Trying out ROLI BLOCKS (& the ROLI NOISE App)
258About BLOCKS:
So ROLI came out with this new interface for their app- NOISE. If any of you Apple device users are even a little intrigued, definitely go check it out, because the BLOCKS are really just a way to expressively control the app, but the app itself is free to use and you can start learning how to use it without the interface/without having to spend a dollar! Now the pad itself has what they call "5 dimensions of touch" which means you can use five different actions to control five different effects. For example if I press a pitch range with increasing pressure it will swell, and I can do that while I slide right, which would also be raising the pitch. You can get really into this stuff with the Lightpad Block (the one I used in this video) however like I said, you can do a lot of this stuff with just the app.
