App Midi Control
Disappointing
Upgraded to new iPad
Almost perfect
Love it..very much needed
Magic mixer
bégaiement, incapable de travailler
Must have
No sound
This is a good idea for things that should be built into Aum. It is a good idea generally. I do not find this particular implementation of those ideas to be meeting my needs at this time.
Not Working
Response from developer
This is an add-on program for AUM. You need to have AUM installed as explained on the App Store information page. These templates are then loaded into AUM and MidiMixer is loaded as part of that process.
Great in theory, lacking in execution
1. There’s no way to easily scale or edit drawn automation. If you weren’t exactly on point, you need to redo the entire thing.
2. While there is a snap to beat with the line tool, there is none for the paint tool.
3. The zoom in for the height of the automation window is nowhere near enough. There is a similar problem in the developer’s multitrack app, too.
4. It’s still glitchy. I’ve already had multiple instances where AUM doesn’t respond to faders or the mute state from the mixer. The mixer will show mute as active but AUM won’t read it, then I have to double tap it on the app to try and get it to reset.
I really want to like this app. It’s much easier, in theory, then using something like Xequence (although that’s more flexible) to control automation in AUM. Let’s hope these issues get addressed.
Response from developer
MidiMixer only works one way, as a remote control for AUM. AUM does not report changes of Mute/Solo/Fader etc. to MidiMixer. My guess is that you changed some settings in AUM such as fader / mute and that wasn't reflected in MidiMixer. The idea behind MidiMixer is to record all your automations for your song and have MidiMixer play them back in sync with the host timeline. This way everything remains in sync. If you are simply using it to duplicate the functionality of AUM then you need to remember to make mixing changes in MidiMixer only.
Paul, fantastic work as usual.
Please, I do have one request though.... and it’s a “global” request for all your apps, could you add rotary knob support? I can never dial with precision on 4pocket dials because I hate horizontal and vertical knobs. They feel very unintuitive to me!
I really hope you can consider this as an option for your AUs, it would make them incredibly more friendly to use to the ones that are like me and hate vertical and horizontal knobs.
I do have a few ideas for DigiStix, probably my most used app by you, but I will email them eventually... 😊
Thanks for the wonderful work as usual!
