1.2

May 22, 2017

We keep listening to your feedback and we've made a new version that contains a few of your requests, such as: - You can now send MIDI via Bluetooth Low Energy to any iOS or Mac devices. (For iOS devices this means at least iOS 8 and for Macs it means at least Yosemite) - You can transpose the octave for a greater range of playback. Easily visualize which octave you're in betwen our -3 to 3 range. - You can now visualise rests in "Target Mode". We also added a nice new way to open or close all the steps. Just drag your finger up or down the "Gate Modes" button. This lets you work even faster when changing sequences live. And last but not least we solved some bugs that were causing a few crashes here and there. Hope you enjoy it, and keep the feedback coming!

Reviews of STEPS

  • No built in little sound

    Would be great for in the go music making. What a shame. All I need is a sine wave or square going through a vca. Please update
  • Great app, just one bug

    I think this app is great and it will do just what I need it to which is sending some midi notes over Bluetooth midi to control a DMX lighting controller from my iPad. But I seem unable to send a midi note of C-2, no matter what I do. In my DMX controller midi note 0 corresponds to note C-2. I can send C#-2 but when I pull the octave slider all the way down and pull the note for any of the 8 steps all the way down it will note send the C-2 note. Bump them up one note and they send C#-2. I can work around that but would be nice for that to work. Thanks!
  • Simple, Novel Sequencer

    The thing I wish I had known before I bought it: Steps is a single, 8-note sequencer. Each note can repeat up to 8 times, but that’s not the same thing as a 64-note sequencer.

    That said, it’s nice UI putting together a melodic line on a phone. The dials make an interesting, if not particularly earth-shattering, sequencer interface. Build is solid, got it working with Animoog on Audiobus in just a few minutes.
