## What is p10trancer?

p10trancer is an iPad-native live video instrument for VJs and visual artists, inspired by the rich lineage of video mixers and samplers. Nine pads in a 3×3
  grid, two output channels, a master fader, and effects you dial in by feel. Every gesture is performed live — there is no timeline, no track view, no beat grid. 
  Plug in, hit a pad, see what happens.                     

  WHAT'S INSIDE                                                                                                                                                    
                                          
  • Nine independent video pads. Each pad can hold a video file, a still image, the iPad's front or back camera, a USB-C UVC camera (HDMI capture box, webcam), the
   keyer's composite output, or the master mix as a feedback source.                                                                                               
  
  • Two output channels with five master-mixer transitions: blur crossfade, linear swipe, star swipe, chroma key, luma key. A position fader sweeps between        
  channels.                                                 
                                                                                                                                                                   
  • A six-effect rack on every pad: blur, internal feedback, chroma distortion, YUV phaser, luma phaser, edge enhance. Effects are bypassed by default — engage    
  what you need.                          
                                                                                                                                                                   
  • Two independent pad-to-pad keyers, each with chroma or luma keying, threshold and softness. Keyers can chain (one keyer's foreground sources from another      
  keyer) and self-feedback.               
                                                                                                                                                                   
  • A simulated composite-NTSC pipeline. Frames are encoded into a simulated composite waveform with 4× horizontal oversampling, glitch effects mutate the encoded 
  composite, and the result is decoded back. Chroma boost, HSync wobble, subcarrier drift, Y/C delay, dropouts, banded noise — every artifact is the kind of thing
  a real analog video processor produces, because it's produced by the same kind of operations.                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                   
  • HDMI external display through a DP-Alt-Mode USB-C dongle, switchable between HD 720p and NTSC 4:3.
                                                                                                                                                                   
  • Per-pad audio mixed through AVAudioEngine. Audio follows whichever channel its pad is routed to. Master output captures to MP4.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 2.0.2 — 2026-06-06

This update is mostly bug fixes and improvements, plus a few new toys.

Improvements:

• Reworked output: choose 4:3 or 16:9 with per-aspect resolution options, and scale each pad with zoom-to-fill or letterbox. Cameras now use the full sensor frame.
• Color grade and the analog look are now a single, simpler set of output FX.
• New instruments: an ACIDBASS bass synth (with kick-to-bass sidechain ducking) and a 14-engine MULTIPLATES macro synth, plus a bigger 46-wave bank for WAVETABLE.
• Play instruments live over MIDI, and tweak the feedback wet/dry mix.

Fixes:

• Recordings now fill the whole frame at every output size.
• Fixed instrument tempo drifting under load and instrument knobs that wouldn't drag.
• Instrument patches and patterns now save and reload with your sessions.

### 2.0.1 — 2026-05-23

Bug fixes and refinements:

• Per-pad mute, volume, and VU now work on instrument pads (previously stuck even though audio was audible).
• 'End Session?' alert no longer pops up on cold launch.
• FX pad thumbnails (keyer / feedback) render smoothly — no more jitter or first-frame slash artifact on launch.

New and improved:

• X/Y joystick macro — a two-axis assignable control mapped to any pair of LFO targets.
• Per-pad letterbox / fill toggle so each source fits the pad the way you want.
• HD output post-processing with new side-strip FX panels.
• Per-pad VU meter and volume slider; mini VU on camera and mic pads.
• Per-pad gear menu + a global settings sheet (thumbnail quality, NTSC, MIDI).
• In-app share for live clips; Documents / UserVideos exposed via the Files app.

### 2.0.0 — 2026-05-20

No release notes.
