tried to make small adjustments, the adjustments were often large and very unpredictable

Cheers Kenny, yes, this is a big usability improvement!
Cool. I always appreciate a receptive dev, especially at the early stages of a release. Cheers, Gav! (Sinus infections - ugh. Poor you!)
Thnx Greg, I was impressed from the get-go how receptive the person I dealt with from Busy Circuits was to my suggestions, kudos to him
This is great, love this app. Thanks Gav!
Cheers Michael, yes, this will be getting more use from me now!
Wish you a fast recovery!
Thank you, man I get so paranoid when my ears are involved
Gavinski doing Gavinski things ❤
Can't but 🤣👍
Just tried this, much better now! Hope you‘re back to „full stereo“ soon!
Oh god, I hope so! And I hope the other ear doesn't get blocked too, ughhh

@@GavinskisTutorials i see, thanks. so would you say that Motto Akemie now really deserves the spotlight of one of the coolest releases of the late?
@kurisuchiinathecrocodile333 i would say that, definitely
did they add undo/redo?
Unfortunately not, that was my second main gripe, let's see if it gets that
Does it have multiout?
No, would be handy, maybe you could request it from the devs
@@GavinskisTutorials Will do!
done
@Lex_Juno fingers crossed!
