Thanks so much for featuring Senode, Jakob! It's also great to see how versatile the landscape of generative sequencers has gotten. I think each app has it's own little twists that supports us to be more creative and get surprised by the sequencer's movements over and over. And while you're mentioning it, I just have put Senode on summer sale until August 14. Enjoy!
Awesome vid Jakob! I don’t really do generative sequencing too much, even though I have them all. I use them more for meditation, literally getting my AUM on!
Besides the great info you provided on the apps, one thing I would like others to take away from this video is that it's ok to change one's thinking and/or workflow in this space. Too often we bunker down in the camp of, "this is the way." Outside of breathing air, eating food, shelter and great sex, change is ok and sometimes allows one to grow by learning new and fun ways to create! The content you shared at the end, MORE PLEASE! Nice to see what others are into besides the primary content shared. LOVE IT!!🥔
Nice potatoes :) Here in California, USA, we have a "green waste" container. All of our kitchen waste goes in there along with stuff from the yard like leaves and the trimmings from my wife's flowers and whatnot (no animal dung allowed). There is a long list of items besides food waste that can go in the green waste container like paper napkins, pizza boxes (not allowed in recycling), and compostable food containers. A truck comes along on "garbage day" and takes the green waste to a composting site. The compost goes to California farms growing food. Two other trucks take the recycling and the ordinary garbage.
Thanks for this excellent video Jakob! I’m a big fan of Fugue Machine and have recently been using Cykle thanks to your mention of it in a prior video. The others you show here look very intriguing and I can’t wait to check them out! Generative sequencing for ambient music is my jam lately✨Thanks again🥔
🥔 Wow! That was unexpected. I’m going to show this to my 3rd grade students this year. I teach a unit called “Small Space Gardening” in which students come up with various plans for people who want to garden but have very little space to do so. Your “patio potato farm” is a perfect example. Thanks for sharing!!! (Oh, and I enjoyed the sequencer part too. I think I’m going to pick up the cykle/polybeat bundle.)
Cykle also has the randomize dice button at the top of each lane, as well as some other buttons to get things going a little quicker. Also like that you’ve added in pricing, and possible sale pricing.
Thank you SO MUCH for putting together this video, Jakob!! You solved a problem I didn't even know I had. I'm very excited to lose way too much time digging into these 🤩🤩🤩
perfect timing for this for putting together some live ideas! appreciate your honesty, thoroughness, positive outlook, deep knowledge, and naturalist. great to use AI for synths and not eating!!! haha - Congrats on potatoes!!!! 🥔
🥔love the potato Story... my wife is into homegrown Stuff too. Of course, as always, the music section was very informative. I wasn't aware of these 3 generative sequencers. can't wait to try them. Thanx Jakob!
I love all these suggestions. I've recently gotten into iPad music-making apps, and I hook it up to my Macbook to control plugins in either Ableton or Bitwig.
Thanks so much for the great information. I picked up Senode and Cykle while I was still watching (I haven’t had much luck with game of life based stuff before). Plus, those potatoes look delicious!
Oh Lordy, love that sound you’re generating ✨ Trying again to get my head around midi. Hope u & yours keeping well 🥔🥔🥔 love potatoes but, unfortunately, they don’t love me. I bet they taste good 🤤
I tried out many sequencers on ios. Generative have never really been my thing however i’ll admit that they sometimes can be super awesome. The only one of the mentioned sequencers i have used is Fugue Machine. What a clasic ❤️ As mentioned I have tried a lot of different sequencers on IOS and non of the have really clicked with me. I feel that they all have missed something. BUT then Drambo 2.0 dropped……. Ohhh man ❤️🙏🏼 We have been wrighting notes to each other about Drambo before and WOW it’s just getting better and better. 🥔 My girlfriend supports me making music but she don’t give a F about sequencers. But she’s a climate and sustainability fan like myself. She is also a gardening entusiast so I talked her in to see your portato segment and she really enjoyed it. We also had home grown potatos for supper last night. But we dont grow them on our balcony because we have an allotment. Although I must admit that your potatos are bigger than ours. But yes. Home grown potatos are very special. BTW im from Copenhagen, Denmark so we have the same climate…allmost 😉.
