ArpBud 2 AUv3 MIDI Arpeggiator

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.

I was starting love this arpeggiator, and then I went to look for the latch function. Is this really one of the only arpeggiators with no latch?

Just purchased the bud bundle and Arpbud doesn’t work at all. This is so disappointing. You can’t change any value on the note tab, and all of the other tabs only changes a single random lane regardless of which one you drag on. That is the standalone, as a auv3, simply nothing works at all. Please fix this, is this app even a year old? So disappointing to drop $20 on an app and a big chunk of what I wanted the app for doesn’t work as advertised, or in this case at all. And it’s not an error on my part tried reinstalling, restarting, and did tutorial twice.
