    I guess that when you change AUM tempo, the audioshare loops tempo won't change with it

    The built in file players change speed when you change tempo, so it stays in sync given that you have told it the original tempo of the file, or the number of beats in it if it's a loop. This also works when synced with Link.

    Is this intelligent tempo change that also keeps the pitch unchanged, or is increasing or decreasing the tempo going to change the pitch of the audio file?

    I know many will want to compare it to a typical DAW, and miss the timeline editor, but the focus with AUM is on a live workflow, and the routing flexibility. If you need a powerful but lightweight mixer but don't want to fire up a whole DAW environment, then AUM is there for you :)

    For those wondering, not having a timeline editor can be a good thing. Might seem scary at first, and highly limited, but in the end what it does is creates boundaries to work in.

    Add in the limitations of iOS at the moment, with it's big nasty boundary of having to switch apps, and AUM will definitely have it's own feel. I'm thinking building mix upon mix within AUM will be the best way to go about things, because trying to do it all at once might be a little too hectic.

    This...lol

    As far as the auria comment, I tend to agree. But until Auria comes to my phone, I’m very much looking forward to Wednesday.

    Anyone know how to get into the App Store with l33t hax0ring? I mean, AUM is just sitting there!

    Though, only four more hours until the 24th in New Zealand.

    It's just a mixer! Ok, a modular one with a bunch of extra features but just a mixer at the end of it all.

    I'll buy it the second it lands and I don't want to deter anyone from helping to send the little j_lillas to college but if you're a happy Auria user and can't identify a need for a specific feature in AUM, I'd just stick with the Auria Pro mixer. It's awfully nice. It's not quite as full featured as AUM but can do a lot of the core features—it just requires more resources to do it (that's only a presumption at this point, obvi). Of course, Auria Pro has a boatload of other features AUM doesn't have like automation and having your recordings appear on a multi-track timeline as soon as you're finished!

    THIS ^^^

    While I come from the DAW folk I find it increasingly alien to think of music in terms of timeliness full of coloured speckled blocks. Of course this is informed by what I do musically but I personally look forward to this particular piece of software very much and will pay whatever is required, without any hesitation.

    That's probably also because I am a settled middle aged who doesn't need to split the stash between videogames, dope and other crazy shit. Just music and girls (meaning my wife and daughters :D)

  • kobamotokobamoto

    if you ever listen to Jonatans music it's easy to see why he makes stuff the way he does. this is the key... would be nice to have more devs with this kind of synergy and no he's not the only one around but you can tell he's got a creative stake in his own apps.

    It changes the pitch as well, just like a tape recorder or vinyl.

    I might add time-stretching later, but high quality stretch algorithms are very expensive and CPU hungry, and they still have artifacts. If you find another app that does stretching well, you could pre-time-stretch the file there first if you want to change the tempo after recording it.

    It will be released 24th, 12.00 noon CET. So the exact local time will differ depending on your time zone!

    Bloody marvellous!

    Another fun, and a bit hidden feature, of the file players is that you can enter a fractional beat duration for the loops! So you could set up several players with the same loop, one set to 4 beats, another on 4.25, etc. Or even 4.01 and have it slowly drift out of sync for those minimalism time phase effects :)

    Maybe a good interim solution would be to use something similar that is present in Sector?(ie. auto-slice the loop to say, 1/64th notes and trigger the slices?). Don't know how much CPU overhead that would cause though.

    But I do like the idea of it behaving like a 'tape-recorder', no need to figure out how many cents or semitones to loop needs to be transposed with in order to match the tempo :)

  • kobamotokobamoto

    but if we have the ability to resample then we could just resample the high quality time stretching and that would take the load off wouldn't it?

    This resonates with me, not as a performer, but because I think we sometimes concentrate on the wrong things when we can see our music in too much details rather than using our ears.

    That's great as far as I'm concerned, I can time-stretch in other apps but I don't have any apps that actually do it the analog way, so this could be quite useful.

  • kobamotokobamoto

    better to have it than to not, let the angels sort out the artifacts.

    Same here! I will be pushing iSpark, Launchpad and iMS-20 (sequenced via ModStep) through it to start with, and maybe even Tonestack (assuming there are enough resources on my ipad mini2 and I grow a second pair of hands to play the guitar while operating the other 3) :)

    Absolutely ! Music is an audible art form not a visual one, so the final test should be the hearing not the seeing. The seeing can help get to the end result but should not dictate it.

    I find that when I am using controllers and performing I get far more fluid results than if I am laying out a track visually in a DAW

    Amount of hands is always a problem. Reminds me I need to start looking a pedal controllers :)

    I've got the Blueboard which works OK with Tonestack + Expression for volume and wah control. Although there is a definite lack of feedback from the buttons and you cant see the lights on them when your foot is over it.

    So let me get this straight... it has a built in audio player?
    So I can add 3 channels that play some loops? and then add another AU channel and jam along and record the output to AudioShare inbox?

    Wow!

    Exactly! 3, or 50 if your device could handle it :)
    And you can record a mix with some effects added, as well as the dry signal of your jam channel, simultaneously as separate files. Or any other thinkable configuration.

    This is the ineffable part that got my attention. It's the intangibles that makes me/helps me produce things sometimes in Beathawk which are more performance than perfection.

  • CarnbotCarnbot

    I've been using MTS as a live Audious mixer and very good for this role it is too, ability to add AUs and a small footprint make it very useful. But it doesn't (currently) have midi control of the mixer and the UI isn't suitable for live performance use.

    AUM I'm sure will fill a much needed workflow gap for me :)
