((( AURIA PRO ))) & ((( AURIA 2.0 ))) in the Store NOW!

@Matt_Fletcher_2000 it might be the snap settings: if you have snap set to bar and you try and reduce a 1 bar loop it would probably get deleted.

I have ipad air with latest IOS.  One bug and one question:
I have imported midi tracks from Gadget to Auria Pro.  The tracks are not uniform in length.  The two tracks (regions) that are drastically shorter have fewer notes in them.  I don't know if this is Korg or WML.
  Secondly, when I set up an external IOS synth to play the midi notes of a track, how do I then record this?  Can I directly convert it to audio?

WaveMachineLabs

When you import a MIDI file, Auria makes the length of the region equal to the last note it finds (the Note Off of the last not to be more specific).  You can always drag the end of the region using the trim handles if you need it to be longer.

If your external iOS synth is an IAA, you can easily record the audio.  Just record enable the track and press record.

If not, you can use Audiobus to record the audio.

 Rim, I record-enabled the track with midi data and it seemed to record nothing right over it.  I had animoog in the instrument slot and was getting the sound fine during playback, but during recording no sound and the notes are getting blanked out.  The record enable was on but this pic didn't catch it.  My short AB experiment had animoog crash issues.

Kaikoo

@juanconcho , You do not need Animoog on midi track or Audiobus. Use IAA slot on channel strip. Arm an audio track and silent other track then record a midi track to the track you are recording to... Hope this help see my photo. In my case, track 3 is Animoog empty audio track. Track 1 is the midi part I would like it become an auido track.  Note: Animoog runs very smooth on ABus ios9.1 .

juanconcho

I hadn't tried this method yet, Kaikoo, but this is what I get.  Notice the signal in the recording track even though no playback yet. Like feedback.  I've had success with animoog in AB before it just wasn't working yesterday, giving me the "busy" message in the input slot.

Rim, I upgraded to Auria pro but I see no upgrade even though it was successful. Does pro not download automatically after upgrade?

WaveMachineLabs

@juanconcho, Animoog doesn't output midi data (very few apps actually do).  What you want to do is record the audio, not the midi.  And the only way to record the audio of another app is to use Audiobus or to use IAA.

juanconcho

Rim, so I can't use the imported midi track to drive animoog and then record the outcome?

As soon as you purchase the upgrade to Auria Pro, your version "becomes" Auria Pro.  But there's a bug that prevents the new demo song from loading, and the new synths from showing on certain upgrades.  To fix this, just delete Auria from your iPad, then reinstall it from the app store (remember to choose Auria, not Auria Pro in the app store).  Then once Auria is reinstalled, go to the built-in store and press the Restore Purchases button.  Now you'll have the new demo song and all your synths will be working properly.

Make sure to back up all your projects before doing this!

Or you can record your midi notes into a midi track like Kaikoo said and have that midi track send midi info to animoog, then follow steps to record the audio output of animoog into Auria via IAA or audioBus. Hope it makes sense.

richardyot

You can definitely record MIDI from Animoog into Auria, I've done this a fair few times. Aftertouch doesn't get sent though.

Here are the steps:

Add Animoog as an instrument on a MIDI track:



Then in Animoog go to Setup and make sure MIDI is coming from and being sent to Auria:



Record-enable your MIDI track in Auria, set a count-in duration, press record and switch to Animoog and play. The MIDI notes will be recorded:

Thanks but I'm talking about having the midi tracks already in Auria.  From gadget.  I figured there would be a simple way to do it in Auria since when I play the midi track (with Animoog in the instrument slot) I can hear Animoog.  Would a mix down on the solo track do it? Still a work-around and I was really hoping to avoid the work-arounds.  I thought I could at least enable an audio track and rout the midi track playing animoog to it.  Maybe in the next version.  Oh well Auria doesn't owe me a dime and I'll figure it out.

