What's New

Fixed a crash caused by MIDI clock messages being received by the app.

This issue was causing the app to crash in pretty random times, but generally when editing a parameter; hopefully it is squashed for good!!

App Description

Alpha Editor is an editor and patch library app for the Roland Alpha Juno synthesiser family. It provides direct access to all of the Alpha Juno’s patch parameters through a clear and reactive touch based interface.

Alpha Editor is a MIDI based app; it uses MIDI to communicate with your Alpha Juno. In order to do so, it requires a coreMIDI compatible adaptor or a connection to a Mac or PC that provides MIDI capabilities.

Alpha Editor is compatible with the Roland Alpha Juno 1 & 2, MKS-50 and HS-80. It is intended to only be used in conjunction with one of these synthesisers: it does not double as a generic MIDI controller and it does not produce any sound by itself.

Features:

Create, edit, manage and save Alpha Juno patches on your iPad
Organise your patches into banks
Import bank sysex files into the app
Load patches from the Alpha Editor to your Alpha Juno
Load the current patch from your Alpha Juno to the Alpha Editor
Create random patches
Ships with 5 banks (320 patches) of presets
