Mozaic Plugin Workshop

I purchased this app to enable me to receive and send SysEx data dumps from my keyboard to Cubasis3 on my iPad, mainly to change the transpose to what ever key I require, but just by selecting one of many templates in Mozaic I was able to achieve my goals without any effort on my part. Best purchase ever in my opinion. Worthy of 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I started out using this app to make my old Novation LaunchControl Mk1 light up the pads when i pressed them, and as I got to grips with the incredible Mozaic programming language I came to realise the vast possibilities I suddenly had at my fingertips. This has turned my simple hardware and ipad combination into something that can do exactly what i want it to do, no need to search for other apps that can sort of get me close to what I want. Incredible.

Did some internet research and discovered a script that gave LED feedback. It worked! Fantastic for feedback on the controller when performing live. Overjoyed! Many thanks Mr Mosaic!

There is a small selection of interface panels you can use. If you want to do anything complex, you need to do things like reassigning knob functionality based on button/pad selection. This requires dynamically labelling the pads with the knob settings so you can see them when the pad isn’t selected. However, MOZAIC HAS NO STRING VARIABLE SUPPORT. You can only use string constants when setting pad labels. This means that 1000s of lines of if...elseif... code has to be written to cater for every possible label even if you’re only doing this for a couple of pads. The developer has so far refused to implement even the simplest of string variable support (assign/read), so as it stands, Mozaic is severely crippled for anything but the most basic of tasks that require a user interface. RESPONSE: Agreed. You can give a pad a name, but if you want to show the status of 4 knobs in English on that pad it takes over 600 lines of code. Mozaic’s engine is very powerful, but it’s hamstrung (Bramstrung?) by shortcomings in visual feedback to the user. It’s a Ferrari with bicycle wheels... 2ND RESPONSE: Not how it works. Ratings are subjective. Mine is based on the opinion that this issue is the one thing that severely handicaps the capability of Mozaic coupled with the fact that you have refused to even entertain the idea of implementing ANY of the different workarounds for flexible labelling suggested by several sources, not just mine. “I stand by my decision.”

If you have any computer script writing skill at all - JavaScript, PHP etc - this is the only MIDI effects plug-in you need. Once you get your head around the way that events work you can manipulate MIDI data in any way you can think of. I have brought new life to an old MIDI foot controller that just sends Program Change messages so that I can use it as bass pedals, control a looper or as a guitar FX pedalboard. I have also added key zones to a keyboard and made several utilities. It’s amazing how little actual code you need to write to achieve useful stuff.

Yes this unlocks it all, practically limitless control of midi. Everything your other midi plugins do, this does it in the 5th dimension. Its simple enough for a 2 line program to be quicker and easier to make than trying to find a plugin that does the same thing, and its deep enough to write a game with. Automation of a looper and weird sequencing ideas is why i wanted it. I know a bit of programming this is a really effective and simple language, immediately satisfying, ideas i buried for years have started to pop out again. I’m hooked.

Wow ! Superb bit of kit .

Nothing less than 5 ⭐️ A genius app for all it can do and more... alike a gift that keeps giving; thanks to the community of coders & creatives 😎✌🏽

I could not chose from everything I don’t already have and if I hadn’t chose this, I’d have insulted my own intelligence. Quite possibly the best Acid synth I’ve ever heard on ISO. I have upgraded to three of this developers apps and 2 decades ago I would have laughed at what your getting at the more than reasonable cost. iPhones are becoming more accessible to the kids and this app in particular is what I was anticipating from them. Nice one.

The music app can be what you want it to be in the midi world. It’s gonna be the app that keeps on giving. We take you places you didn’t know existed. A number one essential tool in the world of AU midi.
