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.

So timing is no better than Cubasis 2?
Surely this is terrible no? I was hopeful that a complete rebuild would have made stable, accurate timing an absolute priority above anything else...
Can any other C3 users confirm that we've still got wonky timing issues?
Y'know Cubase on my Atari St in 1990 was rock solid... This is potentially end of the line for me and Cubasis 😩
I still have my Atari ST and an Atari Falcon.
The midi timing is rock solid for sure, even now
it's why the Atari's lasted so long in studios when
Mac's and P.C's were still struggling to sync audio to midi.
Cubase on Atari and eventually on PC had
the best midi timing bar none for quite awhile.
If you want good timing then use Beatmaker 3, Groove Rider or Gadget for example.
Yeah I had a pretty big midi daisy chain going on; using any synth or drum machine with midi through 1st then ending on synth with just midi in and out. It never missed a beat.
I was remarking upon the back story of Cubase and
it's early days as a pioneer sequencer and DAW.
I've got both BM3 and Gadget though I rarely use
the latter these days something I'm about to address.
Shouldn't have to. Cubasis 3 should be doing this. I'm still hoping it does TBH as I get on with everything else in Cubasis.
yes, i would like to say ‘cheers’ to striz, dog & tja for their vanguard updating and speedy posting that ALL IS NOT WELL in Cubasis2 land.. would be good to have a little more info from them about what ios version they are rocking..
Steinberg have kinda done me a favour with the Cubasis3 ios 13 only snap.. i won’t be going there for a while and by the time i do maybe v3 will be fully fleshed, bug free and have some of the (hopefully) NEW features that a ‘new product’ might be expected to have .. plus maybe a half price sale that can stand in for the bundle upgrade that etiquette possibly demands. ( emphasis on ‘possibly’ )
at the moment the small pro’s and tiny con’s weigh up to an almost Buridan’s Ass situation for most of us, hopefully Steinberg will move either the water or the hay a smidge closer.
DAWs on yr phone screen! What is U? congrats to all Hamsters in the music production game out there, your time has come..
Hi @Bon_Tempi,
In terms of issues, these are planned to be addressed in Cubasis 2.
Best,
Lars
@FPC
Totally agree in regards to midi timing and Cubasis.
They have a team of seasoned programmers on the two major desktops and on iOS.
Sending out apps with half arsed programming is for amateurs not seasoned professionals.
Damn I've been having some issues since the last update... Deleted app actually... Hopefully they actually end up finishing the app before moving on completely.
iPad 6th gen, latest iPadOS.
cheers
just to get some possible confusion out of the way: we are talking about the 2.8.2 update.
I can't say anything on V3...
cheers
I was referring to version 2.8.2, After I updated to the latest version of Cubasis 2 it’s been really really bad. I really wish I had stayed with 2.8.1, and also every time you open it , it defaults to the store window, I don’t like that at all. I already have all the iap‘s for Cubasis 2 and I’m not interested in Cubasis 3 LE. I’m really bummed out with 2.8.2 big time. I’m on OS 13.2.3 again, everything was great before I updated 🤷🏽♂️
thanks again for info.. hope you don’t have to wait too long for a fix.. meantime in pontoon parlance for me its a ‘stick’ rather than twist..
Hi,
You should be able to close the shop window, and it should not be opened again?
What other issues do you have?
Best
Lars
Oops no. I have no idea why I posted on this thread! I really want to go V3 but I'll be gutted if the timing is still all over the place.
I couldn't even just drop samples (wav) onto the timeline recently. They were sounding way after they should have. Strangely I got them to behave by adding an AU filter (that I didn't even want or need) to the channel.
Another time I just had to give up on using Rozeta xox on Ruismaker FM it couldn't stay in time for more about a bar....
Of course we can close the shop window, but
every_single_time_you_start_cubasis_2.8.2_it_opens_the_shop_window
Every time. Why?
lutz
Oh, thanks a lot!
Again, if you need some real-world MIDI testing, feel free to get in touch :+1
...it's called aggressive marketing ...that's why
.
2.8.2 here - shop opens every time I open cubasis.
+1 Very annoying.
I’m glad to have deleted my copy from the iPad, at least, if I’ll change my mind and reinstall it, I have 2.8.1 still. Not in the roadmap atm, anyway...
Seems they've taken a page from IK multimedia
It keeps coming back. Really not a good look. Worth putting out an update just to fix that imo.
Yeah, same problem here...very annoying...
2.8.2 shop not opening here, lands on most recently opened project as usual. Seems like a bug rather than marketing for those with the shop issue. FWIW I’ve been stoked with Cubasis and its long and free update pathway. I’ve got steinberg hardware and hope the Le v3 / iap transfer will eventually be available....if not I’ll wait for a sale and dip into the $ pool as needed. Either way cubasis has been incredible value
@LFS honestly, the new C2 is simply broken!
The questions are:
1) will you fix this?
2) Has C3 the same problems?
I updated one device but realy did not expect such big problems.
As long as those issues get fixed, OK - but i realy hope, this is not just a trick to get people buy C3, as C2 simply does not work anymore!
P.S I wanted to upload a screen recording, but that was not possible.
Will upload to DropBox and edit.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/jybkaxh5x2kxenb/RPReplay_Final1576775195.MP4?dl=0
Can you access this?
Uploading from Photos to Dropbox was an adventure in itself (i needed to allow access to my contacts and then select at least one contact to upload at all!!!)
This project is nearly empty, one MIDI track with Rozeta Particles triggers Phasemaker.
And it crackles like hell!!!
Now, don't tell me to change settings - your defaults should work for such a minimal project!
As long as it still is the only way to run a dozen instances of iMonoPoly at the same time, I'll keep Gadget for sure.
Hi tja,
Could you please let me have more details, what actually is broken in Cubasis 2.8.2?
Thanks
Lars
