New app FA MIDI published for Android and iOS

The app is Drum Pattern Player and Midi Events Monitor. It supports USB-MIDI and Bluetooth LE MIDI. And it supports rotation of the gadget (Portrait or Landscape orientation).

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... bex.FAMIDI
App Store: https://apps.apple.com/ru/app/fa-midi/id1527555917

DRUMS player provides accompaniment for your guitar, piano or synthesizer. There are 16 styles with about 800 high-quality midi drums patterns to choose from. Drums patterns can be played directly on your gadget by soft synthesizer or by sending midi events to connected hardware synthesizer.

There is a difference between iOS and Android versions of the app:
iOS version provides internal synthesizer with build-in high quality stereo sound bank.
Android version is just midi controller. However, if you which to hear drum sounds directly from your phone or tablet, it is possible by downloading from Google Play and installing the free and small app Fluidsynth Midi Synthesizer. You don’t need to open Fluidsynth. It will be opened by FA MIDI automatically and will work as background service providing cheap GM sound. Also, it is possible to add to Fluidsynth better free sound banks (.sf2), which could be downloaded, for example, from MuseScore site. Open Fluidsynth, go to page Settings, switch off internal sound bank and select from your storage better bank. Then start FA MIDI and play with better sound.

EVENTS is for monitoring incoming midi events from connected hardware synthesizers.
The event monitor decodes and reports any type of midi events except of “Timing Clock” and “Active Sensing” and Meta events (like Lyrics, Markers, etc.). The list of events could be saved to log file. System Exclusive events are reported without decoding. You can see raw events in Hex if check box is selected.

Sending program change events

Post by Trader One »

Is possible to add feature to your program using pads on one device for sending program change to another?

I mean any hit to pad 1 on device 1 will send program change x y to device 2. I really need this feature and haven't figured it out how to do this on ipad.
