Each new tutorial reminds us of of the nice way you share your skills with us. Thanks for doing so!

I haven't used Wavegenerator so far, but I like using Nave in my iPad. It's really great how the Kronos connects with the iPad via camera connection kit, and that opens a lot of possibilities.

Meamwhile I use my iPad Air with Cubasis (which is still developing) - connecting easily to the Kronos for midi and audio, and completely replacing the internal K sequencer for anything I record on the fly.

Thanks.

Hey, that looks great, thanks. I have some nice synths on my iPad (including Nave, and the idea of playing them from the Kronos and having them sounding through the Kronos sounds cool!

Hi Qui !
Excellent tutorial as always !
Great pad sounds !
Thanks a lot for sharing !


Cheers

Once again, wow! Another great tutorial. Thanks!

Excellent. I trie this with animo an my iPhone a while back. Sadly I don't have a iPad to use nave on with my Kronos. I have tried Nave on a company iPad and it is a fantastic synth.
My only problem with iPads are I wish I could use more then one synth at a time, which is why I wish these synth apps were available on the computer so we could run multiple apps at once. Maybe that's just me though.

Thanks for the vid another excellent tutorial!

I don't know for certain but I think that with the new Audiobus upgrade it just might be possible to run more than one synth at a time. w
If anybody know for sure, that would be cool!
Especially in conjunction with your Kronos!

well, i'm sure that my current iPad 3 won't have enough cpu power to run two cpu intensive ipad synths at once. But i will definitely try out this new audiobus feature as soon as my new iPad air 2 will arrive (next week) and report here.

Thank you Qui!
Is there a way to send program changes to Nave? I find the on-screen program selection in the app very small. I'm tired of it.

Thanks Qui


I am looking for some warm atmospheric sounds for a Meditation CD I am planning. Slow Synth, motion Synth.

Have I missed any of your new stuff to purchase?

Cheers

no you didn't miss it yet, the release of the ambient dreams combi collection was delayed because i got very ill in the last few months. I was fighting a bacterial infection in my blood that didn't react to the antibiotics the doctors gave me. But eventually they succeeded and i'm almost recovered now, so i started working on the sound sets and tutorials again and they will be up as soon as possible.

Man thats so bad and so similar to my situation except I had an infection in the large intestine starting in January that was mis-diagnosed, so its been a bit of a hellish few months with tests galore
Having my appendix out in two weeks

Anyhow, I hope you are well now and I will be sure to buy your next sound set.


It seems like a great coincidence that it times with my next project.

All the best.

That's terrible, you guys! Glad to hear you're both on the mend again!

Been hot tubbing with the wrong people!
Kidding! but be careful over there and get well soon you guys!
