Ended up going for both Egoist and GR. Egoist is fun and glad I bought it. I had most of it figured out after the first 15mins with it, but that might be because I already own Turnado, Wow, Effectrix, and Unique... so I'm already pretty familiar with how Sugarbyte's interface language works.
Groove Rider has been more of a challenge. It's pretty quirky, but it's finally opening up for me thanks to a few other users who've cleared up some interface details that were tripping me up. I'm about 70% there with that one too, and I don't regret buying either at this point.
The gift cards I got weren't for iTunes. I thought the only available holiday "deal" on iTunes cards was the $100 for $85. I refuse to buy these when they aren't on sale, and I didn't want to drop another $85 on iTunes credit at the moment. However, I found that PayPal is still doing 10% off of $25/$50/$100... so I grabbed a $50 for $45 to ease my decision making a bit. lol
Looks like the 10% discount via PayPal is still going on for those interested... at least here in the U.S.

Seems like 76 could be an excellent candidate for your first AUv3 offering?
This fixes the sound problems, which I believe are down to the modern H.265 (a.k.a. HEVC) encoding. I use Splice to convert. Someone told me another trick, which is to play your video and make a screen recording of that. The recording-of-a-recording has normal sound
Oh, so that DOES work. I figured it would but hadn't tried it yet. Ran into issues with the new screen recording format when I was beta testing the node-based fx app Bricolage a few months ago. It didn't like the new format much at all.
And, I remember a video editing app called Splice from about 5 or 6 years ago that I really liked. At the time I think it was only for iPhone and was very well designed for the smaller screen. It stopped working after awhile so I deleted it. I bet GoPro bought them and rereleased. They bought another video editing app that was cool too, then made it free as well. Going to grab Splice again and see if it's basically the same app. It was very good for quicky stuff on the iPhone. thx
Yes you are right, I knew it wasn't great but I didn't expect it to be quite that bad. I went back and edited the audio track, it should be a bit more balanced now:
In the future I'll make sure to record my voice on a separate track using my external mic
I bought it from my phone, you have to go through a few steps to download and install it and can do it anytime.
Anyway, as I mentioned before, get a Computer music magazine subscription through the newsstand and vacuum pro is free this month. I think the first month of the magazine subscription is free too, and there's tons of other useful plugins with it.
I did buy hybrid as well, for $1 it would have to be absolutely awful to not be worth it (and is not all at all, seems quite good).

Just picked up Deregulator and it hardly works. There's another thread around here about there being bugs in his stuff:
https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/23605/buggy-sale#latest
That being said, I LOVE Self-a-Fuzz and hope it isn't broken as well. It's worth the full price and definitely worth $1.
Just a heads up the dev for self-a-fuzz may stop supporting his current apps due to a bug which is hard for him to fix
So… old apps maybe just become real abandonware. I’m crossing fingers for libPd to become usable again and apps are still sounds great on devices with 44100Hz sample-rate.
From the dev:
Hello, friends!
Quick news - all my apps now is priced about $1.
Why?
All of them are now have libPd specific bug with 48000Hz sample-rate. Now I’m waiting for maintainer’s fixes - I’m not smart enough to fix it by myself, usually my body-hairs are starts to waving around when I try to understand fixing c++ library.
Well, now I’m learning new technologies and hope to make available AudioUnits soon and there is heavy chances I just make something different and release new apps with new abilities
Looks like all the DDMF apps are on sale for $4.99 each instead of $8.99. They’re all AUv3, universal, and ported from desktop.

I literally just got the reverb yesterday before it went on sale because none of the DDMF apps have ever been on sale before!
WOW! Finally. First time these gems ever going on sale, afaik. Will grab the bunch.
Anyone have experience with any DDMF apps that they feel is good or great?
I use IIeq pro on my laptop and it is great. I think I'm going to get the limiter in this sale.
Just got audio import for launchpad. Works awesome creating and importing blocs wave projects into launchpad.
Glad I purchased.
Will try importing my own loops at some point.
I have them all. They’re all pretty top notch in my book. The 6144 EQ is absolutely incredible for enhancements. I used to use the reverb on everything, but found I only liked it with a shorter tail. No Limits is in my master chain at all times. DirectionalEQ is also amazing for enhancements, but I use it sparingly since I’m never sure what it would sound like in mono. I’m sure there’s a way to test it, just haven’t done it yet.
Thank you sooooo much was about to pull the trigger on the EQ when I read this. Wow so glad I waited, thanks!
Can’t decide Compressor? If I already got the Limiter. Doesn’t compressor squash the sound?
I think many of us (self) are confused about the real end difference between a limiter and a compressor.
You could do that without the audio import IAP. I bought that a couple of days ago as well though, as it allows you to import audio into new (non-Blocs) projects as well.
Limiter = peak flattener to avoid distorsion ( which in digital domain is weird in opposition to analog valve or tape hardware)
Compression = Dynamic processing of signal to compensate dynamics (sics) which include in certain adjustments limiter. Also parallel (sidechain) compression and subtle compressiom (reinforcement) for acoustic and vocal takes.
In the real world a limiter is what you put in a disco to avoid go over certain dbs outside and usually smash the signal due the usual behaviour of increase the input signal (borrowing any difference between frequency signal/eq) and giving as a result the usual “wall of noise” (or ball of bass and crispytodeath highs)
Compressor well used usually becomes transparent more than significative. It’s used to correct little mistakes in recording or create subtle nuances in certain ranges to get some wider stereo image (most noticed in combination to eq and even more with sidechain).
Makes sense?
Is Ravenscroft 275 going to have a sale soon, that would be nice
Best explanation so far Captain. Thank you. I have added your fine note to my ever-expanding 'Fool's Book'
So how is the DDMF reverb? Thats the only DDMF iOS app I don't have because I already have Eco2, Zero Reverb and AudioReverb ( by Virsyn ) as far as reverbs go. I imagine it sounds good, but I can't imagine that I need another reverb.
Any chance of publication?
It is a Word doc of copied bits of wisdom/tips for a whole slew of things. More revealing of my own areas of app-specific ignorance (many), but it has grown sufficiently that I AM thinking of amending my will and having it bound in velvet and left for perusal at the entrance of the Song of the Month Club when I pop my clogs etc.