Such a great video. One of your best. I bought Senode, Cykle and Polybeat because of it. I already had Ooda, Zoa and Fugue Machine. Love this stuff. Let’s see more of your generative pieces and how you set them up.
🥔Interesting that you would add a segment on your (awesome!) homegrown potatoes to the end of this excellent (as usual) video on generative sequencing, as potatoes are rhizomes and generative sequencing is kind of like a rhizomatic process. For a detailed philosophical analysis of this statement, one would reference A Thousand Plateaus by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. This was a really great video, Jakob! I particularly like OODA, but you’ve mentioned some apps that I wasn’t aware of and I’m really looking forward to checking those out (someday maybe when they’re on sale, also useful information that you’ve kindly provided for those of us who have limited resources!). Thanks for the awesome presentation! You are an inspiration!!! 🥔
I’ve come across the term “rhizomatic” before when reading About plant roots. But I honestly didn’t link it to what I was doing in this video. I lucked out on this one I think. Thank you for the reading tip! And thank you so much for the praise! 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔
Thanks, Jacob! I often use agonizer via fugue machine and in second channel I run mutated/shuffled pattern in hammerhead as soundtrack to my streetwalks :) P.s. potatoes rulez! Me and my wife are growing salad at our home. Not so much, but funny as generative music is. Have a nice day too! :)
I just love your balcony with all the plants. Wish I could grow potatoes and vegetables here like I did in the last apartment. But right below this apartment is the laundry room and dryer, the steam from it swirls under and over my balcony and the vegetables I grew the first few years after I moved in tasted like laundry detergent and fabric softener and I hate it. no one in the housing company understands how affected I am here...... The little clay duck, I thought it was your fingers at first and I thought 'what on earth happened to your fingers' or that you grew ginger on the balcony, by the way, that would work just fine. Thanks for the music son and thanks for the clip of your plants. Looks wonderful! 🥰🥔😘🥔😍🥔🌿🥔🪱🥔😋
Sorry to hear about the laundry air outlet, my mom had a similar situation. The detergent smell used to fill the kitchen. 😓 I’d love to grow ginger but I think the climate is to cold. I’m in Sweden. But I might try anyway, see what happens. I love ginger!
Just got cykle and polybeat. Beautiful apps, so easy and fun to use. I’m also a big fan of playbeat 3 which is capable of making awesome glitchy generative beats. 🥔growing your own veggies gets super addictive, you’re balcony looks great!
@Jakob, Next 🥔 Salad you make, see if you can have the patience to take a picture of the 🥔 Salad before you scarf it down 😄 Tasty looking spuds 😋 and great video! I want to get SeNode for sure after seeing this 🙌🏽
Subscribed. This is fairly new to me but getting an iPad this week. I'm looking to take a simple 8 bar melody and have AI give me SUBTLE variations or harmonies based on that melody. Is this something any of the apps you use can do? Or do they mainly start fresh or make bold and dramatic changes or creations? Thx
thanks for some fresh titles, Jakob, will definitely test out those; also i think that Wotja belongs to this list very much - also AUv3/standalone supported. for anyone who is about to jump to this rabbit hole and unfamiliar with it, check it out along with the apps from the video. their engine is a beast and even supports javascript for precise control over the generative composition for drums I would definitely highlight Playbeat - AUv3/standalone as well. Good thing about this one is that it can be fed with user drum samples files, so it can act as a MIDI sequencer as well as a drum machine instrument by its own rights (or both of those at the same time).
10:22 boom moo thanks swedish moo so much ❤. I couldn’t find the probability settings in Senode till now 😂. This along with your videos on Taipei in Gadget helped so much 👏👏👏. 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔
You gotta take 4pockets' Euclidean for a spin too. It's fun for melodies (tap random, go design some instruments that suit it) but it's amazing for drums. 🥔
Loopy Pro is my new favorite DAW iPad app for making music but it doesn't have a midi sequencer so I've been trying everything. For programming midi drums I like Octachron but overall I've been using Gadget as the best midi sequencer. I never liked working with Gadget until I started using Loopy Pro. For automatic sequences I like Riffer.
