AudioCopy by retronyms. Get rid of annoying opening and app switching.
So when Retronyms launched AudioCopy I was quite fond of the idea, but the implementation lacked. Especially launching the damn app while copying something and switching back between apps.
I figured out that if you uninstall AudioCopy it still works. So using the Amazing AudioShare you can copy and paste like a boss.
PS: And btw, Audio Share is much much more awesome than AudioCopy.

Yes the 'App Opening' is annoying and so is the automatic 'save in to audiocopy.app archive' when all i need to do is a simple copy from one app to another without the need to save the copied content...
For housekeeping, there is no way (other than iFunBox) to remove folders with 0 samples, not even an option to hide empty folders...
AudioCopy does have an edge over AudioShare(for now) when it comes to sample-editing, but there is no way to monitor the input signal prior to recording and no way to process thru IAA effects...
Best of both worlds would be, AudioShare for storage, AudioCopy for editing and all apps implement AudioShare API to allow browse and preview of sounds to be imported, apps that don't implement AudioShare API should at least implement iOS Filepicker support...
For me It's AudioShare all the way and I'm very close to deleting AudioCopy for good...
@Samu, how do you delete it for good? I deleted it, (thought 4 good), but it still shows as an option to copy files to....
thanks
@soundklinik
Just delete the AudioCopy.app. The 'dialogues' that you see are part of the AudioCopy SDK implemented by the individual app-developers...
I find it pretty fascinating with all these AudioCopy tutorials that Retronyms are posting
In say TableTop it's not even possible to share the samples between TableTop-devices and there is no easy way to delete the pasted samples which easily can fill the iPad (Especially if downloading tracks made by others). Now if AudioCopy used iOS Fileprovider Extension TableTop could 'link' to the files already in AudioCopy i would understand it...
AudioCopy SDK also has the advantage over the general pasteboard of keeping file names intact from AppA->AC->AppB.
I would love to have an option not to save the file in AudioCopy when copy & paste between apps.
It's super annoying to use AudioCopy to copy from AudioShare or other apps and end up having duplicate files because the file is also saved in AudioCopy...
Me too. I wish everyone would implement the AudioShare SDK and let this battery sucking app go away. You can still use the general pasteboard from AudioShare, skipping the ACP app entirely. It might call it 'Intua' pasteboard, I can't remember.
I think it's called the Sonoma Pasteboard.
General Paste Board works but if the the target supports AudioCopy and the AudioCopy.app is installed it's next to impossible to 'paste' the content of the General Pasteboard as the SDK seems to prefer to browse the archive in AudioCopy.app when the app is installed.
When the AudioCopy.app is not present paste AudioCopy-Paste from the General Paste Board works as expected.
+1 for AudioShare SDK support in all Audio related apps...
can all apps that support copy/paste use the general pasteboard, or do some require that Audiocopy be installed?
i totally agree it's a pain to have the app keeping duplicate (triplicate since all my stuff goes in Audioshare) copies of every file it pastes, and i'm just waiting for its time to pass.
AudioCopy SDK reverts to using General Pasteboard if the AudioCopy.app is not installed.
On My iPhone i don't have AudioCopy.app installed and can easily use 'AudioCopy' to copy from Figure and iKaossilator and paste the stuff into AudioShare, the only downside is that I need to manually rename the pasted samples/loops, no big deal really, that is if the target app allows renaming of pasted content...
I have an idea how about R. Nym start acting like they know this is annoying, they've been through delete fiascos before and fixed them. What say you Mr. Nym?
Mr. Nym says "we are looking into it. "
Translation:
"We made this app a while ago. We are on to new apps and not worried about finishing apps after they are released. By the way, be sure to check out our series of 20 teaser videos for our new app. It's fun making videos, much more than fixing problems and adding features to older apps that are incomplete. We will however, pop into the forum to comment once per month so you anticipate a fix."
You know, @mrufino1, back in the real world big companies ask my little company to go find out what people really think about them. If you keep nailing brand perception in a pithy paragraph there will be no shoes left for baby. Just saying.
Ha! I'm a social worker, much training to look at all sides of a situation. And no danger of me ever taking a business world job from anyone!
And by no shoes for baby, I assume you mean "I won't be able to afford auria pro?"
I just wished when Mr. Nym entered the lions den, he'd bring the cat food!
