Koala Sampler & Roland Zenbeats Workflow on IPhone

[@cooperlyle8781]

I LOOOVEE koala. I've never used zenbeats but it has interested me for soooo long. But so many conflicting reviews. And I've never really found any good tutorials.. so thank you

[@robojobot77]

No idea what I am doing but was able to replicate this and it is rad! I struggled with the built in sequencer. Excited to mess around. Thanks!

[@schmotown]

Thanks for the lesson. I’ve had Zenbeats for awhile but I just started using Koala and this was incredibly helpful.

[@tahiche.]

Zenbeats is certainly overlooked. Best, fastest and most complete DAW on iOS. 👍

[@thegeenius]

thorough and exactly what i was lookin' for,, even the mistakes helped.. really appreciate the time taken.. thank u,

[@MrMallum]

Blocs Wave is REALLY underrated imho! I looooooove it for off the cuff beat making. ZenBeats is really cool as well; it has that Ableton Live clip launching to Timeline vibe. Live is my main DAW so this works nicely in hand. Nice vid!!

[@vcodev108]

yes I love blocks wave!!!

[@DjLamech]

I'm so glad I ran across your page I have Zen beats on my MacBook I never heard a koala I have to look into that the project I'm working on now I would like to hook up my M-Audio code 61 keyboard to the Zen beats so I can play my keys from the Zen beats on the code 61. You mentioned automation please do more tutorials I like the way you explain things and give an example I don't think it will be much different from the iPhone creating sounds opposed to my MacBook I'll just have to use the cursor because it's not touch sensitive you got a new subscriber thank you for all your information I appreciate you.

Nice! I love Koala and I’m just getting into Zenbeats. FYI, I am also trying all of this out with the Keystep Pro.

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

This is dope for giving a better sequencer.

[@GospelMusic4Life]

I tried zenbeats a while back and didn’t really get into it. I recently downloaded for my kids android tablets and saw an update. I like it’s lay out my only issue was I didn’t fully get it for what I want to do which is everything daw and play live. I decided to test the subscription. I can see it’s powerful but couldn’t quite get me head around some of it. Seeing that I can load my other apps now makes me believe I might be able to use this live now. If that is the case and the app is stable this is definitely worth the $30/year subscription. If it does the job when I figure things out I’m going to try to push this a little more. I really want to use my iPad for live gigging.

Fantastic video! I've used these apps separately, but was never able to create a satisfying workflow myself. Thank you for this. Question, how were you able to activate the mute/solo option in Koala near the bottom left of the screen?

[@lugo4905]

I’m beta testing an unreleased version of Koala. I can’t really do a demonstration video of that yet until it’s officially released.

[@cooperlyle8781]

@@lugo4905 I was gonna say he must be a beta tester

[@a_nick_t]

Roland just put out ZB3. Really great but issues with AU’s. They’re aware and working on an update.

[@lugo4905]

I’m gonna do a demo of the new update- it’s good, but the issues are real

[@MGtheProducer]

Good job dude !

[@tzodearf2596]

Big ups. Hope I get ZenBeats down because it will help tweak Koala productions, esp fx and automation.

[@pr4yTheProducer]

How did you get zenbeats to play koala like that?

[@lugo4905]

Insert koala on instrument channel then assign midi output of Zenbeats drum channel to koala.

[@eladyihie2502]

Hay dud stop shaking the table 😂

[@eFiddle]

So you used another iPhone to shoot this iPhone, the quality is very good, subbed.

[@lugo4905]

I sure did. That’s my old 6s+. Runs Zenbeats and Koala well!

[@ricardomilice2470]

Thanks for your video, Can you help me out? I was trying to record Koala and other apps inside Zenbeats. For the life of me, I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.

[@lugo4905]

Are you trying to record the Audio or the Midi events?

[@ricardomilice2470]

@@lugo4905 I’m trying to record audio from another app.

[@lugo4905]

@@ricardomilice2470 you can load the app in an instrument track, then record the midi in a loop. From there you can add whatever effects you want in that tray. Then, you’d have to create an audio track. Then you can simply drag the midi loop from the instrument track into the audio track and it will bounce down as audio with the effects and everything that was on that track. I hope this makes sense.

[@tahiche.]

@@lugo4905 no way! Can you do this?. Since when??. I’m gonna try this right now!.

[@tahiche.]

Yes, I totally forgot about that!. That’s new in v3, right?. In the case of your example, if sending the drum midi to koala, you’d have to actually copy the midi sequence to the koala track first in order to render it. I wish this same method could be applied to audio to render an audio track with all fx applied, sort of like a bounce down.

[@johnreedy]

Great tutorial

[@FranciscoAlves-hx8cg]

how to enable this option to sync with Koala?

[@lugo4905]

Unlock AUV3 in Zenbeats store and then unlock AuV3 in Koala.

[@FranciscoAlves-hx8cg]

@@lugo4905 How much do you have to pay for it?

[@lugo4905]

@@FranciscoAlves-hx8cg the AuV3 expansion in Koala is $4 and the unlock in Zenbeats is $15

Salut 👋 merci

Dude I just figured out the cut copy doesn’t display on my iPad Air screen 😮😱😱😱

[@lugo4905]

You mean for the scene? Or the clip notes? I’m still able to do everything the same on my old iPad Air even with all the newer updates to Zenbeats
