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.

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

I did it for Drone Day: Move #37

edited May 2023 in Creations

Hi folks. Saturday is Drone Day of course. https://droneday.org/

I’m going to be busy between now and then, so I went ahead and did one anyway, (oo-er missus!) a couple of days early, with an accompanying vid, all done on iPad, natch.

This is Move #37:

In March 2016 in Seoul, South Korea, an exhibition tournament of the ancient game of Go was staged between international master Lee Sodol, and Google Deepmind’s AI, AlphaGo. Go is acknowledged to be much harder than chess for computers to solve; the game cannot be brute forced by processing power alone. Creativity is required.

Move #37 of the second game saw AlphaGo make a move no human would make. The AI would eventually win 4 of the 5 matches. This event, the first defeat of a human Go champion by an AI, has become to be seen as the advent of a new paradigm: the first truly creative AI. The dawn of a new golden age for machine intelligence? Or the first glimmers of the twilight of human supremacy? Perhaps it is both.

Virtually everything you hear is the great, late noise app Giant Isopod, gone from the store but still on my machine, variously manipulated with sundry FX and File Player loops. No keyboards, or MIDI generators used. Recorded in AUM, mastered to AudioShare.

We don’t need no stinking Final Cut Pro either, apparently…

Cthonicist world is a Logic-free zone. In every sense. Enjoy!

  • Blimey.

    Beautiful both sonically and visually, and remarkably calming and transporting.

    Which probably means I’m going to be easily softened up for the forthcoming AI apocalypse! 🤣

  • Beautiful indeed. Thanks

  • Excellent… a nice early entry indeed (as Frankie would have said)
    I enjoyed the video as well… I’m sure when the flies appeared there was some buzzing going on…

    @bygjohn : I, for one, bow down before our new AI overlords. (you know. Just in case…)

    @BerlinFx : Thank you! Glad you liked it :) I’m still experimenting with video, trying to find something as fast but as useful in this domain as the ‘AUM into AudioShare’ workflow I now have on the sound side. I like messing with imagery, I’m even thinking of getting a GoPro to shoot my own stock footage, but damn, it takes a long time! I feel about it now as I felt about audio when I first started messing around on iPad four years ago. Onwards and upwards. :smile:

    @GeoTony : I see what you did there :) There are no flies on you!

  • I like it!
