Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

@dwrae left five stars and a nice short review for this awesome - since day one - app
Thanks!

Is it possible to send the midi input for the au fx as a modulator using midi learn?
I have no idea what you mean, so that's probably a 'no'.
For instance, on a midi track I loaded Rozetta LFO and it is sending out midi cc,but using midi learn to map it to an au parameter for modulation doesn’t work.
Nonetheless, great update.
Ah, ok. Well, it's only accepting MIDI input from the iOS MIDI system, not internal MIDI.
So it is not possible to send MIDI cc data between channels? For example, i set one midi auv3 plugin (midilfo) and sending midi cc data to different synths and effects on different channels.
Nope.
Audio Evolution Mobile Studio v5.5.8 for iOS has been released:
Great 🤗
Niceeee
Where's the tip jar? Lets get it moving
Great. That’s a lot more immediacy for automation recording (and not forgetting touch automation recording is still on).
I am thinking about buying AEMS, there are a number of questions, please answer those who use the program. Thank you.
Thanks for that.
I’ll give it a try..
No. My workaround is to first create with the plugin on one track, then duplicate that track as many times as I would use multi-outs and then on each track solo a different instrument/out on every duplicated track.
I’m not sure I understand your question but AEM has extended audio routing, FX (parallel routing) and FX sends capabilities.
AEM has only one MIDI AU slot per track. For more complex MIDI routing I set up the MIDI chain I want in AUM and direct that to an AEM track. If you need sync I use AEMs MIDI clock out (which via Audiobus can also give you Ableton Link with start/stop).
Every exposed AU parameter can be MIDI remote controlled/learned.
I don’t know what you mean with at once, but you can record touch automation with AUs (also multiple parameters simultaneously). I found it very reliable. The editing is a bit rudimentary and there’s no loop recording. But being able to easily/immediately set the playhead to where you want helps.
One MIDI AU per track, but see above. I think the only limit on the number of FX is your CPU.
Answered to the best of my knowledge, but please also consult the manual..
Thank you very much for the information, I will wait for the implementation of multiout, this is the most critical for me.
No but there’s a workaround with koala as it can export stems and aem allows importing multiple audio files simultaneously
Please rephrase the question, what are you tryin to achieve?
No, only with an external midi controller or by using a work around, sending midi to aem from an external host like aum
Yes for both, you can also save your mapping as a preset
Please rephrase the question, unsure what you mean
Midi au - 1, in the future it will have more although there’s no eta for this from the dev
I mean, unlike cubesis, which doesn't have full-featured buses, or auria, which has a limited number of them, does AEM have full-featured buses? For example, can I do a side-chain to an effects bus?
Is there access to all possible parameters? Cubasis doesn't have access to the effect and synth parameters, you have to write automation first to have access to them, which is terribly inconvenient. And what about parameters in MIDI effect?
There are unlimited number of busses, you can use fx sends from tracks to send to busses or set the output of a track to a bus. You can side-chain between tracks and side-chain to an effect bus, but you cannot side-chain between busses since that could cause audio loops.
All parameters are available directly for automation and in the MIDI parameter control dialog, you can also access them all, given they are AUv3 units, not IAA. You cannot do this for AU MIDI effects.
Do I understand correctly that I cannot control the automation for MIDI effects?
Midi effects can’t be used as a modulation source.
They only send notes + pitchbend/mod wheel.
MIDI effects have their own CC parameters and you can automate them in AUM. It's not about modulation source, it's about controlling MIDI effect parameters.
Ok. Got it.
Nope, it can’t.
Midi learn is for instruments or fx only.
That’s true for now, no clue if it’s planned to evolve.
Audio Evolution Mobile Studio v5.6.3 for iOS is rolling out:
I am sorry I have to say that I had to remove my apps from the store because of a f*ck up by Apple that causes all purchase verifications to fail. In-app purchases will probably have stopped working as well:
https://developer.apple.com/system-status/
Could someone who has done effect in-app purchases inside AEMS (so not Audio Units) check if it still works or has reverted to trial state?
Tried vtp and it reverts back to trial
Edit: do you mean VTP stand-alone or VTP inside AEMS?
Aem
Both vtp and vts
can confirm
Ok, I'll need to take down everything. This also means all your IAP's won't work. I am truely sorry, but this is beyond my control.
