What’s New
Version 6.8.5
* Many actions can now be done during playback, most of them without a pause, some with a short pause.
* Changed the colors of the piano roll and drum pattern editor into a dark mode.
* Added a 'Multi-instrument' option when creating a drum pattern track: in this mode, you can assign an audio file or a sound from a Soundfont to a drum 'lane'. This makes it possible to use your own sounds in the drum pattern editor. Each drum lane now also features its own audio processing chain, meaning that it has its own effects grid, volume, panning, ADSR, pitch shift and basic reverb controls. You can use the iOS drap & drop mechanism to import drum sounds as well (max. file size 4MB).
* A free drum sound pack consisting of 80 high quality drum samples for use with the multi-instrument drum pattern editor can be downloaded. It features a wide range of kicks, snares, hihats, toms, etc. sorted by different genres: 80's Retrowave, Acoustic, EDM, Foley, Hip Hop, Industrial and Reggaeton.
* Optional in-app purchase to extend the free drum sound pack with 420 more high quality drum samples.
* Added multi-output support for AUv3 instruments. Additional outputs can be sent to mix busses.
* New Settings screen to match the app's style.
* Multiple mixer controls can now be adjusted simultaneously.
* Added an 'Import Soundfont' option to the instrument selection dialog (although Soundfonts can always be copied directly using the Files app to the AudioEvolution/SoundFonts folder).
* Added a 'Share' option to the file pop-up menu in the file browser.
* Added an option 'Draw grid on top of clips' which now defaults to 'off'.
* Changes to tempo markers can now be undo/redone.
* The audio input dialog now makes it possible to select between different inputs of the device itself, so you can for example select the iPad microphone even if a headset is connected.
* The state of the AU button in the instrument display is now remembered and stored with the project.
* When editing notes outside the current clip area, the clip will now be automatically expanded.
* Added a Quantize option to the pop-up menu of selected notes in the piano roll editor.
* Added a 'Select all' button to the piano roll editor in Edit mode.
* The mixer can now be scrolled when dragging in the volume slider area.
* The available memory is now displayed in the instrument selection dialog. The app will now refuse to load Soundfonts when the available memory is lower than 250MB to prevent out-of-memory crashes.
* Added an 'Auto split' option to the audio clip pop-up menu.
* Added an option 'MIDI loop recording'.
* Added an option to test the new plug-in delay compensation that works for both audio and instrument tracks (non-armed) to the BETA section of the new settings dialog.
* The size of the AU MIDI view is now remembered and stored in the project (half/full size) and the option 'Open AU in full screen' has been removed from the Settings.
* Portuguese translation
* Solved a crash that could occur when MIDI was received while adding or removing a track.
* Replacing an effect with the display active of the target effect block could cause a crash. Solved.
* A split point could be erroneously added when moving your finger beyond the display edge. Solved.
* Long-tapping a position on the arranger screen and selecting Paste could paste at the wrong location. Solved.
* MIDI parameter control settings for Evolution One were not set when loading a project. Solved.
* Solved a timing issue for MIDI events being recorded from a AU MIDI processor.
* Marquee selection in the piano roll did not handle scrolling correctly. Solved.
* Selected events in the piano roll could be moved to a negative offset. Solved.
* When a MIDI device transmitted Active Sensing events, this could lead to other MIDI events not being parsed correctly, which could result in hanging notes etc.
and more..
Ratings and Reviews
First feedback.
Good DAW.
A couple of things that are counter productive.
1. Need ability to adjust individual note volumes within a chord/drum hits, etc, that happen simultaneously.
2. Need a Channel EQ bypass button.
3. Sliders for Volume, EQ settings, etc need to indicate their value before being touched, so I know what adjustment I’m making, not just the value I’m going to.
Full disclosure: used for 2 mins - it does AUv3.
Buried in the massive list of features in the description, is the fact this is able to use Audio Units, which maybe is a big enough thing to put right up top, or in the descriptive bit. It’s a great thing, I just didn’t realise, and bought to see what the fuss was about! So, in my two minutes, I used Bismarck 16i and it’s Grand Piano, and stuck a ‘softening’ effect as the first of the blocks in the FX chain…well, that worked, the Grand lost it’s sharp edge.
It’s got a coppery look, and there is an auto-save feature you choose the time interval for, in ‘settings’. There’s a whole load of iap’s but no ‘bumper/motherload’ purchase option? Won’t apply to me, I have a lot of TB stuff already, and some AUv3 synths (cough, a few, darling, just a few), so can get on from the stock I have.
This is pretty interesting. I mean, for me, if somebody cloned GarageBand and fixed it’s shortcomings, I’d be in. I gave it 5 stars because to knock anything off requires deep enough knowledge to be fairly sure, and I don’t have that. It certainly seems to allow a deal more FX than GB usually gives me. How that works in practice, remains to be seen. So far, so good. Well done. Did I mention it accepts Audio Units?!
Getting better
So to start with the main app. It’s definitely improving. Still glitchy. Still quirky. Still full of promise and potential and still being supported and improved by the dev. I’d like to be able to say it’s better than Cubasis or Auria, or Multitrack Daw, or even Garageband but I don’t think that’s going to happen just yet. But full marks for the continuous improvement.
Now to the new Vocal Tune Studio addition. Very very impressed. By far the best pitch tweaker on iOS but, as with the main app, just needs that bit more refinement. I know it’s early days and this is a fabulous achievement. But how about moving the concert pitch, joining notes, slope etc. Yes greedy requests but there we are.
If I could wish for one thing from the dev it would be release Vocal Tune Studio as an AU plugin version. I know that may stick in the devs craw but he has an open goal at the moment. I’d pay the price of the in app purchase for it. There’s nothing else like it in iOS. Yet!
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your feedback! If you haven't done so by other means already, please contact support@audio-evolution.com to tell us the exact issues you are having with the app when you say glitchy and quirky. In next version, a reference (concert) pitch can be set in Vocal Tune Studio.
