    Search turns up several posts on the Koala Discord server ... if you can stomach Discord.

    Anyone having any issues with the solo and muting of the busses? Solo bus 1 and the main keeps playing and mute the solo and buss 1 keeps quiet when solo’s.

    It would be cool if the new fx went to the koala fx app to.

    i would think that soloing a buss would still allow it through to the master, otherwise you wouldnt hear it.

    Soloing a bus doesn't mute the main. So, if you have samples that aren't assigned to a bus you're still going to hear them. That makes sense to me.

    It also makes sense to me that if you mute a bus it mutes even if it's soloed. I'm not sure what seems wrong with that. It works as I prefer expect.

    You can use them with the audio inout from auv3 so it’s already done

    I do not use Koala too much cause i am not much sample guy, i use it mostly just for extracting audio from video, but the level of fluid intuitive UI which Koala has is amazing. One of best thought UI on iOS, simple yet SUPER efficient and intuitive.

    If just it adds one day build in synths collection - i can see how it may work really well - i would give it a lot of love :)

  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • Well I am no longer envious of the sp404 mk2. I can see myself using only koala, apart from synths to sample, from here on in, just enough effects and super intuitive workflow… time to delete some apps.

    very cool. i was going to say, Koala should just become a full fledged daw at this point, and looks like its on its way. Im curious how ableton export works now, if it exports the busses etc. will dig in later today.

    I dig the simplicity of it and love using it as an AU itself so I kind of hope it doesn’t become a full all-in-one DAW.

    Which apps you deleting? I can’t bring myself to delete any 😂

    I bought a 404 last year and ended up selling it. For me, it just couldn’t compete with my iPad/Koala.

    I’ve been using Koala extensively for a couple years years now. It probably makes up a 50% minimum of all my music.

    All my delays for a start! Maybe the reverbs... but not rymdigare yet.

    Oh and I agree about Koala, it is used in some way in almost everything I do

    Oof this hurts my soul to hear 😆 I’m a sucker for delays (and reverbs to an extent) so I could never. I’d be more likely to delete a bunch of synths and drum machines over my effects. That’s where the majority of my app count comes from.

    I’m just now about to dive into the update but I guess it must be good if it has you considering that.

    Koala and Drambo have been taking a lot of my time lately. AUM of course as well but those 2 are just perfect music making apps, imo. Gold standards.

  • Haven't messed with my SP404mkII much , but I don't see a reason to sell it . Sure Koala is great but for me it's just an app vs hardware and can't compare them


    Hmmm , my old Air2 is struggling , has anyone noticed overheating ? The strange part is there is no lag on the GUI or audio glitching and runs very smoothly ,but too much heat and battery is discharging fast
    Now I'm thinking maybe Koala does support multicore ?
    Haven't bought the mixer IAP yet , I don't think I'll use it but will buy it to support the dev :)

    Is it worth picking up? I've been fiending over one of those for years!

    Yes it's pretty dope ! I use it to control all perform effects + some Mute / Solo pads . have to rethink my mapping with the new update.

    It's a solid controller for sure and you can map it as you want.

    Depends if you're looking a pad controller or knob (Midi fighter 3D & Twister could be a great combo, I only have the twister for now)

  • Great to see Koala developing further! As my music making has moved towards desktop in the last year or two, but Koala is still heavily used on iOS in my workflow, my personal wish would be features that improve this iOS to desktop workflow. The ultimate of course being a stripped down Koala VST plugin for transferring all the sampling and sketching I enjoy using the iPad for, to my desktop DAW. However, smaller steps towards a smoother iOS to desktop transition would be: transferring the names of the pads and midi mapping to the exported pad file names and midi export.

    Madness! No app can cover what a multitude of other apps do in the delay space. Also, Marek did mention in the video that the reverb algo used in this is decent but not spectacular. I wouldn't go deleting any of your quality standalone fx apps just yet.

    Desperate times need desperate measures! The amount of choice I have inversely affects the amount of music I make! The reverb is a little puny at the moment, but the way he was talking I think Marek has plans to remedy that in the coming months.

    Maybe I was hasty! Let's see what happens... I'm all for challenging myself to work in a more minimalistic way...

    I usually will set some specific parameters before I start a track to give myself those creative limitations. For example: “make a track using only 3 apps, or only this app, or with this groovebox, with all drum machines, etc etc.

    This is a good way to do it... lately I've been opening drambo or Audulus or something with no specific idea and just end up messing with sounds, not sampling anything and just fiddling, it's fun, it's therapeutic even, but I feel a bit empty afterwards... as if i've been playing Slay the spire all that time.

    True, a good thing to do for sure!

  • You can't use multi out with the new effects which is a bit of a bummer but no super biggie as you can bounce whatever and then assign a channel. I'm curious where it (the new mixer) will go regarding automation and multi out in the future.

  • What a bargain. Another 4 channels would be cool but seriously, it's a lot for the upgrade price. Very cool update.

    Ok so with knobs it's one of the most complete and customizable controller (with the desktop midi Fighter app). Hope they will launch an iOS app soon though
