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.

Hey,
sorry that the update still didn't arrive. I'm also not quite sure yet what's causing your problem, I'd like to fix it properly and it would be great if I had more information.
Especially the settings thing you mentioned now means that Xequence almost certainly crashes at some point, even if it doesn't seem like it.
Could you possibly make a screen recording that shows the following sequence (Xequence 😂) of events:
1) You launch Xequence fresh so that the splash screen shows
2) You go into the settings and change eg. "Ruler Auto-Dismiss".
3) You do some of the stuff you normally do
4) You kill Xequence by going to the multitasking screen and swiping it off
5) You re-launch Xequence and go again to the settings screen, showing that the change to "Ruler Auto-Dismiss" didn't stick
There must be something "special" that you're doing that nobody else does! (not saying that's a bad thing. But it's a thing! 😊) I'd like to get to the bottom of this.
Thanks!
Thanks for the help, will have a look ASAP!
Thanks! Fresh install of Xequence here (I've just bought it) and I confirm the "Xequence unexpectly quit" whenever I launch it again after a proper kill. Settings are never saved as well.
iPad 8th gen, iOS 15.7.1
Have a great day and thank you!
Thanks, trying to investigate. It seems like iOS isn't notifying Xequence that you're leaving the app. Is there anything "special" about the way you do so? Or do you just swipe up from the bottom of the screen, as usual?
I am on 15.7.1 too and don't seem to have this effect
Thanks @tja
@jsmonzani @JMmusic when you're in Xequence, then go to the multitasking screen, but then go RIGHT BACK INTO XEQUENCE (not kill it) by tapping on its card, does the app unexpectedly restart anyway? (splash screen appears)
Thanks for your time @SevenSystems !
Unfortunately there's no automatic way to do this, but after recording you can use PROCESS -> "Controllers to own tracks" to separate them from the notes, and then, if you want, move the controller clip to the track that contains the existing controller clips, then select all on that track, and then PROCESS -> "Join".
Thanks a lot, appreciate it.
Yes this issue is extremely odd -- Xequence is normally widely known for being essentially bug-free, so this is something that I definitely want to see fixed. Thanks for your help with that so far!
You’re welcome, I’m sure it’s a great app and you’re gonna find a fix.
I’ve tried to hard reset my iPad just to see if it helped but unfortunately no luck.
Thanks... it does seem like the problem can occur on iOS 15 as well, according to @jsmonzani 's report. I'm currently investigating an Audiobus-related problem, and when that's sorted, I'll push an update to see if it brings any improvements
Oh can't wait to test it! Thanks!
All great here and no more issue, thank you so much @SevenSystems !
Astounding, but appreciated 😄 Have fun!
Full support for Split View and Stage Manager is coming:
Now we only need AUM to support it 😎 @j_liljedahl
Ohhhh, yessssss 🤗🤗🤗
Ahhhh, crapy useless stuff...
Ohhhh, yessss again 😅🤗
But sometimes people want such stuff! 😄
I don't see for what exactly.
You can already have one App full screen, 2 Apps with 3 different versions using the screen and can have lots of Apps additionally as slideover - and you can easily and fast switch between them.
If you ignore the strange mode where Stage Manager has one App in a small (useless) window in the middle of the screen, Stage Manager does not seem to offer anything over what we already have.
And this useless mode .... why would I use any App as small window in the middle of the screen, instead of using the whole display?!?
Really.
This is great to see! So with split view it’ll support 50% screen size right? Is going smaller than that also possible. Also, any chance for bi-directional drag n drop? Thanks
I really enjoy stage manager and think it’s great btw. It really helps me maximize my efficiency. It also adds a split screen type of support to apps that wouldn’t otherwise have it. Everyone is free to pick their preference, but I like it.
It'll support it, but the buttons will become really small
(currently, to fit all buttons in the toolbars etc., it scales them down until they fit. So, they'll become even smaller than in the screenshot above if you go 50/50. If it's not too much trouble, I might look into either making the toolbars scrollable instead, or maybe grouping buttons into menus.)
No Drag & Drop for now, sorry! But if Xequence 3 ever becomes a thing, then chances are good!
