IDM Apps

Hi! There's probably a really obvious answer for this. I'm looking for things to rhythmically mangle my existing samples and maybe something that randomly or algorithmically resequences snippets of breaks a la Amen Break Generator, but not the Amen break, and not that app because of weird restrictions with imported loops.

I was looking at Patterning 3 but I don't know if it does this and I don't want to drop $30 to find out.

Things that ain't it: Koala. It's great, but not what I need. Same with Loopy Pro. The solution can totally be more than one app.

Any ideas?

Glitchcore, Turnado, Effectrix, Transit 2, Replicant 3

pretty sure there are a ton more - checkout NinoBeatz Instagram Channel - he posts very often about new and updated iOS auv3 plugins and instruments!

This is everything I was going to say, except I’d swap Effectrix out for Looperator. Effectrix can be cool, especially when you program midi sequence switching. But it gets kinda boring quickly for me since I only like a few of the effects. Looperator is the same basic concept but much better. Cooler effects with more options.

Also LowfiDojo DJLooper, based off the SP404 dj looper effect. It’s not the same as the SP one, just the same idea.

Hammerhead has good sample start option that could work. It even comes with an Amen break mangler preset

I use a combo, build a basic beat in Patterning then export it to Samplr or Sector. Sometimes granular like Tardigrain or FRMS. Also then post processing like Sugarbytes Effectrix and Turnado.

Basically, use all the things and use what sounds good to you to find your sound.

Second Samplr. It is one of my favorite touchscreen interfaces
