Beatmaker 3 IOS

[clanarchy]

I've been using Beatmaker 2 the last couple of years for 90% of my beats. Version 3 is finally out tomorrow.
Looking forward to upgrading to this shyt for the weekend. If anyone checking the tunnel is thinking about getting in to beat making this a nice, light on the budget way to do it...

Check the Artistic Aggresion link in my sig, did that whole tape on BM2

I actually made another thread on this before when they were holding a contest to get a free copy of the app. With that said, I'm copping tomorrow and for 20 dollars you can't go wrong.

I make my beats on bm2 as wel faml but sooner then later I will need to make that transition to Maschine.

With this said fam I hope they improved the effect on this app cause BM2 had a terrible reverb and I didn't like the EQ but I made it work lol. This shyt looking so wavy Plus they got chords and scales for nikkas who can't play paino like myself. Thank the most high.

Agreed effects not great last time around. The last year or so I started exporting the finished beats into mixcraft 7pro and adding the effects in there.

Yeah man, you're better off exporting it and mixing it on something on a PC.

On another note, do you know what time it will be out in the US? I see it isn't available on the US app store yet.

Should be out now.. I just got on the UK store.
Trying to get used to the new layouts etc Gonna be a while for my 1st beat on this lol.

Yeah man it's way different but looks cleaner and more minimalist. Reminds me a little of the imaschine 2 lay out from what I see in the videos but with better features.

It dropped about an hour ago here in the US but on second thought what I plan to do is finish up my beats in BM2 and export them so that way I can have more space for BM3. I'll probably be purchasing it Tuesday instead.

How is the memory usage on it though? Can you load up a lot of tracks and play them back with no issues? I own an ipad air so I wonder if that will be an issue.

I've only done a small test beat so far, so cant comment on the memory usage. I'm just trying to figure out how to hook up to ftp and transfer all my samples. I think the only option is dropbox or itunes though.......

Wow you can record the parameters for Audio units now so if you bring in another app you can record what you do to the knobs and the whole nine right in bm3. This is a game changer

I see and dang, that sucks if they got rid of ftp but itunes isn't so bad. It's faster then FTP too which used to take forever for me.

Just downloaded seems dope. You can use iCloud Drive for samples

I'm off to a slow start but here is the 2nd beat so far...not really used anything I couldn't do in BM2 but I'm still getting used to it.

Fire! Sounding dope so far. Are these BM3 effects you're using or did you export it to mixcraft? Kick sounds very punchy and snare sounds crisp.

Kept this one in BM3. Effects are definitely better this time round. I've had a few crashes though.....

Damn, that's bitter sweet Hopefully they iron out the crashes but good to hear their better effect wise. They got to squash the crash issues and if you keep having them maybe you should tweet them or reach out.

Also I just found out I won a free license for this in their contest Gonna claim this shyt now. God bless America!
