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.

  • Oh jesus another synth! This looks cool too!! My wallet is crying

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/66hvcgkexfyuesd/Mela4SAMU.zip?dl=0

    There's a text-document inside the the zip file with a brief description for each of the presets.
    Enjoy :sunglasses:

  • is 4 supposed to replace 3?

  • OMG.

    I never bought so much Synths in such short time:

    Tera Pro
    Trooper
    ID700
    Nambu
    ButterSynth
    Hilda

    and now Mela 4

    For now it's more 'complementary' until Mela 4 gets full polyphony support.
    So one doesn't replace the other.

  • Oh, @Jumpercollins - you did not post a link ...

    App "Mela 4 – AUv3: Synth, FX, MIDI"

    Developer: Nikolozi Meladze
    URL: https://apps.apple.com/app/mela-4-auv3-synth-fx-midi/id1668299428

    Minimum OS Version: 16.0
    Universal: Yes
    Price: $14.99

    DESCRIPTION:

    Mela is a modular music-making tool that scales with your needs. With its intuitive interface, you can seamlessly build fully custom monophonic synthesisers, unique audio effects, and complex MIDI processors. Mela can run as a standalone app on iOS and macOS or as an AUv3 plug-in inside your favourite DAW such as AUM, Drambo, Logic Pro and many more.

    A Mela preset is made up of ordered modules arranged on lanes that process audio and MIDI signals. Each lane can receive and send signals to and from the host or other lanes using buses. The modulator modules can modulate any parameter of any module on any lane. The lanes and modules can be easily added, removed or rearranged making the preset as complex or as simple as desired. Mela comes with 38 modules, with new ones added with every update. The following are some examples from different categories.

    • MIDI processors: arpeggiator, chord, note echo, scale, strummer
    • Synth building blocks: virtual-analog oscillator, FM operator, noise, filter, amp envelope, distortion
    • Modulators: envelope follower, envelope generator, LFO, macro control, MIDI source, random
    • Audio effects: chorus, delay, flanger, phaser, compressor
    • Utility: level metering, MIDI logger, audio oscilloscope

    Inside a host, Mela can be loaded as one of the following plug-in types: Instrument, Audio Effect or MIDI Processor. The only difference between them is the number of audio and MIDI inputs and outputs. Otherwise, the features are identical and a preset created in one type can be opened by another.

    Mela's capabilities continuously improve, evolve and expand based on its long-term vision and user feedback. Feel free to get in touch for anything Mela related.

    Looks good.

    Would be cool if you can custom colour, different lanes.

    Modular is the way. If able to add more modules with updates ( paid )

    Its just a question of making the best app.

  • Yes, waiting for the bundle!

  • I got a little 'promotion' too from Nikolozi :sunglasses:

    Great!

    Tried to download, but that does not work.

    It requires some "collaboration" with my real name!
    Probably from the iTunes account?!?

    Will not do this, of course.

    A strange sort of download!

  • Ah, it's a share from iCloud and requires to sort of subscribe with your Apple ID.

    This is not an ideal method for sharing, TBH 😅

    Here's the DropBox link...

    I didn't put the file on iCloud for sharing that was @Nikolozi 's decision :sunglasses:
    Usually it's enough to let the device you use stay logged in to your iCloud account...

  • Great, @Samu
    I got it, thanks!!!

    iCloud does not allow anonymous downloads, as it seems.

    I am too security aware to leave my finger prints all over the internet 😅

    Is that what you are seeing on the iPad? I just assumed it would give the download button to everyone. This is from the Brave browser for example. With "Download a Copy" you don't need to sign in with your Apple ID.

    Anyway, I'll host all preset downloads on GitHub instead.

  • Sorry to ask again is 4 a replacement to 3? when 4 has poly will it have everything 3 has?

    On Nikolozi’s website he explains that in order for him to fulfill some of the user requests for Mela 3 he had to rebuild the architecture of the plugin to meet those requests. This has brought us to Mela 4. Here is a link with a description of what has changed and his vision for Mela 4’s future.

    If you just sign out of iCloud.com first, then you can download anonymously.

  • I will note Mela 3 has been one of my most-used, favorite synths. Unmatched quality of sound for producing otherworldly, rumbling and screaming leads.

    That's not easily possible, as you may know.
    This changes lots and lots of things on the iPad - contacts, favorites, Find my iPhone and whatever else.

    Go to iCloud.com using your web browser and sign out. Don't sign out elsewhere. You must've signed in online and then forgotten about it. Doing it this way won't change anything. If it's important that you remain signed in continually online for some reason, then after you download the file just sign back in.

    No, I only saw what I posted above.
    It asked to collaborate with you, based on my real name from my Apple ID / iTunes account.

    That's fantastic, thanks 🤗

    Did you also try it with 'Private' mode?
