Would be great for in the go music making. What a shame. All I need is a sine wave or square going through a vca. Please update

I think this app is great and it will do just what I need it to which is sending some midi notes over Bluetooth midi to control a DMX lighting controller from my iPad. But I seem unable to send a midi note of C-2, no matter what I do. In my DMX controller midi note 0 corresponds to note C-2. I can send C#-2 but when I pull the octave slider all the way down and pull the note for any of the 8 steps all the way down it will note send the C-2 note. Bump them up one note and they send C#-2. I can work around that but would be nice for that to work. Thanks!

The thing I wish I had known before I bought it: Steps is a single, 8-note sequencer. Each note can repeat up to 8 times, but that’s not the same thing as a 64-note sequencer. That said, it’s nice UI putting together a melodic line on a phone. The dials make an interesting, if not particularly earth-shattering, sequencer interface. Build is solid, got it working with Animoog on Audiobus in just a few minutes.
