Tapko Stomp vs ANALOGyKIT

Tapko Stomp is an AUv3 audio-to-MIDI trigger for live performance. It listens to your incoming audio, learns what your hits sound like, and turns them into MIDI notes or CC with velocity. It's tailored towards live loopers, but works for anyone who wants to play MIDI from any audio source: a stomp box, a guitar body, a cajón or a drum. Tapko Stomp is actively developed, with continuous refinements and new features inspired by real musicians. Built for fast setup on stage: - Insert Tapko Stomp on an audio track - Route its MIDI to your sampler or drum app - Tap Learn and play a few hits, soft to hard - Play, and only your real hits send notes Features - AUv3 effect with MIDI output - Two triggers, A and B, that each learn their own sound and send their own note or CC - Guided setup in three steps per trigger: teach it your sound, set how easily it fires, choose what it sends - Learn sets the background level, frequency range and velocity range from your own playing - Hit Match ignores sounds that don't resemble your learned hits - Ring Guard and Retrigger Guard so one hit sends one note - Ignore Sounds (Beta): teach it chords and notes that must never trigger - Low Latency mode for sharp, fast attacks - Velocity shaping per trigger: feel, floor, ceiling and boost - Send a MIDI note or CC, on any channel, per trigger - Send Test button to check your routing without a real hit - Live hit lamp with velocity readout, input meter and background level - Help on every control - AU preset support in supported hosts Great For - Live stomp and percussion triggering in a looper - Playing drum samples from a guitar body - Layering one-shots on live drum sources - Compact iOS and iPadOS live rigs Use Tapko Stomp in AUv3-compatible hosts such as AUM, Loopy Pro, Cubasis and other iOS DAWs that support AUv3 MIDI routing.

ANALOGyKIT Virtual Analog Drum Kit (AUv3) Introduction ANALOGyKIT (“analog-ee kit”) is an AUv3 virtual instrument plugin that can run standalone, or in any AUv3 compatible host such as Logic Pro, GarageBand or AUM. Please note that the standalone version does not include a built-in keyboard - you need to connect a suitable MIDI device to play the synth. Please also note that ANALOGyKIT is not a drum machine, so does not have a built-in pattern sequencer. It has been designed as a virtual drum kit / drum module controlled via MIDI, using a separate sequencer plugin or piano roll in a DAW. ANALOGyKIT currently runs on iOS (iPad & iPhone) and macOS (Intel & Silicon) and is available as a Universal Purchase from the Apple App Store. If you’re planning on using ANALOGyKIT on Mac / desktop, please ensure that your favourite DAW / host supports AUv3 (not just AU). NOTE - ANALOGyKIT uses the same synthesis engine as ANALOGyDR so you can think of ANALOGyKIT as 8 x ANALOGyDR, plus pitch-sweepable oscillators, lo-fi bit-crushing, dedicated per-voice effects and a master / mixer section. Design Overview ANALOGyKIT is an 8 voice virtual analog drum synthesizer, i.e. it does not use samples. The design is based on the sound engines in early analog drum machines for the late 1970’s and early 80’s. Each voice comprises two tuneable pitched oscillators (with sweep), two noise sources and a variable mode filter with envelope. A lo-fi bit-crushing effect can also be applied to each voice independently. All eight voices have their own dedicated tempo-sync delay and reverb with gate effect. The master output section includes an 8 channel stereo mixer and simple one-knob controls for compression, limiting and clipping. Presets ANALOGyKIT comes with factory presets for Kits and individual Drums, and user presets can be saved or loaded using the OS file system browser. New Kits can be generated automatically by combining sounds randomly from existing factory Drum and Kit presets.
