BeatStep Pro Feature Request Thread

[alexdead]

- an Undo function
- the possibility to erase all step of a drum element in one time (just clear the paterne of the snare for exemple)

[seabearho]

First off, Beatstep Pro is awesome! Its both changed the way I write music and the way I play live, all for the better.

As a feature request, it would be nice to have the ability to send Midi CCs from each sequencers' knobs as an alternate to their default behaviour. This would give the ability to control synth behavior via midi(oscillator wave shape, filter cutoff frequency, device volume, etc.) while at the same time controlling sequencer behaviour (note sequences, default looper behaviour, sequencer length). Can you imagine having an additional 16 CCs per instrument for a total of 64 CCs for the Beatstep pro?

 +1 on:
1. Ability to shift patter forward/backward
2. Undo

Additionally, there are some cool features on the Moog Mother 32 sequencer I'd love to see in the Beatstep Pro. The "ratchet" feature is pretty cool (it subdivides a step into multiple triggers).

I'm kind of astounded Arturia still hasn't added the ability to shift a pattern forward or backwards. That seems like a pretty glaring omission.

Changing the behavior of randomness:

The random button can range from -100 to +100.
Positive values only add events to the pattern (proportionally).
Negative values only subtract events (proportionally).

Especially on drums, I think that would make a more interesting control for randomness.

Most needed feature:
+1 For Nudge pattern left or right.  BSP needs this functionality for better realtime recordings

next:
+1 UNDO
+1 A way to choose random probability applied just to notes, velocity or CV in different way ( too much I know...)

Cheers...

+ 100 = nudging patterns left/right

+ 1 = Polyrythmic drumpatterns

+1 = Flam/ratchet function

touch a rotary controller and simultaneous touch a notepad to program it's note!

change the value of more than 1 16 rotary controller at once. I will explain this in a new post later.

and more than 1 midi channel possible for the drum channel, OBVIOUSLY grrr.

Open up the software to the public, with an SDK, like someone here suggested. Like korg with it's volca sample. Like novation launchpad.
That would save this product, and everybody that payed for it.

Reading the self back-patting advertisement that is the manual makes me kind of angry. In it's currents state, any old dated electribe is a more advanced sequencer, period.
Because that's what they actually made, an extra limited legacy electribe with modern looks. My 1981 yamaha drummachine is a midi-settings miracle compared to this. Long live 'innovation'.

Arturia: don't just say it's innovative, Make it innovative.
We are waiting for firmware updates.

Shift pattern left/right. (First step will be 2nd, 2nd will be 3rd etc.)

[Beat Masta]

SHIFTING/NUDGING NOTES LEFT/RIGHT

RATCHETING(!!!!)

Even the damn Matrixbrute has ratcheting, why haven't they implemented it yet in the BSP?!? This has been requested SO god damn many times, still nothing. Aaaaaaaargh.....

[giovomal]

-  settings MIDI channels for the drum sequencer pad!

[turbo_kev]

Please add pattern chaining SAVE
and a Ratchet feature

cheers

Allow sync of Trans Link and Pattern Link between Master and Slave Beatstep Pros

[trigger303]

+1 Polyrythmic drumpatterns!!

Even now BeatStepPro is really useful gear...but it'll be perfect for me if this is implemented.

+1 on PATTERN NUDGE

+1 on COPY/PASTE bars in a sequence
Or just duplicate the first bar's pattern until the new "Last Step"

Copying a single drum part from another pattern would also be nice to have

[evilmadness]

It's needed a User Remote Script
