Pas de canal MIDI en AUV3

Pouvoir utiliser l’app comme extension AuV3 est super utile, mais ne pas pouvoir changer le canal MIDI comme dans la version standalone est totalement bloquant pour l’utiliser dans un sequenceur moderne comme Koala par exemple (la reception MIDI par defaut est ‘omni’, la forcer sur le Canal MIDI 10 - communément utilisé pour les drumbox - serait un minimum).

DO NOT BUY UNTIL UPDATED

You will know when to buy again based on the most recent time it’s been updated

Until this (it is currently May 11th 2026) do not purchase

It’s a good plugin for the most part other than that

DOESNT EXPORT MIDI

Was extremely disappointed to find you have no way of actually exporting these drums in to a place like Logic. Fun to mess around with but not practical for getting the drum loops anywhere useful but your phone
