Note to Be - MIDI Quantizer vs Ringotron Usage & Stats
Take full control of your MIDI experience with Note to Be—the powerful iOS app designed to transform how you interact with your music. Whether you're working with a MIDI keyboard, sequencer, or MIDI CC input, Note to Be ensures your notes are perfectly quantized to the nearest selected note, allowing you to craft precise, harmonious compositions with ease.
Key Features:
- Customizable Note Selection: Choose individual notes from any octave, or apply your selection across the full -1 to +8 octave range.
- Octave Flexibility: Work within the entire octave spectrum, selecting and unselecting notes with a simple tap.
- MIDI CC Integration: Use MIDI CC from hardware controllers or apps like ShiftBud to convert control changes into quantized notes. Easily create chord voicings and dynamic live performances.
- Multi-Synth Support: Assign different MIDI channels to multiple synths, allowing each to respond to the quantized MIDI output independently.
- Live Performance Enhancement: Engage the 'all notes' toggle to instantly apply note selections across all octaves or quickly select notes in a specific key and scale.
- Microtonality: Select a microtonal scale from the Scala Library with +5000 microtonal scales, or import your own to the iCloud folder. Play the MPE supported synths polyphonically.
With Note to Be, your music becomes a canvas, and every note is a brushstroke. Unlock new creative possibilities and refine your sound with the precision of MIDI quantization, right from your iOS device.
Note to Be is a MIDI app and does not produce any sound on its own. You need a MIDI input source and an audio output destination in order to work with Note to Be. The AUv3 plugin requires an AUv3 host app such as AUM, Logic Pro for iPad, Loopy Pro, Cubasis, Nanostudio, apeMatrix, Audiobus etc.

Ringotron allows taming the strong transformational effects of traditional ring modulation, opening up a wider range of possibilities in sound design and audio FX.
Its multi-band design enables fine control over which parts of the spectrum will be transformed by the effect. A special soft mode is available that borrows concepts from feedback modeling, which can be used to reduce intermodulation effects that are often a limiting factor in the more general applicability of ring modulators.
In addition to the layers of control they provide, combination of these core features also allows the plugin to act as a stereo, multi-peak resonant filter that can also smoothly morph into a ring modulator.
FEATURES:
• 2 parallel ring modulator units (max. modulator frequency: 8 kHz)
• Stereo separation can be added to band center, mod. frequency, mod. phase
• Ultra-narrow bands can be used to create highly resonant sounds
• 4 large ribbon controls for band center and modulator frequencies
• Band center frequencies can be modulated by the built-in modulation system
• Tempo syncing can be independently configured for each oscillator
• Built-in soft limiter and clipper to protect against volume spikes
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
The plugin comes with a zero-latency, non-brickwall soft limiter, and as such, its stopping power is limited. Make sure to always leave enough headroom or use an external brickwall limiter for total protection against powerful transients. Alternatively, a built-in soft clipper is also available.
PLEASE NOTE:
• AUv3-compatible host app is required
• Suported sampling rates: 44.1, 48, 96 kHz