Hey Jakob, thanks for all the work you do, your videos are really informative and well made. Could you do one on how you link up your Ipads, and what other hardware is involved in your setup?
I’ll put it on the list. But I can give you an answer directly on what I use to link stuff. I always use stuff that supports Ableton link. I did a video about that a while ago. ua-cam.com/video/sxUNRlOqZkI/v-deo.html
Hey Jaqob what’s up brother?? Was wondering if you have a process using your mobile setup integrated with Ableton or Whatever desktop app for the work you release. Like using IDAM, I use one of my iPads like an outboard fx processor and also using a second iPad as a controller and an iPhone because koala is so central to sketching out loops for me. It varies from that but i was just curious because it’s so rare to see any of the iPad guys on UA-cam using IDAM and imo it’s one of the coolest technologies we have access to as Apple users! Sorry I’m off topic, but I’ve been curious about your take on this for a while.
I am 100% iOS based and have been for over 9 years. Everything I record/edit and produce (video, graphics, audio) is done on and published with iDevices. I haven’t used desktop or laptop computers and/or software for my production since 10 years back (well I have done a couple of videos with graphics made on a laptop using magic visuals). This is why you don’t see me cover laptop and computer software. I don’t use Ableton either.m, so I can’t really speak on it. 😅
Small confession, way back in the day I didn't have any synths or plugins that did generative stuff, so I would just pick a scale and play random notes at random intervals with just a metronome. Then I'd bounce to audio and chop into chunks and move it around randomly in a daw and pretend it was complex generative modular sequencing.....
I don't understand this reluctance to "jump between" AU3 and IAA apps. There is no practical difference unless you need multiple instances of the app in one recording. The IAA apps will open to their full windows, which can even be helpful, for multiple reasons. When you're done, you go back to AUM or whatever the host may be, just as you would when you use an AU3 app in a window. Where is the "jumping" that's so onerous or off-putting? Also, I never use the search bar to find things in AUM. I guess that's a good thing, judging by your Alexandernaut miss. I do like your sequencer choices. These are very good apps and you do your usual great work at briefing us on their functions and sharing your experiences. Thanks for your efforts. I do prefer Ooda to Zoa, by the way, but you hit both. Sequencing is a deep part of what I do in music, so I use dozens of them. For example, Thesys still gets me going, years after release. There are many options on the IOS-IPAD platform. Thanks for the potato-farming story. Love potatoes. There are so many ways to use the eventual potatoes, and growing plants inspires me. I grow herbs along with other plants, but I lack the outdoor space for a potato venture. Just as an aside, maybe I missed it, but why have you decided to stay off-camera? Your smiling mug was familiar for years to viewers. So that ice was already broken. I mean, I would do this kind of thing as a voiceover too, if I did videos. But then I'm a goat, which some people find shocking. You're clearly a musical human with no need to hide your face, so the change has been kind of surprising. Either way, thanks for your work.
Great video. Our food scraps go straight to worm farm. What does it do to use your compost system first? 🥔🥔🥔 On generative synths, can any of them use a note you are playing as a seed, so the sequences would match a given chord you are playing live?
I know abut differ but I don’t think I’ve ever tried it out. *checks app list*. Yeah I don’t even own that app. I’ll check it out. Thanks for the reminder! 👊👊
Thanks Jakob but you’re going to have to add a 4th (maybe a 5th if you’re counting Fugue Machine) to your list. Aphelian is without question one of the most elastic, powerful and underrated sequencers available on the iPad.
Hey Jakob thanks for the awesome video! I know you don’t like SynthMaster much , but the sequencer/ arpeggiator inside is pretty amazing.. are there any other AU sequencers like it? I really like being able to preset a sequence then hold the note on my external keyboard, while altering notes to change key. All live!
I don’t know if the USB is class compliant. But if it is, you could connect it to your and iPad with the help of a USB hub. Otherwise you could go the old school way and get a MIDI interface for the iPad. The Hydra has DIN5 MIDI ports.