@mrufino1 In the unlikely face-off between Baby and Auria Pro, Baby will be sold.
You know me too well, JG
I think issues like this exist because the iOS platform is still in the stages of guffawing over any old app that shows up. samplers that don't edit samples, sequencers that don't sequence apps, audio editors that don't let you delete audio and other stuff that would get the book thrown at you in the real world.. there is way too large a gap between high development quality the likes of audanika, kymatica, holderness, etc… and others that for some reason the community still accepts and rewards…I don't really understand it it just looks like the community doesn't hold apps to any standard. people are still making apps without copy/paste, drum machines are still getting made that discourage using your own samples and such, apps that still don't have audio bus…. and it's always the same story that the community swallows up… 'we wanted to get the app out to you fast' sigh… , or sometimes they say that they are not targeting the iOS music community but are really targeting the consumer-we don't care about audio bus- community…. well ok if that is the case then why are you talking about your app on the ab forum and why are you talking about your app on discchord,and why are you talking about your app in the iOS fb group?
imho the community should encourage devs to get the basics in and not waste peoples time.
The AudioCopy app is shit and the fact that Retronyms added a damn sample store to it is so tacky on their part. The app should be an utterly minimal utility that stays out of the way of your workflow, but instead it's a constant pain in the ass.
For the past several months I kept it around because Korg Gadget required it for pasting samples into Abu Dhabi and Bilbao without ending up with a bunch of samples named "Pasteboard(##)" or whatever. Now, however, I'm just copying stuff from Gadget and pasting it into SunVox using the general pasteboard, and SunVox allows me to rename the samples. So I happily deleted the AudioCopy app.
Sure, the AudioCopy app is free and AudioShare isn't free, but AudioShare is FAR better, and I wish more apps would implement its SDK.
Yes syrupcore, dont like it too, and look into http://www.retronyms.com/ourapps.html
there is no ACP, LoL!!!
I can't understand why anyone in their right mind would trust Retronyms and invest in any of their offerings after they abandoned iMPC while lying that they were working to correct bugs in it, promised to make up for it by giving a discount to iMPC customers who "upgraded" to iMPC Pro then quickly abandoned that after promising in July 2014 that they were working on bugs and missing features for iMPC Pro. It is now Feb. 2015 and all we have seen are other apps. , hardware gimmicks and overpriced sound packs. None of their new (or old) apps. have Audiobus so their users are handcuffed to IAA which constrains the all-important workflow unnecessarily. Their management are like the Seattle Seahawks, they had the ball on the 1 yard line and elected to throw the dam ball away. iMPC Pro is Marshawn Lynch.
best superbowl analogy I've read since the game^
Lol, I may sound like a 'hater' but I'm more like a pissed off fan. Retronyms does things that make you shake your head - like promoting a price reduction/sale of iMPC, an abandoned, buggy, unfinished product. Why?
you don't have to explain anything, I gave them their first bug report for the original impc, and from that day until now they've given me nothing but 'the treatment'…. and they like playing with your head by fixing some stuff, and not other stuff that's even easier to fix. I'm sure that JP and Dan have sprained middle fingers by now lol
I never expected a fix for the iMPC Pro issues, and so I wasn't disappointed when it failed to materialise. I've registered my dissatisfaction with their service by no longer buying apps made by Retronyms.
Maybe this is some clever strategy on their part as regards sending expectations into the basement...although the removal of the customer's will to make any future purchase would seem to be a bit of a flaw....
the last thing I would ever do is let someone I disagree with decide anything for me, even if it's on purchasing a product that they developed after they didn't deliver on the prior product they developed (original impc)… the current version is 5000 times better than the previous version even though it still includes the bugs that I told them about on the first day of release on the previous version. music comes first, when I have a working instrument in my hands I don't' waste any time thinking about who made it. if they sort out the core audio issue I'll be good for the next 100 years on this app, If marcos implements panning in Samplr and the ability to edit the sample waveforms in their sample slots again I'll be good even if he never gets to the file management issues that I've been complaining about since it came out. whomever said that adversity was a bitch was right but if I let some knuckleheads stop me from using what I like in an app then that would just be the icing on the cake.
btw Marcos is not included in that knucklehead ref.
Looks like Retronyms may have an announcement: Shot a new iMPC Pro Log yesterday. Will post it soon /JP
