Bitwig is fairly easy to get used to if you used Ableton. The more I use the more intuitive it becomes. I recommend using the lite version for a while to see what's possible. I don't even use Bitwig Grid, but mostly use it with VCV Rack and other VSTs.
Bitwig is a DAW, so that's out of the question. Why would you even consider this to be anything close to our DAW-less king?! You know, it’s all about restrictions, speed, and a different mindset. 😉
Anyway, without a touch screen, AUM will probably lose half of its strength. 😔
Blue Cat Audio Patchwork is not quite like AUM but it’s a nice plug-in host with no DAW, etc.

I’ve been hoping these guys port their stuff to iOS for ages…
The problem I find is that Bitwig, Gig Performer, Hosting AU, Kushview Elements, and many others don't support Auv3.
There are a couple of iOS Auv3 hosting apps that do pretty well on silicon Macs, but they can't use VSTs, and many don't pick up AU plugins.
I would really love an app that helps my AUs and Auv3s dance together properly.
Logic, Live, Camelot Pro seem to be my only choices.
(Sessions, a new kid on the block, hardly has any MIDI functionality at all and can't use MIDI fx plugins.)
Any other contenders?
Hosting AU supports AUv3.
That's really interesting. Thanks for that link.
Thanks @wim - I will give it another look. I tried Hosting AU for a few weeks a year or so ago.
Thought it was okay but very limited - there was something really simple I wanted it to do and it couldn't so I gave up fairly quickly.
I might by now have an Auv3 that does what I didn't think it could do. 🙂
Tracktion Waveform Pro now supports AUv3 but I’m not sure if the free version does.
MIDI fx plugin support is on the roadmap for Sessions.
PatchWork looks terrible compared to AUM. 😵💫 In this case, I completely agree to jump straight to Bitwig and forget AUM ever existed. 🤦♂️
Thanks @enkaytee. I am very glad it is! Can't happen soon enough for me. 😁
If sessions adds MIDI plugin support,
and a meaningful way to work with the recordings from the "always on recording" feature,
it will be a most excellent app. 🤞
