Ah okay, I thought it was a typo earlier. It is BGR not BRG. :)

I've used Peacock Color Picker when doing my skins for Blue a couple of years back.The cool thing was that it allowed you to select a certain colour within a photo and match its code - so it was dead easy to come close to some other synths' colour schemes. Any similar program would work like a charm. There are plenty available online. Once you manage to modify the default GUI, it's dead easy to finish another one... and so on :)

Still the best arp/seq around ;)

GrayWolf, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS AWESOME PLUGIN!

But now I write with a possible bug.... on the 2.2.3 version, it seems there is a problem with playing chords. Sometimes a beat just gets skipped. To demonstrate, if you set it to play the whole chord on all 16 beats with 8th note sync, like every 14th chord will get dropped. It's not always the same place in the pattern... different on every loop.

Hi. Are you play live or recorded? Depends on several things.
If you play live - quantization may be the reason.
You need to press a chord a little before the beat starts, otherwise bluearp won't catch the keys you pressed.
If it's not the case, describe it in more detail. A sample project will be freat help also.

Probably some floating bug in erp engine, I had seldom missing notes with milti-instance bluearp project. Will debug it more carefully.

Hello,

Can someone direct me in how to use Blue Arp inside Logic Pro X ?

I already have copied the Blue Arp component file to its right folder.

Just don't know how to call it and configure it inside Logic Pro.

Thank you.

Same here. Chrome blocked it as it saw it as malicious.

Just wanted to say that I just discovered this arp and it is fantastic. It does everything I want in an arp and makes the complaints I have about many built-in synth arps totally irrelevant now. And it's so much better having an arp outside of the instrument as you can switch to other synths while keeping the same arp rhythm. So thanks so much for making it!

Some nice skins posted above - Sorry i haven't read this very long thread but how do we load downloaded skins? I guess it won't matter once you release 2.4 if it has the above ones (the white and the grey). But in the mean time I wouldn't mind downloading that grey one if possible, but don't see a download and not sure how to install it once downloaded...

Update: BlueARP v2.2.4, Windows & OSX
http://graywolf2004.net/wp/?page_id=35

There are a lot of minor changes. I'm working on a complicated performance (trying to make at least the same good stuff as my "Magic scales part1)" and fixing some issues as I encounter them.
So far what I remember changed in v2.2.4:

1. Bank select method for chain. Now configurable (in MENU -> Settings),
options available: ctlr 0, ctlr 32, ctlr 0+32.
For example, Sylenth 1 uses "ctlr 0", while my hardware Kurzweil PC3 needs "ctrl 0+32".

2. All "MENU -> Settings" values are now stored within a bank, not ini file as it was before.
They all now have (B) mark - bank-related.
Cause one may need to configure them separately for different instances.

3. Fixed bug for "OCTAVE" and "KEY SELECT" automation, reported by jmonzani1.
Trying to automate them created a mess. This was an aftermath of making it polyphonic.
Now it's possible to set monophonic values with automation (as it was before introducing poly feature).

4. skins by studio4 included

5. Some minor fixes in MIDI engine

Forgot to mention, last but bot least:

6. You can swap steps by clicking LEDs on led bar under the screen.

7. Improved Copy/paste functionality for programs and chains

PS As usual I was in hurry and missed a bug (fine velocity stopped working after I changed it to bank-related parameter). Fixed and updated the archive (2016-11-05 07:50 GMT).
