    I went in with low / no expectations and it's better than expected. Not perfect, not a replacement for a desktop daw which I wasn't expecting at all. But pretty deep and well functional app. The step sequencer and patterns are my favorite.

    Biggest gripes is dragging and dropping of samples, wish Files was natively integrated. And automation is lacking.

    My biggest concern is not how much Apple will maintain it or add some refinements but how this might effect other great hosts that we have already like AUM, Drambo, and Loopy Pro. These are all unique apps and I wonder how many users will now choose them over Logic. They are all unique and better in most ways but for the average user will they choose to invest in those now that this exists?

    No, Automation is NOT lacking, it’s there in Logic for iPad, and, it’s deep and a versatile Automation…

    I’m just now about to fully dive in but I will say, if I had to choose between the 3 you mentioned and Logic, I’d chose those 3 any day. No chance will AUM and Drambo (and even LP) be abandoned by me.

  • My first beats. Tried recording some OP1 and guitar. I freaking love it. I need midi mapping and stuff but for a first version this is bananas

  • So what’s the story with Sample Alchemy in fact being Samplr?

    Yeah, I was wondering about that as well, haven’t seen it mentioned by anyone since release?

    It’s got similar scrubbing, arp etc. functionality to Samplr.

    Used it twice. Crashed twice.

    I don’t suppose anyone’s been brave/foolish enough to trial on an air 3?

    I’m thinking I should wait until it’s either reported cool as beans on my old thing, or I get a new iPad, whichever comes sooner…

    I’ve used it on a base model 8th gen iPad. Surprisingly usable (within reason).

    I have a performance review video coming later today.

    Ah interesting, they’re fairly equivalent, I’ll check out your video when it appears, thanks!

    Editing some of the instruments is sending me to logic on Mac which is sad. Hoping to edit my Hollywood strings and make different patches and so on.

    Can you explain this further? Native instruments?

  • After watching some videos I think overall it seems pretty good which is good news for the platform, everyone wins from this. It's not for me but I can see the appeal.

    Apple will sell more larger ipads, those that wanted Logic on ipad have a version of it which enables them to go between mac and iPad. Ableton and other Daws will probably also sell more from this when some people discover that works better for them after discovering other software through their iPad. Other iPad hosts and apps like AUM will sell more when some people discover that they're more fun and fluid for live use after trying Logic.

    It's a relatively small ecosystem with a huge crossover so I think it all helps :)

    There’s an opportunity for those developers to appeal to a larger audience now for sure. Not saying it will be easy…

    I know we all want different things from iPad audio and I’m thinking Logic Pro will make a huge difference for me.

    I want a separate environment that is very different to the Mac version. I already have a mobile version of Logic on my MacBook.

    I want an app that actually opens up all the cool and unique apps the iPad has more easily and now with Logic I have it.

    Just being able to load up a Ruismaker, programme a beat with the step editor, using step automation of parameters ‘parameter lock style’ then glitch it up with beat breaker and then, with a couple of taps, bounce it in place ready to open on my Mac from iCloud Drive almost instantly?

    It’s what I’ve wanted for years.

    I’d not used my iOS for music for a long time. My M1 MacBook Pro is everything I wanted my iPad to be — maybe now I’ll be encouraged to use the iPad a lot more for all the things it’s great at. And having apps like AUM are part of that.

    I still like cobbling together little 8 bar groovebox loops in AUM. Now I have a platform that im at home in on the same device to quickly expand those ideas.

    I can then go back to AUM for a B section or just carry on in Live Loops on Logic… so many options now. Very cool.

    So far I’m very happy. I’m looking forward to using it to start a song and seeing how it goes. Having the on screen keyboard/drum pads/chord tabs etc. will make it fun to jam ideas into the iPad.

    In my mind I will find it easy to start from zero on the iPad due to being able to just jam with it without needing controllers, etc. and it’s different and often that will encourage different ideas — bypassing my usual methods will shake things up maybe?

    Once an idea starts to take shape I’m all in on the Mac. I don’t see that changing.

    And hopefully Logic will encourage other devs to join the party. As nobody will be ‘all in’ with Logic due to the sub, it’ll be easy to dip in and out with other DAWs too — maybe 🤔

    LP iOS will not replace AUM, Drambo or LoopyPro. There are a future Drambo as it fan club and they will still use it. Most of us don’t use it and new iPad music maker will skip Drambo. But they will enjoy to use AUM as it quick and it is easy and fun even to test an app or jam idea and LoopyPro is wonderful for stage performance or as intelligent control surface. Music include DJ and Loopy pro can be very useful for DJ too that will discover it.

    What to do with NS2 ? Il will be the looser in the game , nope to expect to compete or even to add audio , it now bring nothing that now make a difference.

    I keep with LP on my iPad only top apps that can work with LP or Cubasis , I keep Cubasis 3 and will use more AUM that I need to learn and I want to discover how I can add in my set up Loopy Pro.

    I've not used it on my iPad for ages.

    I do use it on my iPhone though. It's pretty great on the iPhone, perfect for a scratchpad.

    I think that for IPhone and the older ipad some will keep NS2 but it will don’t make a market have you will keep it still NS2 will run. I don’t see anybody willing to buy now NS2 as a Daw.

    Old apps are still here and work great on older iPad or iPhone but they don’t generate new cash .

    I don't think NS2 has generated much new cash for a while. Hence it's in stasis/minimal maintenance mode. But no, not an easy app to sell today.

    It’s an original instrument in GarageBand iOS I really like. When you go to open it up it prompts you to have to use logic on Mac to adjust it. You are stuck with that sound unless you throw a bunch of fx on it. Even in gb you can adjust some settings.

    You call it a synth. Does it mean it isn’t as close to the original Samplr? I mean in terms of ‘playing the wave’ with your fingers?

    My newest iPad is from 2017 so I can't even try it -- but I'm sure it's great, despite the lack of clones (which to me is about on the same level of oddity as NS2 not having audio tracks 😄). It would definitely be very hard to use for serious EDM.

    what you mean with clones ??

    The ability to create linked copies of clips where all copies change when any of them is edited.

    You can loop regions, which is similar to clones, whereby any changes to the 'master' region is repeated throughout the 'looped' copies. That's as far as I got with my investigations...!

    looped region and region alias are VERY different beasts with very differrent use cases …

    Yes but I didn't know that region looping is possible, so that provides 50% of the two essential "somehow-make-linked-copies" features in any serious DAW 😊

  • Has anyone figured out if there’s a way to export just a region? Like if I have a bit of audio or a midi clip sitting in a region on a track, can I export just that little piece for use elsewhere? I tried to find a menu option as well as drag/dropping it into the Files app. So far no go.

    No other than just tap on clip > cycle > selection (to loop song exactly to the clip), then solo track and then export ...

    you can also dragndrop any clip into sampler and it drops it as sample loop but you cant it export out of logic any other way than using export

    Thanks @dendy. I hadn’t quite pieced that together. Maybe they’ll make a slicker way in the future, but for now, that will work!

    This was fun. But now, how to turn off new Logic Pro threads from showing up on my feed? Can I unfollow Logic for a while? There are 10 Logic topics on the first forum page alone. At least with D it's mostly contained in a single thread.

    You can limit what you see to threads you “Follow” here, but your options are not very fine-grained.
