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.

    Another Noise bank. The link should work now, the file was inadvertently restricted.

    Just a note, you can import a bank of 8 samples directly from the zip created when you export from koala sampler… I presume any zip file of 8 samples will work. You can then add pictures and dexcriptions. This is quicker than creating a custom bank in app.

    TOP TIP!

    Thank you.

    Here's some crazy weird guitar stuff with lots of FX. I created 4 banks with one preset each.

    The samples of banks 2 and 3 were made within about an hour with Aum, Tonex for iPad and some FX plug-ins.
    Were actually meant as a test, but what the heck... Next time I'll take more time.

    Samples of banks 1 and 4 I created over 20 years ago (bank 1 was put through the wringer with Prosoniq SonicWork on a PowerMac) and never used them, until now.

    First import the individual banks, then the individual presets (do NOT unpack the preset zips). The presets then end up under "User".
    When you select a preset, the corresponding bank should be loaded (preset "Guitar Psych 1" loads bank "Guitar Psych 1",
    preset "Guitar Psych 2" loads bank "Guitar Psych 2" and so on). If not, for whatever reason, load the appropriate bank for the preset
    and then overwrite the preset.

    Note: for presets 2, 3 and 4 the trip speed is set to 32 or 64 and all samples are activated. If you activate only a few samples, it is recommended to reduce the speed (e.g. 8). Experimenting with Max Crossfade Time is sometimes helpful too.

    The first time ever that I share something via Dropbox, so don't beat me if the download doesn't work right away 😀

    Just typed "presets" in the search box.
    Are you sure you want to move them all? That looks like a lot of work 😇

    Is there an ideal length for samples, or a maximum length/file size that should be observed? I assume the files themselves can be any format, even mixed, but someone please correct me if necessary.

    *Edit: I appear to have my answers, except for the max file size one. Probably like anything, as long as you want but performance may eventuall suffer

  • GUBGUB

    I'm trying to create banks and import them, but am running into problems. Unless I'm mistaken, the samples have to be zipped, but they should not be in a folder inside the zip file Otherwise they won't import.. Is that right? . Both the files app and koala enclose zip files in a folder before compressing, as far as I can tell. What's the quickest, hopefully native, way to zip files on Ios without packaging them that way, if that indeed is my stumbling block

    If you export a bank of 8 samples from koala it should import the created zip file without a problem, I'm sorry I haven't tried with any other technique

    For the files app, go into the folder containing the 8 wav files. Then do select. Then select the 8 wav files (and optionally a jpg and a txt file). Then compress. You get archive.zip out. It has no internal folder in it. Rename this. Then import it into Noises using the import option via the hamburger icon in Noises (upper right).
