I have Blue Arp in my arsenal for a long time, though I haven't used it that much as of yet, but am getting back into it again at the moment. That's why I discovered this thread. I always prefered it over Kirnu Cream.
Having it sit on my desk as a hardware unit would be so great. To have hands on control of the arp while playing gives so much creative freedom and workspeed. I would absolutely buy one.
What is the plan, can it also be fed back in a DAW (FL Studio user myself)? Could I hook my Oxygen controller's midi-out to Blue Arp and Blue arp to my DAW? Or is it only meant to drive hardware synths?
UI wise, do you have any plans lined? I would respectfully suggest a type of UI like Nektar Panorama P1 (see image). The sliders could be the sequencer step controls for instance. And if you make it not sliders like they are in the P1 but perhaps ribbon controllers they could change value with each selected function. Same goes for the knobs: make them endless controllers (P1 has those, and it's great to work with, I own one), so they can pick up on any point when switching functions. I hope I make sense?
I could see this becoming a huge hit with trance or techno producers and live performers worldwide!
Lot's of respect, you are a genius!
regards, Frank
Thank you so much for the comments, which personally I really appreciate seeing and hearing
I realize you have some suggestions to propose, and i would personally invite you to join the BlueARP Implementers Forum. In other terms, the official team in charge of creating the prototype, or in more broad terms, Oleg's personal army of engineers ! Just kidding
We are probably one of the few establishments to propose a more democratic way of being, as in that we usually ask the average members (who usually are music enthusiasts as well as average people like you and me. No huge businessmen running the place ) for our key decisions, and therefore having a very active community and very accessible feedback.
If you are interested to join the Forum, we currently hold a Facebook Group with people interested in the project, who are willing to donate a few minutes (or even hours for the nutcases like me and Oleg ) of their time towards making this dream come true. Check it out here : https://www.facebook.com/groups/313012915779860
In fact, I extend this invitation to anyone interested in the project, and/or are willing to help us. As for myself, i'm the guy in charge of making the PCB and Schematics for the board(s).
Anyways, very pleased to see some feedback on our project
