Description of mKer

*** Note *** Although mKer can run as a stand-alone app, the recommended way to use it is as an AUv3 plugin from inside a suitable AU Host app that supports MIDI Processors such as AUM, Audiobus, Cubasis etc. Please also note that mKer is a MIDI app/plugin. That means that it does not produce sound itself - it needs to be connected to an audio source that can receive MIDI. mKer is a versatile, multi-output MIDI step sequencer with an extensive range of features. These include: - 8 MIDI outputs - 64 Patterns - 16 Lanes (aka tracks) per Pattern - Independent number of Steps (1-32) and Step Size (1/64-256 beats) per Lane per Pattern - Every step can play either a single note, an interval (2 notes) or a chord (3 or 4 notes) - Lane Step parameters: Play Cycles, Skip Cycles, Play Offset Cycles, Pitch, Velocity, Probability, Offset (can be used for ‘swing’ like effects) and Gate - A flexible Editor that includes a step entry keyboard, parameter sliders and a variety of options and utilities designed for to make the workflow intuitive and fast - 32 Clips with 1-8 Steps per Clip, 1-128 repeats per step (every clip step has one pattern) - 3 Play Modes: Pattern, Clip, Sequence (all Clips) - A Performance tab with 10 fully assignable MIDI sliders, a 12-snapshot bank and morphing function between the snapshots... - MIDI step input ... and more!

Reviews of mKer

  • Confusing Interface

    This app could be very good but in it’s current state it’s not. The included help manual is no help at all because the UI it depicts and the actual UI are completely different. Good luck trying to understand intuitively as things you think the various buttons should do don’t do at all, or do something unexpected. I consider this app broken for now until the dev does a better job of defining it’s functions and updating the user manual.
  • Quirky but actually fun

    Once you put up with some UI oddities, the interface is surprisingly good helping to find and work out ideas. Editing the lanes for example is easy using an assortment of buttons in the lower half. You don’t have to reach across the screen all the time. One bigger caveat is that the apps parameters don’t seem to be exposed. So you cannot use MIDI controllers and effects to control mKer itself.

  • Nice but midi keyboard issue

    Cannot input to cells using external keyboard or Aum keyboard.
    Thus, it takes too long to input notes using Mker keyboard.

    Please issue update so we can use Aum keyboard or any other keyboard for inputting notes.

    Thank you

    Developer Response

    Hello, thank you for your feedback. MIDI input (step input as well as pattern/clip switching) is a planned feature and we hope to make it available in one of the coming releases this year. You are always welcome to submit any additional feedback via the in-app contact form or at hello(at)axart(dot)net  With Kind Regards,  Achillefs  axart software
