**Audio Unit (AUv3)**
The machine becomes an instrument you load straight into GarageBand, AUM, Cubasis, Logic or any
other compatible host: its front panel appears in the host's window, its tempo follows the
transport, and its state is saved with your session. Seven separate outputs — the full mix and
each instrument group — so you can mix the kit track by track. Fifteen automatable parameters:
volumes, accent, tempo, fill-in and effects.
**MIDI**
The machine now sends every hit as a General MIDI drum note, accents included, to your other
apps and MIDI interfaces, to Audiobus, and to the host when running as an Audio Unit. The
channel is set in the settings.
**Audiobus 3**
Updated to the latest SDK, with a MIDI port alongside the audio port, remote Start/Stop
triggering, and the machine's complete state saved in your Audiobus presets.
**Mac version**
The app now runs on the Mac, included in your purchase: a window in the machine's own
proportions, menus, keyboard shortcuts, and knobs you turn with the scroll wheel or trackpad.
**Built-in settings panel**
No need to leave the app any more: every setting is gathered in a panel styled like the machine
itself, one tap on Settings away — accent, muted instruments, register sync, effects, MIDI,
Bluetooth foot switch. It adapts to your device: on iPhone the sections stay reachable at all
times and each page fits the screen, with no scrolling and no zooming. The iOS Settings remain
available, and the two stay in step.
**And also**
Output limiter: no more clipping on busy patterns. Pinch to zoom and two-finger panning on the
front panel. Haptic feedback on the pads. Bluetooth LE foot switch pairing and command learning
from inside the app. No data collected.… more - 📈CR-8000 dropped out of every chart we trackLast seen 3 Oct

About CR-8000
Holding the simplicity of eighties instruments and carrying their raw heritage to you, it turns your device into a pocket beat making companion.
I believe that designing a pure interface, simply displaying your machine without any distraction, was the best way to reflect the spirit of the period it was born.
Warning !
CR-8000 is actually very easy to operate and to play with but still tricky to program.
Please refer to corresponding documentation or just take the challenge !
Main characteristics :
- 13 Original high quality double-samples
- 24 Combinable preset patterns
- 8 Programmable patterns
- 8 Preset fill-ins
- 4 Programmable fill-ins
- 8 Arranger variations
- 2 Rhythm memory registers
- Shuffle mode (3/4 signature)
- Separated voice section volumes
- Gradual and programmable accentuation
- Full machine state auto-save
- Programs and selections auto-save
- Background audio playback enabled
- Audiobus V3
- InterApp audio
- AudioUnit
- Midi
- Bluetooth LE
Bonuses accessible in your device settings :
- Unleash all-purpose LCD rather than only displaying the tempo
- Alter the way the patterns are played simultaneously
- Alternative « Rock » drum kit with integrated effects
- Built-in instruments effects : « Stereo pan » and « Jungle tune »
- Built-in audio effects : « Equalizer » and « Distortion »
- Built-in global effects : « Delay » and « Reverb »
- Mute any instrument
- Prevent any instrument from being affected by accents
- 4 Synchronized register auto-switching modes
I hope you will enjoy it as much as I love it ;-)
