Ideas and Feature Requests

Hey everyone !

Here is a summary of diverse requests I had for the past year playing with the wonderful arp, and that would make it even more wonderful. Some of them have already been requested by others.

• Main need : After changing the value with an encoder (macro or main), clicking the encoder knob to get back to your first loaded value

  
  

• Main need : Allowing to choose to assign different destinations to macroknobs within each patch, instead of just general assignations (EG. macroknob1 destination set to pitch in Bank1 pat1 and to steps in Bank1 pat2)

• Main need : Naming patches and displaying their name when selected (for instance at the bottom left of the screen before the Bank and patch numbers, or instead of the "Arp settings" title on the screen)

  
  

• Main need : Adding the possibility to have alternative chords and scales related and locked to…

It would be great if the Arpeggiation Mode would be save d with a preset. please

I love the chord chain feature but think it would be useful if you could 'pin' a saved chord chain to a patch. It's great that there's a separate pool of chains you can save to and draw from across patches, but for my workflow I make chord chains very specifically for the patch I'm working on. So switching patches then remembering to switch chains is confusing, especially when performing live. I've also ended up overwriting chains because I forget chains aren't saved with patches.

First sorry for my bad english and maybe my idea is difficult to explain.

With Rhythm patterns and Groove patterns you can configure gate, velocity and delay into a pattern for each step seperately. This is great but also a little uncomfortable (sometimes ;-)).

In most little drum machines like Volca Beats you can use a kind of live mode where you play/drum live on an instrument and it is directly recorded to the sequencer. So in Midicake Arp: wouldn`t it be possible to record and transform a live played rythm (One knop on device or external drum pad) to a rythm/groove pattern? This would really help me to create intuitive rythm patterns on the go(groove patterns I don`t use very much). Hopefully my words make any sense.
