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.

You know I really wasn't going to, but now you mention it's a bargain (and to show solidarity with the Judean People's Front and all they went through to ge the thing approved etc)....
This is one of those things that some kid is gonna take and be the next Sigur Ros or something. Some apps are hammers and some are paint brushes. This is a hammer brush. Hats off to AD on this one. Totally unique and an instrument in its own right.
Chris Randall is the freaking man that's why!!
60$ for pc / Mac is killer too!!
He went thru a lot of rotten apples to get this to us and I'd pay more just cuz of that and more for the app lol, crazy dope
$8.50 in Canada... I don’t mean to be a cheap bastid ($68 bucks left on the account I am hoping gets me to Drambo and ProQ3, maybe even NS2 audio tracks) but really hoping to at least be able to automate that trigger button in BM3,..
Anyone?
About 10% cpu per instance hosted in AB3 on my iPad Air 1 @128 samples buffer.
Unfortunately, The UI and loop graphics are sluggish/not very smooth.
Maybe the older hardware doesn’t handle the graphics very well?
If this quote doesn't make into his marketing materials/tweet storm etc then tricks are being missed.
I'm sorry I can't respond with helpful information. I don't have BM3 or use itBut I have noticed your requests, so keep fighting the good fight.
Holy crap this is a game changer. This enables me to do what I was hoping Photon would enable me to do, plus more.
IOS is finally a mature music making environment with multiple quality paths one could take to making music and playing it live. Gone are the days where I would spend hours trying to get apps to both work together and sound good with each other. What a great, exciting, and satisfying time to be alive.
The struggle is real.
You mean the People’s Front of Judea , right?
Yea, but Spotify sucks ass at app design & UI/UX, so may not want to use them as hill to die on.
it’s excellent on cpu i haven’t noticed anything. it has run super smooth the whole time > @Jumpercollins said:
Also
Can it provide an AU host as an IAP?
Holy fuckgiggles this thing is amazing...
i cant get it to work in AUM,can anyone help please?
@AudioGus it looks like these are some of the automation options when adding Enso as an audio FX to a bank.
Did you put it in the effects slot?
And hit play on the AUM transport.
oop,oh yeah,its too early haha thanks
No. It’s an AU, and AUs can’t host other apps.
Wow. This is my life now...Enso creations 🌀
Was so worth the wait and hype, I've been refreshing the app store for days hahaha
loving it! Only just getting started
Bought it. Got no idea what I’m gonna do with it but can’t resist hype and an intro discount!
I own and use all of the AD apps.
Came to say roughly this same thing in roughly that order. I’ve set the feedback to 50% and gone through Aparillos presets and just let the loopy waves rattle and massage my brain as they fade into the ether. This may be the hands down best all around deal of any music app ever. That is not hyperbole, this should be a +$20 app. At $5.99, I feel like I did a smash and grab at the App Store. This was worth the wait AND matches the hype! With Brambo on the way, auv3 updates all over the place, we are in for a truly great 2019! Errrrbody, post your loop sessions here! I just gotta hear more!
Mosquitoes (the most dangerous animals in the world other than humans) would dispute this outrageous claim.
Unless you're ranking based on fat content. Apple will hear about this!
Ok, so far the only thing I’d buy @Chris_Randall a beer to add is to have rhythm-based increment/decrement options for rec/playback speed in addition to pitch based ones... Yea, I could do the math, but I’m lazy. 😀
What I mean is, since we know host tempo and loop length we should be able to say, “increase record speed by x bpm for every + press”
And not sure if it’s a bug, but the quantize option doesn’t seem to work for overdub. Seems to overdub as soon as you press overdub or trigger... seems like the trigger for overdub should also quantize...
Yes I've noticed that in the video. Time divisions would be most welcome. Sync button that turns values on the plus/minus buttons to common divisions would do it.
Thanks.
Yeah this thing is brilliant, well done Audio Damage
