iKaossilator mixing behaviour issue
Posted: Sat Nov 12, 2011 6:07 pm
Hello All,
I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, or has even spent a lot of time with this app, but I figured it was worth a shot.
I've been using this app extensively since it was released, so I'd like to think I know my way around it. However, as of today, the performance behaviour for mixing has changed drastically, and I can't find any way to change it back.
Previously, I was able to switch between patterns being played in the loop list with ease, and they would transition nearly immediately, with no visual cue, on the next downbeat. In the same manner I could easily mix loops between patterns. Loved it.
Now, however, when I attempt to transition between patterns OR loops I'm forced to wait for the pattern that is playing to play through to the end of its longest contained sub-loop. In addition, the pattern number indicator now flashes in tempo until the loop is triggered, where it previously didn't. This has effectively killed my ability to use it live.
The only thing that is different between now and then is that I now have over 150 patterns in my loop list. There doesn't seem to be any settings that affect transitions in this manner, and I haven't altered anything in the operating environment at all (iPad 1, OS5). A hard reset didn't help, and deleting a few patterns didn't change the behaviour, either. I'm at a loss.
Any ideas?
