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 Store

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

    Once Korg adds import of user samples/wave-tables to KEW and fixes to what apparently is a bug (ie. being able to change the start of the sample playback, I mean the position knob is movable when PCM wave is selected but nothing happens?!).

    And bring sample tweaking on par with at least the basics from the Volca Sample I might be tempted but nah, I still love Gadget enough to keep it in my iPad :)

  • I’m the opposite - I’ve not bought KEW as I already have Gadget and that does what I need (although I wouldn’t say no to a wavetable gadget...).

  • Nice idea, and certainly focuses the mind. I couldn’t do it though, I like lots of things.

  • Always good to see when someone has found his own perfect way of music making!
    I wish I was that "easy going" and just shut up and be satisfied with what KEW offers B)

    I feel much more at home in GR-16 and Gadget, can't live without my own samples and playing around with my own wavetables and synth programs.

    That’s all my op is about

    I found the tool that’s right for me

    Lately I’ve been playing with a combo of Xequence/Rozeta + AUM/apematrix + audiobus and sequencing synths (mostly model 15/D and Zeeon)

    I’m also exploring the possibilities of FAC Envolver in this setup but my air2 struggles a bit if I push it.

    I’m not making full tracks, mostly preparing sample accurate material (using link) for future tracks I’ll then be sequencing in cubasis.

    I find this setup to be great fun, though, and a fresh approach to making music in iOS, without expecting a full DAW environment which I find I can’t really get on the ipad, at least for EDM which is what I do

    Harsh.

  • I could probably delete much of my apps and just use BM3 and a couple of synths :D

    Gadget has already gone though as my Air2 doesn’t like the heat lol

    I'm nearing my 'App Trinity'(ie. Cubasis, BM3 & Gadget with all IAPs) in no priority order :)

  • i enjoy electribe wave for a good jam but it does not feed my creative urges in the way that a proper AUM session does. its hard to produce anything outside of dance music with this kit.

    Yeah I would miss Cubasis. I still use it do some stuff and send it to BM3 - same with Twin2 in AP. I suppose BM3 / Cubasis / Auria Pro would be my ‘App Trinity’ :)

    Might be just misunderstanding a type of humour. I thought ‘what the fuck is this weirdo on about’ regarding @JohnnyGoodyear when I first came on here.

    He posted a fairly well-known painting by contemporary artist Christopher Wool. I personally thought it made the thread more classy.

    Wavetable position has no meaning with a PCM wave, a PCM wave is 2 dimensional, there is no table so no need for position. The bug would be that the knob is enabled when using PCM.

    And bring sample tweaking on par with at least the basics from the Volca Sample I might be tempted but nah, I still love Gadget enough to keep it in my iPad

    Bringing the Gadgets to KEW would sort that out ;)

    I wonder if the op has even tried Gr-16 and stuffed it with serum wavetables.....

    I tried gr 16 and to be honest I didn’t like it

    You really need to dive deeper into it mate. It's a much more featured app than Kew. Specially because it supports nested folders now and things you'd expect out of elektron boxes like trig conditions. The dev just keeps adding features every patch. The wavetable synth alone expanded the flexibility of the app to a Ridiculous degree. You can get tons of serum wavetables online and use them directly inside Gr-16.

  • I’m in the Gadget gang so it’s gadget for life homes
    Plus I’ve invested way too much into it just abandon it now
    Still find it one of the fastest ways to get sketches down on iOS

  • I have to complete all the IAPs first.
    Then I will delete it for good.
    :D

  • edited October 2018

    I erased Gadget when they erased the erase button in favor of putting an existing function (scale display toggle) in a new location. I dunno how much juice they thought that would give the app, but it’s pretty dumb to remove an actual feature to make room for small cosmetic shit like that. Also, too many animations, inconsitencies between gadgets, etc. KEW is surprisingly without 90% of the Gadget fiddliness: good knobs, one synth interface, and CPU OPTIMIZED! I can have 8 synths with all kinds of automations going at once versus Gadget where it would start to crackle beyond four or five or whatever because it was always different depending on which gadget it was. One odyssei, 2 Lisbons maybe, but 5 wavestations ? All over the place.

    One can only hope that KEW was a test flight for UI enhancements in Gadget, for example the drum step sequencer and lord pads. Basically > @AndyPlankton said:

    Wavetable position has no meaning with a PCM wave, a PCM wave is 2 dimensional, there is no table so no need for position. The bug would be that the knob is enabled when using PCM.

    Start position? :D If you wanted a sharper attack on the PCM sample that would do the job.

    Yeah or old-school jungle if/when we get to import our own samples :D
    (Or 'fake glitch/granular time stretch' by spreading the 'start values'(0-100%) across all steps).

  • @mindscaper I'm pretty certain you've mistaken @JohnnyGoodyear 's tone: his history on this forum reveals a supportive and kind spirit. Perhaps wit can't translate all forum-ers / languages / cultures but JGY is a genuinely positive force here.

    Just joined the gang after getting kew and I'm not upset about that at all! They play as friends and hope they gadgetize kew, but if I had to delete one of them right now... It would be.....kew cuz... It's just not really a synth and that's what I like to play... So gadget gang for life as well
