X-40 is a Groovebox inspired AUv3 host app with a one page interface designed to give you the look and feel of a real piece of hardware: a mixer, a clip launcher and a step sequencer in one place.
X-40 has no sounds of its own. It brings together the instruments and effects you already own, so install a few AUv3 synths, samplers or drum machines first.
BRING YOUR OWN SOUNDS
- Load any AUv3 synth, sampler or drum machine on eight tracks
- Add up to six effects to every track, plus two shared send effects for reverbs and delays
LAUNCH & PERFORM
- Start clips and whole scenes from an 8 by 20 grid
- Chain scenes together and keep everything in time
- Pads light up in colour so you can see what is playing and what is about to start
WRITE & PLAY
- Step sequencer up to 128 steps long
- Playable keybed for scales and drums
- Shape every step with velocity, probability, ratchets, gate, timing, conditions and more
- Or record your playing live
MIX & RECORD
- Faders, sends, mute, solo and a built-in EQ on every track
- Crossfader to morph between two sound settings
- Record the master or each track on its own, then export your takes
MADE FOR HARDWARE
- Play it on the screen, or plug in an Akai APC40 mk2 for hands-on control with matching lights
- Choose a black or brushed-steel look from the menu
- A built-in manual explains every button and what it does
