Midi Echo AU vs EchoSketch

AUv3 Midi Fx - Midi Echo online manual here: http:/amssoftware.org/manual/MidiEchoManual.pdf Note : AUv3 midi apps need a compatible host (AUM,Audiobus 3, Cubasis, BM3 etc). So what is a midi echo? It is similar to the audio echo effect where copies of the original audio are repeated at regular time intervals but with some form of change (e.g. quieter). But unlike audio, midi is digital in nature (low resolution 8 bit mostly) and focused around the midi note on & off message used to control synths etc. This app acts on midi note-on independently from the note-off but when the note – off appears it echoes the release of the note-on in the same way the note-on was echoed (pitch interval etc) even if the UI controls have changed. UI Controls exist to allow you to: * Select the type of echo (fixed, ping pong, taper) * Vary the number of echoes (from 0 to 20) * Make echoes quieter by reducing the midi velocity * Define the pitch interval (semitone) of all successive echoes * Select the delay time between echoes either tempo sync or in mSec * Define the delay type (fixed, tempo, random 50, random 20) * Set the midi channel of echoes (1-16) so that other synths can select the echo only * Disable individual echoes - to allow you to play chords with a small or 0 delay * Set Midi thru to keep/remove the original note messages * Panic button to quickly turn off all notes * Setup control automation as all controls are AU Parameters

EchoSketch turns delay and reverb into a live, playable instrument. Shape your sound in real time using a responsive X/Y performance surface designed for intuitive touch expression. At its core are four great-sounding delays: digital, analog, ping-pong, and reverse. The range for each parameter and the XY axes direction can be set independently, allowing you to easily morph between sounds. It works as an Audio Unit plugin or standalone — iOS or Mac. Comprehensive Delays • Digital (patterned after a legendary '80s rack delay), Analog (warm, with tape-style pitch glide), Reverse, and Left/Right Ping-Pong • Delay times can sync to tempo or be set in milliseconds • Feedback features delay-dependent tone shaping — bright for short delays and darker for long ones Convolution Reverb • Stereo or mono Spring, Plate, and Hall • Reverb path is separate from the delay (same as vintage tape echo units), so repeats don’t get washed out Modulation and Filter • Analog-style modulation for chorused, warbly pitch echoes • Tone control — darken or brighten delays, with a center detent for flat Designed for Hands-On Performance • HOLD / LIFT — leave the XY cursor in place, or touch the pad for momentary delay sounds • FREEZE — set the current feedback into an infinite loop and play over it • MOTION — record a gesture on the XY pad and loop it Presets and More • Presets are transferable between hosts • Two looks — light "Trail" and dark "Glow" • Works standalone with live audio or as an AUv3 plugin • Universal — iPad/iPhone also gets you the Mac version — one purchase • Mac: after installing, open EchoSketch once to use it as a plugin in your DAW • Works in AUM, AudioBus, GarageBand, Logic, and other AUv3 hosts
