Hello, after experimenting with trying to use AuriaLink and at the same time using MMC/MTC, I'd like to submit some feedback/comments. What is the correct/best method to do this by?
Thanks for creating an amazing piece of software by the way!
The best way to do that is through our own forum:

Thanks, I registered earlier today. I'll post about it after my account is authenticated by a moderator.
To the folks on the fence: won't you give it a go, now that it's on sale?
Little bit of a thread hijack, but I've found that I can get "good enough" results along this line with Final Touch. I share your thinking that if I ever get something I feel is worthy of serious publishing, I would get someone who knows what they're doing to master it, I'm surprised at how close I can get (to my ears) though. That is no reflection on the value of the Auria Pro IAPs, but more a reflection of the what the current level of my skills warrant.
Nah... I'll wait for Cubasis 2.0
I would get ruined since I by default usually get all IAPs too.
I mean for the love of someone there's not even a global onscreen keyboard.
And the microscopic buttons and stuff would drive me insane and not being able to view the mixer and tracks at the same time, bleah....
And no AU-X support is a 'no go' for the way I roll...
To each their own. But I sympathize, @Samu: I ended up spending more than $200, buying every plug-in I needed - problem is, I realized I needed all, can you believe it?
Yepp, I can, and if I had a 12,9" iPad Pro I would seriously consider it too!(My Eyes are not 'perfect' anymore).
We'll have to wait and see if the 12,9" iPad Pro gets an update on Wednesday...
I think one 'cool' thing Rim could do is to 'AU-X Package' all the Auria Plug-Ins making then useable in other apps too. This would also give further motivation to get Auria Pro as it could be used as a 'Plug-In Container'.
P.S.: But I do think everyone should buy the Auria AND plug-ins, and do it when it's financially possible: as soon as the iPad becomes powerful enough - it's almost there - and AUxs become ubiquitous - not quite there, but I have no doubts it will happen - the big boys will enter the market, and don't expect the generous pricing both PSP and FF are offering inside Auria. Just a thought.
Dimitri,
It's pretty apparent that you think that Auria Pro is the best thing since sliced bread, but I rather tire of such one- sided thinking, I'm afraid. There's no must to any app. For sure it'll be super improved in the future, but (probably) everything else will be too.
P.P.S.: talking about generous pricing, there is one plug-in I didn't have yet: Drumagog! But I have been watching some videos about it, and find it very cool and hgh-end. Problem is, I'm in love with it for its ability to track and replace hats and cymbals, but the plug-in description in Auria only mentions kicks, snares etc. If I buy it, wil it come with the treble instruments, @WaveMachineLabs?
The best thing since sliced bread - and perhaps over it - is pizza ai quattro formaggi.
But you're right, it should be a "should" instead of "must". Thanks, and edited!
Even the price is attractive but with my skills probably my music would not Become any better and I eould soend a hell of time to learn it. I believe for now I will keep working with Cubasis woth the dream they will include some BUS mixing...

Final Touch is excellent. Getting a LOT of use from it.
Agree, It's on sale too (at least last time i checked like a few hours ago).