Kaikoo

@ richardyot, nice tip! thank you, but need to buy midi out from Animoog

You have two ways of converting a MIDI track to audio:

1) Solo the MIDI track and go to File --> Mixdown, make sure to enable the option to import as a new track. You can then mute the MIDI track.

2) Select the MIDI track and go to Process --> Bounce Track in Place, this will convert your MIDI to audio and is destructive, the MIDI will be deleted.

juanconcho

Thanks everyone.  I'll try the mix down.  I tried bounce in place and got a blank region with no sound but will try again in case I did something wrong.

Animoog does output midi but it has to be purchased via an IAP.

Richard, wouldn't you need to select "SEND CH.PRESSURE" or "SEND POLY PRESSURE" to have Aftertouch sent to Auria?

richardyot

@Jocphone yes you're certainly right - I hadn't tested that. Will try later if I get the chance.

Rafael_laurenti

Hey @WaveMachineLabs how can I send you a project? I just lost a few hours of work, after I added Altispace to an Aux channel all the audio from Auria stopped, and I only got the audio from Altispace, then I restarted Auria, and the project doesn't load anymore, I had Stroke Machine opened on a Midi Track and a few guitars and a Bass recorded as audio

I'm interested in this scenario too

Hi! Auria Pro is not working to trigger Drum Perfect via MIDI.

Inside Auria Pro, in the MIDI channel, I have a previosly recorded MIDI data, and in the MIDI chanel strip I set All in "Channel", All in "Input" and "Drum Perfect" in "Output". Inside Drum Perfect, I set "Auria" as "Midi Source" and "Drum Perfect" as "Midi Destination", and "Background Audio" is set to "On". Yet, when I play back the MIDI data, Auria Pro fails to triger Drum Perfect. It's not a wrong mapping issue, because I tried opening the piano roll and pressing all of the notes, none of them being able to trigger the sounds of Drum perfect.

Am I missing something, or this is a known bug of Auria Pro or Drum Perfect? Any hel will be much appreciated.

All the best!

richardyot

@Rafael_laurenti you should try loading a snapshot of your project if possible, an earlier snapshot that predates adding the IAA effect preferably. I found during beta that IAA was a great way of corrupting projects (Rim fixed a few!).

Load your project and when it crashes relaunch Auria. You should be prompted to load a snapshot. You may need to attempt this a few times before it works, but it should eventually work.

richardyot

@theconnactic You might need to record-enable your track.

Rafael_laurenti

Tks @richardyot I ended up importung the audios to a new project, I'll just have to redo the midi drums, to bad to know that there is a bug with altisoace, it's the best reverb that I have here, anyway, thank you for your help

Matt_Fletcher_2000

@juanconcho

There is another way to play midi to Animoog and record it's audio live. This varies from @Richardyot 's two bounce methods because due to it being live you can switch over to Animoog and mess with its knobs and XY pad (nice!) and have that modulation recorded in the audio too.

• You create a Midi track with your midi in it (track 1)

• in the midi control panel you DO NOT set the instrument to Animoog, you set it to none

• you then set the midi output to Animoog and in Animoog ensure that the midi input is set to Auria. (Theoretically you should only have to do one of these, not both - you could try that too)

• you'll then have Auria midi driving Animoog

• create a new audio track (track 2) and in the FX set Animoog as the IAA

• you'll then hear the sound of Animoog coming through track 2 live. While track 1 is sending it midi.

• then just arm track 2 and record.

Of course the above method would also work with AB instead of IAA on track 2 if you prefer.

richardyot

@Matt_Fletcher_2000 that's a nice tip!

juanconcho

Matt this method hasn't worked for me because when I arm the audio track, it just picks up the mic from the ipad.
It is what I'm shooting for because I do want to fiddle with animoog during recording.  Maybe there's something I'm still doing wrong.

Tones4Christ

Maybe something in the Auria settings page?

I think that's a bug that will be fixed in the next update AFAIK.
