revised / Very good program / 4 stars due to difficult to see but if he clears this up - 10 stars
i was running multiple instances (3) of FMR and using 3 instances of the Pianoteq demo. My machine is an iPad M1 with 16gb RAM so it shouldn’t crash on what I consider to be a light load. Although I’m using iOS Logic Pro, that can have its own issues with processing, I believe the problem was with Pianoteq. It seems that the protection on the demo versions somehow are demanding a lot of processing power as when I finally purchased the product the crashing (and distortion) was gone. I don’t know how far I can push it but running as many as 5 instances of each app causes no issues.
Not mentioned earlier the problem was cos occurring in AUM.
I’m not giving this 5 stars because the color of the app still makes it difficult for this senior to see the settings and values.
Response from developer
I'm not getting any crash reports. My first thoughts are that it may be an issue with Logic or the device running low on RAM. Feel free to email me at fuguemachinerubato@alexandernaut.com and I can try to help figure out what's going on. More color options and documentation will be worked on in the near future.
etwas entäuschend
Karamba 🧑🚀 🛸
Mit seinen vielen einstellbaren Verläufen, welche nochmal mit Automationen beeinflusst werden können, fliegt man durch Galaxiencluster benachbarter Universen.
Und dann noch für Mac verfügbar - ein Träumchen.
Etwas klein im unteren Menübereich, trotz 13er IPad - hier würde ich mir ein Fenster zum nach oben verschieben oder nen Zoom wünschen.
Danke für diese wunderbare Neuauflage❕
Needs more scale options, note bending,and better documentation
Please PLEASE add more scales …. There should be at least 30 scales and tunings to choose from
In many ways it’s a great tool that offers solutions to help create complex rhythmic phrasing / sequencing.
¿ Is there a way to bend notes ?
¿ Why is there NOT an easy / simple way to BEND notes?
Bending notes is very VERY important for expression.
Please implement that or explain how to glissando/bend pitches
The manual does not offer much information.
You can only have maximum 128 steps to a sequence !!!
Increasing that would be appreciated.

Thanks for the message, will be getting back to rubato soon 🌀
interesting but unpolished
The basic premise is interesting but there’s some major UX hurdles encountered pretty quickly.
There’s many nested menus hidden under multiple modifier buttons. Trying to save a pattern or protect has like 40 ways to easily lose all your work and one multi step process to save it. Ableton Link does not function with Ableton Live, pressing stop just resets the pattern.
Response from developer
If you're referring to the menus within the popovers, those menus are contextual for specific parameters — essentially right click menus. The main parameters are all on the main interface. Every change you make to the sequencer is automatically written to disk and accessible in the Snapshots menu. The most recent 100 changes are stored, persisted between pattern changes, app terminations, etc.. This was designed to allow you to quickly change patterns without "Are you Sure?" menus, without worrying about losing your work if you intended to save. Ableton Link does work on my end, I just tested it again to verify. Please feel free to email fuguemachinerubato@alexandernaut.com if you'd like help troubleshooting.
