Did the Beta on this.. Got to say, Lumbeat stepped up his game on this one..
Very Nice..
Mine.. 😎
Is this one also IAA only?
IAA and standalone
I figured sigh 😔
Anyone tried it yet?
Honestly, I've had enough of companies that clearly don't care about what customers want. I may be wrong but there's no way to really know. I think auv3 is a pretty standard requirement. Most developers get it. To release a plugin today that only has IAA seems like an attempt to fleece customers out of more money while they can. Until Lumbeat show that they hear the request for auv3 and show that it is something they are capable of implementing I don't feel I can spend another cent on them. I like what they do but they don't seem to be listening. Disagree if you like but understand this is really how I personally feel.
Nah I agree with you. It’s harsh but true. People have basically been begging the dev to make these AUs for how long now? It’s not like they haven’t heard it. And every new release is still IAA only despite AU being standard since 2018ish. And not cheap on top of that.
The apps seem really cool but I don’t buy IAA apps anymore. Even if they’re $2. Much less almost $20.
Ditto for Korg as well, although Korg seem to be just releasing sound packs on iOS now.
Agree💯.. and: no intro price, quite unusual these days. Always been a bit pricier. And those ridiculous spontaneous one day sales one always spot too late (well, in the past that is, no more shopping from Lumbeat for me till Auv3).
Likely using the same SW / App engine that cannot be converted to AUv3. Semi tragedy as is Patterning
At least Korg made their 2 best apps - Wave and Module - AU.
Yep IAA.. No Auv3.
IAA can’t be used in logic, correct?
I have been a big advocate for AUv3 over the years but, once you accept that it’s just not currently possible in the Lumbeat framework, there really is nothing else on iOS like this.
If you love beats then you’re going to have a lot of fun with this. The sounds, the patterns, the fills, the swing per track. Sample preview is a really nice workflow addition. I solo individual tracks using the mixer and then bounce to audio and then layer other patterns on and bounce again etc.
I will have more fun with this than any new AUv3 compressor or EQ etc.
Correct. You have to use the loop export function and import the audio, I guess (I don’t own Logic Pro)
I was able to get iaa audio (samplr) into Logic successfully using the new kq voice loopback app. Just tested with mid East drummer. A bit convoluted and maybe someone can figure out an easier way but here’s what I did:
Load your Iaa app in AUM. Load an fx node with kq loopback IN
In logic create a midi track with kq loopback OUT as the instrument
You should be hearing your iaa app. Sync logic and AUM using ableton link
Create a bus out of the midi track then create an audio track with that bus as input
Record your audio. I just did a rough check using the logic metronome but doesn’t seem to be terrible latency
There’s no fleecing going on. Maybe he cares about and simply can’t afford to accommodate those that require AU versions.
If you don’t want standalone apps, don’t buy them. People can steer clear if they don’t want standalone or IAA apps.
Fleecing implies dishonesty. There is no evidence of that here.
People that scream about developers not caring certainly have no idea how much money a developer like LUMBEATS earns or how much work would be involved in creating an AUv3 version. Remember that his framework has been around a long time. It is very different to totally revamp a framework developed ages ago for a standalone than to start a new one knowing that it will have to run as a plugin. Lots of developers of standalone apps have found it impractical to make them into AU.
He may simply have decided that he wouldn’t receive a reasonable return and that there are still enough people interested in his apps to release new ones.
He has been open about looking into AUv3 and not having found a feasible way to rewrite the apps as AU.
The bad intentions some are ascribing seem unkind at best.
Hope we get iBassist support for this beauty... 'Make Drums' and an iBassist Hip Hop Bank...
Export Midi works ok for Logic and Ableton Linked.
Tbh it’s a bit like you aren’t listening, not the dev. 🙂 I mean, they openly stated here in the forum, probably multiple times, that they don’t see a reasonable way to make their apps auv3. That’s very different from not listening, isn’t it.
Needless to say it’s totally valid to not buy apps you don’t want, why would you; but devs openly admitting to you to be currently unable to produce what you want is not “not listening”. With respect, I honestly think you’re wrong about that.
