I never realized that (obvious) line of connection, (because I’m a moron) and now that I’ve tried it, that’ll work fine I guess. Thanks!
The nice side benefit is you can readily change FX order so you capture the audio anywhere in the signal chain you like. If you want to “freeze” some FX, but leave others so that you can adjust them later, you can easily.
Thanks Wim, appreciate your help. Unfortunately when I try to do this (in AUM) nothing’s recorded into MTR. The track’s armed (you can’t use MTR’s transport/record controls in Remote mode), and even though it’s recording the output in AUM, nothing’s happening in MTR.
Tried using loop, punch in/out etc., Host Sync is off, nothing being recorded.
I’m on my third song in MTR, so it’s going to get constant use from me, but it does have some really annoying quirks. Aside from this quite often audio clips will be muted (winding back and they play again), and it’s frozen up on me a few times after using Undo.
Ugh. So close!
Hello everybody 😊
Here is my live stream for Multi-Track from last night.
This cover all of the basics in AUM
It would great app if AU instances could somehow be connected and act as one app.
Meaning opening one of the multiple instances would show the tracks of the others
@thesoundtestroom That was a super useful video Doug.. I think anyone having issues should check it out because you covered most situations as far as recording/playback in sync and looping.. I still haven't picked it up yet, but your video gave me confidence in using it when I do.. Thank you for posting it.
@royor Thank you 😊 In tonight’s Live Stream at 8.00 pm UK Time, I’m showing various uses of Multi-Track in NanoStudio 2

Would it be possible to change the light blue Color of the knobs ? Hard to see the different!
Hey, sorry for not reading all 11 pages but I was wondering if this app can handle the following workflow.
Opening and sliding in the files app and dragging/dropping samples/loops into its timeline!?
I was thinking about any DAW something that can handle this atm. Would be really great for me and my workflow. Thanks friends!
Yeah. You CAN do that.
Thanks sir. This is right now the only time line arrangement option with that feature right?
Not sure if it is the only, but only one I am aware of.
It is great, though!
😁
I'm pretty sure MultiTrack DAW and Garageband also allow this with slideover mode.
Thanks for the headsup! I will try. Don’t have MTD though
But 4pockets could be a missing link in my workflow then
Auria Pro does this as well.
Still occasionally driving me up the wall.
Finally got the hang of the clip handles - I’ve found dragging your finger slightly downwards helps.
Annoyances - automatically set to record in mono, so keep forgetting to enable the Stereo button, clips still sometimes not playing, or continuing to play after being moved, and today a couple of clips I’d recorded disappeared after saving the song. Froze up a few times too.
BUT. I love it. I haven’t touched Live on the desktop since I bought this, and on about my fifth song with it. I’m also revisiting apps I haven’t used for ages, so really giving good value for money all round.
I opened Multitrack DAW last night to record a few things, but then decided to use this instead. In some ways I find it MUCH easier, and it's an AU, so everything can be inside AUM. Plus after reading quite a few posts, it looks like even using Audiobus in the mix, the transport for Multitrack DAW doesn't trigger AUM or Audiobus, and vice-versa. I also didn't find things like "Normalize" in Multitrack DAW, which is very easy to use in this app.
After some looking, I haven't found a good AU option for recording MIDI in AUM. Yes, there are the ones usually mentioned, but their interfaces are pretty clumsy. Just a basic AU MIDI recorder with an editable piano roll, even if you had to use a separate instance for every source. That would make my workflow MUCH easier I think. Not that I have anything against Xequence, I love it. But for quick and dirty, an easy MIDI recorder would be great.
@motmeister In fear of redundancy, are you not happy with Atom/ have not tried it?
Yes, I go back to it time and again, because it’s all there is… I have participated in other discussions about it, and the biggest was the inability to independently arm it for start/stop. You can send it a CC and make it stop, but you can’t make it start again. Veek responded to my email about it and said he was surprised start/stop worked at all, because he hadn’t implemented that.
Don’t get me wrong, I find it useful, but for my purposes it doesn’t meet the criteria in my original post. When I’m trying to set up a midi loop so I can get a synth to make noises “hands-free”, it’s my goto. When I’m trying to really record midi, I wire up Xequence. That second purpose is what I’d like to see in an AU MIDI recorder that works inside of AUM.
As a MIDI recorder, Photon is quite good. No piano roll or state saving. But it records multiple channels and can export midi files.
Ok, I went back to give Photon another try. It’s better than I remember it. Thanks, everyone, for your comments.
As per Photon Settings: Where is the optimal location for storing recorded midi? In AudioShare, iCloud or On My iPad?
It’s really simple, even though the process is initially confusing. All I do is I have a, day, for bar loop, is press record and record it in MTR for just over four bars, then> @_mwallace said:
These bundles should really be made at the time of release. For this and a few other things I’ve spent the full amount on apps first, even though I could have got them a lot cheaper if I’d waited. Not the dev’s fault, I expect, but something to do with Apple.
The multitrack is handy for apps like Casio CZ that are not auv3...same time, Aum can record a file and play it synced later on.
What is the advantage of the multitrack?
I know the sample you record with the Aum...cannot be trimmed ( start point, end point)
I takes less resources to run the Multitrack inside one channel and set one bus out, than running several file players inside Aum?
MultiTrack you can arrange things along a timeline so that different recorded bits can come in at different times and run for differing lengths of time. It also does audio stretching to adapt clips to different tempos without changing pitch. It is also more streamlined than the process in AUM of recording, creating a new file player channel, loading the file, setting the parameters, disabling the old channel...
If you're only looping audio clips then the AUM file player is fine. MultiTrack just extends what you can do.
Sure it can, if you have Audioshare.
There's probably little to no difference in resource usage.
Thank Wim! Would you call Multitrack an "utility" type of app, more than let's say creation/production?
No, I wouldn't say that. It's very much a creation/production app to me. It's like a mini audio-only DAW that you can load into other hosts that have little or no audio track handling.
@Sergiu I find it great when my overhead in AUM using synth etc and associated midi routings gets too much. Just record to multitrack and remove a synth or two.
Also, there have been many projects that are more live jams that just need a hit, or sparkle, or little not oft repeating bit. In these cases I just don’t want to record every track and have the hassle of importing all the sound files into Cubasis only to add that little bit.
Multitrack isn’t going to be for finished super polished tracks, but it’s great for song making and quickly trying out ideas, especially if you heavily use AUM or nanostudio
Thanks guys
