![]() My hunch is that some heavy innovations in logic are at our doorstep, but that the majority of computer science students have jumped on the raft too far downstream – that everything is actually not so simple as it seems and there are alternative base architectures.Īll of this touches on a really fascinating debate. But what about the efficiency of math in modelling circuitry? I think that there is a serious subject for inquiry there, one that I wish I was involved in. Myself, I don’t want to think too hard about my OS and I believe that putting the end user first often puts the devs in difficult positions. I imagine it is difficult to juggle the snapchat crowd with the “every time something new comes out I max it and haunt the forums with future feature requests instead of making music” crowd. I watched DOS turn into windows and I watched windows fail, over and over and over…Apple was/is (always has been) such a breath of fresh air. I was around for the apple II computer, just as I was around when I had my 286 running my bbs on my 14.4 k modem. Apple is juggling a million things and succeeding in a big way. ![]() I think that some of this is quite mistaken on very serious level though. I am used to the complaints about apple and I understand. That’s not to say that one shouldn’t consider what you are suggesting. I get it in a way, but all of these considerations are aiming at a very saturated demographic at the moment. It would be nice to own all of this, but I kind of like the idea of being a bit minimal, but also the idea that other people aren’t minimal, while I am and that makes us different which is good. I am not so taken with the eurorack lust myself, as I wasn’t too taken with Elektron’s stuff or the OP-1. They could pay a licensing fee and make nest Audulus inside the Crow Intelligence or maybe the user groups could work together for creating tools to create consistent standards for node-based patchers in a eurorack environment. There is definitely something to be said for being able to detach the usb cord then continue to use the patch one put together with a crazy generative sequence inside it.Ĭandidly I think there is an opportunity to parter with bird kids here since Audulus 3 is obviously more developed than the Crow Intelligence patcher software, and has a huge module library. While is constantly under the gun to patch issues created by iOS updates and maintaining connectivity with systems like au3, IAA and audio bus for many different use cases of the Audulus user base, Bird Kids just has to stay USB compliant, since all the processing is hosted by the module and you are just editting with a keyboard and mouse. Audulus is priced so that anyone can afford it and primarily distributed through the app store, where the Crow intelligence patcher software is bespoke to it’s hardware and made with an eye to interact with the outside world. There is a big difference in price point and distribution. The key differences between ipad, audulus, ES-8 combo and Crow Intelligence more than just knobs, its also the sheer number of connectors as well as the opportunity to optimize performance in a way that’s impractical to do while apple is playing software intermediary. Could you partner with MIT and pose hard questions about processing limitations? Makes me think of attracting some serious mathematicians. I think the one big question could be, “what is stopping the best coders in eurosynthland from designing modules in for Audulus,” which is probably on par with, “what could possibly be done so that the CPU load for patching in Audulus becomes better than anything else out there by a significant margin?” ![]() Very soon, I think that money rather than size will be the limit of processing power (iPhone X), so we will probably see the iPad start to become a preferred interface for music production/performance. ![]() But everyone has all their unique needs and interests so I am sure there will be people who will want this.īut it also brings up the notion that heading toward Audulus working as an AUv3 on an iPad might be a way to futureproof the software. ![]() I get that the idea of having knobs and information on a control surface while working is attractive, as I was discussing on the other thread, but for myself, I am not looking for another eurorack module as a controller, nor am I interested in forking out all that dough for it. I can see how you can pitch the idea “anything is possible,” but as you all know from years of developing Audulus, bringing what is possible into actual use takes a long time to develop. I don’t know, I get a lame vibe from this presentation, no offense to Birdkids. ![]()
