MultiTrack DAW - thoughts

Just wondering if I have not looked at it enough / am not really getting what it excels at, but I am finding it to be rather limiting. i would be interested to hear other peoples thoughts, who currently use it / have experience with it.

  • Straightforward audio only daw. I find the workflow of trimming audio and moving it around on the timeline pretty convenient. Works well with AUM. Getting audio in and out of the app is straightforward. Has a cool feature where you can port audio over wifi via an exposed IP address.

  • I like it quite a lot. It is a simple way to record very quickly. I love Auria, but it takes me a bit longer to set up a recording in it. With MT-DAW, I am ready within seconds. I like how when you touch a button it is like a little pop up that is large and easy to see and control I wish other apps/developers would take note of this and use it too. Especially Auria.

  • Seems to be one of the less CPU/ram intensive daws. The link is on the way (don't hold your breath) so might be a great companion to Gadget.

  • My go to daw consistently with audiobus.

  • Is it easy to export audio from MTD to AudioShare or somewhere where you can access it with your other apps?

  • If I need something quick and light on resources I would turn to AUM these days, but MT DAW used to fulfil that purpose to me in the past. For anything more involved Auria is always the first choice though.

  • Thanks for the replies. I guess I am finding it limiting as it doesn't zoom vertically, making precise editing tricky and I can't figure out how to hi light single regions and move then around the timeline. This could be to do with the fact that I'm new to it.

    It certainly is uncluttered, in it's layout and speedy to load up.

    Pleased to hear rumours of your recent foreign drowning to be not so...

  • For me it's a small-footprint easy-to-use speedy-as-Gonzalez audio DAW for assembling/mixing completed individual tracks.
    Good for audio jobs not needing built-in instruments.
    Doesn't do as much as bigger DAWs, and that's a big reason why I like it.
    Awesome interface.
    Highly recommend for beginners and pros alike.

    Does that help?

    Normal service will be resumed on Monday.

    There was a lot of water here in France though, so the rumours weren't too far out.

  • Is it easy to export audio (mp3?) out and put it in AudioShare or open it in other programs?

  • @raindro said:

    No MP3 export, but it has a few high quality formats (.wav, .ogg, m4a). And yes, it has an "open in" to AudioShare. I've had it for about 5-6 years and still use it quite a bit. Great app.

  • I didn't see this mentioned yet, but if you are an iPhone only user (like me), it is the best multitrack audio recorder available. :smile: It will soon be getting Ableton link too. :smile:

    Or is it? I can think of another one beginning with B ;)

  • Haha!! @supadom I half expected you to pop in and say that!! :smiley: IMO, right now, BeatMaker 2 is essentially dead and BeatMaker 3 is in vaporware land. I sincerely hope that BeatMaker 3 makes it out, because then I might just revise my statement. :smiley:

    We all see what you're doing there with that reverse jinxing, not fooled for a minute...

    I did not know that! Just tried it out with some others and my experiences back this up, so thank you for opening up this iPhone avenue for me. :)

    I wish iOS audio normalisation/processing wasn't so darned insistent on shoving itself in everywhere. So noisy, ugh. :/

  • Does it help if you load MTD in AudioBus and turn on measurement mode?

    Another great thing is you can easily transfer a project started on one device to another via WiFi.

    I used MTD off and on for years. Always solid, but I was only using it for field recording of ambient stuff I wanted to easily mix together on the iPhone while traveling. Nearly forgot I even had it.

  • On the iPhone AUM works very nicely.

    I love Auria. The in app purchase plugins make it brilliant. I don't really find it takes a bunch of time to get started at all. I'm sure MTD is great, but the software on the iPad is the tiniest of my musical purchases, so might as well get the best, most complete package.

    Bro

    I just bought it.

    I am sorry I never bought this.

    So sorry.

    So simple. So practical. So cheap.

  • I lost so much Time using Modstep, genome configuring midi .With MTD and loopersonic i can produce 3 more Time faster than with all those midi combo.I like midi but in a desktop vst or au way, with iOS i think audio is enough and far simpler.If you hate all that Cc ,routing and these Controllerism's hype ,well MTD (and perhaps loopersonic) are the best for the job.

  • Looking forward(when/if it happens?) to having Link coded into MTD. Also, when the dev releases MTD 2.

  • Well I have persevered with it, but I can't say that it's for me. While it's minimal, I don't find it's interface to be very intuitive and while it does some things well, it doesn't do other things that I would expect a DAW to be able to do - like moving regions around from track to track or around the track itself (anyone know how how to do this ?) or any kind of precise editing etc (no vertical zooming). It was cheap though and it wouldn't be fair to compare it to the likes of Auria or Cubasis.

    Link integration doesn't bother me (currently), more basic DAW functionality would be more welcome. Saying that, I can see it works very well as a recorder, as opposed to something more suited to building up a full track with.

    Thanks for the replies, nonetheless.

  • @Igneous1 - Long press an audio region and choose edit. From there, you can move, trim, or fade the region, although I don't think you can move it across tracks.

    Copy/paste to move across tracks.

    What makes loopersonic the nuts for you?

  • As others have stated you can edit tracks and copy them to other tracks. To zoom you use two fingers with a reverse pinch motion.

  • edited June 2016

    Cheers to those who responded, I have figured out how to move regions around. The horizontal zoom thing Works as I expected, but I can't see any vertical zooming.

    To be painfully honest I've never concluded absolutely anything on mtd. While I've done loads of work on BM2 which is to this day my DAW of choice on the ipad. I haven't used either on iPhone but familiarity would defo sway me towards BM2.

    MTD is cheap and cheerful but also extremely basic which probably is the reason for its light footprint. If it was a desert island kind of situation I'd take BM2 anyday especially as it has that very nice sampler. ;)

    It's also optimised for iPhone 4s (I think) which can't be bad.
