Is there any app/set of apps that could be used to sync an ipad and an android tablet together for jamming? Just syncing a step sequencer to a clock would be basic enough. something with OSC and using a computer seems like the only way though, right?

Just a heads-up: If you're still running iOS 7 and use AudioBus, don't download the update that came out last week. I did and didn't notice the app just plain didn't work 20 minutes before I was supposed to perform live  edit: Good thing I was only going to use it for reverb effects (AUF:X Space) so I could replace it with my Kaoss Pad, but still that was pretty dumb a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 18:11 on Dec 21, 2015 |

We're overloaded with system updates and keeping them squeeky clean from bugs is a Sisyphean task.

I wish iOS had an easier way of reverting to at least the previous version, though. Then again it'd probably require keeping old versions of all apps ever on the server and that sounds kind of insane. Also they just fixed AudioBus for iOS7 again

How do the popular synth apps do on the iPad Pro? I think Korg's been using one running Gadget to show off the new Nanos at NAMM, but I otherwise haven't heard or seen anything about its adoption among music app users. I'd be tempted to replace my iPad Air 1 with one if I weren't scared of it being a potentially broken experience. And I imagine that you can't splitscreen portrait-orientation apps even if they'd theoretically fit on the screen stacked one on top of the other, to say nothing of how Audiobus would handle it. It's a shame because the obvious draw of the Pro to me is the splitscreen capability. Anyway, have a Cool New Thing: http://www.synthtopia.com/content/2016/01/22/yamaha-wireless-midi-adaptors-add-bluetooth-to-your-existing-gear/ Aside from the potential of turning almost any controller into a Gadget controller, I hope this'll incentivize more people to use iOS creatively with their older gear in other ways. TC-Data (MIDI controller sister app to TC-11) has been out for a few years now but a (hopefully) cheap, easy Bluetooth adapter would make interfacing it with, say, a Juno-106 a MUCH more compelling proposition than it would've been in the past.

Anyone tried Arturia iSpark yet? I'm curious because the description mentions physical modeling and VA synthesis but the manual only talks about samples. i must be missing something because selling a sampler as a drum synth is a really lovely thing to do. Hardware spark has a modular ui for building sounds but that seems to be missing here.

Gadget's usability and live potential just went through the roof - it finally got advanced MIDI support, including multiple channels  edit: Now if it only got MIDI file import I might start to seriously consider remaking all my NanoStudio poo poo in Gadget... a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 08:50 on Mar 28, 2016 |

Is anyone making use of the iPad live loops feature on Garageband's app using non-apple loops? I'm going to see about messing around with that, you know, because of the implication.

Does anybody here use the IAP sampler instruments in Gadget? The Bilbao and Abu Dabhi? I was wondering if I should get either, both, some external sampler app, or just forgo the entire notion of using samples on the iPad.

I was wondering if I should get either, both, some external sampler app, or just forgo the entire notion of using samples on the iPad. Both have been praised and recommended a few times in this thread, but I don't personally have them yet. I figured I'd wait until the next promotion. A lot of us including myself use and really love the standalone Samplr, but it's not exactly the same thing. I'd easily recommend it tho.

I'd recommend them (Bilbao if you only get one) if your workflow is Gadget-heavy. Watch a video or two and that will be enough to show you all their features. Abu Dhabi is a distilled Egoist and Bilbao is a very distilled Samplr, if you're looking for more full-featured apps.

All three are great for different reasons. I really like samplr but have had awesome results with the other two.

These are probably dumb questions but do apps like iMaschine2 and Samplr come with samples already or have the ability to record samples? I am worried about the space I have on my iPad/iPhone for storing lots of samples and am just curious how these typically work. Is it possible to connect my iDevice to my laptop and load samples from my computer to my phone? I am looking for an app that will allow me to sketch out ideas and then push those into Ableton Live and would appreciate any recommendations. I did check out the video for Samplr which looked really cool with tons of ways to manipulate/cut/loop/play samples but wanted to be sure that if I put an idea down in the app, I can get it into my DAW fairly easily.

There are lots of different ways ranging from Dropboxing/emailing poo poo to yourself to music apps that have their own built in cloud services to using iOS-compatible physical storage media to dedicated routing and packaging apps like Audiobus and AudioShare. If you're serious about really messing around with this stuff then I'd look into those two apps (Audiobus and AudioShare) in particular. They're a few dollars each and virtually everything works with them. The first one is a routing platform for instruments/effects/recorders/samplers and the second lets you easily move stuff about.

Electric Bugaloo posted:Yes. I ended up getting iMaschine2 and am having a blast so far. The step sequencer is a really cool feature and I'm looking forward to uploading a few audio tracks into ableton that I've made. One thing that was interesting and I was wondering if there is an explanation for it is when I play a loop I made in imaschine, the sound is super clean even with a lot of elements. Is there some automated EQing that it does to make sure the sounds balance out? I just know that when using samples in ableton, I have to do quite a bit of EQing to get the right balance. Again, probably a noob question.

Whats the best sounding small, cheap, solid state combo? Need it for noodling in my apartment where I cant have it louder than TV volume. That meant the twin reverb had to go. Vox DA5, Fender Mustang I, Roland Micro Cube, Yamaha THR10?

^^^^Get that app^^^^Electric Bugaloo in the Synth Thread posted:Ok, so I downloaded the Model 15 app on Tuesday and I've had a few opportunities to dick around with it on an iPad Air 1 and iPhone 6 since then. So far I've felt fine on both devices, although the older iPad has felt a bit warm during use. I admittedly haven't pushed it super hard with a buttload of other apps running yet but it feels snappy enough that I'd trust it to be fine. The "patch bay" interface for routing to other apps/places is a clever touch.

What's a good, inexpensive way to get a microphone connected to my iphone for garage band, to record guitars and vocals? I was thinking of getting an SM57 and then getting that adapter that has phantom power, I forgot the name. Or is it better to get the microphones that are built for iOS, like the iRig mics?

Has anyone messed with Ableton Link yet? I just saw that Gadget has a setting for it. I'm also trying to link my Animoog/TC-11 on my iPad mini into Live via a Bluetooth/Midi/Local Network connection but so far have not had anything work, is anyone aware of a simple way to do this? I'm thinking my iPad model might be old for Bluetooth Midi? It's model ME276LL/A.
