Baby Audio knocks it out of the park!

Over the years Baby Audio has really impressed me. I’m switching my DAW to Logic on the iPad for a year and I'm so glad they are making their plugins for this platform. I’m a little annoyed I have to repurchase them but over time I’ll have all my favourite Baby Audio plugins again. Big thanks to you Baby Audio for supporting this new amazing iPad platform!

A scam?

I buy this app expecting to be able to use it in Cubasis 3 for iOS as an AUv3 effect. I cannot find it in the tab despite having bought it and having it on my device. What is this? Did I just buy something I cannot use?

Multi-FX always welcome in iOS/iPadOS.

I gave it five stars, I’ve watched many reviews and have only used it for a short time, and I have a list of two things to make it AWESOME for my use in music creation, primarily in GarageBand iPadOS: One, can that main single dial be somehow mapped or the user able to map it, so that the results are ‘automated’? Automation is the thing I look for now, there are great synths galore but GB doesn’t acknowledge changes made using controls other than the pitch wheel and the mod wheel. My simplistic view is, if ‘Transit’ could make GarageBand believe for example that the movement of that one large control was the mod wheel being adjusted, it maybe would record changes as automation?

I don’t know how Audio Units work in something as neutered as GB iOS is the trouble, maybe even if this were done, GB won’t take such an adjustment from an Effect as opposed to an instrument? Over to you Baby Audio, too technical for me. The ONLY way to get this to happen at the moment, with GB anyway on my iPad Pro M1, is to use IAA for example, because it records an audio wave, and obviously results are ‘baked in’ to the resulting waveform - but of course you lose all the benefits of editability that a MIDI track has.

Two, an easy one, I just echo what another user said, could it be possible to drop in more than one instance of a component effect, into the series of FX that can ‘populate’ Transit? I’d use this to do 2 simple delays in series, as that’s something quite rare on Appstore, but obviously the sky’s the limit then, resources allowing. There’s a big iOS multi-FX that does allow this, but tbf I’ve done it once out of 200 songs. On the other hand, my little app giving double-delay in series, has dropped from the Appstore, so Transit would be a compact way to replace it. So, if we count that, there are actually about 15% of my work could use Transit to replace that function alone.

None of the above detract from it being an excellent multi-effects unit, it’s just that the ‘transit’ part is not really available on my mainstay, Apple’s baby DAW. But, this is a limitation all other Audio Units seem to come with on GB too, so this is 5-star anyway. A few shortcomings across the board are what I tolerate, because I find GB is the one DAW (on iOS/iPadOS) where I don’t get sidelined frequently or stumble, with technical complexity. Therefore, nothing above is a gripe, merely feedback. Transit’s a great piece of kit.

Requests

Please introduce multiple uses of the effects so we could for instance just have a rack full of reverbs or any of the effects also allow automation of division and bars global and individual randoms💪👂

Baby Audio and Andrew Huang are some of my favorites

I love this app so far… I seen it drop for desktop and just prayed it would come to iOS. Thanks for making that happen. Am I trippin or am I not able to save presets for this?

UPDATE: It’s been a few months and we’re still not able to save presets in app .. they said they’re working on it on their Facebook page but still no updates 😔

Cubasis 3 automation glitch

Hi 👋👋 would love to love this app because the effects really do sound great. But writing “W” automations with the big T knob (which I imagine is the main use case for this plugin) is broken in cubasis 3.6. Fix that and you may have a five star app. Thought it might be a cubasis error but the automations I wrote for other plugins are being played properly when “R” is on. Edit: further testing reveals this glitch is only on the master channel. When the plugin is on individual tracks and groups, the automations record properly. This is less than ideal and makes the plugin much more clunky to use.

This is broken on iOS 12.2 and iOS 13.3

Crashes when loading in AUM or Cubasis.

Reinstalling did nothing. Rebooting did nothing.

Still not fixed after 2 months.

I am disappointed in this company.

It claims to be compatible with ios12 and is not and they won’t return my money.

WoW WoW

Is very very good product tanks

An all-in-one worth consideration, with a couple caveats

I know there are a lot of all-in-one effects tools out there like transit, but the one that comes to mind (even though it’s actually very different) is turnado by sugar bytes. Transit is very much like a simpler turnado, not a bad thing it’s actually sometimes a bit liberating to use apps that have fewer constraints. Fewer hoops to jump through saves time and focus. It does a few things that I’ve actually always wanted from to Turnado, most notably runs on iPhone. That being said I would make one request. All of the sections have a magnifying glass function except for the ‘transition control’. I am completely unable to use the ‘transition control’ section on an iPhone unless I take a screenshot and zoom in on the screenshot. It’s mainly because I cannot see the bars and divisions at all. However I would love for other developers to take note of this app (I’m looking at 4pockets, audiomodern and gsdsp mainly) and how you can zoom in on sections to make individual parts more visible particularly on iPhone. Toneboosters do a great job with this too, when you click a section to manually enter a number, toneboosters apps zoom into that section making it extremely usable on iPhone. So I have to say great job to Baby Audio with the magnifying glass tools, just please add the magnification tool to the ‘transition control’ section. An pro-effects tool worth consideration, I look forward to seeing more apps like this one. And one last thing I just noticed, I cannot save presets. Before this detail I would have said Transit is well polished and rock solid, but it’s kind of a big deal not being able to save presets.
