ArpBud 2 is a MIDI arpeggiator application that enables users to create distinctive arpeggiation patterns and arpeggiate their preferred software or hardware synthesizers. Distinct from conventional up/down style arpeggiators, ArpBud 2 offers users the ability to design unique patterns with an unlimited number of steps. Each step can be customized with parameters such as note interval, velocity, octave, ratchet, gate, and probability. Additionally, ArpBud 2 features a robust randomizer that allows users to randomize any step within any mode. Within a project, users can create an unlimited number of patterns. Each pattern can be assigned distinct note rates and swing values. MIDI CC messages from other applications can be utilized to modify the playing pattern. From the settings menu, users can assign a MIDI CC number for pattern changes, specify the maximum number of interval numbers, configure randomizer settings, and enable knob control. ArpBud 2 reacts to pattern changes and step edits in real time during live performances, making it an exceptional live performance tool as well as an arp design tool. ArpBud 2 can be utilized in standalone mode, IAA (Inter-App Audio) mode, Audiobus mode, AUv3 Audio Unit plugin mode, and supports Ableton Live. It is important to note that ArpBud 2 is a MIDI effect tool and does not generate sound independently. It requires both MIDI input and output connections to function effectively. Here’s how to use ArpBud 2: 1. Connect a MIDI source: To ArpBud 2, connect a MIDI source such as a MIDI keyboard, chord sequencer, or any other MIDI application. This source will feed ArpBud 2’s sequencer. 2. Connect ArpBud 2 to an Audio app: Connect ArpBud 2 to any MIDI-compatible Audio application. 3. Arm the sequencer: If using the standalone version or Audiobus/IAA version, press the play button located on the top right corner of ArpBud 2. If using the AUv3 plugin, press the play button on your host application. }

I can’t understand the previous review. The arpeggiator is great and super flexible. If you don’t understand how it works in AUM juat watch some tutorial. Super easy.

ArpBud 2 is my main arpeggiator. For basic arpeggiation and lets you choose the notes and scales (and octaves), I make great arps out my chord progressions. It’s does justice for trap music

Killer app with endless possibilities ,i don’t understand the one star review from users saying that the app is not working on beatmaker….beatbaker on auv’3 MIDI is buggy as hell and no MIDI auv’3 app has worked properly on beatmaker for me . ArpBud is working fine with a proper setup.I would rate the app with five stars but the luck of a latch function on the auv’3 parameters is missing and I think it is a vital option for a proper arpeggiator.i hope the developer to add this option on the future.

This arpeggiator has potential. The probability, randomization options, and limitless steps are shining points. I’ve been using several instances inside of Loopy Pro, however they have started to crash constantly to the point of uselessness. Furthermore, as someone mentioned in a previous review, this arpeggiator has no latch which is a basic functionality of any good arpeggiator. The developer responded to the previous review by saying to activate latch, turn the gate all the way up. I’m afraid that this does not perform a latch function, but rather holds the note through until a note off is received and is aptly named TIE inside the app. For clarification, latch is a functionality which allows an arpeggiator to temporarily remember the midi note(s) you just played and apply them to the arpeggiator. The difference between latch and a hold function is the hold remembers every note you play until you turn it off like riding the sustain pedal. Latch forgets the previous note(s) each time you play new ones. This is a powerful function as you can, for example, play a chord into the arpeggiator, let go of the keyboard whilst that chord is still arpeggiating, reposition your hands and perhaps change some some your instruments parameters such as filter cutoff-modulation-etc, play a new chord, and hear the arpeggiator smoothly switch to the new tonality. ArpBud 2, unfortunately, does not do this.

too bad, it is good but it doesn't work like a standard synth arpeggiator that only needs you set BMP for the arpeggio tempo and starts arpeggio everytime keys are pressed. It needs that you click start/play on you host and when you press keys arpeggio will start depending on where beat you are (so not always from start). Not very useful live unless you use click sync and I don't. It will be more useful if you could only set BMP (I use to set it live with tap funcion syncing with real drummer) and play arpeggio always from start when key is pressed.

This is amazing! Very intuitive to use and works so so well with the other synths. Plus the addition of Ratchets along with other variables is great! Exactly what I was looking for!

Nifty AU arpeggiator to create unique patterns. Lots of new features being added, works great with the developer’s other apps too!

These apps are great, and they are being upgraded almost daily. Can’t beat that. Not sure why one person gave them a 1 Star, but I’d being willing to bet it was error on their part not the app.
