Audiobus 3 allows you to…
• … record and input audio and MIDI from other apps.
• … output audio and MIDI from Cubasis into other apps.
• … assign additional effect processor apps to Cubasis and other apps.
There are chances of unreliable behavior, which, if occurring, is not caused by Cubasis but due to potential complex app connections that can be established via Audiobus 3, which may also include other third party technologies such as Inter-App Audio and Audio Unit.
In this regard, issues are most likely to occur in scenarios that include multiple connections of both audio and MIDI input and output apps routed via Audiobus 3.
If you experience problems using Audiobus 3 please contact Audiobus online at Audiobus: Live, app-to-app audio..
To avoid unwanted connection issues or background sounds triggering, please make sure to frequently close all third party instrument and effect apps that are invisible in the iOS task panel.
To do so, open each Cubasis instrument track and check for relevant device appearances in the MIDI routing output sections. Once identified, please launch those apps and close them afterwards to disconnect them from Cubasis.
In short, whenever an issue with Audiobus 3 occurs we suggest taking the following 3 steps in the given order:
- Close all running applications.
- Restart your iPad.
- Launch Audiobus 3 and connect your wanted apps.
Also, to avoid Audiobus 3 connection issues, we recommend tapping an application icon to make it visible after assigning the app in Audiobus 3 as input, effect or output.
