What is Audiobus? — Audiobus isan award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you useyour other music apps together. Chain effects on your favouritesynth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app likeGarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface outputfor each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive asynth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDIkeyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear.And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

Installing Cubase LE and Wavelab LE for Windows and Mac. The 7.0.80 version of Cubase LE for Mac is available as a free download on our website. The unique ID for this application's bundle is com.steinberg.cubase.se. The following versions: 7.0 and 1.0 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users. ID Issue Solution; CB-3078: In some rare cases, connecting a supported device to unlock the LE feature set fails to work with Cubasis LE on iOS 8. Please restart Cubasis LE and make sure the included demo song properly plays back through the built-in speaker of your iPad. Free download Cubase Cubase for Mac OS X. Cubase does it all: spacious orchestral arrangements, experimental indie pop, floor-filling electronic music or enthralling metal - Cubase offers dedicated tools for all of these musical genres and many. Before GarageBand for iOS was introduced, a DAW on a tablet seemed far-fetched. GB for iOS (and Auria) changed all that, though there's still room for more. So, how does Cubasis for iPad fare? If you are a Cubase fan or iPad user (or both!) then the new Steinberg Cubasis app really is a no brainer.
Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

Cubasis For Mac Windows 10
With the current Cubasis sale, now would be a good time to “upgrade” my DAW from Garageband..
Cubasis For Mac Pro
I do love the workflow of Garageband (even better after the recent update) and the ability to use it on the iPhone too.
I’m just wondering what can be done in Cubasis that I can’t currently do in Garageband?

Any advice much appreciated
Comments
- I also use GarageBand and it bugs me that I can’t make my tracks in any signature other than 3/4 or 4/4. It gets annoying to record in odd signatures. However I saw a comment stating you can’t do any signature you want in Cubasis so that’s why I’m holding on that. Does anyone know if you can make 9/8 or 11/8 or any other odd signature projects in Cubasis or can change the time signature within a project?
- To myself, the biggest difference is the layout and automations in Cubasis - everything seems so much simpler and to hand. That’s just personal though - GarageBand has never clicked with me
- I could unlock my Cubase LE because I have a Yamaha mg16xu mixer, so I did just that...now I can do an iap for the full feature set for only €16,99, which is a good deal of course but already owning GB, BM 3 , Modstep and AUM so I’m trying to justify me buying this iap. Afraid I will regret it if I don’t...

You can't change time signatures or tempo in a project. Auria pro is able to do that but to be honest you're probably better off using a DAW on a computer if you want to be able to play with time. - Thanks guys.I’ve seen talk about “freezing” tracks in Cubasis, is this the same as ‘merge’ in GB?It also looks like midi editing might be a bit easier Cubasis.?

I think only Auria Pro has these kind of odd signatures, grids etc., plus tempo changes if you’re into progressive music. But Auria Pro has a learning curve, more like ProTools and Logic than Garageband or Cubasis.Freezing tracks is more or less like merging, yes. I don’t like the fact Garageband duplicates the project every time you merge a song. - edited November 2017To me the big difference in these two apps is how open they are. Garageband is a closed wall environment IMO - the only way to get stems out is to mute tracks and export them one by one. I love Garageband's interface though, so this limitation of not being able further manipulate what you produce in GB is frustrating. Getting MIDI and audio in and out of Cubasis is a breeze.
- edited November 2017MultiTrackStudio also has a tempo and time signature editor, (type in whatever you want) and is able to change either one mid-song. Cubasis does time signature in 4ths only 1/4-7/4

Getting MIDI and audio in and out of Cubasis is a breeze.Well, I was a PC user. Now that I switched to Mac, I can continue the project in GB or Logic on the Mac. And all the sounds are there - Cubasis will do 2/4 through 7/4 (previous version; I have not yet looked at the update.)

