Need some iOS advise
Hi all, this is my first post here. This forum was recommended by a few people on the Macrumors forum as a good place to ask music related iOS app questions.
I own a small production music library, and up until recently I've always used a MacBook for all my needs. My business partner actually handles all the music editing and mastering, and he uses Logic. My responsibilities are more administrative, including the distribution of the music files and metadata. I recently have switched to an iPad Pro with the goal of using iOS exclusively for everything. So far I have found excellent apps for all of my needs except for the following:
When final mastered music files are uploaded to our FTP site by either my business partner or other songwriters, I have to retrieve them from the FTP and check them in several ways to make sure everything is 100% perfect before I upload them again to the FTP (to a different folder) for our distributors.
A typical album is usually 40-60 tracks, so I need to be able to do the following for each of the tracks:
1) download from the FTP
2) check each WAV file to make sure they are all 16-bit and 48kHz.
3) listen to each file to make sure everything sounds good -- being able to see the waveform would be a nice feature for this purpose, especially when listening to broadcast length edits.
4) rename the files
5) upload them back to the FTP to a new folder.
I have found a file manager app called Documents by Readdle which allows me to upload/download from the FTP site. It also allows me to listen to the files and rename them, but does not give any audio information such as the sampling rate or whether it is 16 or 24-bit, and it also doesn't show the waveform.
Any advise as to an app that can either replace Documents by Readdle and cover all of my needs, or at least supplement Documents by Readdle by giving me the features that this app is lacking?
Also, it would be helpful if this app was able to open multiple WAV files at the same time. Often times I'm comparing 4 or 5 versions of the same track, and I like to be able to switch back and forth while listening to see the differences.
Thanks or any help you can provide!

Audioshare is an app you should definitely get, you can connect to documents app from within the documents picker, it has file info and waveform view, rename file etc and good connectivity.
Having said that I think if I was doing this as my main job I would still use a laptop over an ipad as the workflow is much slower overall....
and welcome to the forum
The only 2 I can think of are Files Connect and possibly nPlayer not sure if they cover all the functions you require mind.
My thoughts exactly
This sounds like a job that is infinitely better suited to a laptop/desktop
Thanks for the suggestions. This is not actually a task that is my "main job". This is the sort of thing I probably do once per month when we are getting ready to release an album or two, so if it takes a little bit longer I don't mind. However, I still want to figure out the best and most efficient way to do this. I'll check out Audioshare.
One question: Does Audioshare allow you to open multiple files at the same time, such as opening 5 different versions of the same track to compare them?
Edit: Nevermind my question. I found a good video tutorial on YouTube. It looks like a great app. I can import an entire album there, go through all the tracks, rename them, and then export them.
