Patterning 3

New Features Include:

• AUv3 Support: Patterning 3 now operates seamlessly as an Audio Unit v3 (AUv3) plugin, integrating into DAWs like Logic, AUM, and Loopy Pro. This major upgrade opens up new realms of production possibilities, allowing Patterning 3 to be part of a broader sound design workflow.
• Parametric Swing: A revolutionary approach to musical swing, Patterning 3’s Parametric Swing allows for the creation of beats with a unique, dynamic feel—from slightly off-kilter to wildly erratic. Unlike traditional drum machine swing that only offsets every other 16th note, Parametric Swing lets you tilt and curve time in unprecedented ways.
• Pattern Fills: Add a new layer of performance dynamics. With the press of a button, users can inject an alternate "fill" version of their pattern, perfect for adding dramatic flair or transitioning between sections of a song.
• Modulation Sources: Expand your sonic palette with new LFOs, Randomizers, and Velocity Macros that allow parameters to pulse, evolve, and react in complex ways.  
• FX Track: Automate and modulate master effects, including delay, reverb, distortion, and EQ. New controls like EQ stereo spread, Distortion Res, and a master compressor have also been added.
• ALT: Quickly access advanced parameters, modulation sources, and assignments, along with quick mute/solo controls, copy/paste, and more.
• Nudge and Quantize: Apply timing offsets to each step or automatically when recording to create organic, off-the-grid beats. Alternatively, use Quantize to align your beats to the grid.

• New Instrument Effects: The sampler now includes Ring Modulation and Distortion for each track, adding new textural possibilities.
• Timeline Updates: A reworked timeline interface facilitates quicker song creation, looping of sections, and switching between multiple timelines.
• Improved Workflow: Enhancements in sequencing, editing, automation access, and MIDI Learn make your workflow smoother than ever. File management using the FILES app provides easier access to your files and samples.  New color themes for customizing app appearance.

Patterning 3 continues to support indispensable features like quick pattern recording, parameter automation and randomization, and full song arrangement. The built-in effects, direct export to an Ableton Live Set, MIDI connectivity, and access to a library of 650+ user-created drum kits remain integral to its comprehensive production environment.

With Patterning 3, the future of beat-making is not just about creating rhythms; it's about discovering new musical landscapes.

“I had thought all my iOS drum box desires were satisfied, but I was wrong. There’s room for another and this is it. Patterning has many unique strengths, and beats any hardware drum machine when it comes to polyrhythms and evolving patterns. It’s as mesmerizing to watch as it is to listen to.” - Sound on Sound
