Beat making tutorial with BAM - Beat Maker & Music Maker

[@aikighost]

I had a thought... If you could add the ability for BAM to auto recognise when you load an instance of DRC or FRMS to a track and auto map "jammable" parameters like Cutoff, Res, Env Amount, ADSR Decay, Reverb Send, etc to the BAM Rack interface that would be a big win for fans of your products :)

[@ImaginandoPt]

A nice idea :) Thanks for the suggestion/feedback!

[@Made0nEarth]

Coming from Portuguese minds must be something really good! i will buy this one for sure!

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thank you very much! Get your pre-order in before Monday to save 50%!

[@Eriser]

Thank you, that sounds promising! I'm looking forward to playing with it :-) I've pre-ordered the iPad version!

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thank you for your support and feedback!

[@BenWellby]

Really impressed with this, Lucas. It’s like a portable Digitakt on steroids, while still retaining a very clear and usable UI. Instant preorder from me 🤘

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for your feedback and support! ❤️

[@BenWellby]

@@ImaginandoPt of course! If you need help with beta testing I’d be happy to help. Keep up the great work my friend 🙏

[@Taeodoestech]

We have this in Drambo already 😅

[@BenWellby]

@@Taeodoestech I’m not sure we do. I’d say Drambo is more comparable to the Octatrack. BAM looks intentionally focused. Two quite different approaches.

[@surrealchemist]

Pretty nice. This has a lot of the aspects that remind me of Korg Gadget but without being limited by their instruments. The one thing I might want is the piano roll could use some marks like the lowest/highest note to quickly see where you are in the pitch range.

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for the feedback! :) if you zoom on the piano roll you can check where you are on the pitch range, every C note is marked with the octave number.

[@diyvideojunk2066]

Tried the demo, two days later I bought it. It looks great, works well and is a good compromise between functionality and ease of use. The developers are very responsive and might invite you to beta test if you contact them. I have great hopes for this 'new kid on the block'

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for you amazing feedback. Best regards!

[@aikighost]

Nice little iOS DAW/groovebox. Definitely intertested. Reminds me a little of Nanostudio 2. But hopefully once released you guys will keep supporting it and releasing preset packs etc

[@ImaginandoPt]

This is just the beginning! :)

[@SonicVibe]

will it be a lot of IAP or updates ?@@ImaginandoPt

[@AndrewJohnClive]

Man, so happy you have developed a daw. All your apps are amazing and I know this will be too!❤❤❤

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for your amazing feedback! ☺️

[@MusicChannel-rf5zz]

Will get this sometime.

[@emmanuelsignorino]

Pre ordered. Seems very nice to use. For me, a fast and efficient piano roll is what I'm looking for.

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for your support and feedback!

[@SonicVibe]

this was dope and makes me happy about my pre order thanks for more info on the workflow

Can we get a sample slicing feature? Would be great to have a track dedicated to drum loop/sample slicing

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for the suggestion! Nice idea!

Great video on the beta learnt a few new things multi sample and shift options. Looking fwd to the big release

[@ImaginandoPt]

[@SkipHunt]

Kicka$$! :) Way cool on the multiple samples in the sampler and alternating with modulator panel

[@GregoryRiker]

Brilliant, great demo.

[@jerzboybeats9555]

This is a cool app. Love the sounds.

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks!

[@jlnprssnr]

5:27 the AUv3 panel is so empty, maybe add the option to have four/six knobs there that can be mapped to values of the plugin? Other apps like SAND Sequencer do it like that. Or an XY performance pad that controls two values!

[@ImaginandoPt]

Hi there, thanks for the suggestion!

[@kriss12loverap]

Very cool we need more high quality music software for iOS, it’s about time.

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks! Don't worry; we'll keep making it! 😉

[@Thedrumsthebass]

I cannot wait!

[@ImaginandoPt]

H Y P E ! Not too much longer now :)

[@medsyn5271]

Love it. Absolutely love it. Any chance you’ll be adding additional future libraries like the House Flavours Pack? A few Middle Eastern inspired samples and beats maybe?

[@medsyn5271]

And an acoustic flamenco Spanish inspired pack 🙃

[@ImaginandoPt]

Hi! There will be addicional future libraries you can be sure of that! ;)

[@RenatoFlorencia]

Ansioso por mais análises e vídeos e bem impressionado até aqui

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thank you for your support!

[@hollohead4077]

Very interested in this. Loved LIVKONTROL Pro and LK.. Could a Launchpad X or similar be hooked up to the iPad and kept in sync with the clip launch screen, allowing the triggering of clips from the launchpad? Good luck on the launch :)

[@ImaginandoPt]

We haven't been tesing that but the answer is yes, as the song engine is the same as in LK but with improvements under the hood.

