1. Audio Routing App Mac

Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

You get everything from MIDI monitoring, virtual routing, MIDI keys and more and more. My personal favourite is the messeges converter. Now I can twiddle the knobs on my POD and tweak parameters in my Roland JV-1010. No need to get a specialized MIDI controller hardware! There are a few more things make this application so awesome: 1. Compared to other MIDI over LAN or IP-MIDI solutions, this driver is based on an open standard. As the driver has been designed to be compatible to the network-MIDI included in every Mac since OS X 10.4 and every iPhone/iPad since iOS 4.2, you can also connect to Macs or iPhone / iPad apps that have been designed to use the Core-MIDI framework. Newbie ipad + MacBook audio midi routing questions I’m a beginner trying to figure out the most optimal way to route my hardware together. The basic idea is to have external midi controllers control external synths on iPad and sending audio back to a MacBook and out through an audio interface. Feb 23, 2017  You can use your Mac as the hub / interface of your MIDI synth setup without opening up your DAW. MIDIrouter is a free app that makes it simple to quickly set the MIDI In and Out ports. It's wonderful having access to the millions of functions most modern DAWs like Logic Pro, Cubase, Pro Tools and Ableton Live provide.

Hi,

Question:
I'm wondering if this is possible in Audiobus, and if it is, what is it called? I'd like to route audio from my iOS apps over USB - and out the audio interface on my Mac.

Notes:
I'm using my iPad for drums: DrumPerfect Pro + Lumbeat Drum apps.

Follow up:
If it's not possible with Audiobus, do you know if this is possible with AUM or MainStage?

• You can do that, it's called IDAM.

  Connect your iPad to your Mac with the USB to Lightning Cable.

  On your Mac, open the Audio/Midi Setup app and click Enable on the left hand side for your iPad.

  If you want to use your audio interface on your Mac as well, you need to create an 'aggregate device'. Then set up the audio ins/outs in your DAW on your Mac to get audio through your Macs interface.

  On Logic for example, you would add an audio track with your iPad as the source and route it through the audio outputs by enabling the 'I' Button in the channel.

  IDAM also transmits and receives MIDI so you can use apps on your iPAD as external sound sources for your Mac and record them into your Mac DAW as MIDI and/or audio.

  There are plenty of guides online that will explain this better than me, but it's fairly easy to get audio from an iPad into a Mac. Best disk utility for mac.

Audio MIDI Setup User Guide

Use Audio MIDI Setup to set up audio input and output devices, such as microphones and multichannel audio interfaces. You can also use it to route audio from iOS and iPadOS devices directly into your Mac.

Available settings in Audio MIDI Setup depend on the audio device you’re using. For example, you can adjust the volume for each channel your audio output device has available.

1. Connect your audio devices to your Mac and, if necessary, install any software included with the devices.

2. In the Audio MIDI Setup app on your Mac, in the sidebar of the Audio Devices window, select a device.

   Note: For iOS and iPadOS devices, first click Enable, then select the device. You may be asked to unlock your device with a passcode or to trust the device.

3. Control-click the device, or click the Action pop-up menu at the bottom of the sidebar, then choose how the device is going to be used:

   • For sound input: Choose “Use This Device for Sound Input.”

   • For sound output: Choose “Use This Device for Sound Output.”

   • For playing system sounds: Choose “Play Alerts and Sound Effects Through This Device.”

4. On the right side of the Audio Devices window, choose the options available for the device you selected:

   • In most cases, “Clock source” is set to the default.

   • Click the Format pop-up menu, then set the sample rate and bit depth. Make sure they match the appropriate settings for your audio device.

   • If your Mac supports the hardware sample rate converter, the Hardware Rate Converter pop-up menu is available in the Input pane. When you choose Automatic from the pop-up menu, the hardware sample rate converter is turned on if the audio samples coming in are PCM and formatted according to the international standard IEC 60958-3. The hardware sample rate converter is turned off if the input stream is encoded. You can also choose Enable or Disable from the menu, to keep the hardware sample rate converter turned on or off.

   • If software volume control is available for your device, the Volume sliders appear blue to indicate that they’re active. Drag the sliders to set the volume for each channel.

   • To set up a surround (multichannel) speaker configuration, click Configure Speakers, then set up the configuration.
