    Gadget and Gadget IAPs, Auria and Fabfilter IAPs, Beatmaker 2, Audioshare & Audiobus.

    Auria, Moog M15, ISem, Crystalline, Audiobus, all the Luis Martinez drum apps, Tonestack, Bandshift.
    Many others, but those are the ones that are currently in heavy rotation, with Syntonic heading in that direction as well.

    Syntorial. Different scale of outlay, but for me worth every penny; I wouldn't have got a fraction of what I have from the other great apps mentioned here without it.

    Wow so much AUM in this thread. I only own AB3. What does AUM bring to the table that isn't in AB3? I assumed they were virtually the same.

    I'm also wondering about this, but it seems like no one wants to spill the beans. I am guessing that nobody wants to sit here and type a novel, but I just want some brief pointers as to why you always seem to include Aum in your setup, because I never use it and cannot figure out what I'm missing.

    AUM is more stable, quicker to get fired up and set up, looks prettier, and, and it seems absurd that AB doesn’t have this by now, but you can rearrange your FX chain order in AUM. That’s just the surface.

    The developer himself and anybody else on here can say or has said that AUM isn’t meant to compete with Audiobus. But IMO, that’s mostly lip service and tact. AUM IS a competitor with Audiobus (personal proof being that I no longer use AB) and it blows it out of the water. AUM is the Golden State Warriors after signing Kevin Durant, and Audiobus is somewhere like the Boston Celtics or Washigton Wizards.

    But for state saving, AB is a plus - esp. for IAA Apps.
    I most of the time combine both.

    AudioDabbler has a nice video on the difference between AUM and AB3. Ya'll should definitely check that out.
    I'd say, back in the age of AB2, AUM would have definitely won regardless of price, but now there are things that AB can do that AUM cannot and things that AUM can do the AB3 cannot. Best case scenario is to have AB3 and AUM work together.

    As for recording, AB needs another app to record into (i.e. AudioShare, Blocks Wave, Cubasis etc). It cannot do that standalone, however, you can record into certain apps (like BlocksWave) in a way that no other, including AUM, can. AUM has built-in recording capabilities. YOU DO NOT NEED AUDIOSHARE TO RECORD INTO AUM. Audioshare offers additional file management that seamlessly works with AUM. AUM also has a very robust MIDI routing management and built-in audio fx modules per channels.

    Honestly, I initially bought AUM (at this time there was only AB2 on the app store), but after AB3 came out, there were just a few things that I needed that the cheaper AB3 offered. I wouldn't necessarily say one is better, but AUM gives you a bit more for that few extra dollars it costs.

    Thank you for the information and valued insight. Looks like I'm gonna be out another $19 imminently.

    Midiflow (essential part of live keys rig) first and foremost
    Then In order...
    Ravenscroft 275
    layr
    Isymphonic
    Galileo
    Neo soul keys studio

    Regretted ones,
    Thor (great sound, but unusable live)
    Korg im1 (initially impressed, but bored with the dated sounds)
    Colussus piano (completely blown away by Ravenscroft 275)
    Magellen (sounds to samey)
    Sunrizer (too unreliable live)

    Afaik there is no DAW on any system that can slave to an external sync - it's a feature ;)

  • anomieholidayanomieholiday

    Audioshare. Twistedwave. Gadget (and every $$$ module, expansion, and such)

    @Zen Eagle - for music theory, there is an app (more like a vaguely interactive e-book) called Hooktheory I that really brought me up to speed on practical music theory quickly.

    yes, BM3 can provide some DAW-like functionality for a beat-maker, but I wouldn't want to edit 30min pieces of multitrack audio on that ;)
    But even Ableton can't be synced externally and that says something, as Ableton's audio engine was designed with varispeed in mind.

    Absolutely the best app for scoring, but Notion has better sound samples (if you need listening to your piece)

    ^ sounds about right. Great info for newbies.

  • telechargetelecharge

    I really can't say I've regretted any purchase. However, I do find it regrettable that neither Apple nor developers have provided any recourse, remediation, or reimbursement for apps I've purchased which have been pulled from the app store. Ones that comes to mind are Alchemy, Diode-108, and Rebirth.

    I presume Apples standard iPad cover won’t do

    As has been mentioned Link is the easiest way to sync Ableton but it can also slave to midi clock from any input

    "If you wish to synchronize Live to an external drum machine, synthesizer, hardware sequencer or another DAW, you will need to enable the Sync switch in the MIDI Input port you've used to connect the external device to."

    yes, I picked the exception (Ableton) as a (wrong) example :blush:
    Logic, Cubase and most other DAWs can't be synced to external midi clock as slave - sorry for sluggish expression - the topic recently appeared in the context of someone wanted his DAW following a live-tapped tempo, looper or similiar.

    Ableton has such a great midi setup page, I just had to chime in! So easy to setup many controllers and customise their behaviour independently. If you have the suite, you can also have many controllers acting in unison using a max for live device from Isotonik.

    Even though they don't sell anything on the App Store, they have done a lot to help out the iOS music ecosystem.
