'Abstract Clock Tracks' is an app that creates unique, abstract chord progressions by simply pressing a button. The app also generates riffs and beats via preprogrammed rhythmic patterns. Backing tracks are then created and can be used to work on soloing/improvising, write melodies, compose, or whatever you like. The app creates progressions consisting of 8 note groups made up of 3 notes each using all 12 musical notes. Select measures of 4/4 at 133bpm, 3/4 at 100 bpm, or 5/4 at 166bpm. Each time signature/tempo has 7 different drum beats to choose from, and a click track. You can also create a progression from scratch, depending on what tonalities you want to hear and work with. To get a better idea of how to use the app, watch the tutorial at www.ronjarzombek.com/apptutorials.html So if you're just tired of using the same old progressions that you've heard before and are looking for some new and creative progressions to work with, or just want to brush up on your knowledge of theory, and what scales work over certain sets of notes, this might be the app for you!... ronjarzombek.com ronjarzombek.com/ACT.html ronjarzombek.com/rjapps.html

TestFlight Demo : https://testflight.apple.com/join/Iz8Bb3GK The JAX ONE series is our new collection of 3D modelled audio units (AUV3 app extensions), available across all Apple Silicon platforms and devices. The user interface is based on Apples performant 3D frameworks and freely scaleble on all devices. You can even rotate and move the environment with common touch gestures. JAX One Delay Extended is a specific delay processor with independent lines for left and right channel. The delay time can be adjusted to be ultra short, generating comb filter like effects this way. It is made for easy usage, realtime automation and MIDI control. We extended this unit with useful connections to a specialized VCA and a Limiter. Both extension modules are connected to the processed part of the signal. A mix parameter will adjust the dry/wet relation to the taste.

Please note, that AudioUnits (AUv3) require a supporting host application to perform. The host must support MIDI enabled audio effects.
