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.

Free Single Cycle Editor, useful for iOS -runs in browser

  • That is very cool indeed. B) I’m thinking Animoog timbres, or maybe wavetable material. Good for just experimenting and learning too.
    Thanks for sharing this. :)

  • yeah animoog and knave will surely get the business over here :)

  • This is pretty neat! Just about the only thing missing is manual 'draw mode' :)

    if that's something that's feasible in a browser you might want to give the dev a shout, he seems like the kind of guy that likes good ideas.

  • Is there an iOS synth that is able to play waveforms that you can draw right on the screen?

  • Caustic's SubSynth lets you draw waveforms.

    I believe Addictive Synth allows that. At least the Micro version I have does it.

    Caustic PCM Synth supports these SCW samples, too.

    Sunvox.

    Thank you guys! I will have a look!

  • Does PPG Infinite let you draw waveforms too?

  • Drawing a static waveform isn’t as useful as you’d think – you could run through a whole bunch of different shapes and walk away thinking that they all sounded the same (at least, that’s what people who invested the many tens of thousands to purchase a Fairlight CMI often found). The additional thing needed is a specific evolution of sound from one wave shape to another wave shape, via a particular transformation (or transformations). Hence, you’d need to draw at least two waveforms and interpolate between them, to make anything like a ‘natural’ sound with some kind of movement, otherwise all the single wave cycles you draw will sound very similar.

    Also, there’s Kamata.

  • One fun thing to do with this on-line waveform editor is to leave the play-button on and mess with the settings.
    It's nice for all types of glitchy stuff. In practice treat the single-cycle wave as a sample oscillator, play it at different pitches and mess with the entire source wave while it's being played back.

    This would be a good base for a synth.app with added modulation capabilities similar to the apesoft apps where every parameter can be modulated :)

    a synth with 2 sample oscillators and some others that lets you insert an au fx before the mixer and filter for each oscillator would be nice to have ...

    The ordering of the 'blocks' would be a nice bonus, ie. optionally mix/multiply/ring/warp/phase mod the waves before passing them thru a filter or control the amplitude of the waves before they are mixed/multiplied etc etc.
    (For added mayhem, let one of the waves control the parameters of the other wave on a per-sample/cycle basis).

    I really like the sound of pitched noise as waveform not much lets you do that ...
    i was fucking around with paulstretch and a pitch shifter yesterday ...

    I love the sound of SID noise :)

  • Noise as a modulator is a thing I’m into.

  • If I used this to save out 16 single cycle waveforms, which maybe evolve one to the next, can anyone talk me through what I would need to do to create a new AniMoog timbre that could be loaded and used?

  • Great app. Once you have rendered a wave, is there a way to record it on your ipad (without having to use a laptop). For exemple how can I record this one directly on my ipad : http://scw.sheetsofsound.com/render/file/wav_1520422623495.wav
