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.

Audio recording in Drambo

I read some threads, looked in the manual, and did some trial and error, and I still can’t reliably record audio using the TAPE icon in Drambo. I have 3 channels - 2 are bringing audio in from hardware, and they are bussed to the third. The third one records fine, but the 2 main channels don’t record anything, even when armed. All I want to do is record my live jams through Drambo since it seemed silly hosting Drambo in AUM just to record.

I couldn’t find a simple tutorial that explained the whole in/out thing and all that. Also, just in general, routing audio and adding new tracks in Drambo is still kind of a pain in the ass.

  • I just tap the tape icon on any track I want to record, and hit record. I don’t do it much, but it always seems to work just fine for me.

    How are you routing the two main channels to the third one? Drambo records the output of each channel so if those are silent the recorded files will be as well. A screenshot or video would help.

    Screen shots.




  • The first thing I see there is that the IN1/2 and IN3/4 are not armed to record. Although maybe that’s just in this screenshot?

  • @slicetwo When you look at IN1/2 in the track (rack) view (not Main), is the signal output correctly connected? It's the "signal" icon at the far right of the rack. It needs to be connected to the track input at the left, or to a processed version of that signal.

    @mistercharlie ya. Just not armed on this one.

  • Howdy @uncledave and @mistercharlie, just bumping this in case it got lost in the shuffle. Thanks, mates!
