Best 1.99 Midi Utility

It's so good, use it all the time and it's a monster of a utility. Besides Mosaic- this is the best midi looper/duplicater. utility ever on iOS. IT HAS DRAG AND DROP MIDI FILES ( perfect to drag into Helium, or your favorite piano roll)

Crashes on iPad Air 11"

I have an iPad Air 11" M2 with iPadOS 26.1. The app crashes with SIGABRT when opened stand-alone, or with SIGSEGV when opened as AUv3 in AUM. The crashes are almost instantaneous. This may relate to the different screen size of this iPad. It makes the app totally unusable. It works fine on my iPad 6 with the traditional 9.7" screen and iPadOS 17.

Edit: I have just learned that there is a testflight version 1.0.3 which does work in current OS. This has been available at least since May 2025, but has not yet been released. Unfortunate.

Great app but plugin version crashes in iOS 18

I would give this five stars if the plugin would work on iOS 18.4.1. Currently it crashes on my iPad 9 when I try to load it into AUM or LoopyPro. I see others reporting similar problems in the LoopyPro forum.

AUv3 Broken

Hasn’t been loading in any host (Audiobus 3, AUM, etc.) the past few months.

drag and drop

what are the apps that I can drop midi into? Saw the one on the demo which works and tried one other which did not work. Manual does not say what the requirements are. What are they?
