yes, drums are in drums, the other two instruments are where the smart instruments are
Thanks. Glad it wasn't really obvious
The new drum kit is nice...really like the gonggggggg! The stringed instruments sound good too. I just happened to tap the advanced tab looking for a midi setting and I saw the Chinese Instruments switch...quite a nice surprise.
Those are fun!! Running both Chinese smart instruments through the amps creates some interesting tones. Thanks for posting how to unlock, I guess Apple was playing with us on that one.
Quick silly groove I made using both instruments through the amps, drum kit is in there too :
@mrufino1 sounds good, thx for sharing.
Does anybody use GarageBand instruments in an AB chain? It never occurred to me, largely because I have assumed a kind of disdain for the app. When it came out I assumed it was a toy and wouldn't do as a real DAW. But there seems to have been a lot of movement in it. Can you record midi with IAAs? If nothing else, I bet it'll be rock solid. It does have a somewhat hand-holdy UI, but after a night of Modstep runes, might be a decent palate cleanser?
^Always such an exciting idea... Till we remember that Apple doesn't allow it. They seem to have restricted GB so it does not send audio out to IAA or AB. Only for receiving audio, for example you can put it in Audiobus output slot only.
And GB has some beautiful expressive instruments. If you really want to use them you have to record inside GB then "export song" for each track soloed.
Just got done exporting samples out of GB. Such a shame it has to be so hard...
it's better than that mixvibes app no?
@lukesleepwalker Right? And not that it is so hard... just that Audiobus could make it so easy.
Right, better said.
I think it is. It'd be soooo easy for Apple to play nice in the ecosystem and turn GB into a hub. But alas, it sits in its lonely walled garden on my device. So be it.
I'm with @Fruitbat1919 on this one. Been deleted and reinstalled several times.
It was my first iOS app, and what drove me to even buy an iPad (iPad 2) in the first place. It was a great introduction to iOS music, but since the advent of Audiobus, and the solid Cubasis and Auria Pro DAW's, I just don't use it anymore. My kids tend to fiddle about with it at times. Might give it yet another chance.
I like some of the instruments, but it's a large chunk of memory for something I hardly ever use. It's on again
One thing that would make it stick is if they bundled a version of Alchemy with it. For that I would delete many other apps!
I did forget about that. (Although surely some genius here can figure out a way to force GB through Fugue Machine or something to get it into Modstep!)
It seems like a poor decision on Apple's part to stay in its little gated community. And yet...Apple takes a cut of every app we must buy because Garageband is walled off, so....
This new Pipa virtual instrument is absolutely wonderful! I'm delighted. The Erhu is almost as good.
Very expressive new choices.....interesting the update came straight up for my Air, but hasn't appeared for Big Boy. Hmmm...
It also was the app that got me into iOS. I absolutely love it as a songwriting tool.
After several attempts at downloading the update (and stopping it because the blue circle never cleared) I come back to (what I thought was) still the old version, open it & there's the update welcoming me! No problem - as I wanted the update - but at least a couple of times (during my several attempts to get the update) I had been working with the old version. Scratching my head about what makes what do what when with these things...
is it really?..... remix live is pretty freakin good and it's stable as hell, I tried to make it break but couldn't... the only thing is that the sample import options very much need to be updated, and they need allot more better fx but outside of that moving around that app is a breeze..... please elaborate on exactly what is better cause I'm super interested and don't know anything about garage bands looper, what makes it better?
It took over 4 hours for the update to download an install over my supposedly 150 Mbit broadband! Nearly drained my battery in the process but it finally finished. Found the Chinese drums but not the smart instruments so far!
Edit: OK found the Chinese instruments as well now! Loving the Erhu in particular.
Maybe I'll check out the new instruments. However, I have Oriental Strings, WorldScales, and iGuzheng, so I'm not sure if the new GB instruments are worth the space, especially since those other three apps work in AB/IAA.
Worth a look/listen. They are on-the-money lush....
the Chinese instruments are quite excellent
You got a big boy, eh. Color me jelly.
I'm guessing the new apps were actually heavily promoted in the Chinese App Store (and/or perhaps all Asian App Stores). Can anyone confirm?
The wife got it as a surprise. And it was. And it is; the size (for me anyway) disappeared in about 24 hours. Has made the Air feel small, but somehow has just replaced it as the 'standard size'. Odd, you could say almost disappointing, BUT -of course- a number of apps feel totally different, even if not optimized for the thing they're still BIGGER and, as already muttered about, there's a bunch of apps that feel like they're back in play now and then a bunch more that I can simply play far better/easier/more adroitly. And yeah, I'm watching movies on it and yeah the whole graphics side is a big step up, but I can justify it just for the extra power for music. No buggering about. Hell, I can justify it for fun with the Model 15 and FINALLY being able to get into the Fab Filters. Actually, now I think about it, they should have just called it the Sugar Bytes Pro and been done with it....
That's the review I've been looking for. Oh, where the world might be today if all of us could speak our native tongue so well.
I can't find the "spanner" menu
