and thank you very much for that, richardyot.
However, before I pull the trigger on the app, I would like to know a bit about the temptations I will be facing...
Can anyone help ?
Comments
Well by iOS standards they're not cheap, but compared to the desktop equivalents (to which they are identical) they're a bargain.
some more:
And for comparison these are the desktop prices of the exact same Fabfilter plugins, bear in mind both the synths (One and Twin 2) are included for free in Auria Pro:
For what it's worth I have bought most of the content. The Fabfilter and PSP plugins are 100% worth every penny. I don't tend to use the FXpansion ones though.
The IR files are only so-so, Golden Glue is OK, but they're not IRs of real spaces, they're synthetic, which is a shame. There are some free IRs on SampleCity of real spaces which I tend to use more.
The synth presets seem a fair deal to me considering the synths themselves are bundled with the app.
All Lyra content is free, lots of drums, several pianos etc... 4GB of samples.
I haven't bought any of the loops, and the Drumagog content I have actually imported from the desktop version + a couple of packs I bought for desktop - the iOS versions are much smaller than the desktop ones.
excellent, richardyot, that's what I was also looking for today and didn't find, thank you very much
Impressive effort, richardyot.
Thanks a LOT. This is really helpfull.
So from that, what I would like to know is can Pro-Q and Pro-C be upgraded to version2 instead of a completely new purchase
I'm pretty sure the version 2 of plugins is a new purchase, non-upgradeable.
Apparently yes, when the next update to Auria Pro hits the App Store. You can see the upgrade pricing in the screen shots I posted earlier up the thread.
^@richardyot, I took the plunge, upgraded to Pro, and am not seeing the upgrade plugin pricing in the Auria store. Maybe available in the next update then. Were you a beta testing?, or how are you able to post screenshots of these unavailable upgrade prices?
Thx
The screenshot is from the upcoming update, so hold off before getting Pro C2 and Pro Q2 if you want to take advantage of the upgrade pricing.
This is where you have to love the iOS world, though the devs would like to make more. Essentially, for the price of the Fabfilter Limiter on the desktop, you can get Auria, the limiter, the compressor, and the EQ. Which is pretty incredible.
... rolling in still-ly ...
Yeah, but you don't have all the BS to get the audio into Auria/iPad in the first place before processing.
no "everything bundle"?
Scream w/ raybans.
What's the point of buying turnado as auria IAP when the app is available ?
Turnado and WOW aren't true in-app purchases. When you click to buy them in Auria, it takes you to the Apple App Store where you can buy the app version (IAA). If Auria detects that you own the app version, it unlocks the Auria version automatically.

Turnado is a massive no brainer in Auria IMO. You can make it do so many things.
I don't have anything to get in. Just record right into the iPad and Auria. Makes life simple.
Happy to see the upgrade discount for Pro-Q 2 and Pro-C 2. Was going to stick with the original versions but considering upgrading now when this becomes available.
Man I went for the Fabfilter Saturn (along with Audulus) for my weekly purchases, and I think I will use it in place of Tonestack for guitar processing. Already have timeless and the pro-c and pro-q. The new synths are incredible sounding as well. I'm more stoked on Auria Pro than I ever thought I would be.
Right, so I got myself Drumagog (for Auria). As you say, the selection of sounds for the iOS version is somewhat limited. Is there a way of purchasing .gog files/sets and import them into my iPad, without having/owning the desktop version? Could I, just as an example, purchase a kit like this and get it into my iPad:
https://www.drumdrops.com/drum-samples/1963-premier-outfit-54-drum-kit/drum-replacement-pack
Not sure about Drumagog versions and how they work within Auria but I bought a percussion pack from the Drumagog site and they work fine inside Auria.
Is transferring/importing them straight forward? Or is it iTunes and some magic-sauce-manual-folder-structure that is needed?
The first thing you should do is email WML who will provide you with some additional Gog files for free. I think the email is [email protected] and you should send them a screenshot of your iTunes receipt for Drumagog.
But yes, after that you can buy Gog files from the WML website and from other places too.
iTunes I'm afraid or ifunbox. There is a Gog folder where you can put single Gog files, although folders make more sense for finding files in Drumagog itself. You can also put other audio files (wav's I think) although they only play back that single instance of course.
Excellent! And thanks for the e-mail info! I did not know that, not sure how anyone would, but I have sent off an e-mail with a screenshot, lets see what, if anything, that comes back.
Also, whilst I have you on the line, thanks in general for the awesome excellent fantastic Auria Pro tips in the other thread too. Extremely helpful!
You can actually also add Gog files without iTunes or iFunbox if you zip them up with the right folder structure first.
Your root folder should be named Gog Files and then you have one sub folder below that. If you use Open In to get the zip into Auria it will automatically get unpacked in the right place.
