Auria Pro - revisiting
Downloaded and restored all my IAPs for Auria pro (basically bought the whole lot when it first arrived).
Auria is such an app that was so ahead of its time 10years ago - its still amazing and has really grabed me again. Whats not to like and be impressed with? Fabfilter synths baked in, desktop class effects plugins from many of the top vendors.
I've matured in my approach to making music and the tools we have now for ios are so developed its insane.
I would however like to see an up to date 'update' for Auria to fix the in app purchase store and some of the screen graphics fixes.
But that said, my iPad mini 6gen is working very well with this latest version of Auria and I prefer it to Cubasis and Logic in many ways

The cool thing with Auria Pro is that it even runs quite well on a much older iPad Mini 2!
True - and thats were I first used it. I still have that mini2 running ios10 for Alchemy and its a great little package.
I'm definitely keeping mine too because of Lemur, Patch Morpher (great blofeld editor), Stroke Machine and thor.
I haven't given much thought to Auria Pro for a long while, but now I'm intrigued to give it another shot. Sounds good to me.
I really like the way plugins etc appear in a floating window above your work area - you can resize and move them around too which is a great way to work and see things at play on your screen
That's definitely a great workflow! Well sh-t, I may use that for mastering my upcoming album to be honest. ☺️ (Although the album is currently on the backburner. Was commissioned to make digital art for a client, soooo I'm getting to work on that.)
@dblonde
one fun Auria (Pro) thing is that one can load in the full pallet of desktop Twin 2 presets. Yes, there is Twin 3 now but given that Twin 2 is in there already, there is something to be said for staying in the sandbox, and maybe saving some cpu? ( I might be wrong about this cpu thing…)
Here’s the thread with the ins and outs… https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/20675/auria-twin-2-i-think-i-found-out-something-very-interesting/p1
@Littlewoodg
wow missed this first time around. Thank you. Very interesting and certainly something I will do today
Very much appreciated.
I heard the dev is back up and running?? Is this true! If so I guess WaveMachine Labs is listening to people who won’t rent Logic but gave Cubasis enough time for tempo/time sig track…if Auria Pro is still in dev/updated, that’s awesome .. whatever the case, it was an amazing DAW especially for the iPad mini 2
Btw- how can you swap out a cracked iPad mini 2 screen?
I visited the Auria Forum and they said it is in active development
It was in maintenance mode before. Hopefully they have nice surprises for us. I am currently mixing my Halloween song in Auria. Its always been my mix environment of choice.
This is truely excellent news. It still has a very viable place in this ecosystem.
Yes this is incredible news actually. Just**** reinstalled my Auria Pro and IAP. I’m at almost 6 GB without any projects. What are you guys seeing your total file size at?
(@ecou its thanks to you I actually listened !)
I would be happy to take a step back and start again with Auria if we can get past the once-in-a-while freezing etc. It is still my favourite playground (but one that's grown so dusty over these passing years). Fingers firmly crossed.
If you get back in Auria Do NOT USE IT FOR MiIDI. It will crash and you will be frustrated.
I wouldn’t hold my breath. In other words - I’ll believe it when I see it.
True dat. I’ve not gave up on it because the majority of what I do with it is audio. MIDI parts I’ve done are imported in as audio.
I finish tracks in auria.
It’s basically the opposite to gadget for me. I write in gadget but would never finish a track with it. I never start a track in auria unless it’s all recorded instruments.
I wonder why midi doesn’t seem to be stable in Auria pro yet for audio it’s a champ
And also Drumagog 5 keeps crashing
I’m hopeful for an update
Auria has this (secret weapon) by PSP. There’s nothing else like it on iOS.
I use it as a recording guitars, mixing and mastering environment. I use mostly Nembrini amp, Toneboosters apps and Mixbox.
I use it for fabfilter, how easy it is to audio stretch, duplicate, pitch/automate in one move withoutbouncing down like logic, the window and when I do use midi it has pink noise right there….
But…. For mixing it’s just better. Looks better, works better, sounds better, easier… in my opinion, I’ve tried all the others, really tried because the creation part would mean my life would be easier if they were better… but for me they aren’t. (There is no arguement here with anyone else, if you work better with other things great, but I don’t. )
Yep. For me it’s mostly audio and that’s where it’s strength is really at. It’s the best mixing experience that I have encountered on iOS. It’s easy to get around as it’s all laid out in front of you and feels like you’re putting your fingers on a desk. The built in PSP channel strips are really good and the submix busses are quite perfect. I’ve always appreciated the compressors.
If I’m using MIDI at all it’s usually in a very supplementary way. That’s usually in AUM for me these days.
The only obvious issue for me at the moment is that the graphics haven’t been updated for the M2 Pro or maybe it’s iOS18 - not sure -, but my display is not full screen and some of the metering isn’t always updating all the time. It’s like I pulled an old desk out of storage and the electronics are feeling a little old. But, I kind of like that in a funny way.
Hey @ecou do you have any issues with the Nembrini apps at all in Auria? I’ve been trying to use the PSA1000 Jnr as an AUX send and it doesn’t seem to work for me.
I use auria pro for Midi too. It works for me.
It crashes seldomly. Did not try logic pro yet.
Back when I was using it I bought Auria, then when Auria Pro came out I didn’t upgrade from Auria I just bought it anew as Auria Pro, so actually have both products side by side if need be
I don’t think the issue is midi itself as far as stability is concerned. I think the issue is related to some AUv3 instruments.
My main beef with the MIDI side of things is that changing tempo after MIDI notes have been entered is a problem as midi events are tied to absolute rather than musical time. They are aware of the issue but indicated that it probably won’t be addressed.
I tried it briefly and it worked. Do you have the wet at 100% ? Also this is a mono effect if I remember well.
I only use the guitar amps.
So if you are in 4/4 and. 120 , and let’s say there’s a tempo change to 140 bpm; or you change from 4/4 to to 6/8; the midi doesn’t sync to the grid in one what of putting it? Or is it something else?
You know MTS has caught my eye
PDC
multi core
Full mixing capabilities
MIDI learn/mpe 2.0
Multiple internal fx and tools
Full cross system comparability with either Mac or windows counterpart
Tempo/time sig change
Anyone use MTS Pro?
@yellow_eyez : I mean that if you have created MIDI tracks and change the project tempo -- even if there is only one tempo for the whole project, the MIDI events don't stay at the same musical time. Here are pictures of some MIDI tracks and what happens by changing the project tempo a few times and making no other changes. All the notes are quarter notes aligned with the beat. Notice that at the end, the tempo is the same as in the beginning and things are not as they were. (At each tempo, the MIDI should appear unchanged to behave as one would expect in a MIDI sequencer.
I do. Also the desktop version. It is rock solid stable, has very powerful sample, midi and automation edition (that includes midi 2.0 automation), time stretch, tons of built in fx plugs, responsive dev etc etc. The Brutalist GUI and idiosyncraticisms seem to put people off…
also have and use Auria Pro. it has some kind of compelling appeal, partly i think because i was chasing it since it first dropped in the sense of trying to keep up with the cpu load that the first Auria then the Pro required, by buying one and then the next newer device that could run it without glitching out. And thats been years, it dropped when iPad #1 was still the thing...and turns out it still glitches out.
@Littlewoodg i totally get what you mean. I had the same experience.
The thing is though, auria taught me a lot about refining, editing, bouncing, effects, layering, workflow.
It’s a strange thing but when it could do all I wanted, it sparked some creativity until I then pushed for me. I sort of leaned and grew with it.
