DigiStix 2 AUv3 Plugin

The white border is driving me nuts. Especially in dark settings. Also on an iPad mini, that white space takes up usable real estate. Is it possible to have a mode that goes full screen so it’s easier to access items on a small screen? (Especially in portrait mode… it’s doesn’t seem to use the entire vertical space) I think it could also look more integrated as an app rather than decorating it to look like a physical module. Also thinking about using this for live gigs. Possible to have a low graphic usage mode where the decorative elements and some VFX are removed to improve reliability and reduce chances of a crash? (Haven’t experienced one yet but just a thought) Thanks!

I think this app is powerful and an important tool for iOS music production, but I’m the type that won’t buy an app unless I can use it on an iPhone as well. I’m sorry but the UI on iPhone is unacceptable (as for all of “4pockets” plugins) and should be pulled from the app store unless it gets a redesign

Since it's the only one I could find with multiple levels on each sample, it is doing nicely... The midi control/learn could be greatly expanded though- for example how about pattern erase? thanks!

The description mentions midi mapping, but that’s only for the note numbers that trigger the pads. I need a way to control the filter cutoff and panning of individual pads with MIDI CCs. You can adjust these parameters with onscreen controls but there’s no way to map them to external controllers. If all the controls were linkable/mappable to CCs that would make it so much more usabe as a software sampler to play with my external controller.

😀👍

This app is pretty awesome….. please add an option so that we can remove the white border and use it in full screen that would help some of the things looking too small plus the white is annoying to look at

If there is anything that would consist both divinity and artistic integrity, Digistix 2 is that thing. I, I don’t know how Paul does it, but the sheer amount of artistic freedom and creativity he puts in his app is unparalleled. Among all the developers in the iOS platform, someday Paul and his 4pockets creations would considered Hall of Famers. His Shimmer, Reverb, DigiStix2, vocal soloist, sideband, Time Machine, and others are just phenomenal. None quite so equal, none will ever be.

PLEASE MAKE THE PADS BIGGER! I want to really like this app and you’ve done a good job but, I just don’t get how this could get overlooked. I’m a drummer of 50+ years. When sampling became a “thing” I taught myself finger drumming and can confidently say I can play as well or better now with my digits than behind a full kit. That is assuming of course that the pads have full velocity sensitivity and are large enough to navigate a blisteringly fast black metal drum track and come out alive. Something like a nice MPC3000 from the days of yor. You actually describe the pads in this app as “MPC style”. I’ve known many an MPC and this sir, is no MPC. The pads are tiny! Is there a way you could make one full page of the scroll down window dedicated to just pads and a few essential control buttons (copy, paste, import, arrange, bank select, patch select, pad edit, sample edit, midi assign) just a nice neat column of control buttons next to a commanding and respectful 4x4 pad bank. Man,.. makes me think the future might just be ok when I think about it.. Do you think you could do that? That would be awesome! I’ll be looking for that update, because until then, this is useless.

When trying to mute a track on bank a or c it doesn’t solo out

There are some promising qualities here. I would highly recommend merging the round robin and velocity laters, so the user can have 3 or 4 round robin samples for each layer. This is key to getting realistic drums. So each drum would have about 15 or 20 samples. My other observation is the sample editor screen is squashed so arbitrarily small, the user can’t even get enough of a vertical visual on the waveform to see where low velocity samples start when editing. That’s a confusing choice to me. Why not make the sample edit screen full screen with a close button? I created a custom kit with velocity layers, but It took forever and was extremely tedious in the gui because the start of the waveforms for the soft samples were so hard to see. The ‘scrolling interface’ and small sampler editor also becomes cumbersome, quickly. I’d make each gui page full screen with buttons to quickly tab to each. Lots of great stuff here, nonetheless. Please, though, most importantly, add 3-4 round robin samples for each velocity layer and then you’ve really got something here. Some updates and Digistix could be the cat’s meow!
