Still a long way to go...

Usually i stay in 1-2 apps (Gadget,Auria) to keep potential problems as minimal as possible (although it means i usually don't use 90% of my apps) but tonight i tried to be ballsy and fired up Cubasis,plugged in my (Duo Capture EX) Interface,Spark Controller and BassStation 2 and made a tune with iSpark,iProphet and Navichord.ALL AT ONCE.Can you believe that?

Well,at least i tried.iSpark often loved to turn on something that sounded like a bit/sample rate reducer.Great vintage effect.But i didn't asked for this so he was the first one who left the field.

iProphet...ah well.Good thing is: it's more reliable then i thought.Bad thing is:it's not enough.Try harder.
Sometimes the sound just disappeared or he wanted to show his low hanging fruits (the well known hanging basstones).

Then Navichord...worked fine but the audio signal was always the fastest one who disappeared.for what do i need it's own sounds you say?It's still the fastest way to get an impression how certain sounds/chords fit into the song.

Seriously,some of you use a hell lot of apps at once...is this some kind of masochistic preference? :wink:

I'm done for tonight...

  • Sounds like my typical experience when I venture out beyond the few apps I know to work happily together. Sometimes, awesome happens out there in the app wilds. More often than not, it's pretty much as you describe. HULK SMASH. Most musical for me is sticking with my basic set or using one or two apps at once max. I don't think it's ram/processor as much as it's limiting the variables that might wreck the house of cards (very much including flat out user error/incompetence with under-used apps in those variables!).

  • I have a feeling iSpark is not playing very nice with some of the other apps. I've been having problems with various combinations trying to have a link session going on and it often improved when removing iSpark.

  • Yep iOS music making with many apps, goes from the interesting to the nausea inducing :p

    The question is to use apps that work together. Create a workflow and stick with it. If it proves to be masochistic just find the offending app and replace it with what works. The multiapp set up I'm currently using has been evolving for the last 2 years but fortunately has remained unchanged for the last 2 months so there is hope, I guess.

    I run a lot of apps at once via aum and various apps will quit or stop playing . Ispark is problematic , elastic drums mostly unusable ( just seems to pack up after a minute or so ) , Cyclop freezes , and last night I had problems loading egoist ( threw up ' unknown error ' ) message.

    Overall though most work - reliable ones such as isem and thor and patterning is solid

  • I have no problem with iSpark in AUM. it even responds to IAA transport controls. MIDIsteps works well controlling my synths. Some synth arps are not always reliable when linked. I'm waiting for the Modstep update to integrate it with AUM.

    same here, my setup changed only slightly through the last two years, and for quite some time now, all seems to be stable. knockknock

    I've found that simpler=better on ios. Computer DAWs allow for much complexity. Having many devices and connections between them is very straightforward inside a DAW, the only constraints being CPU and disk space. On ios, not so much.

    Words to live by (or at least attempt to practice)...

  • So what are your "working" setups give me some ideas :)

    you are right of course but I wanted to try something"new",so many nice toys out there ;)
    The ispark Cubasis thing was most annoying but i'll send Rolf another mail,i'm sure he'll look into it (well,but that also means i need to reproduce the issue.Not in the mood for it right now).

    Next bigger session i'll create a link session in AUM and see how that goes.
