Audiobus: Use your music apps together.

What is Audiobus?Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

See track view when recording guitar in Garageband

Is it possible to see the tracks /regions when recording electric guitar in Garageband, rather than a big picture of the amp? Same when recording audio - I want to view the tracks, not a picture of a mic, if possible!

Is that an option?

  • I don’t think so. It’s even worse when recording into cells in the grid view, where you actually need to see what’s going on.

  • I don’t think so either. Yuk. For someone who has used desktop DAWs for many years this is alien. Like I’m recording blind. Seems like an odd way to design things.

    I’d like to try to get my head around it, as I like 90% of GB and it would be a shame to reject it because of this.

  • Just try to ignore it. It works for me, most of the time :)

  • You need a multichannel interface,and turn multitrack recording on,in the settings.Then just record into one track. Pete Johns has some tutorials on his channel.

    So my iRig Pro I/o won’t work. But thanks for the info. I’ll have a look at Pete Johns stuff. I love the fact GB “just works”.

    Does this stop the giant amp appearing?

  • If you have second device and use the Jam Session, you can see everything laid out while recording on the second device. A pain for sure. But it works.

  • This is why I got iPad Pro 12.9. GB’s resolution allows you to see the tracks while recording.

    It’s a shame they’ve stopped developing the core app though. They are just content with quarterly sound packs now.
