Features & Capabilities

IMPORTANT: This app is targeted at music production enthusiasts and requires an AUv3 Audio Unit Host to run! It does not do ANYTHING on its own! Also note that this app does not make any sound, it is a controller for other apps that do!

Xequence AU | Pads is an expressive and fully editable (drum) pad surface for use inside AU (Audio Unit) hosts like AUM, Cubasis, apeMatrix, etc.

It features the same, widely acclaimed pad editor that users of Xequence, our advanced MIDI workstation, have grown to love.

HIGHLIGHTS:

Very playable, fully editable drum pads
Comes with 40+ factory drum maps for popular apps / hardware
Custom maps can be created and saved as user presets
Freely adjustable map size, from 1 x 1 all the way to 8 x 8 (64 pads) and anything in between
"Glide" mode for triggering pads by sliding between them
Velocity emulation (via tap position, several modes and curves to choose from)
Configurable global color and MIDI channel
Each pad can also be assigned its own color and/or MIDI channel
"Zoom to pad" feature to make any single pad fullscreen temporarily for more expressive playing
Automatically adapts to nearly any plugin window size or aspect ratio
Extremely fast and light on resources
Unlimited instances
Very robust MIDI and touch implementation, copes easily with aggressive playing styles
Full support for AU presets (and state saving / restoration) in the host

CONTROLLERS:

Any number of MIDI CCs (controllers) can be freely configured and shown as touch ribbons next to the pads
A number of standard controller numbers (such as 74 = Cutoff, 7 = Volume etc.) are included and can be set with a single tap

SPECIAL CONTROLLER MODES:

The following special modes can be set per controller:

DEVICE ROTATION - controller moves according to device rotation
GATE - controller can be set to a default position, and then tapped anywhere to toggle it to that position and back (think "Trance gates")

Please report any issues via our website, we provide quick and comprehensive support!

User Reviews

Really dumb that you can’t set pads to be specific MIDI note *numbers* rather than note names, because this app uses a particular, and unexpected, MIDI note naming convention…which can’t be changed 😒 It’s dumb that different note naming schemes even exist, but either support MIDI note numbers, or allow the convention/scheme to be changed.

I rated this app 3 stars because I don’t know how to use this app. I have garageband ios 12.4.9 and I can’t seem find it. Please make this app compatible for garageband and then I’ll rate higher.
