the iConnectivity Midi2+ "Audio PassThru" - Does it work on PCs?

February 9, 2019, 7:44 pm

I have owned this one of these little boxes for a few years now and was rather disappointed when I discovered that one of it's coolest features wouldn't work (as advertised) on PC based systems, just Macs. The feature I'm speaking of is Audio PassThru, which is supposed to allow you to send both, the midi and audio signals from your iPad app to the DAW on your computer, through the USB Lightning connection. The only problem is, a few years back, when I bought the iConnect Midi 2+, I found that AudioThru only worked on Macs, but not on PCs.

The issue back a few years, was Macs allowed for Aggregate Devices to be added and Windows couldn't. I'm not sure if anything has really changed for those of us who are still stuck in PC land.

Anyway, I am curious if there is anybody out there who has been able to use the Audio PassThru function, going from an iPad app to a PC based DAW. All the documentation that I have found says that Audio PassThru will work with either PCs or Macs or maybe they just failed to mention that one of the major features doesn't work on a PC.

Thomas Lehn’s Synthi Stolen in Copenhagen

https://matrixsynth.com/2019/02/stolen-ems-synthi.html

I’ve met Thomas a few times over the years and have a great respect for his playing.. i thought this forum might have wide enough coverage amongst decent musician folk to be worth posting the Matrix Synth link here... clearly someone will be trying to flog this ( probably in Denmark, maybe globally via ebay ) so it would be good to keep an eye out for an EMS synthi going at a ridiculous bargain price..
the serial number is 45629. i doubt he has the money to replace it easily.

Quick question: any iOS 9 + GarageBand + AB users here? Work for you?

Hi! Getting a support request from someone on an iPad 2 (yikes) who can't see GB in the output slot in AB3. I don't have any devices capable of running iOS 9 any more, so I can't try it out myself. Anyone on iOS 9 who can report on whether GB works?

Connecting Navichord and Beatmaker 3 with an AUv3

Hey guys! Very new to iPad Pro producing and virtual signal workflows, so I heavily apologize if this is a common question.

In my version if AudioBus 3, there is a MIDI section, AUDIO section, and MIXER.

I can successfully connect Navichord to one of my audio unit synths (FM Player, for this example), and play chords in Navichord while hearing the playback from whichever synth I connect it to. The way I am currently doing this is by going to the MIDI page, placing Navichord as the input and then (insert synth) as the output. Is this the correct way of doing this?

Then, where I am really struggling is playing in Navichord and recording what I am playing into my Beatmaker 3 sequence.

I’ve tried a few ways with no avail, mostly by going to the AUDIO page and connecting the Synth audio unit to Beatmaker 3.

I can control the record button from within the Navichord app with the AudioBus side bar, but when I record and return to Beatmaker, nothing seemed to have been recorded, no midi or audio.

Does anyone have any way to make this work? I would very much appreciate it, I am starting to frustrate myself I think haha. Any screenshots or something would help. I did find an old forum post showing an audioless video of someone connecting what seems to be Navichord to Poison202 in BM3 but the video hasn’t helped me reach my goal at all.

Thanks guys :)

Help! Cubasis Will Not Mix Down./ SOLVED

Well, I thought these days were gone with my iPad4.
I just completed a track in a Cubasis.
It plays fine when I press play.
When I attempt a mix, it mixes down in a second, displays 350 kB and silence.
I closed the app, opened, recreated the tracks from Projects. Plays fine.
Still mixes in a flash to 350kb and silence.
Messed with the real-time and freezing options in settings. No luck.

I tried uploading another project. Mixed down fine. But not this current one.
I would hate to lose the project, although the project seems ok. But without a mix down....Any thoughts?

No problem with the IAA version...

Anyone else having this problem ?

Audiokit Synth One - connect from iPad to Reaper / PC

February 20, 2019, 2:30 pm

Hi. Like to run Audiokit Synth One by a Nektar Keyboard controller and have the sounds go digitally connect from iPad to Reaper / PC.

So far, if I connect the ipad directly to my PC, I can see my iPad in Reaper (studeomux), but can't control the iPad by my keyboard controller or see sound in Reaper. Bought audiobus3 as well. No effect. Not sure of how these two apps operate.

What seems to work: If I plug the Nektar keyboard controller into a powered hub, connect a powered usb speaker to that hub, and then send the hub output to an Apple Lightning connector into my iPad - then 1) I can play the iPad Synth One by my Nektar Image GX49 controller, and 2) hear the sounds from the external usb speaker. I do have analog outs ch1/ch2 in the back of the monitor 2usb unit (Behringer), so if I wanted to record I could connect these outputs to two inputs in the back of my ADDA Interface. I'd like to keep all in the digital world.

Tried usb from powered hub to pc - nothing. The only time my pc sees the controller by usb, is if the hub output goes to the pc: now the hub is connected to the iPad.

What about wireless midi from the iPad to my PC - bluetooth / wi-fi ???

Hi, I was uploading to SoundCloud last night and there was a slight static pop and the download ceased. I tried to upload again and Cubasis would not allow, and it froze. Relaunched and same occurred. Also, all connections, google, YouTube, stopped though the strength Icon is at full.

I tried another network and no problem. This is happening on all three iPads. Any ideas what the problem is? I assume it is not Cubasis or my iPads. I contact my server? Thanks!

Hello,


I'm experiencing very bad audio quality on JBL Bluetooth headphones connected to my iPad when using Cubasis. If I disconnect them and use some chord headphones, audio quality is normal, good quality. Anyone else experiencing this same issue?


NOTE: Latest versions of iOS and Cubasis.


Thanks in advance.


