    Loopy in input slot shows an info button to select different tracks, but this isn't appearing on Loopy in the output slot. I was really looking forward to assigning different routings to specific Loopy tracks. Why is this functionality not in output too?

    You're the first one asking for it. Interesting suggestion though.

    I am a Audiobus noob. I have used GarageBand for YEARS to record and it works perfect for what I do. Can one of you guys point me to, or send me some samples of what you have done exclusively on an iPad using Audiobus? I would really appreciate it.

    If you don't want to use intricate setups for your audio workflow, like multiple effects apps in a row then by all means, stick to GarageBand. It's an excellent app. Audiobus just offers more flexibility, while still being compatible with GarageBand.

    Hmmm, weird, I thought this was discussed already... This would be the only way to multitrack and isolate instruments when they are being played simultaneously, right? Otherwise everything always gets mashed into a single loop. I'm imagining singing and playing guitar at the same time and then wanting to mute just the guitar or vocals, or jamming with a group of people all playing different instruments in a single iPad. With the state saving, you could have a session template all saved and ready to go for this (once loopy is on on board of course).

  • Yeah, makes a lot of sense. Sorry, we've been discussing so much in the last time that I might simply have forgotten about it.

  • Yeah, I would TOTALLY be on board with the independent output lanes for Loopy idea!

  • Great job! Congratulations to everybody, another new level of awesomeness has been achieved!

    No worries, come to think of it, I think it may have been discussed over at the Loopy forum around the time the "simultaneous recording" option was implemented into Loopy HD.

  • Congratulations again @Sebastian and AudioBus team!
    iOS music wouldn't be a fraction of what it is without AudioBus!

    I had some problems as everyone else, but after the reinstall procedure everything seems fine now and... WOW!!!

  • beautiful! thanks michael & sebastian for such a great job. let's play!!!!

    AMAZING job. I picked up Bass Guitar for the 1st time in my life and am going completely amp-less thanks to these setup options. The ability to live jam and save configurations just made my life 10 times better!

    Can't wait to demo this at Dubspot this weekend during our Production demo! Gotta say I'd love to see multiple outs from Loopy as well. That'd make it my performance tool of choice if implemented.

    I mentioned a few posts up. I thought it would make sense too.

  • @fitz @ringleader I just finally wrapped my mind around your Loopy request.

    Essentially, you want Loopy to be a multi-track live looper? Wow, that would be pretty amazing. I thought I heard that the DAWs that do multi-track recording end up with significant latency, rather than real-time playback. I'll be interested to see where this request goes.

    For now I'm just happy to have independent effects paths for voice and guitar, even if Loopy can't simultaneously record each to a separate loop.

  • Thank you so much, Michael and Sebastian! This really is fabulous and it looks great too ! I sincerely hope it does really well for you. This feels like when I was a kid and I really wanted my favourite bands to get to number one: the work you've done and the possibilities you've opened up for folks like me - and the amount of happiness it's giving us is priceless, priceless, priceless!

  • @Hmtx - Yes! I could have sworn this was the reason why the simultaneous recording feature was implemented into loopy. I can't think of any use for that feature other than this.

    The only thing that could be tricky is record enabling or even just controlling all or several tracks at once. Might need to allow additional bindings to be assigned to the same cc, or I'm sure it could be done via MidiBridge. Something to look forward to maybe in the future though!

    +1 about having multiple independent effects paths though. This was my biggest missed feature since day 1 with Audiobus.

  • One thing stands out to me - multiple synths to one efx chain. It would be nice to have a simple controllable mixer at the join point. Actually nice to have a simple AB mixer anywhere. but as a node in this use case especially.

    This is an extremely good idea. DMIMixer could do something close to this with a couple tweaks (being able to run multiple instances, as well as being ported to the Effects slot in AB).

  • Thanks a lot Audiobus team... This update is wonderful, I can't even think of all the new possbilities your app offers now

    (plus the new interface and icon are really nice looking, I hope other apps will update their 'style' to match what you provide... particularly I would like to see change this ugly 'soundfont pro' icon on my iPad main page lol)

  • The update couldn't have came at a worst time. I am in the middle of buying and selling my house and all my gear is in storage. But it will be awesome when I get to my new house where I will have a proper music space.

    I love the fact that my akai eie can have all 4 inputs on a different chain.

    Awesome job.

    This is brilliant. It just makes me want a midi solution this simple..
    If we could join the stems at the top with midi going from left to right I would be in heaven..

    Version 1.1 of DMIMixer will have 3 output ports: main mix, left only and right only, so it could be used in 3 effects chains simultaneuosly. I will release it soon. But i think @dwarman referred to software synths, not hardware ones which DMIMixer is for...

  • If you work in Effects slot then you can also work with the soft synths, I would guess. But I was thinking more along the lines of a knob for each of the synths feeding the one effect. Like a little line mixer. I don't know where in the gain structure of AB the present unity gain mixing is done to make that work though. However, with a lightweight line mixer Output App and multle audio paths we have now, I would just run the synths to the mixer with an empty effects slot, then put the mixer out in a other channel Input slot and feed the meffect from ther, to work with current AB topology. Just missing the simple line mixer. With MIDI control of course. And multiple instance capability.

    Yeah, you should. Multi-input stuff is awesome.

    Can someone make a video of this ? Is this multi input and record all at the same time supported by just the akai or any external interface can do it ?
    Might be I am confused but what I am thinking is that each interface can now feed into its own AudioBus channel and have different fx in the chain and we can use them simultaneously ... Is that correct ?

  • edited April 2014

    @thepinkelefant Yep, you have the right idea. This works great in AB2. I actually was doing it even before AB2 with two channels (mic and guitar into Focusrite 2i2). This was possible with effects apps like AUFX that go in the input slot and specify R,L, or both for their input.

    So AB2 makes it easier, allows more effects in each channel, and allows for as many separate inputs/channels as you have available on your Audio interface!

    A video would be great, I agree.

  • Hi! After deleting Audiobus can't even download it again, got late 13's iPad, latest firmware... All I got is "Waiting..." This has been going for a day now...

  • Ah... I hate that. It's a bug in iOS that I've had happen with a few other apps, too. Some day it just disappeared but I guess that's not an option. The 'easiest' way to fix it would be to back up all of your stuff and reset the iPad... but that's a lot of work and you might lose some data. :(

  • Just gave 5* review on AppStore.

    Thank you guys.

  • Amazing just completely Amazing,just one small question,its probably has been discussed ,but is AB2 going to support multichannel output interfaces?it would be great if every lane could have its own physical output.in that way an ipad and a rme interface could replace an in tire FOH fx rack.
