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.

Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

Streambyter inspiration thread - Autobass lowest note

edited August 2018 in General App Discussion

Thanks to Nic the creator of streambyter for cooking up this script.

32 represents 50% chance.

IF LOAD
# K0 is user settable constant
# (could set via MIDI msg?)
# probability of note passing
# range 0 to 100 (0-64 in hex)
ASS K0 = 32

END

IF MT == 90
IF M2 > 0
# we have a note on,
# get random number
# between 0 and 100
# and compare to K0
# and block if above
IF R64 > K0
XX = XX +B
END
END
END

Single note input; rotate midi channel

IF LOAD
# L80 - current channel
ASS L80 = 0
END

9X XX 00 = 8X
IF MT == 90
# note on, assign channel
MAT M0 = MT + L80

# remember channel for note
ASS LM1 = L80

# increment/cycle next channel
MAT L80 = L80 + 1
IF L80 > F
ASS L80 = 0
END
END
IF MT == 80
# note off, get note on's channel
MAT M0 = MT + LM1
END

  • To confirm the above is two separate scripts

  • Two very good and usefull scripts. Thanks a lot. Imagination is limitless ;0)

  • Very useful, would like to see how to control amount via midi :)

  • Good stuff, thanks for sharing. Have to get over to Nic's forum to see other new stuff cooking.

  • More of this please :)

  • What's a good example of an App setup (or "rig" if you'll permit the analogy) that would be good for this StreamByter AU (or MIDIFire) script?

  • I've been wanting a way to do midi delay and variation, so I can creatively use one base sequence to create a bassline, chord, and pad / lead / etc... I've been having decent luck with Rozetta, but I picked this up to see what more I can do. I'll post anything I cobble together that works decent... Fun!!

    Good luck - there is a delay in the presets to get you started.

  • Rotate midi channel script updated so you can set the channel range. Think repeating note cycling through 5 midi channels.

    Epic!

    As here are reading the knowledgeable people:

    Can StreamByter get the lowest playing note of chords and send it to a different MIDI channel?

    So, providing the notes for a bass App from MIDI.

    Without breaking a sweat. Ping Nic at Audeonic forums.

    I read the answer.

    For me, it would be sufficient to always just route the lowest current playing note additionally to a second MIDI channel.

    Regardless of chord or not.

    And as soon as a lower notes comes it, switch to that.
    And if a note is finish, switch to the next lowest note.

    cat notes | sort -n | head - 1

    I would try to register in that forum in the evening, to append this.

  • Our mate Nic has done it again.

    This script identifies the lowest note and outputs to a user defined midi channel.

    Thinking this would work great with steppolyarp :smile:

    Oh my oh my...this is crazy insane...

    Play some chords...streambyter will route the bass on channel 4 and the full chords on any other synth (on channel 1). If you want to make it more spicey, then route the bass first to SPA (then to Model D for example), route the chords to an arpegiator and another route directly to a synth

    And instead of playing the chords, sequence them on Suggester

    This is the hat-trick

    Yes, I also have some troubles with ChordFlow or Navichord...but it works very well with Suggester. Maybe this app has a more strict way to manage the note in note out thing. Very promising script. I hope it will be โ€œfine tunedโ€
