Neewbie Question

[gregorjolly]

I've recently purchased the iMS-20 and iElectribe apps for iPad and am blown away with how fantastic they are. For the price it is unbelievable - great work.

Now my question...
(i did try searching first to avoid an unnecessary post & online manual)
When creating a pattern, I have altered the Synth - by basically playing around and fiddling until I got the desired sound. I then add drums etc so I am happy with my pattern.
Next I want to copy all these settings in my pattern exactly - so that I can perform minor tweaks to the drum section - and so on till I build my track.
When I attempt to use the 'copy pattern' from source to destination, it seems to copy my drum pattern fine, but not my synth settings.
Am I missing something obvious? apologies if so.

As I am just fumbling around to get my desired synth, it is impossible to replicate this across patterns unless there is some kind of copy/paste.

Any help is much appreciated.
thanks.

To clarify, I am having this issue in iMS-20.
thanks.

Hi G,

I often have the same problem: For example, I copy pattern 5 to 6, modify it, and on playing I get pattern 5 twice.
Only more than regular saving and loading the template seemed to help.
Copy pattern 5 to 6, save the template, load it again and check if pattern 6 is thetre. Modify pattern 6, save the template, load it again and check if the changes are still there, et cetera.
I suspect it is a problem with the available memory on the iPad. When I think about it in time, I use iFullStat to clean the memory before playing iMS20.

Save the synth patch by name, then you can reload it for any pattern.

aahh. As soon as you've said that the penny drops... I realise it's the 'Sound Preset' section - save via here by name and it can be reloaded for any pattern...

many thanks xmlguy.
