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 Store

Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

Audio Analysis with "auGEN X" and "Oscilloscope" as AU on iOS / iPadOS!

I simply love to dabble around with sound generators and audio analysis tools.

Much like @Blue_Mangoo did for several of his videos to compare compressors and other musical algorithms.

The problem is, to find tools that allow to do so on an iPad.

I have lots of sound generating apps and also lots of apps that show an oscilloscope, a spectral analysis or even a spectogram.

But most of them do not work as IAA or AU App, some do not even work on files, but require an audio interface.

Enter:

"auGEN X" from auDSP, @auDSPr
https://apps.apple.com/app/augen-x/id1439844878

and soon, "Oscilloscope" from Mani Consulting Limited, @Blue_Mangoo
https://testflight.apple.com/join/fodz4Iom

Now, both Apps are awesome!

Thank you for purchasing auGEN X, auDSPr’s first audio app! On first glance, auGEN X appears to be just a simple oscillator and noise generator — which, in essence, it is. (I actually first started working on the app because I needed something for testing plug-ins and couldn’t find anything that did exactly what I wanted.) But as you begin to use auGEN X, you soon realize that it behaves more like a musical instrument. The controls are fast and intuitive — and precise. You’ll find that you can quickly and easily explore the vast array of sounds that are possible from a mere oscillator and noise generator. You can design sounds and be all kinds of creative! And because auGEN X is an AUv3 Audio Unit Extension, you can run multiple instances in your favorite Audio Unit Host (such as GarageBand, Cubasis, AUM, apeMatrix, or BeatMaker 3) to automate it and record your cool sounds. And starting with iOS 11, auGEN X can receive MIDI in and BPM sync from the AU Host for even more control and fun!
auGEN X is precise enough to be used for serious audio engineering while being expressive enough to be used creatively. Our goal is for auGEN X to be one of your Essentials in your audio toolbox. We hope you enjoy it and we’re excited to see and hear the cool things that you do with auGEN X!

Oscillosope

As Oscillosope is still in TestFlight, i cannot provide links, beside this:

The link to the developer on the AppStore: https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/mani-consulting-limited-company/id1475107602

This App is both an Oscilloscope and a Spectrogram App, allowing different modes to blend between them:

YouTube:

What can you do with those Apps?

You can, for example generate a sine sweep - with lots of options - and display it's spectrogram before and after a compressor App, in AUM, for example.
This allows to visually see and compare compressors, limiters, saturators and so on.
Loving it!

Finally, this is possible on iOS / iPadOS!

Going to create and add some screenshots...
