Thanks, I just got the same recommendation from the Audiobus forums - so far it’s not working, but I’m sure I’m doing something wrong and have missed some crucial info somewhere. Going to power cycle everything and start from scratch!

Edit-Update: launched Audiobus to see if it would work and the midi notes magically started appearing in AUM! Will have to investigate why Audiobus was needed but at least I’m getting midi from the phone to the iPad now!

Well I’ve gotten myself into a pickle. I’ve been just recording everything willy nilly via AUM without too much thought about eventually relocating the files, figuring I would just move everything in one fell swoop when I needed to. So the time is nigh, and for the life of me I cannot find a good way to do this from Audio Share. The Dropbox export is for all intents and purposes useless for moving that many files and folders. As a matter of fact, I can’t get a single file to export, much less 100GB. I can connect to the laptop via the browser, but you have to select files individually, which is also not an option. I can’t hold out for the new iOS as I will run out of room well before that hits the street, and Audio Share would still need to provide a mechanism to use that new external drive functionality… also I have most everything up on Soundcloud but getting files off of there is just as problematic.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

I think AudioShare will show up in the Files app by default (it shows up for me, but I can’t find any settings for this in the app)

From the Files app, you should be able to AirDrop, or copy to iCloud Drive, and let the Files app do the export/syncing

Ah, I didn’t think about going at it from that angle, nice one! I will let you know how it works out.

I can’t wait for iPadOS and a true file navigation system…

Well that worked kinda. I think. When I tried to move the whole AUM Recordings folder, it errored out with a weird error. When I did it in monthly batches, it went fast, BUT the files are sitting in the Files iCloud folder and nearly all are marked “waiting to upload”. I tried a test and deleted one of these from Audio Share, and it still plays in Files, so I don’t know what’s happening there. I did panic at one point that it was going to duplicate all of the files into the Files app, but it appears they are safely somehow in iCloud, even though they are “waiting to upload”. So we shall see, and thanks for the tip, if it works that’s a life saver!

Update: everything uploaded to iCloud overnight, but much to my chagrin, Apple decided all of those files should be on my iPad, as well as in the cloud, so my iPad is now completely full. I deleted all of the Audio Share files, but I am still sitting at the same amount of storage usage as I was before I started. The good thing is that now that they are on iCloud, I can move them wherever and remove them from iCloud, so there’s that… what a PITA.

You can use the classic iTunes method of transferring files from iOS to do this. First in AudioShare, you select all of the documents and folders, and then move them to iTunes File Sharing. Plug your iPad into your computer, open iTunes, click on the phone icon, click File Sharing on the left menu, choose AudioShare. All of your files are there and can be dragged directly to your computer’s file system.

Good to know, albeit my love/hatred of iTunes :slight_smile:

Does anyone know of a sampler or other app that has a filter envelop for samples. User samples.

And does anyone know of a wavetable style synth where you can load your own samples as waveforms?

I’ve been just getting into Borderlands and I’m wondering about the ins and outs of using audioshare and audiobus. Do I need one? Both?

I use AudioShare a lot. It made the “getting things from one place to the other” much easier. IOS can be maddening when it comes to managing files…

Theres actually a hack to Animoog that allows youto load your own WAVs. Its pretty convoluted though.

But I think Nave allows this…

Beatmaker 3 has filters and plenty of modulation in its sampler engine.

Samplist and Koala both have filters as well

There’s one called Scythe Synth that will do the wavetable stuff, but it’s pretty finicky at times. Should be only a few dollars so might be worth looking in to. Its logo is a blue squiggly line, so don’t get it confused with the other Scythe app.

Yes? Do they have a filter envelope per sample ?

I’m specificaly looking for an app that has a pitch envelope and a filter envelope for samples. Or one of those two.

Thanks for the tips people, I’m looking things up now.

Samplist has both per slice. Koala does not
