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.

And why do you think that is?
I'm with you.
I used to read complaints about price worthy of r/ChoosingBegars from iOS music app users
Ableton Intro on iPad for $99. I'm dreaming about it
Feel free to pay double or triple the price of any app you buy, making a donation to the devs. Easy.
That said.. Did anyone buy this?
I'm guessing @mistercharlie and @OnfraySin have, since they're so keen to support high prices on iOS.
Oh, beatiful post hoc fallacy. Congratulations!
So have you?
I don’t object to the price, developers can charge whatever is needed to recoup their investment. However organ sounds are not my thing so I’ll pass but I’m happy to see IK on the platform.
It’s not the first time they’ve had expensive apps BTW, Syntronik and Lurrssen are both in that price ballpark.
Full Syntronik iOS is about $50 USD as at the time of posting and I'm guessing is much more 'featured' than B-3X if you could possibly compare the two.
It's on sale though isn't it? At launch it was $90, and they also released an expansion later on.
Chancers
Price seems reasonable if you’re into an official branded and by all accounts most authentic Hammond emulation. It’s not going to be for everybody but the price is a 1/3 of the desktop.
Not touching this until they release a demo, like they did with Syntronik.
Wonder if they send a copy to Doug?
If it sounds properly good £100 I think is reasonable for a full featured Hammond with everything anyone might need. Bit annoying that $100 actually converts to £75 at the moment 😠
I think we are genuinely spoilt by the likes of the Moog apps and NeoSoul Keys being as cheap as they are, I couldn’t believe they were such good value, and sounded so amazing, when I first discovered them.
Nevertheless I will wait for demos and the inevitable sale at some point.
This price is fine. As long as the sounds/samples are desktop class and not stripped down. I’d rather they released it on iOS and gave us an option to buy it at all vs desktop only where they know people expect to pay.
That FX section looks nice....kinda wish they would drop those individual plugins! I need an 1176 on vocals! Anyone think it possible to use this on an audio track, route the audio thru, and only use the Fx section?
You and @MonzoPro are misrepresenting what people are saying about how the low prices create an ecosystem that makes it virtually impossible for iOS music app developers to make a decent living.
No one WANTS to pay more but some of us realize that the low prices are not good for the long term prospects and we are willing to pay higher prices for good products in the hopes of supporting a healthy ecosystem.
It isn't about throwing money away.
Exactly.
Where am I misrepresenting what people are saying? Point that out please.
The two comments I responded to were:
iOS music app buyers are unwilling to pay a reasonable price for anything.
and
I used to read complaints about price worthy of r/ChoosingBegars from iOS music app users
Which to me, suggests THEY were misrepresenting app buyers in general. We don't want to pay a reasonable price, and are beggars, with a huge sense of entitlement apparently. That old insult again.
My response was, since they think we're all beggars and have stated they are more than happy to pay the price stated, did they buy the app in question? If not, then it's starting up the same old arguement for the sake of it, that comes around every few weeks and always ends up causing bad feeling.
So put the prices up then. See what happens. No-one is forcing devs to price the apps at what they are, but if market forces don't support them and they make less sales, then there's no point in ranting on here about it.
If you think they deserve more, buy this app. Make donations. Spread the word, that's what I do.
What do you do?
Explain.
I guess the high price comes due to licensing fees since it’s an official port.
Or they think it’s that much worth because it is „official“.
...would be an instant buy, only it’s also for iPhone...so please make it ready for an universal app!!!
Blocked.
109.99 euros?..... Mmmmmmm.. Sounds like Mr Cock Up is in town, on the App Store?... I hope @ikmultimedia could elaborate this?.... If they are know about this.. I remember years ago, this happened to FL Studio 2 app... It was wrongly priced.. I was hoping that one day they could bring MODO Bass across, even T Racks 5.?... But only can wait & see?.. I’m sure its a mistake on the iTunes?....... Hope?.... “Gulp!”...
Yeah that's right, jump into the thread and criticise iOS music app buyers for being "unwilling to pay a reasonable price for anything", but then run and hide when asked if you yourself bought the app in question.
Would be awesome to have just my iPad or better my iPhone hooked up to this...

Explain what?
Seems self explanatory. And I agree.
Also, self explanatory. And I also agree.