I was not aware of the three mentioned. Senode is on sale at the time I am typing this. I bought it right away. I wish for it on Windows. I use Xynthesizer, Axon 2, and Nodebeat. I have owned a license for Nodebeat since the original version maybe what, a decade ago now?
Yes! And I never use the same setup, depending on what type of midi connections the hardware gear needs. Sometimes it’s USB midi, other times it’s DIN5 midi and in those cases I’ll either use the connectors on my Steinberg sound-interface with a midi splitter, or when I’m portable I’ll use an iRig MIDI 2.
When using multiple generative sequencers on different tracks at the same time, it becomes useful to have a global quantiser the notes go through before reaching the instruments, even more useful if this quantiser can be sequenced itself (like the chord track on the awesome Oxi One sequencer). Do you know of any apps which can do this? Thanks!
OF COURSE NODEBEATS SUPPORTS AUM WHAT AN IDIOT!!! 🤣Just kidding! Please don't start over again. -- Great video as always. I've just gotten into bringing generative sequencers into my work and these are some that I hadn't seen before. Very informative. Thank you, Jakob!
Bokashi is some powerful stuff! (Could be another name for AUM ;-) ) My wife do what you do, heavily inspired by Sara Bäckmo (ua-cam.com/users/sarabackmo?app=desktop). Highly recommended - but I would assume you already know about her. Thank you for another great video.
I'm packing links baby!

Thanks so much for featuring Senode, Jakob! It's also great to see how versatile the landscape of generative sequencers has gotten. I think each app has it's own little twists that supports us to be more creative and get surprised by the sequencer's movements over and over. And while you're mentioning it, I just have put Senode on summer sale until August 14. Enjoy!
Is the AUv3 capability an in-app purchase?
@@Steve.Dennis looks like plug-in functionality is excluded after buying the app
@@Steve.Dennis yes
I'm a big fan of senode, it's awesome having access to a powerful generative sequencer without needing a PC or special hardware!
Awesome vid Jakob! I don’t really do generative sequencing too much, even though I have them all. I use them more for meditation, literally getting my AUM on!
Although not AUv3, Polyphase is definitely one of my faves. It also - like Xynthesizr - has a really fantastic built-in synth 🥔 👍
Besides the great info you provided on the apps, one thing I would like others to take away from this video is that it's ok to change one's thinking and/or workflow in this space.

What are the odds you put this out just today 🔥
Thanks so much for the great information. I picked up Senode and Cykle while I was still watching (I haven’t had much luck with game of life based stuff before).
Plus, those potatoes look delicious!
Thanks a lot for your recommendations, Jakob! I regularly enjoy your videos and music! 🥔I also purchased zoa, cykle, polybeat and senode.

Using the golden ratio pace settings in Zoa produces some intriguing results. Great video as always.
I just love your balcony with all the plants. Wish I could grow potatoes and vegetables here like I did in the last apartment.
But right below this apartment is the laundry room and dryer, the steam from it swirls under and over my balcony and the vegetables I grew the first few years after I moved in tasted like laundry detergent and fabric softener and I hate it. no one in the housing company understands how affected I am here......
The little clay duck, I thought it was your fingers at first and I thought 'what on earth happened to your fingers' or that you grew ginger on the balcony, by the way, that would work just fine.

👊
I loved the iOS content... but your generative husby patatis farming is the best feature of all 🥔
Amazingly entertaining video as always Jakob! 🥔
Just noticed your link to “Different Drummer” actually leads to OODA btw
Thank you Jakob for your videos!! A question ¿what do u think about “Xequence 2” (not generative…that I think 🤔)
Cool vid. My personal 2 favourite apps for this are Polyphase and Poly2.
Fantastic video, helps me a lot! Thank you sooo much
10:22 boom moo thanks swedish moo so much ❤.
I couldn’t find the probability settings in Senode till now 😂.
This along with your videos on Taipei in Gadget helped so much 👏👏👏.
🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔
Great video Jakob, do these apps work in GarageBand also since they all talk about being Auv3 compatible…?
I’m using ZOA and OODA, haven’t played with the other ones… yet 🥔
🥔 Great video. Just bought Senode. 🥔
So happy to hear from you on this! My life just has taken a positive turn on account of this! Thank you!