Here's another thought. So many of us into IOS music making are attracted to it because the apps are financially accessible. For me, and I'd bet a lot of others, if the 'big boys' arrived here and tried to sell me something at ten times the kind of prices I'm used to, it wouldn't matter how great it was, I'm not going to buy. It's the very high cost that disenfranchised me from much of the desktop world.
It's not always about money, it's about what the need is too.
I mean Korg Gadget with IAPs and the other 'Gadgets' fully loaded (iM1 & Module) is quite an investment by 'iOS Standards' but well worth it if you ask me as a 'hobbyist'.
For those who 'need' all the features Auria Pro provides the prices can probably be justified especially if there is a paying customer at the other end.
All in all we all have the right to choose the tools we wan't to use.
What is 'heaven' for one person can be 'hell' for another and vice versa...
Interesting!
I must admit that I'm tending to agree. Cubasis certainly works better for me right now. Really looking forward to 2.0. Perhaps this is because my requirements aren't as sophisticated as those Auria can provide.
On the other hand, I'm finding that the flaws you mention are already bugging me. So, for the time being, AP is very much a gamble, on what I might want to do as I learn more, and on AP getting AU, an onscreen keyboard, an alternate view mode, plus a few things I haven't even come across yet.
It's a no-brainier to acknowledge the app's quality and longer term potential. But AP currently lacks what Cubasis has, and those are features I use.
Yeah, and for anyone wondering, I'd add that FT comes with a bunch of useful presets, and is a breeze to experiment with. There is no track that I've used it on that hasn't come out the other end sounding much improved.
Final Touch is wonderful if you can't afford ProL+ProQ. Way better than LANDR, for instance.
About Drumagog, has anyone buy it? Does it come with the treble instruments as well, or just ics, snares and toms?
Exactly!
Just caught on to a feature of AP which may be of great use to me in times ahead; the ability to use Logic Pro X samples.... that is assuming I can work out how to export then import them.
Not only this, but also hi-end paid EXS sample libraries such as the Fazzioli Grand Piano from imperfect samples, or Analogue Drums's Big Mono Drums.
To export a library from EXS24 in LPX, you open the EXS24 GUI and choose Edit/Instrument/Export Sampler Instrument and Sample Files
It comes with some cymbals, and if you email WaveMachineLabs they will send you some additional ones as well as extra snares and kicks etc... Plus you can also buy additional packs from Drumagog.com, all the desktop packs should be compatible with Auria.
I'm not sure why DAW'S ignite so much disagreement, the only reason you should care what other tools someone uses is if you're collaborating. If you don't need or want auria, it doesn't make you a lesser musician. I see people saying they don't have the skill to use it though, is really a pretty simple program. It's knowing what to do with it (the actual mixing itself) that's the lifelong pursuit, no matter what tools you use!
With that being said, you can do serious mixes in auria, and other apps probably are not the ones you'd reach for to import tracks to mix, but for creation there's lots of options and whatever floats your boat is good. I love auria for mixing, but not so much for creation. However, I did record a gig with it on July 4th from the sound company 's behringer x32, and it is definitely the only app doing that! But, for writing, I love garageband the most and use it a ton. If I want to mix it being what garageband can do then I'll export the tracks, but I use it mostly for writing so the mixes I get with GB are fine to make the point that needs to be made.
Here's a video and a mix from that gig if you are interested
When the Soundman saw auria he bought it on his iPad pro immediately, and with the powered cck that he had it can record entire gigs with ease.
OK, enough of of me. If you need auria, it's on sale. If you don't need it, then it won't make your music better. The plugins, both the ones that come with it and the extra, are great, but knowing how to use them is important. You can most definitely do a great mix on there without any IAPs.

Thanking you.
Yes, I understood that before buying. My thinking is that we're all changing and learning and developing all the time. At the full price, I'd be unlikely to take a punt on AP at this time, 'cause I don't need it. But, at the sale price, it's a gamble and investment for me that just might pay off.
"For those who 'need' all the features Auria Pro provides the prices can probably be justified especially if there is a paying customer at the other end."
If you need the features AP provides, how could the price not be justified? What makes a price justifiable?
On another topic: Every purchase is a gamble if you're expecting an app to do something it can't. I just bought Cubasis for the same $25. The MIDI and audio editing are not up to modern DAW standards. The mixer is rudimentary. There's limited quantization for MIDI and none for audio. You can't save FX presets or copy them. There's no tempo or time sig track, which to any composer not stuck to very basic dance music is inadequate...
I'm not pointing this out to knock Cubasis, but to be fair to Auria Pro. I know what I got with Cubasis, and even if 2.0 never comes out, or the app never gets another update, I'm happy with my purchase. Steinberg offers a nice mobile music production studio for the money---like Korg Gadget is a good buy despite not having many features that would make it a DAW.
So if we don't get AU-X or whatever it is that makes one's music life complete, that's too bad. Nobody bought an app with AU-X. WaveMachineLabs doesn't owe it to anyone.