Whelp….no auv3…..have to pass on it
Might pass
But good luck to the dev
Got plenty of great loops from the fantastic reggae drummer
And ibassist still gets used by me
Like I said "I may be wrong but there's no way to really know" and "Disagree if you like but understand this is really how I personally feel". You are right in that fleecing implies dishonesty. That's why I said "seems" rather than "is". What I'm saying is that to ignore what seems to be a screamingly obvious user requirement and reproduce the same old connectivity they know how to do seems like a deliberate ignoring of what people want. Sure it would be unreasonable to say they have released this product thinking most people are not bothered about auv3. To me, again IMPO, that sort of lack of user awareness could only be deliberate or beyond complacent. Just putting my opinion out there.
That's a fair comment. But I do know their position on this. But to be honest it doesn't change my opinion. The time is here to figure it out, not charge the same rate as 4 years ago and ease back into the recliner of "I don't know how to do it".
To me it's still not listening because in my personal opinion, I am way past anyone that says it's too difficult or I don't know how, or I will just keep releasing old tech and charge top dollar. If they want to do that it's fine. Absolutely totally fine. Like 100% totally let's go with that model. Tell the world we don't know anything about batteries so we are just going to keep making cars that consume fuel like 50 years ago. It's just time, again IMPO, where I say nope, that doesn't cut it in todays world. Get with it or go to the back of the line and work it out. Unless your plan for sales is short term.
You said: "To release a plugin today that only has IAA seems like an attempt to fleece customers out of more money while they can."
Saying that someone seems to be fleecing customers is still an accusation..one that seems uncalled for.
It isn't lack of user awareness. He is aware and has said it isn't feasible for him to create AUv3 versions.
Obviously, for many people it isn't a requirement for an app to be AUv3. The market will let him know if there are enough of those people to make it worth his while or not. It doesn't seem unreasonable for him to continue serving the customers happy with what he offers.
You are perfectly free to not buy standalone apps.
Very true statement @espiegel123 ..and the community is speaking with a Top 10 paid app in the US with no intro or AUv3 🤷🏾♂️. Numbers always tell the real story
Ok, I thought we were just having a conversation but you have put a statement that I didn't make in quotation marks and that makes it look like I stated your interpretation of my words, which I didn't. Would be nice if you removed the quotation marks.
Saying an old man that hangs around a playground full of children every days seems a bit suspicious is different to saying "it is my opinion that this man is a pedophile".
What I'm saying is stop looking into into auv3 while releasing old tech. I'm saying, figure it out and then release your products. It's a request, not an order. Others are doing it. It is possible, but just (apparently) really, really, really bloody difficult. But what I'm saying is I don't really care. It's the developers job to release plugins and my job to buy or not to buy. If the developer is happy with its really hard, it's not feasible or I don't know how then go ahead.
There is no need for anyone to parrot the idea that if I don't like it don't buy it. That is what I've been saying I'll do right from my first post. Not sure why anyone would see the value in telling me to do something that was at the core of my post.
@Ailerom : i have rewritten my post for clarity and included your direct quote.
The point is that you are going out of your way to raise bad feelings and dismissiveness and accusations about dishonesty towards someone rather than deciding you aren't interested and choosing not to comment because you aren't interested.
You could have said: I am not interested in apps that aren't AUv3. Instead, you expressed the idea that the developer is cheating people.
Thanks, I appreciate that. Although I did say seems like "an attempt to fleece", not seems to be fleecing. Again, from my point of view it's just a conversation. No accusations intended. Just how I see this situation and what to expect from me as a potential customer.
Well actually, not a potential customer. A very real customer that has spent well over AU$200 on Lumbeat apps saying no more from me until auv3. Great products but for me, not in every aspect.
If, (and I understand that with my coding knowledge it's a BIG IF) that is what the issue is, then it's time to rewrite, rebuild that engine. It won't be the first time someone has done it. And to not do it seems like not really placing any value on what a portion of your customers want.
I will say, if they did make these AU they would 1000% make a customer out of me, and I’m sure a few others, but hey if it works for them, then cool. I’m not in the business of telling other people how to run there’s. It would be fantastic to have these as Audio Units though as they look fantastic. This new one and the bass player app in particular. Also soft drummer. Now that I think about it, if these because AUV3 overnight I’d probably wake up and spend $100 tomorrow.
