midiDREAMs is a MIDI AUv3 sequencer plugin designed to work like a classic analog-style modular sequencer with 16 virtual sliders and up to 64 steps per pattern. It requires a music app host that supports MIDI AUv3 plugins such as AUM, Audiobus, Loopy Pro, Cubasis, ApeMatrix, etc, and runs within those host apps. You can use it to sequence synth apps running on your iPad or external hardware synthesizers connected with MIDI. Also included is midiDRUMs, a second MIDI AUv3 that is an x0x-grid style drum sequencer. This plugin should be used in host apps such as AUM, AudioBus, etc to sequence drum plugins and external drum machines. midiDREAMs features: MIDI AUv3 sequencer plugin that sends MIDI notes to your favorite app or hardware synth Works with AudioBus, AUM, ApeMatrix, Cubasis and other MIDI AUv3 host apps Up to 64 steps per pattern, with 16 patterns 16 virtual sliders control pitch, velocity, note length, probability 16 buttons each for gate on/off, skip step, last step, pattern Control note speed, sequence direction, set maj/min key and octave, re-sync Ratcheting with 2, 3 or 4 sub-steps per step, also probability based ratcheting per step Unlock pitch / vel / len / prob sequencers to run independently Extensive AU parameter control midiDRUMs features: MIDI AUv3 drum sequencer plugin that sends MIDI notes to your favorite drum app or hardware drum machine Works with AudioBus, AUM, ApeMatrix, Cubasis and other MIDI AUv3 host apps Up to 64 steps per pattern, with 16 patterns 8 parts, set triggers with a 16x8 grid Set velocity and probability per part, per step with 16 virtual sliders Customize kit to send different MIDI note numbers, and even on different MIDI channels AU parameter control
Wonderful, very “tactile”
I’m just getting started with this but it seems like a really well thought out app. I’m particularly looking forward to plugging in the Kong nano and taking it for a spin. I have one question and perhaps I should rtfm a bit more:I see it is possible to change pattern length easily so that one could for instance do a much shorter pattern length on the fly. That sets the ending- could one also set the beginning? I would love it if there were the possibility of setting a pattern loop by holding a beginning and end step- this would mimic similar behavior on sq-1 (probably my fave performance feature on sq-1): imagine that here with all its additional depth!
United StatesThis is great
You can’t get a sequence going any quicker than with this and it still has the essential controls. Quick and easy and fun. A+
United StatesBought by mistake
Happy I did! Meant to buy the other midi sequencer by same dev. This is actually the one I needed and wanted and didn’t know it! AUM + Segments sampler + MIDI Dreams = very happy indeed! Fantastic app
United StatesEnjoying this very much !
I love all of Kerns apps this one knocked it out the park! Thanks 😊
United StatesUseful and Fun
The two things I demand in an iOS music app! Another winner from Art Kerns!

Program Change setting - for use with external synths to recall a specific patch via MIDI, this feature saves the specific program/patch number associated with the sequences. If you set this value, a program change message will be sent when the AU is first loaded up, when a new preset is loaded, or when the PC value is changed again in settings/midi. If it is left/set to "X" (the default, unset value) nothing is sent and things work like they always have. Gate input detection improved - Fixed a bug with gate input. Please note that monophonic gate input is still required, only send one input note at a time, otherwise results are unpredictable. Other small fixes
