Hey, thanks for the informative reply. Hope to see anything like this in ths future built in to n-Track - it would be just a pure killer in fact.
Anyway, it’s good to have you around and see that you keep working on the DAW, which is already packed with one of the most diverse toolset on the market, if not actually the most among others in iOS field.
I’ve tried every available actually except for Cubasis (I assume it’s the only one that actually may have to some degree similar amount of built-in tools, but I just see no reason in spending this amount of money on a DAW that is landscape-only), so can not speak for it from my experience, But every other - without a doubt - not even close in these terms.
For anyone who may come across this thread and have any interest in
VPO - since it’s not possible to just run the instrument straight “from the box” on iOS, it’s actually possible to replicate it’s original functionality almost 100% accurately, since all the WAV files are available for download as a part of the whole package - using any kind of decent Sampler (Rompler/Advanced Groovebox) that lets you import, map and multilayer user sample files - for example Drambo, it runs as a standalone, as an AUv3 instrument/audio proccessor as well as MIDI fx, making it perfect for this kind of purposes.
The script-files’ contents are easy to read and understand if opened as text files (changing file extention prior to opening from sfz to txt).
There you may find every path to a certain wav-sample along with ADSR (envelope) settings, range of notes for each sample etc, etc, etc. In other words - everything you may possibly need to replicate samples’ behavior in any other suitable virtual instrument builder.
by most of it content looks like this:
ampeg_attack=0.300
ampeg_vel2attack=-0.300
// slower release for slower notes = legato effect (PB)
ampeg_release=2.25
ampeg_vel2release=-1.0
sample=…\libs\SSO\Samples\Basses\basses-sus-c1-PB-loop.wav
pan=10; volume=-0.5; lokey=c1; hikey=d#1; pitch_keycenter=c1; tune=6
But maaaaan, it’s definitely quite a pain in the ass of a process, since VPO’s sample library is huge. Hope that I’ll finish this rebuild somewhen, ‘cause at the same time this library is surely decent.
