The RK-601 can convert tempo from gate pulses into MIDI clock so you can synchronise your music software to devices using a simple metronome output. In the RK-601 companion app you can set clock dividers, button response and MIDI start/stop message behaviour. The RK601 needs the Apple CCK on iOS devices with lighting connectors.

About

shortReverse II

Read full description

Concept: β€œshortReverse II” is the advanced version of β€œshortReverse” which was previously released. The second has the same functionality as the first but resolves professional needs, that is, the problem of restricted buffer size (2^N). Now the user can freely adjust the buffer size from 256 to 65536 (in 1 sample unit). Usage: The user can reverse an incoming audio signal in real-time only while pushing the button. "buffer size" slider is text-editable by clicking. Note: Button automation in DAW is not supported. System Requirements: AUv3 host stereo output: just plug headphone/mic or audio interface.