Happy to hear that! ☀️💛
Wow, good stuff, great review and overview!
You gotta take 4pockets' Euclidean for a spin too. It's fun for melodies (tap random, go design some instruments that suit it) but it's amazing for drums. 🥔
I think I have it, just forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder! 👊
Generative is my favorite style of sequencer.

Hello from down under, Australia.
Greetings Aussie! 💋
Hey Jakob, thanks for all the work you do, your videos are really informative and well made. Could you do one on how you link up your Ipads, and what other hardware is involved in your setup?

When instrument apps come with decent sequencing function, I put them on midi channel as sequencers
Cheers Jakob interesting insight there for sequencing. Have you tried New Path sequencer app yet.? Looks interesting but standalone only for now.
Hey Jaqob what’s up brother?? Was wondering if you have a process using your mobile setup integrated with Ableton or Whatever desktop app for the work you release.

Then I'd bounce to audio and chop into chunks and move it around randomly in a daw and pretend it was complex generative modular sequencing.....
I’ve done similar stuff myself. Anyway that the work gets done in a satisfactory way is legit to me. 👊
I don't understand this reluctance to "jump between" AU3 and IAA apps. There is no practical difference unless you need multiple instances of the app in one recording. The IAA apps will open to their full windows, which can even be helpful, for multiple reasons. When you're done, you go back to AUM or whatever the host may be, just as you would when you use an AU3 app in a window.
Where is the "jumping" that's so onerous or off-putting?
Also, I never use the search bar to find things in AUM. I guess that's a good thing, judging by your Alexandernaut miss.
I do like your sequencer choices. These are very good apps and you do your usual great work at briefing us on their functions and sharing your experiences. Thanks for your efforts.
I do prefer Ooda to Zoa, by the way, but you hit both.
Sequencing is a deep part of what I do in music, so I use dozens of them. For example, Thesys still gets me going, years after release. There are many options on the IOS-IPAD platform.
Thanks for the potato-farming story. Love potatoes. There are so many ways to use the eventual potatoes, and growing plants inspires me. I grow herbs along with other plants, but I lack the outdoor space for a potato venture.
Just as an aside, maybe I missed it, but why have you decided to stay off-camera? Your smiling mug was familiar for years to viewers. So that ice was already broken.
I mean, I would do this kind of thing as a voiceover too, if I did videos. But then I'm a goat, which some people find shocking.
You're clearly a musical human with no need to hide your face, so the change has been kind of surprising.
Either way, thanks for your work.
What is the app that all the sequencers are routed through from the beginning?
Great video.
Our food scraps go straight to worm farm. What does it do to use your compost system first? 🥔🥔🥔
On generative synths, can any of them use a note you are playing as a seed, so the sequences would match a given chord you are playing live?
I like the potato clip just as much as the sequencer content! 🥔
Hi Jakob 🥔, I love using ZOA and OODA, but the one I use the most for generative music is definitely Riffer 👍🏻
I know abut differ but I don’t think I’ve ever tried it out. *checks app list*. Yeah I don’t even own that app. I’ll check it out. Thanks for the reminder! 👊👊
Riffer is pretty legit. Especially since it got a bit fat update like a year and a half ago or something like that 👍🏼
Looks Delicious 🥔 but you’ve inspired me to go on a mid-night raid to the fridge now 😔
The new Neon synth on ios looks killer
Thanks, I didn't know about Senode and Zoa. Cheers, 🥔
Thanks for making this!
I love this video! Thanks a lot! 🥔💕✨
I recently stumbled onto Midinous (on Steam and have been steadily falling in love with it. Im curious if it works with AUV3...
Thanks Jakob but you’re going to have to add a 4th (maybe a 5th if you’re counting Fugue Machine) to your list. Aphelian is without question one of the most elastic, powerful and underrated sequencers available on the iPad.
Thank you for the tip! 👊
Fantastic stuff Jakob. I didn’t know about any of these sequencers except for fugue machine. By far the best is the potato sequencer. 🥔
Sounds delish!
Hey Jakob thanks for the awesome video!