Cheers!

Set input gain in AudioBus?

How do I set input gain in AudioBus? When AUM is hooked up to AudioBus, I can’t set the input gain there. This means that all my recordings are way too quiet. The only way I can see around it is to not use AB. If I use AUM alone I can set this up to 100%. Here’s the problem:


I’m using a K-Mix, which doesn’t disable input gain settings like most mixers do. Hence the problem.

48 & 96k not working with Auria using AUM & Audiobus

February 23, 2019, 1:51 pm

Hi, new here...

Saw some threads that kinda went into this but it didn't feel like any answers were difinitive.

Running Audiobus 3 with AUM and Auria Pro on a new 2018 iPad Pro. Having issues with anything that isn't 44k as long as Audiobus is in the mix.

I can't get Audiobus 3 to connect to Auria at anything other than 44k without issues. I'm trying to link AUM to route from my interface (SPL Crimson 3) to Auria for recording (1, 2, 3 & 4), then control the outputs of the Crimson for sending out two custom audio streams (2 & 3 in to 1 & 2 out, and 1, 2, 3 & 4 out to 3 & 4).

Everything works in 44k just fine. But when i switch AUM and Auria to anything else (same in both obviously), it doesn't work. If i try to launch Audiobus first, then Auria—Auria won't load anything but a 44k project (and throws up a warning). If i load both AUM and Auria first (both set to 96k), then it works independently, but as soon as i link them, i get what sounds like a bunch of jitter/distortion of the signal into Auria (still sounds fine going into and out of AUM).

So something in the bridge (Audiobus) is not letting the signal properly stay at 48 or 96.

It's not a huge deal for the recording into Auria, as i can just run AUM for routing and mute the playback in Auria when recording, at any sample rate. But if i did want to record IIA into Auria via Audiobus, it would appear i can only do that at 44k?

I've read a bunch of threads and the information is all over the place, so i'm starting a new one to ask specifically and hopefully get a totally straight and clear answer (lol). I've even hear people say to launch the apps in the order you want to first set the sample rate, then do Audiobus to link, or one of the Admins here say always start with Audiobus... So no clear answers yet other than that it won't work regardless of the order as long as Audiobus is in the center.

I think i even saw someone say to run Audiobus 2, but i don't get how that would help if it doesn't support the higher sample rates anyway.

Any help would be great. Just knowing what the options and limitations actually are would at least make it clear what i can't do.

Thanks!

USB Midi connection issue

Hello fellow audiobussers, 

I have a funny issue with iPad Air 2 latest iOS and midi gear. As well with my MPK 225 MIDI controller and my newest addition on the euro rack case; HP 2 MIDI.

When I try to connect the iPad doesn't recognise the USB MIDI stuff in AUM or e.g. patterning only if I hook up a few times with the CCK (without power, the first one), put a powered USB hub in between and disconnect between the CCK and the out of the USB hub. 

In the end the iPad suddenly pops up the 2 HP and midi controller in the MIDI matrix in AUM.

after that I can disconnect and connect the stuff with a time pause as much as I like untill I reboot the iPad for example.

The question is why is this happening? The stuff hooks up to reason 7 without a question on my MBP. 

I've read your need to connect the CCK first to your USB device BEFORE stick it up the iPad but it seems to be another issue and this is very frustrating.

Do I need the CCK with power instead?I

I don't know why it's going on, but I can't seem to access page 25 of the Korg 2 thread. This is how it appears instead.

What's even stranger is I can access all of the other pages. I just can't read page 25. @Michael @syrupcore If either of you can look into this, I'd greatly appreciate it. :) Thanks.

Buffer size set by usb sound card?

February 7, 2019, 10:55 am

I use AUM for hosting FX plugins. The Ipad 2017 with AUM is connected to the internal usb soundcard of my digital Midas MR18 mixer. The buffer size is 1024 frames every time I open AUM and the MR18 is connected. I can lower the buffer size but it goes back to 1024 every time I (re)open AUM. The problem goes away if I disconnect the usb cable, the buffer size stays the same as previously adjusted.
2nd problem is that IOS shuts down AUM after a few hours when the mixer is connected. It seems to be better so far with the mixer disconnected.
Does anyone has similar issues or knows what causes this?

Pops and Crackles running Gadget and Groovebox linked together?

Does anyone have any suggestions to explain this, and how to cure it, please?!

Recently whilst still on iOS11-something, I noticed the most horrendous pops and crackles suddenly started happening when running Gadget (1) and Groovebox together via Ableton Link. It quickly gets worse when you start opening up individual Gadgets to jam along with or swiping the screen over the tracks. This only started recently, and had never happened at any time in the past as this is how I have always worked without any trouble at all, running a Gadget sketch alongside a Groovebox sketch to audition potential things together. I have not changed any latency settings. Nothing is different to how I have always worked with these two apps linked together. It just seems to have started occurring recently.

I'm on an iPad Pro 256GB from 2016. I've just acquired the Gadget 2 update and also updated the iPad to the latest OS. I thought this might address the sudden mysterious issue, but it is still exactly the same.

At present, this simple combo of linked apps has mysteriously become totally impossible to work with, quickly ending in a nasty angry wash of pops and crackles.

I made a quick video to demonstrate this. If you have a moment and are able to check the link, the video will show how bad it is. Yeah, it's probably sideways and looks totally weird and shaky, but I'm not concerned with how it looks. The awful sound coming from my iPad is the thing to pay attention to (and I don't mean my music. Lol)

Any ideas and suggestions as to what is causing this would be much appreciated, as my favourite workflow has now come to a grinding halt.

Many thanks!
