Yes, should automatically show up as an update... As long as Apple approve the update, of course... all being well, shouldn't be too long now...

Alright, im geting it! :D

Hey btw, I use Bebot (XY pad synth app) on iPhone a lot when I perform live, because the size of the iPhone screen is perfect for musically controling pitch and filter. Its easy to hold in one hand and get pitch precission with the other. Sort of the same pickup size as a guitar, if you get what I mean. It would not work with an iPad, I would have to rest it on a table or stand, and because of the size its hard to look at the audience and guess hand position at the same time on a big glass screen. With the small size of the iPhone I always know where my fingers are at, in the dark without looking. It would be a revolution to my world if it could be possible to run Konkreet Performer on iPhones!

I got the Camera Conection kit, and downloading to the iPad now! :)

Thank you. Having MIDI has really opened up the app for us too - been making presets for KP to work with other apps and hardware synths and just getting lost in the KP world and discovering new sound modulations... a good sign... Anyway, enjoy the update!

Yup - there's some first ones already on http://konkreetlabs.com/getting-started/ - scroll down to the end of the page. We're in the process of organising all the new documentation properly and also will set up a dedicated location on the forum for users to share presets... Our example presets are just demonstrations of the different types of control available, but I hope the list will grow...

Edit: if you want to connect to Live, then the standard default mapping is fine for this, but this, too, will be documented on the site soon :)

Hi folks,

Anyone used KP with external screen/projector mirroring e.g. using AppleTV and AirPlay successfully?

We looked at supporting VGA mirroring a long while back (back pre-iPad2), but decided not to do it, so wondering what set-ups work well with newer iPads/iOS...?

Appreciate any feedback, cheers... :)
