Helium AUv3 MIDI Sequencer

Published by: Limelight Software

Description

Helium is a lightweight AUv3 MIDI sequencer plugin designed specifically for AUM. It supports up to 16 tracks of unlimited length with the ability to direct output to 16 channels on up to 16 MIDI output ports.
One of the great features is the ability to import and maintain libraries of MIDI clips using Helium's 'Media Bay'. These clips are freely available all over the internet and may contain individual chord sets, chord progressions or drum tracks. You can quickly build a song by dragging and dropping your MIDI clips from the media bay onto your timeline. You can also save your own clips directly to the media bay to create your own personal MIDI clips libraries. Long press on a clip to preview its contents using the currently selected MIDI device.
Helium now ships with a library of over 7000 MIDI clips, consisting of every chord and chord progression you could ever need.
Helium allows many different ways to import additional MIDI clip libraries. Simply drag and drop your ZIP collections directly to your PC/MAC web browser and they are automatically unpacked into the clips library folder. You can also drag and drop files between the Media Bay and the iOS Files app.
Helium supports a sync mode called 'Remote Looping'. This was something we recently introduced into our MultiTrack Recorder plugin and is very useful for breaking down the timeline into sections.  You can define up to 12 loops which can be used to specify the locations of say the intro, verse, chorus, and outro within your song, then trigger these loops seemlessly in sync with the host tempo. Once captured, these loops can then be triggered by incoming MIDI notes.
A new addition to Helium is the ability to piece together loops into songs, so you just concentrate on creating a single verse, chorus, bridge etc. and piece everything together without the headache of having to re-arrange your timeline.

Helium AUv3 MIDI Sequencer Reviews

Helium is gonna surpass infinity!(maybe not)

Deathrow Inmates on

Update- Randomising using a scale such as mono arp, poly arp, random etc. Selecting the “random” function in the randomizing process from the menu causes the app to crash consistently. It also crashes the daw using the app. Extremely irritating bug. Bug Report Update- Hey Paul, there’s a consistent bug that causes crashes the project every time, while using randomisation functions, if you move over to “random” button(after mono arp, poly arp), the daw just vanishes away from the screen, then restart is the option. Amazing work on the recent updates but didn’t wanted helium to having this irritating and fatal bug. Do check on this. Given that Paul, his health and mental fortitude is intact, This app is literally going to change the game and the rules! No paul didn’t give it to me, bought it. Had flaws, glitches! But the way Paul is doing things, this app is just unparalleled! The thing is uneducated musicians won’t know the potential it offers, Paul developed this for the ones who knows the game! Regards!

Pretty solid with lots of very unique features but..

Desperately needs a "Scissor tool" to be able to shorten midi events but would make 2 events out of the one, or 3 out of the same one if shortened again. Thanks

Just what I needed!

Estevanovich on

United States

I was looking for a simple enough yet deep enough MIDI sequencer to use with Loopy Pro. This one is just right for my needs… and with plenty of extra functionality under the hood if needed. I watched the two recent masterclass tutorials on YouTube from the author. They were super clear and helpful. Bravo!

Midi import

Fidoly Me on

United States

I haven't used this feature in a while. It used to work smoothly, but now when I import midi files with more than one instrument (from Logic Pro X or Reaper) all the tracks are mixed together on track one. Is it because I upgraded my iPad?

Great app and devs

PDXPNWORWA on

United States

This is a great complement to Atom sequencer whose pattern sets are similar to the remote loops in Helium but which are cumbersome to make act like Atom’s patterns. I use Helium to sequence Atom into full songs with Helium’s loops as cue points for live performance.

More fluidity please.

AFTR | PARTY on

United States

When grabbing and dragging around notes on the piano roll, the note kind of lags behind. It feels like im dragging the note by a string instead of the note selected moving right along with my finger. A great example of fluidity where there’s no lag moving notes around is beat maker 3. Sure you have way more piano roll options in this but it can feel a bit clunky when I can’t quickly / fluidly grab a note and reposition it without that laggy automation. Not bashing the app I just see this as an opportunity for growth. So far so good though thanks for the recent update.

Essential for previewing midi loops

FlashGordon45 on

United States

Been using Helium for a year now, It has become a staple in my AUM setup - using the midi browser to trigger loops from my large collection of midi basslines, melodies and drums loops. Helium makes it easy to preview loops with minimal setup.

A powerful and multifaceted MIDI sequencer

EdZiPad on

United States

I’ve been using this app for about 5 years and it is better than ever. I use it frequently in my projects these days. If you need help understanding and using the app, good news - the built in help has been totally reworked and expanded and it’s great. Plus there’s a load of new features and fixes that have been added. The developer is very engaged and actively supports the app. There are some great tutorials out there, both old and new which can get you started or help you get the most out of the app. I consider this app a great value for the price. It’s got more features than some similar apps at double the price or more, but to me it’s worth it even for the most basic functions.

Show us how to use the chord track…

whyshouldi? on

United States

(No, you didn’t. ) I hit velocity, and the following behavior is nothing like what you demonstrated. I turn on chord track and it doesn’t make a difference. I double tap, or hold on the blank chord track bar and nothing is shown. Please, please, show us from absolute scratch , with nothing preset in your demonstration and at the beginning of the tutorial how to get the and add chords in the track.

Exported Midi, clips, and songs are not in the folders, only for helium access

fgjyfdf on

United States

What’s the point of exporting midi files if I can’t access them. Only helium will open midi files created in helium. Anything created in helium is unavailable. Just call it "save project". The helium folder remain empty…