[@sokoleski]

Gorgeous ... Love the synthesised drums... ‼ But did not see any probability parameterS yet..for continuously changing drum patterns etc. Also... it has to have some smart randomisation , for a quick 'ballpark' creation of patterns. Plotting out notes is really really boring.

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks! Probability and randomisation are both already in BAM :)

[@sokoleski]

@@ImaginandoPt THAT's the respons I wanted to hear .... looks very promising

[@rorz999]

Is there a way to use audio loops, eg breakbeats, either pitching them or time-stretching them to fit the tempo?

[@ImaginandoPt]

Hi there, not yet, but a looper is planned for the future.

[@rorz999]

​@@ImaginandoPtthanks! A looper and some way to chop samples would be a game-changer.

[@Francesco_L]

Very impressive... Can I drag and drop audio files from the Files app into BAM (Midi files too?)? I have pre-ordered the iPad version.

[@danram2381]

Really like the app 😊 but one important question : will come a AUv3 support in the near future? 🤔

[@ImaginandoPt]

AUv3 is already supported on iOS and macOS

[@danram2381]

@@ImaginandoPt sorry, i meant Inter App Audio format. My mistake

[@ImaginandoPt]

@@danram2381sorry we are betting in AUv3 support.

[@MrMallum]

Can you loop audio into it? Or is it all MIDI / sampler based?

[@ImaginandoPt]

BAM does include a built in recorder which can record internal and external sources.

[@fuko1620]

i found that lot of ipados daws dont really focus on capturing audio and live instruments in general, this video lacks this features as well. Also making odd time signatures and drum rolls are often tedious process if possible at all.

[@ImaginandoPt]

BAM has audio in engine for processing live audio input. Odd time signatures are no problem thanks to BAM's step sequencer and ability to manage clips with different lengths and time signatures.

[@tobytodelafontena]

I have two thoughts. Firstly, this DAW for iOS is undeniably cool. However, secondly, I'm a PC user with an Android device, so it was probably a mistake to pre-order this product since I already have Ableton working well. I think I misunderstood what kind of product it was.

[@ImaginandoPt]

BAM is available for desktop as well. It will be available as standalone and plugin formats.

[@sonomute]

@@ImaginandoPt will the desktop version be a plugin host though?...

[@tobytodelafontena]

@@sonomute The answer is: no! This is a different product for users on Windows/Android and users on iOS. We PC guys pay it (much) more and it has fewer possibilities, this is not really something fair. For example, I have all Imaginando products but can't use DRC inside BAM because I'm not an Apple user. Cool.

[@mikenoface]

Hello. Where can we send feedback outside of app store reviews? thanks!

[@ImaginandoPt]

Contact our website chat and ask for a discord server link

[@qwertySnowy]

Is there a stem export or ableton export?? For iPad version

[@ImaginandoPt]

Yes, you can export in several ways. Single track, single scene.

[@lextron-audio]

Hello. I'm loving BAM so far. Question. Why can't I add retriggers/ratchets to the Analogue drum module notes?

[@ImaginandoPt]

Hi there, you can use the 'Retrigger' parameter from the 'Trigger' rack device.

[@thovex64]

Is BAM can follow an external midi clock ? Is it possible to start scenes from a midi message ? Can I drive mute volume pan etc from launchcontrol xl? Thanks for all! Nice job!

[@ImaginandoPt]

BAM can use external MIDI clock yes. It's not possible to start scene from MIDI message currently. Parameter controls like volume and pan can be mapped and controlled by hardware controllers.

[@skalape]

it looks nice, preordered, will be BAM released for iphone too?

[@ImaginandoPt]

Thanks for the pre-order! We don't have any current plans to carry out the necessary refactoring of screen real estate to make BAM truly a great (and productive!) experience on iPhone sized devices. If this changes, you can be sure we'll let everyone know ;)

[@ofirr673]

Can I record an electric guitar direct into BAM ?

[@ImaginandoPt]

There is a built in recorder. Have you seen it? You can download the desktop demo at any time.

[@aleymeow3418]

Can this sequence external equipment?

[@ImaginandoPt]

Not yet but it is planned and we are working on it.

Not yet, but it will surely be possible in the future.

[@s.saint.claire.273]

Can you play in an open ended sequence of notes without having a pre determined length? Like with drambo? Deciding when to end the loop on the fly?

[@musicShji]

Hi, i have a few questions. There is a way to: 1. maximize pianoroll window? 2. add any auv3 audio effect, and automat it? 3. export whole track or stems to audio file? 4. add audio loop and time stretch it? Thanks :)

[@ImaginandoPt]

Hi there! 1. BAM has a three vertically stacked sections. The piano roll lives in the middle section - you can hide the upper and lower sections, so that effectively piano roll gets most of the screen :) 2. Yes. 3. Yes 4. Sadly not right now, no. An audio time-stretcher instrument/engine was initially planned for BAM, so it could be implemented in the future.
