mKer vs ddtctmcc

*** Note *** Although mKer can run as a stand-alone app, the recommended way to use it is as an AUv3 plugin from inside a suitable AU Host app that supports MIDI Processors such as AUM, Audiobus, Cubasis etc. Please also note that mKer is a MIDI app/plugin. That means that it does not produce sound itself - it needs to be connected to an audio source that can receive MIDI. mKer is a versatile, multi-output MIDI step sequencer with an extensive range of features. These include: - 8 MIDI outputs - 64 Patterns - 16 Lanes (aka tracks) per Pattern - Independent number of Steps (1-32) and Step Size (1/64-256 beats) per Lane per Pattern - Every step can play either a single note, an interval (2 notes) or a chord (3 or 4 notes) - Lane Step parameters: Play Cycles, Skip Cycles, Play Offset Cycles, Pitch, Velocity, Probability, Offset (can be used for ‘swing’ like effects), Repeat (rachet) and Gate - A flexible Editor that includes a step entry keyboard, parameter sliders and a variety of options and utilities designed for to make the workflow intuitive and fast - 32 Clips with 1-8 Steps per Clip, 1-128 repeats per step (every clip step has one pattern) - 3 Play Modes: Pattern, Clip, Sequence (all Clips) - A Performance tab with 10 fully assignable MIDI sliders, a 12-snapshot bank and morphing function between the snapshots... - MIDI step input and real-time recording - 12-track beat generator with six genres, density, intensity and GM beat mapping ... and more!

ddtctmcc "2D Touch Control To MIDI Control Change" This is a touch control app that is designed to work with touch gestures and output MIDI Control Change messages. This app is available as standalone version that can run in background and as an AUv3. It features basic features: - 2D Touch Area where you can set 3 MIDI values (X, Y and Touch On / Off) that will be sent as MIDI CC messages - Two gesture recording modes: "Loop" and "Once": -- In "Loop" mode the gesture is immediately repeated infinitely. You can restart it and change the direction of gesture loop -- In "Once" mode the gesture is recorded silently and only played back later when "trigger" or "+pause" buttons are pressed. ... and some important extras: - Scene support. You can store all settings in a "scene" and switch between them. There is an option to set a transition time between scenes to morph loops. - Extended timing support. Start/stop and speed of the loop can also be recorded and played back. The recorded gesture loop can follow the host tempo when running in plugin mode. - Layers. Each instance of the app supports multiple output settings; scene switch is synchronised across all layers.
