Nope, no stems just a stereo track.

This weekend I used my Focusrite iTrack Dock to record guitars, vocals, and midi keyboard with no issues. Pretty cool device. The only workaround I had figure out was my M-Audio keystation 88es doesn't seem to work through the USB midi port. It works though when I have it undocked and connected through the CCK. I wonder if I just need to power the keyboard with an external source since my rock band 3 guitar that I sometimes use as a synth axe works when powered via battery. I ended up using the Apollo midi over bluetooth app using my iphone to send MIDI to iPad and it worked perfectly. Response was just as fast as direct connection. Routed everything through Audiobus into separate Auria tracks.

Solo track, render to WAV, rinse and repeat until you have your stems. Annoying, but it's how I render stems with Korg Gadget. I copy and paste each rendered WAV into AudioShare for later use. In related news:  ALL KORG APPS ARE CURRENTLY ON SALE Korg Gadget is down to $28.99 from $38.99. A pricier app than most, but it's really awesome: http://www.korg.com/us/products/software/korg_gadget_for_ipad/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGfaJdMhcuE

Anyone else check out Propellerhead Take (for iOS) yet? I downloaded it the day it came out but didn't have a chance to mess with it til today. I've got this chronic problem where I only get song ideas when I'm as far from my gear as humanly possible, and I very frequently forget things if I don't scratch them down real fast. As a result I have literally hours of me whispering tunes into the iPod Voice Recorder app that are often difficult to translate back into the DAW when I'm back home because of their haphazard nature. Anyway, this thing is exactly the perfect tool for me. It lets you record up to three simultaneous tracks, has three metronome options, built-in effects, and it's super easy to navigate. So I can lay down a solid pre-sequenced three-part idea, without having to tell myself "okay here's the bass," "this pad line comes in a quarter note after the bass starts," etc. This is what I had hoped to be able to do with the iMaschine app, but iMaschine doesn't have a step editor and it is a loving nightmare trying to tap melodies live into that thing on an iPod. The Take demo video is cheesy as shiiiiiiiiiit but it at least gets the point across. This thing rules. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu2zmzCWEn4 Radiapathy fucked around with this message at 00:51 on Aug 1, 2014 |

lol is right. I semi-redact my statement about low latency. It responds great, if you're only hitting one pad at a time. Trying to play two or more at once = lovely latency for iMPC.

Just picked up samplr. I got the focus rite dock and it seems to work pretty well but I think my cables are all hosed up or something cause one synth sounds fine and my other one sounds hollow when I route everything into my mixer -> effects -> mixer -> focus rite Anyway. I love the Waldorf nave app. That poo poo can loving devour time.

OK, I've run into issues with my workflow. Here's what I want to do: Music coming from synths, iMPC, Figure, etc. > Audiobus effects > Loopy > Launchpad My problems: iMPC can't use AB, but AudioCopy works fine Loopy's AudioCopy implementation is out of date I can't record x number of bars of synth lines directly into Launchpad/AC Figure works with everything, but is obviously limited My question is: is there a Loopy replacement that supports AC?

Thank gently caress for landscape mode. So annoying it didn't have that before. Too bad that even with its simple sequencer deal I still am retarded about programming drums.

Probably not, it's a butt-ugly interface and Jordan, so it won't go on sale either.

Kinda bummed this thread has slowed down so much but Holderness is using the new app bundle system for their great Audiobus/IAA effects, which is also on sale, so get that. Also don't update to iOS 8 yet, lots of apps (especially Korg ones and Animoog, also Cubasis and Auria) are broken/in review.

Animoog just got an update (even with AudioBus support) and Auria too.  Regarding this thread, what would you like to see? I know the OP is incredibly out of date and I must admit that there is so much stuff happening nowadays on iOS, that I can't really keep up with all of it anymore. If anybody wants to create a new and more up-to-date thread, go ahead. I can send you all of the pictures from the OP, if you need them.

Prophet dropped today -- it's Arturia's Prophet 5/VS without the 5 (just the wavetable part). Haven't picked it up yet but seeing as I've never screwed around with the wavetable bit of the VS I may try it out. Honestly I'd rather have the 5 though.

I wish more of these instruments would integrate with Gadget rather than Tabletop. Tabletop's phrase editor is just sooooooo bad.

Arturia contracted out to Retronyms to develop the app so Tabletop is a given. I'm fairly surprised that Audiobus made it in -- they usually make a point of not supporting them. I don't think Gadget has an exposed API to allow other instruments.

It's sort of a shame he doesn't make AudioShare a freemium app because the AudioShare SDK allows transferring multiple files between apps, unlike the latest AudioCopy app. AudioCopy is free, but the AudioShare app isn't, however.

He's posted a lot on the AB forums about how pithy revenue from apps is after taxes and Apple's cut. Even expensive apps are cheap by VST standards, five bucks is worth it to loosen Apple's hold on the filesystem.

Even expensive apps are cheap by VST standards, five bucks is worth it to loosen Apple's hold on the filesystem. Getting into music making with an iPad really is dirt cheap compared to a laptop + DAW + VSTs trifecta. pre:32 GB iPad mini with Retina display: $399 Korg Gadget app: $39 AudioShare: $4 Audiobus: Free + $5 IAP AudioCopy: Free Final total: $447 Fortunately there are some lower cost alternatives. REAPER can be had for $60 or $225, and Mac owners can buy Logic Pro X for $200. And there are quite a few good free and inexpensive VST and AU instruments and effects out there. Certainly there's a lot of piracy involved in upper end DAW and VST software. Ignoring that, iPad music apps are a paradise for production noobs of various stripes. I'm rather fluent with Live, REAPER and Renoise but I'd much rather sit outdoors with my iPad, headphones and something good to sip on.

Does anyone have any experience with the iConnectMIDI hardware? 90% of the time I'll be using my ipad as a midi controller for my actual synths when at my desk and when I'm travelling I'll be using things like gadget and nanostudio. I'll maybe get a few instruments besides alchemy but it will mostly be used as a controller. Speaking of instruments, I was also looking at the arturia isem and wondered if anyone would recommend it or point me to something else.

I know for a fact that I'm getting Nave and Gadget but I'm waiting to see if they go on thanksgiving / christmas sales, and I'm looking at Animoog and Samplr as well. isem seems to have gotten really good reviews (along with imini) but I thought I would ask here before buying it. I have an actual MS-20 so I don't need to get the ipad one, and I like nano studio enough to where I don't need a full production app beyond that and gadget. I'm also debating between Lemur and Mididesigner to use as a control surface for my hardware synths/effects and DAW so opinions on either one of those would be great.
