what is this really - I have the feeling I may be missing out?


Thanks

Takes the Apc40 and multiplies its options ten fold..... From simple upgrades(clips top buttons light when a clips playing) to more powerful control (on the fly looping with automatic follow actions at clip end) a set of effects ( momentary beat repeats, turntable brake and reverse)

In fact it's impossible to be short, it's been nearly two years work!

Manual at isotonikstudios.com/isotonik

Primarily for live performance using session mode....

Any questions ask away!

I haven't tried it but I think you can try a "Lite" version for free. Then if you like it and want the full, buy it.

Do you have an APC 40? If you do, Isotonik is simply a MUST HAVE tool... ;-)

We're slowly updating each of the modular devices so that you can have and build a template around the feature set of Isotonik with any midi controller....

Hello.

Don't know if this question is answered before but why is there no version for the little brother apc20?

That's a pity. For me the apc20 is a lot more logical controller because I own a BCR2000 already. I thought of the whole Isotonik thing a lot more professional in supporting the controller hardware.. but no offence ;-)

I'm sorry you lost me? Maybe you could explain?

Sorry it was late in the night and my english is a bit.. not trained lately. I just wanted to say that I would really like to try out your software but aren't able to test it because my apc is a little bit smaller and doesn't have the decoders. But I don't miss them because I own already an Behringer BCR2000. I thought that - since it's the same manufacturer - it shouldn't be a problem to adapt your software to something smaller. And when I am looking at your website it all looks not like hobby more like professional. So in my head imagining your position if it's not to complicate I would adapt the software for the apc20 just to sell more / earn more money. Maybe you can borrow the thing or buy it and after testing send it back. It's not that difficult to organize something like that. (In germany/europe you can test the thing for 30 days and then decide.)
Hope the point is now clearer. I didn't want to sound aggressive. :-)

Ah i see....

The APC20 uses a different control surface script and whilst i can read it i can't test it and i've found this is essential.

Your correct i could borrow an APC20 however i don't have the time to develop a version for it currently and as i mentioned the requests for supporting it have been low so as such i have to prioritise my time to that which has most demand being the APC40 and Novation Launchpad.... I'll continue to produce modular devices that allow you to use other midi controllers to achieve similar effects, the APC20 has a distinct advantage in the fact it has it's various Note modes and the like, something the APC40 is lacking as standard...

Sadly although the website looks professional i'm still a way away from bei ng able to give up the day job :-(
