Can you confirm if ADAT I/O works on iOS?
anybody know what happened to bolasol and werkbench?
Karl if youāre out there, where you at?
adat works fine. the minidspās just show up as an 8in / 8 out interface.
as long as the interface is class compliant, like my 828 ESās saw all 16 channels of ADAT over usb
its just that class compliant on the ipad is limited to 24in/24out, so you need to route accordingly.
(so for exampleā¦youāll only be able to route 24 of the 32 channels of ADAT on the LP32 to the ipad connected via the USB port)

This is not the case for Quantum HD 2, only analog I/O on iOS, so Iām reluctant to take it for granted on other interfaces.
Ahh this is new to me. 16 I/O is enough for my purpose, but itās good to know the limits. Thanks!!
well i can tell you the motus work, but you have to route the adat to the usb port internally in the sound card

Not an iPad music app, but a version of the amazing iPad app Fugue Machine in Max for Live. Itās called Fugue ML

Imaginando is doing 10 days of 24 hour sales starting today. The first one is the K7D Tape Delay for $0.99. The deals are also on desktop apps but obviously higher priced.

OK so Iām treading old-trodden ground here but Iām thinking of upgrading my 9th gen iPad for a larger iPad Pro (11 inch) specifically for music stuff as I want to breach the Apple silicon barrier and go M.
The decision I need to make: is it better to go for a 3rd gen pro (M1 processor) and 256gb storage or I could go for a 4th gen pro (M2) with 128gb storage for roughly the same price. There doesnāt seem much difference in the rest of the spec between the two. Is the M2 that much better or is the extra storage more useful?
+1 for extra storage. M1 will probably have the same longevity than M2, and the spec up is not meaningful enough (you wonāt hit M1 limits). Double the storage itās a very meaningful upgrade.

Definitely more storage. The difference between M1 and M2 for the iPad is negligible. They barely do more than my A17X iPad Pro, and 128 GB isnāt enough these days.

Either M1 or go all in for the M4 with the new screen coating. (Totally not me selling a majority of the Eurorack as compensation)
Easy. A bunch of Moog plugins, a meaningful mastering chain and the MAT 16x8 with 96khz and 32 samples buffer

I have a 256gb model. I donāt do much on it other than music appsā¦
I have 479 apps installed, Iād say about 350-400+ are music and related apps. I offload recordings and store samples on an SD card as a makeshift hard drive and to transfer files to my computer or MPC etc.
Logic is 9gb with lots or all the stuff installed. Other big music apps are 2gb, 1gb.
I donāt do as suggested above with maxing out 82 plugins and complicated miles long mastering chains. I have a DAW if things get that serious. I do a lot of sound exploration and design, sampling, midi and fun stuff on my tablet.
So, if the iPad is actually the single device you make music on, Iād say the M2 and 512gb, but you know money and bills and all.
My most used iPad for music (I have several) is non-M, and 64gb.

Iāve topped out Logic on an M2.
No need for another DAW when thereās Loopy Pro. No time to nudge automation keyframes when a crowd is waiting on the floor 
8 years ago I started with the iPad as a toy. I never thought it would become the centerpiece of my music.

Sounds cool! I donāt do crowds, and certainly Loopy Pro may not be right for everyone. I personally love it.
And youāve only been doing iOS apps for music for just 8 years? Newer userās like yourself have been great additions, really has pushed more app companies and makers to develop for the platform.
Hopefully Apple and the app makers and users like yourself can figure out how to really push the new hardware.
You changed the cable, right? Had fiddle around with the connections. In my experience it has always been something external and not related to the device. When it was the device it was due to fault. In this case it may be because there is something wrong with the part that the audio cable goes into. Perhaps a solder joint has broken? Anyway, good luck!
