About

Rope

Features
Read full description

!!! ATTENTION !!! Rope doesn't work standalone and in Garage Band. It requires "AUM" (AUv3 host app) to launch the Rope app and a DC‑coupled audio interface (for example, Expert Sleepers ES‑8) to output CV to your Eurorack modular system. Regular audio-interfaces are AC-coupled and can't output CV signals. Rope is a flexible MIDI to CV converter that lets you control your modular synth using any source of MIDI signal: another AU extension e.g. a sequencer or hardware MIDI interface or controller. ​ With Rope, you can quickly select a source MIDI channel and map events as: - Gate - Pitch - Velocity - Pitch Bend - Aftertouch - CCs to 2 CV outputs (supported by AUM). By default it loads with Gate and Pitch.

Construct evolving sequences. The creative experience of using a constrained hardware system rather than the lazy freedom of just being able to “add another module”. ThreeTuring lays out everything in front of you without the need to keep going back to the manual. No menu diving, no alternative pages and easy to pick up if you haven’t used it for a few weeks or months. Having fun making music. ThreeTuring consists of a dual oscillator monosynth, a clock module for generating trigger patterns alongside a collection of generative modules encompassing a range of modular generative techniques including a turing machine, random generators, LFOs, envelope generators, a quantiser, a note accent and a set of effects modules. Pretty much every control can be modulated via the nine slot modmatrix, including the modulation settings themselves.
