As for my iOS projects, they sync between iPad and iPhone but don't appear in the iCloud Drive itself when accessed from Mac. I don't know a way to access same drive from iOS devices.
Hello everybody.
I made a new song using only ('only') Korg Gadget. The song is in sync with a gif. I hope you enjoy:

What video editor did you use to marry the audio with the gif loop?

I simply calculate the bpm of the gif and make the song. And then, in imovie, y put the audio and move the video until it matches

The new Vancouver Gadget is the sampler that a many of us KORG Gadget users have been waiting for! Vancouver gadget offers Double sample layering, playing samples across the keyboard with samples transposing according to pitch and on top of that, we can even get some granular action going. Check out this full review and tutorial to find out more. haQ attaQ Provides!

Nice one!
I've been having a blast by assigning sample-start, length, pitch and others parameters to the knobs on the nanoKEY and automating the IFX filter when needed. It's almost like having a Volca Sample
can you automate those other parameters you assigned to the knobs.... sample start, length etc..?
Thanks so much for this, Jacob. Would love to see a tutorial on best practices for rolling your own samples.
Random thought: Is the name 'Vancouver' supposed to put one in mind of 'Volca'? (I'd assume Volgograd was unappealing.)

(For each 'oscillator' you can automate Start % , Length %, Loop Switch(On/Off), Loop %, Reverse(On/Off), Tune(Pitch +/- 24), Level, Attack, Release and Sustain On/Off).Great video, thanks. I'm getting sorely tempted by this now, particlarly as I've just had a ball triggering Gadget via Odessa.
Granular action? So the samples play at same speed regardless of pitch?

Thanks everyone! And thanks @samu for replying to the various questions.

It strikes me that there are no Russian names. I have the idea that Korg avoids it. Especially the music world is ditate by PC nonsense. And Russia is of course the enemy.

Under iOS11 Gadget has some 'issues' with laggy touch response on the piano-roll keys on the left side of the screen. It's the same 'thing' that plagues some other apps and I know Korg will fix it at some point.
And Files.app support is still missing but I have some hopes for the 3.5.1 update or so if the Korg dudes keep their eyes open. It will be / and is a 'game changer' for file-sharing between apps.
If you haven't already, mess around with assigning the knobs on the nanoKEY to some other parameters than the defaults when using Vancouver. It can get very close to a Volca Sample

All the Gadget names have names that ties into something specific music-wise for each of the cities. So if they made a KORG Volca KICK type Gadget, they'd most likely end up naming it Tokyo (I think the Volca sample was developed there).
In an interview with Kazuhito Inoue (chief programmer) from KORH he mentioned that for instance Helsinki has a colder
Ambient sound to it and it's because Helsinki lies in the north and has a colder climate or something along those lines. Helsinki is also know for its rich noise and ambience scene.Kamata an 8-bit Gadget is named that way because Namco's office used to be in the city with the same name.
There's a nice musical story behind each Gadget. Love that!
Miami for instance is a bass gadget and I think this picture pretty much sums it up.
Btw, Volgograd is an awesome name! Hope they make a Gadget like that.

I get the irony, but Russia is, in fact, the enemy.

Crap I forgot there already is a Tokyo drum gadget In there...
I mostly use London and Recife for drums. Gotta grab Tokyo for a bit.

Tokyo is excellent. One of my favorite drum synths on iOS! The automation makes it a really malleable rhythm element.

Edit : what's the longest length of sample ?Looks like it's 10 seconds. I think it's the same as Abu Dhabi?

True that, still miss some of the features from iElectribe though.
The Tube Amp' from iElectribe would be nice to have at the 'master' in Gadget and selectable just like the new DeeMax thing that really brings Gadget to life.
Shortest comparison I can make is that Gadget sounds a bit 'dull, dead & sterile' without DeeMax

Kiev?
Was trying to figure out why the Odyssey is called Lexington. I was thinking Kentucky. Finally, after much googling I figured out that Alan R Peralman's company (ARP) was located in Lexington, MA (greater Boston area)!

That's a stuffed, breaded chicken breast if I'm not mistaken.

Really! iElectribe has those drum sounds? And DeeMax is that necessary? Is there no downside? I remember when MP3 first came out, and it sounded fine for everything, but I heard a recording of Paul Robeson singing 'Old Man River,' and I realized, oh, this doesn't work for this kind of music. Is there no downside to the DeeMax?

Kiev is not Russia...
It’s Ukraine (does it spells like that?)...The speed changes with the pitch? In the year 2017? Highly impractical then.. Maybe in future updates.. Korg are you listening?
