Yeah you can't go back without risking a crash. After it pastes in, just tap anywhere on the screen outside of that menu and it shouldn't crash.
Nope @TedBPhx I still can't export in wav. Bummer!
AudioShare can convert it back to wav.
I know but by the time I get to this stage the file has already been converted once from a compressed format to wav. I want to keep it in wav from then on or the artifacts will start creeping in, especially when playing granular in Samplr. Some of the files I'm using are taken from a vinyl, digitised and then uploaded to YouTube or internet radio.
At times I feel like an archaeologist
It can do 320k though, so quality should be fine. And then you can convert to wav.
This might be the time to send some feedback to the developer as the Desktop version goes down to .0001
It also has some alternate methods for pitch-shifting & stretching that can be matched to 'sound-type'.
Of these time stretching / pitch shifting apps, which uses the best algorithm? Are the comparable to what you'd get doing the same thing in a desktop daw like Ableton Live? I would love to find one that does small increment smooth stretching.
I'm not sure @gkillmaster but I think it is about time @j_liljedahl has added one to audioshare.
Same here. Ironically, I still sometimes take samples back to Live and then bring then back to the iPad. This is not because there isn't an app that can't do it; I just don't have time to find it and learn it. Round tripping to Live ends up being faster...
Seems like Elastique Pro v3 is the favored one overall. I think its in most of the latest high end DAWs. Have no idea if it can be implemented for apps...
I guess the lesson is to pitch shift in Anytune right after having chopped the loop. That way I can export from there to audioshare for final wav conversion. At times one has to spend money on apps they don't need in order to improve workflow with apps one already has.
Thanks all for the suggestions, they were definitely part of the journey.
A bit late to suggest BM2 , but it does very nice pitch shift and time stretch.
Checked it but it only shifts in semitones
Ok, Beat-Machine with the IAP Time / Pitch could cover you. If you want send me some loops to test the result.
Haha, seems like a mission impossible! Beat machine indeed does the so called 'gentle' pitch shifting but just like audiostretch it adds silence to beginning and the end of the sample. They are all likely using the same algorithm.
It's a pity because I really fancied using Beat Machine since the developer is one of ours but probably not for pitch shifting. Thanks anyway @Korakios
SunVox has a pitch shift module, and it doesn't stretch the audio. Thing is like most other things in SunVox it has it's own unique way of doing things. The tools it gives you in the pitch shift module are a slider that goes from -600 to 600, and I honestly don't know what scale that's on. The module also has a pitch scale slider, which I believe is for adjusting how much of an impact the previously mentioned slider has. Then it also has a feedback slider and a grain size slider, which uh, I can't really speak about.
Any time I've used it I've simply gone by ear.
As for getting audio in and out, when you send audio to SunVox from AudioShare it automatically opens the sample in a sampler module for you. From there you need to add the pitch shift module, attach everything, create a pattern and enter C5 for the sample module, adjust pattern length if needed, adjust pitch, then export to wave, and finally paste wave to pasteboard.
Probably not as hard as it sounds, especially if you're familiar with SunVox.

Auria Pro 2 uses Elastique Pro V3 for its real-time audio warping, for the time stretching and pitch shifting
Also, SunVox can be used as an AudioBus effect. Not used it this way personally, but others on the forum have mentioned doing so.
Good point, and yeah it works like a charm if you want to set it up that way, even through IAA. The modules to use are: Input>Pitch Shifter>Output.
Great suggestion for the existing sunvox users @1P18 thanks.
I'll stick with Anytune, got to preserve my limited brain capacity for existing processing.
I've tried using gadget's Bilbao and all went smooth other than hitting the sample time limit. Great for short samples though.
Does it pitch shift in smaller increments than a semitone? Can't find it in the description
Can it tune in smaller increments than semitone?
