I mean ..amazing for a free app [ so tip the dev folks! ] I will likely stick to ReelBus and Tape Pro though. more options/degradation possibilities. But really loving the 'chew' function on this. Sounds like real tape chew. As crazy detailed as your walkthrough was you did overlook the Wow and Flutter Sync buttons that allow you to sync to the Tape Speed itself or Sync to quarter notes, eighth notes etc. A petty and minor observation, indeed, but it isn't a Gavinski vid without all the deets. ..an aces one, at that.

@@GavinskisTutorials to be honest pretty much everything, it is far more versatile if you consider the effects and the way better implemented velocity curve. Even the sound, feels rivaling to me... and even though Ravenscroft has fixed their UI, for the longest time it bothered me every time I had to use it on the iPhone because of how bad the UI-UX was. Luckily, it’s better now... but it still doesn’t compare to Pure Piano in that regard. When it comes to sound, do you prefer Ravenscroft then? I didn’t notice much of a difference especially because of the EQs on both : seems like you can shape both sounds quite a lot so sound isn’t what defines this for me as at least I find them equivalent in that regard. The effect pad on Pure Piano is so useful tough. On the other hand, Ravenscroft crashes a lot... I still haven’t used much Pure piano, at least not in comparison but I have yet to experience a crash whereas with Ravenscroft it was almost a daily thing. Last, well, it’s cheaper... much cheaper if you buy it now for 14 bucks, while on 50% sale. I’m curious as to why you prefer Ravenscroft !

I have barely compared them yet as I just got pure piano. But basically when I ran this lioop from Paino Motifs through them both, Ravenscroft was the clear winner, even using the EQs. Piano Motifs use a lot of sustain, and it seemed to be, at least partly, something about the quality of the sustained note sound, which was much more resonant on Ravenscroft than any of the Pure Piano settings. Again, just an initial impression, but if you have Piano Motifs, try it and see.

But yeah, Ravenscroft does crash occasionally, though not every day for me, no way, and it definitely has issues wotjh Polyphony which cause it to work badly with Polyphase, so I am keen to compare how these two handle Polyphase.

Thank you again for making a video tutorial on this app. Pianos always sounds great with old Reel to Reels. I'm going to overuse this app for sure. Loving the demo at the end as well. I like switching between the tape speeds, it sounds like a broken microcasette player. You mentioned in the beginning The Disintegration Loops. My question is - is there a way to automatically have the variance go from 0.00 to 1.00 gradually (even better - with you choosing the time it takes it to reach 1.00) so it can create the same degrading tape effect that's happening in TDL? Like, creating a loop, run Chow on it, go take a shower and come back with a completely ruined music loop?

Sounds good. But I laugh every time I hear about Lo fi stuff. I remember a time not long ago when everyone was ready to put out lots of cash for CD sound to get rid of all if those sounds. So one day we want crystal clear, crisp sound and then suddenly we buy electronics to bring the noise back. What's next? How do we decide what we like? How does everyone like the exact same things at the same time? Fashion and trends blows my mind. It's as if noone has any taste of their own. Their taste is based on what is trendy. "It's what everyone is listening to these days". Why does that mean we have to like it?

Creativity is stifled by this restriction called fashion and trend. I hope you get my point.
