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.

The best midiplayer

in General App Discussion

Hi, since my '90s and 2ks experience as one man band pianobar musician, I have many good midifiles. Now my setup is very different from the one I used: from Korg and Roland expanders, now I want to use my beloved iPad. I have all the best apps.
I would like to have a fast and good midiplayer, where I can choose the sondfound (or, at least, use Roland SoundCanvas App), perhaps mixing with other soundfonts (for drums or other acoustic instruments), and the option to mute the vocal track and changing tempo, and then saving the midifile with muted track and new tempo. I could use Cubasis, but I would like something more specifical. The midifile in Roland SC88 app is really basic (and it doesn't save muted tracks and so on).
What do you suggest? Thanks.

    You can choose soundfonts or you can send the midi to SoundCanvas.

    It has a mixer, so you can mute the tracks you want.

    It has files app integration.

    Thanks. And if I modify tempo or mute tracks, can I save the file?

    I haven't tried that, but you can try to download the app, I think it's free. It has IAP for the full version !

    Another free alternative but I didn’t read closely so it may not have what you need.

    The free version of Sweet MIDI doesn’t let you save modified files AFAIK, doesn’t on my version anyway. You can export but the tempo and mute changes don’t stick.

    Maybe the paid version does but I can’t verify without dropping $20, which I’ve been reluctant to do.

    It works well as a basic player though.

    BTW I think that $20 for a midiplayer is a theft.

    Thanks, this is very basic and doesn't do what I need...
