Midi Echo AUv3 Midi Fx Note : AUv3 midi apps need a compatible host (AUM,Audiobus 3, Cubasis, BM3 etc).
So what is a midi echo? It is similar to the audio echo effect where copies of the original audio are repeated at regular time intervals but with some form of change (e.g. quieter). But unlike audio, midi is digital in nature (low resolution 8 bit mostly) and focused around the midi note on & off message used to control synths etc.
This app acts on midi note-on independently from the note-off but when the note – off appears it echoes the release of the note-on in the same way the note-on was echoed (pitch interval etc) even if the UI controls have changed.
UI Controls exist to allow you to:
* Select the type of echo (fixed, ping pong, taper)
* Vary the number of echoes (from 0 to 20)
* Make echoes quieter by reducing the midi velocity
* Define the pitch interval (semitone) of all successive echoes
* Select the delay time between echoes either tempo sync or in mSec
* Define the delay type (fixed, tempo, random 50, random 20)
* Set the midi channel of echoes (1-16) so that other synths can select the echo only
* Disable individual echoes – to allow you to play chords with a small or 0 delay
* Set Midi thru to keep/remove the original note messages
* Panic button to quickly turn off all notes
* Setup control automation as all controls are AU Parameters
Ratshack Reverb is a detailed model of that classic of classics, the Realistic Electronic Reverb. Now, you can have the sound of everyone’s first analog delay unit, without ever having to change batteries!
As anyone who has owned this unit (which is just about everyone…) knows, it was actually an analog delay, not a reverb at all, and we’ve done our best to exactly replicate the sound and quirks of the original. We’ve even modeled the distortion that occurs by running a line signal in to the mic inputs.
Features
» Accurate analog “bucket-brigade” style delay model. Change the delay time, and the signal pitches accordingly.
» Both mic and line inputs modeled, for overdriving the delay section if desired.
» XML-based cross-platform preset manager, with copy and paste. (You can even move presets between the iOS version and the desktop version with Handoff.)
» Entirely vector-based resizable high-resolution user interface
The Woodman Woodpressor audio unit has a nifty little sidechain feature and it’s super easy to use. I chose to do this in Cubasis but it works the same in other apps like AUM for example.

You might know me from my royalty free loop packs and sound design. Some of the apps that contain my sounds are Synth One, EG Segments, Hammerhead, Retronyms AudioCopy, Audio Evolution Mobile, LP-5, iPRO.DJSAMPLER, Looptastic. My work is published by Roland, Antares, Magix, Soundtrack Loops, Sample Logic, Acoustica, Loopmasters and many more. Subscribe to our RSS feed below to get updated when new apps are posted.
