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.

If that was the case, the list would be much longer.
Not if they haven’t got to them yet.
Summary/Title :
Refusing to freeze
Description:
With multiple instances of isymphonic auv3 open it seems to freeze everything except the last track for no particular reason. I will explain myself better. Yes it freezes but the resulting take contains no audio. It is empty everytime. I've tried different tracks to see if it was THAT particular take and it still happens when you try to freeze the last track.
Expected Results:
To freeze all of the tracks.
Actual Results
Everything freezes but the last track.
Environment:
iOs13 with cubasis 3 and iSymphonic
Summary/Title :
No sound from Thumbjam in Cubasis 3 via Audiobus
Description:
I open Audiobus (latest version) and put Cubasis 3 in Output slot and Thumbjam in Input slot.
In Cubasis 3 I make sure the Thumbjam track is armed but there is no sound when I play the Thumbjam screen.
If I replace Cubasis 3 in Audiobus with Cubasis 2 I do get sound from the Thumbjam screen.
Expected Results:
To hear Thumbjam when I play it in both Cubasis 3 and Cubasis 2
Actual Results
No sound from Thumbjam when using Cubasis 3 (although occasionally I have heard short bursts of sound but only when playing some notes on the Thumbjam screen - the rest are silent. But this is not reliably re-producible.)
Environment:
iOs13.3 with Cubasis 3, Audiobus and Thumbjam
Hi @Crabman,
Unsure if I get this correct, the problem seems to be related to Blamsoft here, correct?
Thanks
Lars
I don't think so because Cubasis creates these folders automatically as soon as you save your first preset in the host.Viking does not even have own preset system.
Happy & healthy new year, @AudioGus!

Summary/Title
Sometimes audio tracks become incapable of holding audio clips
Description
In this project three audio tracks became unable to contain audio clips (see video). Restarting Cubasis or rebooting the iPad did not help. The tracks can never contain audio clips and would need to be deleted and any fx chains rebuilt from scratch.
Expected Results
Audio tracks should always be capable of receiving audio clips.
Actual Results
Moving an audio clip into a track skips over the track(s).
Environment
iPad Pro 10.5, iOS 13.3
Summary/Title
Spin fx not making its way to the mixdown
Description
If I record some spin fx automation (on a track or on a master) and create a mixdown then its not appearing on it
Expected Results
I want to hear those scratches
Actual Results
Result is like there is no effect applied
Environment
iPad Pro 12, iOS 13.3
I don’t know if this is a ‘bug’ but my Cubasis 2 IAP Dont transfer to iPhone also. Please advise @LFS

When between black keys response is deactivated the velocity spread on the white keys is not properly adjusted.
The MIDI FX stack is indecipherable as to signal flow and the use of “through” and “record to timeline” is unreliable. MIDI output is blocked in some stacks regardless of through settings and passed in others. Velocity Keyboard fails in all cases. Bram Bos apps can not be stacked. On the whole the MIDI FX path is not operating as well as it did in Cubasis 2.X.
Timeline scrubbing is missing.
Hi @ipadbeatmaking,
These are the steps to transfer your Cubasis 2 in-app purchases to Cubasis 3 on the iPad:
Once done, the IAP's should be stored to your App Store account and synced.
Best,
Lars
Is there a link to a thread where you are allowed to talk about Cubasis 3 and the Steinberg release?
Anyone into compiling a list of paying user beta test bug reports? The Steinberg site lists ten in total for C3, I think we are past that now. We can cross check for Steinberg as well as possibly find work-arounds for users. Thanks.
Have at it: https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/36275/cubasis-3-for-iphone-and-ipad-available#latest
Compilation of Cubasis 3 thread bug reports thus far:
1.Reopen C3 does not reload Rozeta Xox (driving Ruismaker),have to unload and select/open it again.
2.Freezing a track in real time (tried it with the same combination of Rozeta XoX and Ruismaker)
results in a glitchfest wavefile. Also reproducible every time.
3.Hickup at the beginning of a loop.
4.Apple Pencil not working on iPad Pro 2018 12.9
5.Cubasis 3 is not sending MIDI Clock start/stop from the transport buttons.
6.Some midi auv3s are not recording any midi to the timeline and/or not sending midi to instruments.
Tested 10 so far with these results:
— midi auv3 that don‘t work in Cubasis 3
Aphelian
Ochtachron
KB1
Velocity Keyboard
7.Wrong note being highlighted while changing note’s velocity/position using the buttons on the left.
8.Copy a midi segment of a track, and paste it on the same track, that segment does not sound, the instrument is microsonic.
9.Freeze a tack, the first 2 or 4 bars are not recorded.
10.Midi over Bluetooth it keeps the connection but stops sounds on some occasions.
11.Unable to import wav files from AudioShare?
12.External inputs from audiofuse interface don’t seem to work at all.
13.Undo history remains unpopulated after using the app for a few minutes.
14.Deleting track caused DSP spike, glitched sound, then loss of audio/silence.
15.Open an auv3 instrument like AudioLayer. Change the preset from its default to a different instrument. Close C3. Reopen and AudioLayer has not remembered the Instrument change.
Same behaviour with other auv3s like Factory, SwarPlug, etc.
16.the left column can no longer be scrolled so that it is sometimes necessary to close instrument windows to get to i.e. the list of midi plugins.
17.It seems when zooming / panning that Cubasis 3 has issues detecting whether or not clips should be moved.
18.Moving tracks vertically in Cubasis 3 does not auto scroll the timeline verticaly like in Cubasis 2.
19.Changing sounds during playback in auv3s such as digital d1, factory, fm Player 2 cause crash of cb3 or at best loss of audio or distorted audio.
20.C3 doesn't save the last state when it crashes and opened with an at least 5 minutes older version.
21.Ravenscroft unusable right now, high CPU.
22.Impossible to bring up iOS control center without selecting Help, Settings, or Shop menu.
23.When using the global mute and solo buttons for tracks the local track mute and solo buttons do not work.
24.Freezing an audio track that has an IAA effect doesn’t record that effect.
25.AUs don't stay in sync and play with wonky timing the higher the latency setting is.
26.Bluetooth audio sample rate mismatch.
27.When between black keys response is deactivated the velocity spread on the white keys is not properly adjusted.
28.Timeline scrubbing missing.

I did all of that and they are restored on iPad. But not iPhone. No restorable purchases available. Please advise.
@AmpApps
you forgot or overlooked my personal number one:
AUs don't stay in sync and play with wonky timing the higher the latency setting is.
Usable only on the lowest setting (that eats cpu and battery for breakfast of course)
Where can I actually change the latency settings? I only find "hardware latency" in the "audio" tab in Setup. Is this the right one?
1 Bluetooth audio is playing back at a very low sample rate.
2 Imported audio plays back at the wrong speed when using Bluetooth audio.
Works fine when using wired headphones.