For me, GB has lots of cool sounds and the Live Loops workflow going for it, but I never felt comfortable trying to build stuff in the piano roll midi editor. I much prefer to do regular linear style tracks in Cubasis. Also as noted previously, GB is a pain to try to get it to work with other apps. Not impossible, but a drag compared to Cubasis.
The freeze in Cubasis bakes all the Midi and effects on a Midi track to an Audio track, like a pre-render. It saves on a lot of processing.
Cubasis is on sale right now, GB is FREE (and you already have it I see). I recommend both if you have the space for them. - @CracklePot said:

I guess I use GB as the “final destination” in the workflow, instead of trying to get GB instruments out (which would be great) to avoid frustration. AUs have made things a lot easier.
To be honest I don’t see myself making much use of piano roll note entering as it’s not as fun for me.
One thing I would like to know is if AUM only really works with Cubasis (I’ve seen Doug do it), or is there any way this could work with GB? I love being able to layer synths and fx in AUM for live playing but would ideally like to record directly onto a track in GB instead of using AudioShare as the go between.. I’ve tried Audiobus 2 with AUM as ‘in slot’ and GB as out.. it just crashes in audiobus - @Keenan Yes it works! AUM can be hosted as an IAA source inside of GB. I just tested it and it seems to work great.
- @CracklePot said:
@Keenan Yes it works! AUM can be hosted as an IAA source inside of GB. I just tested it and it seems to work great.Wow I was totally over complicating that, thanks so much!! - When I need to get something out from GarageBand I just sequence it in GB, export the stuff as Audio and leave the session in GB in case I need to do some adjustments
(In practice GB is a 'content creator' for Cubasis). - @Keenan said:@CracklePot said:

I think GB will only input one thing at a time, and if this is the case, premixing in AUM is the way to go. - @Samu said:

As far as 24 bit goes- probably not necessary for just fiddling about, but I would definitely use it if I was doing something I cared about and quality was a major factor. - edited November 2017@CracklePot said:@Keenan said:@Samu said:

As far as 24 bit goes- probably not necessary for just fiddling about, but I would definitely use it if I was doing something I cared about and quality was a major factor.GarageBand can work in 24-bit if enabled in it's settings.So yeah, the flow is, GB -> AudioShare -> Cubasis
(If Cubasis had Files.app support you could skip the step with AudioShare, and actually you can if you use 'Open In..' from GarageBand).Actually any 'Document Manager' that is visible to the Files.app will do, it does't have to be AudioShare.If one needs to download files from the Internet or Networked resources (NAS etc.) I recommend Documents by Readle (it works in perfect harmony with the Files.app). The cool thing with Documents is that once you've set up your networked resources they are accessible from the standard Document Picker.. (Say hello to direct import of files from your computers hard-drive). - @Samu said:@CracklePot said:https://cleverbank602.weebly.com/dj-apps-for-mac.html. Not to brag but I got super good at it and would dedicate hours to finding the best cues to mix every song together.Anyways I took a break and came back just today to see that the option to play Soundcloud audio is now exclusive to its paying members. That was where all of my hundreds of songs were stored but now they are all locked since I am not a Soundcloud Go member or whatever it is. I’ve always enjoyed mixing EDM music and making sets like I was playing a festival. Designed in partnership with pro DJs, edjing Mix transforms your iPhone or iPad into a real DJ setup and stretches the limits of djing on mobile, offering unlimited creative freedom.Access millions of tracks coming from Deezer, SoundCloud, iTunes and your Cloud sources, and remix in an instant with more than 20 DJ fx and features. Gdhdf, oh noooo not soundcloud whyyyyyI’ve given this a 4 star rating considering the amount of fun this app has given me throughout the years I’ve owned it.@Keenan said:@Samu said:

GB,s “Final Destination”. Doesn’t have to be there ,with the use of Mastering apps ie, Final Touch,etc.can add some super touches to the finished artical. I also noticed after recording throug AudioBus the apps I’ve used appear in recorded track icon in GB,very helpful
- You guys have been super helpful, thanks again!I’ll have to pick your brains again soon I’m sure, but I’ll leave that for another day.Hopefully I can return the favor.. anyone interested in some random Zeeon presets?

I seem to recall others sharing stuff by way of Dropbox. - I tried to use GB to put down a sketch of an idea of a song that was knocking in my head lately. There was too much latency on the Guitar that I plugged in so I ended up using Cubasis and did whatever I wanted quite quickly.So the answer is Cubasis. You don’t even need to get any iAPs as you could use external plug ins and export the mixdown to Audio Mastering or Final Cut for Mastering.
