Update: TC-11 Multi-Touch Synthesizer v1.3 Released


Bit Shape have released version 1.3 of TC-11 – their full-featured multi-touch synth for the iPad. In addition to minor fixes and improvements, some significant new features are included.

Version 1.3 adds a new area to the Patch view: Options. These settings are patch-specific, and saved as part of your patch. You can ‘Suppress First Touch,’ which allows the first touch to be muted while still generating controller data. This allows ‘stretchy’ patches to ignore the unused touch so they can focus on the sound of the other voices.

Also new is the ability to create ‘Custom Grids’ for the patch. All three axis (X, Y, and radial) can be set to a specific number of divisions, and checkered for easy viewing. Users who create scales or divisions of the screen with the Sequencer will can now create a matching grid view for their patches.

The update also brings an interface overhaul to the work area of the app. The Load / Save, Patch, and Settings views have been re-imaged to match the synth object styling. A new, clearer font makes flying through parameter controllers easier on the eyes. In the Performance view, two controllers now have updated performance representations. Time-based controllers show an animated line shooting from one touch to another, and voiced rotation controllers show a large arc connecting the voice to its comparison touch.

New Features:

  • Customizable x, y, and radial grids for individual patches
  • Mute first touch patch option

 
Improvements:

  • New interface elements
  • Patch preview easier to grab, highlights when grabbed
  • Override display controllers all / none buttons
  • New controller animations for timing and rotation controllers
  • More vibrant colors in outline display style

 
Bug Fixes:

  • Textfield value entry issues resolved
  • Issue with sequencer start position range fixed
  • Fixed custom drawing inaccuracies

  1. Great update

    But I still feel that there needs to be a way to paste samples and mangle them with the same filters and controls

    The app is overwhelming and it’s difficult to get good sounds right out of the box. The presets are meh at best

    Easy to get turned off looking at all the parameters!!!
    Still it’s powerful as a live performance instr and the sounds should come from outside
    Combination of Alchemy and sunrizer and animoog…. All in one with awesome sounds!


  2. I agree with “evolutionaryartsdotorg” hands down the TC-11 and Grain Science are really the best synthesis combination on the app store!


  3. yeah, looks good. i had this app on the day it came out via promocode from the dev, it is very much worth the asking price, for it is a synth from the future. if u love multitouch and powerful synthesis, then this is your baby.
    go check out tim webbs review on youtube for in depth analasis and smitematter has written nicely about it too. along with grain science, this is by far the deepest synth in the app store too, plus it has an intense visual aspect not to be ignored!
