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.
Download on the App StoreAudiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

Indeed. Albeit an electribe module wouldn't hurt
@supadom : I’ve not gotten that far into working w Gadget. It DOESN’T have midi out? Ugh.. How would I sync it to let’s say my Korg Kross Synthsizer? AB3? AUM maybe ? Midi bridge?
I think Korg's approach here is to use Gadget as a 'Sound Module' for the Kross.
Ie. the Kross is more like a master/remote-controller for Gadget not the other way around.
Gadget responds to incoming midi, Kross sends midi to it...
Gadget will also sync to MIDI Clock.
THIS
Doubt it will come. Then Korg has no reason to add more Gadgets (and make more $)
so weird, the directions korg takes sometimes. a maximizer. with the push towards gadget for mac and the vst's in daw's....there's already a limiter but i always export dry to mix elsewhere. better internal fx are more important, or fleshing the current ones out with some graphics and/or visual representation.
and yeah, midi out would be a kick in the nuts to the competition and make people invest even more into gadget since it has all around use.
Are there three new Gadgets on the horizon then?
Two gadgets. The maximizer is on the master out from what I can tell
a bah and a humbug until i see some dates for this ish to drop. still no dang montpelier on gadget for OSX, even.
Ah ok thanks. Like the sound of the sampler one, look forward to hearing more.
Thanks , guys!
Korg should add AU hosting and send us all iTunes cards.
I think the philosophy behind Gadget is that it's an all in one type app. You can already export midi and open in another sequencer that is Link enabled, not ideal but it's a solution of sorts if you have some melodies you want to send to hardware.
Can't help it but sooner or later my collection of apps will be something like: Cubasis, Gadget(+ all other Korg apps) and BM3 with a few selected AUv3 synths & effects
Nowt wrong with that Samu
My 'Gadget Addiction' has gone so far that I'm even considering getting an iPhone 8+ or something...
... and I bought the nanoKEY Studio just for use with Gadget...
It will be interesting to check out the Vancouver Gadget and how it can be automated. Will it get close to a Volca Sample or even go way past it? (Ie. messing with the sample start and loop length in real-time).
This 'Lisbon' Sci-Fi Gadget will most likely have some kind of wave-folder/warper for some added weirdness.
The wait is driving me nuts
This is the same for myself - Gadget, BM3 and AU apps. Lots of others not getting a look in or deleted.
BM3 can compensate for many shortcomings in the Gadget sequencer. If Gadget could just implement the direct open in to bypass AudioShare or do a bulk export of all channels (stems) it would be a workflow revolution.
You can export stems no problem from Gadget, I use the Ableton export but you can export the master or individual tracks straight to AudioShare. Just reading as I type this that you want to bypass AudioShare, a bit curious to know why? I love having all my audio in one place so I know where everything is and can backup easily!
I want all the stems separately saved and sent directly into BM3. AudioShare is great but honestly it's a basic technology that Korg has to implement rather than rely on 3rd party apps arbthus stage.
That would require both Gadget and BM3 to support 'open in' for zips. I just tried Patterning to BM3 and it did not seem to give Bm3 as a destination.
Maybe 'Files' will one day do the thing for you.
DocumentPicker/Files.app support is the way to go here for 'sharing' stuff.
On iOS11 and the coming 3.0.4 update to BM3 you can drop files directly into the BM3 folder-structure using the standard iOS document picker or using the Files.app.
So if Korg decides to support iOS11 and it's Files.app it will be a breeze to transfer files between the apps.
(Ie. just access the Gadget folder from inside BM3 or vice versa, no need for 'open in...' to send stuff).
@Samu: That is a very small , smart and very complete collection ofApps.I might add Sampletank (when it gets ab3 ) and fully tricked out Beathawk to that lost
I am a scorpion sir and it is but my nature
As for Vancouver, why not? Cool town....
hm, not sure if i can magine less needed feature for gadget than maxmizer on master channel.. Korg, please stop wasting resources and start adding stuff which is strongly requested (like audioshare, midi out, auv3 host gadget,..)
Or maybe a snake?
On her way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake
A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
"Poor thing," she cried, "I'll take you in and I'll take care of you"
"Take me in tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
She wrapped him up all cozy in a comforter of silk
And laid him by her fireside with some honey and some milk
She hurried home from work that night and soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taken to had been revived
"Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
She clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful," she cried
"But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died"
She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight
Instead of saying thanks, the snake gave her a vicious bite
"Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
"I saved you," cried the woman
"And you've bitten me, but why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die"
"Oh shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin
"You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
"Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman," sighed the snake
@richardyot
Exactly. And in Aesop's version the scorpion only gets to mess with a frog, much prefer the bosoms on offer. However, snakes do have a bit of a brand problem...
