    Quick one, V likely me missing something - iSpark into AUM seems to kick Link out and replace it with the inter app audio transport. Do I need to load this in via audiobus instead? Fugue machine doesn't have the same problem.

    App looks really great but I'm confused about the destinations and why the various IAA audio apps don't appear there? So for example, you can't mix a bunch of VIs and send them to Loopy without getting AB involved?

    That's right, IAA does not have "output apps" in that sense. This is a good example of how AUM is great to combine with Audiobus!

    Thanks, still trying to wrap my head around this. The destination is called "IAA / Audiobus Output" so are there some IAA apps that can use this output destination directly or does it really mean Audiobus only? I'm just wondering if apps could be updated to take advantage of this output in AUM directly or if they will always need Audiobus.

    Ok I think I get it now, when I opened Cubasis IAA then the AUM IAA ports showed up. So the real issue with this config is that Loopy doesn't have IAA. I really hope Loopy Masterpiece has IAA... and is still coming at some point.

    Musicstreamer doesn't appear to be AB or IAA so it seems unlikely

    Is that so AUM doesn't step on Audiobus' toes? Have to admit I was thinking of replacing Audiobus with AUM just to eliminate the need for mimix to send a click track on track 3 of my interface but it seems like a no go idea. I'll check how mimix compares to mimix ram wise.

    AUM is just what I needed!
    So far now issues but darn, I had to get all the Blamsoft AUs too and also by 'accident' got myself a new toy to play with (Electribe 2, no, not the sampler version as it's easy enough to swap the firmware on the regular one when needed).

    Wow. Cool workflow. So I can record a performance on a node as a loop and then load it as a File Player node.

    That's right. But in the first version, it will stop recording immediately when you tap the REC button, so the loop will not be perfectly trimmed unless you have very good timing :) I'll add quantized REC-stop in a future update, so that you can sample beat perfect loops on the fly (as in SECTOR) without having to trim them in AudioShare first.

    GREAT NEWS!!!!

    AUM is great but if you are a Loopy user, AUM doesn't make things any more elegant. We need to lobby Michael to add IAA support in Loopy but seeing as he has a vested interest in AB, I think we probably won't see it until Materpiece arrives or if at all.

    Probably been asked already but a great time saving option (as well as quantised ending of recordings for the loop player, which I know is planned) would be perhaps a long press on a channel record button brings up a menu then you can select a free channel, or next free channel which the recording is then cued up as a loop on that channel when done.

    Perhaps you intend to keep the loop player simple but I also could see the potential for this being more advanced since it's has an advantage attached to Audioshare. it could (perhaps as an IAP) become a mid controlled multiple clip launcher (per channel) that would be great too.

    One thing that I have been thinking about is this: FilePlayer could have an option to auto-load the last recording of any channel. So you could have one channel playing a loop, and whatever you record on another channel is automatically loaded in the loop player.

    Sure! Any typical DAW app like Auria, Cubasis, MTS, etc. can load those AUM ports as sound sources.

    Hmm... I'm not having any trouble with Loopy. The workflow is for Loopy to be running your "dry" tracks in Audiobus, and then send them thru AUM for effects and effect groups. I admittedly have not tried other scenarios, but this scenario is frikin' brilliant.

    And Loopy HD does have IAA support. Each loop can be a separate instrument source in IAA.

    ... I must not be understanding what everyone's trying to do that isn't working.

    The developer of iSpark (Tempo Rubato) decided that if a user loads the app in an IAA host, he probably wants it to sync directly to the host instead of Link. Since AUM also syncs to Link, it shouldn't matter. Just start/stop in AUM and iSpark will follow, and it will line up with Link if enabled in AUM.

  • yowzayowza

    I think everyone wants to be able to record from AUM into Loopy, that is what is not working.

    yes please - that sounds great. Also (I'm waiting until i'm done work to purchase) what about an option to scale constrain the AUM keyboard - even just being able to select a minor or major scale and choose a root would be super swell. Can't wait to get home and try it out!

    Audio file from?

    Is there any way I could send audio from MusicStreamer (the Statospherix app) through AUM as a source?

    I don't have that app so I don't know really. If it supports Audiobus, IAA or is an AudioUnit extension then yes.

    Exactly

    ...and without the need for Audiobus. Not because I personally don't like Audiobus (I love it) but it currently doesn't support multiple outs to hardware and I just can't wait anymore!!! :)

    It's not about toes. It's the fact that IAA does not have any concept of output apps, it only has sound sources (generators and instruments), effects, and hosts.

    When you connect a source app into Loopy through Audiobus, it's in fact Loopy that hosts the source app via Inter-App Audio under the hood.

    Brilliant ! This and quantize stop recording would make a killer live setup !

    By the way the filters sounds awesome, I'm having so much fun that I forgot to turn record on

    I guess you could hook up AUM into Loopy through Audiobus, and at the same time Loopy into AUM for fx processing and distribution to multiple hardware outs?

    I did a similar request (scale quantize) and it's not in the to do list, maybe it will be reconsidered, BUT in the meantime thumbjam has the AUM transport bar and makes a great midi controller for your live sessions ;)

    If that is the case, then I wish Loopy's IAA host parameters were exposed like in other apps instead of hidden. I think the plan for some of us was to lighten the app load and eliminate AB for some routings to reduce latency and/or keep things minimalistic. Right now I have AB open just for a single stream of AUM to Loopy in an output slot of AUM. If I could access loopy directly in the AUM output slot, I wouldn't need AB at all for this particular routing.

    Thanks, I will give it a go. It is mostly about the most efficient way to use CPU/RAM resources but also the simplicity of the set up.

    Do you know why AUM can't see AKAI EIE as individual inputs (like in Audiobus) but as stereo pairs?

    I think I answered this in the other thread? AUM has only stereo channels, but you can use the Stereo To Mono "effect" node to pick only left or right, or a blend between both. It's very lightweight and won't even show a difference on the CPU meter :)

    Yes you did. I bet you wish there was one thread only. Then again with all the traffic on this forum it can't be a bad thing either. You're doing a good job at keeping up with it. Cheers.