I know you don’t like SynthMaster much , but the sequencer/ arpeggiator inside is pretty amazing.. are there any other AU sequencers like it? I really like being able to preset a sequence then hold the note on my external keyboard, while altering notes to change key. All live!
I’ll have to look into that sequencer more. Nothing comes to mind right away though. 😅
Congrats! - 🥔
Awesome videos dude! 🥔
Is there a way I can use an iPad to sequence Hydrasynth Explorer? What do I need to make this happen?
I don’t know if the USB is class compliant. But if it is, you could connect it to your and iPad with the help of a USB hub. Otherwise you could go the old school way and get a MIDI interface for the iPad. The Hydra has DIN5 MIDI ports.
I knew about 🥔🥔DA and Z🥔A, and had heard a bit about Fugue Machine but everything else here is new to me!
...Looks like I've got some exploring to do.
Have fun exploring!
@@JakobHaq Senode just went on sale, too. (Until Aug 14, according to the app page.)
Great timing!
🥔🥔🥔
Unrelated question: Any way to sync Synth One with Logic on Mac?
cheers!
Poly 2 and Polyphase
I am into sweet Potato as it's a healthier choices 🥔🍠 ... However close enough ... Nothing beats homegrown produce
I was not aware of the three mentioned. Senode is on sale at the time I am typing this. I bought it right away. I wish for it on Windows. I use Xynthesizer, Axon 2, and Nodebeat. I have owned a license for Nodebeat since the original version maybe what, a decade ago now?
Newb q: Can you explain how to use AUM to get cykle to play software synths on iOS?
Not much to comment, apart for "very informative" and 🥔🥔🥔!
Do you do any hardware sequencing from ipad?
Yes! And I never use the same setup, depending on what type of midi connections the hardware gear needs. Sometimes it’s USB midi, other times it’s DIN5 midi and in those cases I’ll either use the connectors on my Steinberg sound-interface with a midi splitter, or when I’m portable I’ll use an iRig MIDI 2.
wow lovely video take a lote 4 all this precious information, a will teste SENODE and at bonus now a know what do whit my Bokshi 🥔 ❤
Merci , very useful , tu es le meilleur .
Nice!!! 👍🏻 Little note: the link to ‘different drummer’ is not correct…
Thanks for checking. I’ve fixed it now! 👍
Aum is a must if you iOS music 🎶
Perfect 🥔
🥔🦆 Yeah Boiiiieee!
When using multiple generative sequencers on different tracks at the same time, it becomes useful to have a global quantiser the notes go through before reaching the instruments, even more useful if this quantiser can be sequenced itself (like the chord track on the awesome Oxi One sequencer). Do you know of any apps which can do this? Thanks!
Maybe not exactly what you're looking for but I often run midi through midiGATEs to get excellent control during live performance
@@GavinskisTutorials Thanks, I'll check this out!
Anyone know which app should I get for polyrhythms ? I tried all the apps including the new polybud, they only do polymeters.
Have you checked Pollybeat? It’s like cycle but for drums. Link I’m pinned comment and description.
@@JakobHaq omg it does polyrhythms!
I love cycle the best. 10-22-22
Senode is now Universal as of 9/01/22.
Yay! 👊
OF COURSE NODEBEATS SUPPORTS AUM WHAT AN IDIOT!!! 🤣Just kidding! Please don't start over again. -- Great video as always. I've just gotten into bringing generative sequencers into my work and these are some that I hadn't seen before. Very informative. Thank you, Jakob!
Fuguee potatoes 🥔 are zoa good.
Drambo, Drambo, Drambo
Can you eat the potato greens also? 🥔🥔🥔🥔
Woop woop - everything will sprout in Your worm farm too, if you eat organic…. Then all the sprouts will be too. Container gardening is fun
☀️🌧🌱🌿🍀🌾🥗💛
Bokashi is some powerful stuff! (Could be another name for AUM ;-) )
My wife do what you do, heavily inspired by Sara Bäckmo (ua-cam.com/users/sarabackmo?app=desktop). Highly recommended - but I would assume you already know about her.
Thank you for another great video.
we need potato generative sequencer on iOS🥔
