Using iPad for Live Performance (Ambient/Drone Music) 

Agreed

Cheers! Glad you found it inspiring. Thanks for the kind words.

Thank you so much. More to come!

I totally agree! Baffling as to why it isn’t more common. I love working that way.

Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

@@andrewtasselmyer2436 There are only very few videos here on RU-vid, that provide such constructive and systematic insights about how to set up and organize AUM for live performances. AUM in this regard is unique, as it allows for very individual solutions, since it is more of an open platform, rather than being ruled by paradigms that DAWS predominantly push users in. Also connecting two iOS devices (or an iOS device plus a macOS device) via a device such as the iConnect, opens up new possibilities, or can extend the workflow. There are quite a few similarities between your approach and how I work, yet, it is always good to take a closer look at how other artists operate and organize their performance and production environments, for some tips, new inspirations, and ideas. It is utterly valuable what you are doing here!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching! Totally agree on Samplr; still my favorite app 10 years later. Noted on Grand Finale - haven’t noticed a delay yet but will keep that in mind. I do love loopy pro. Those shortcuts you mention are great - thanks. I use it all the time in the studio, and have played live with it a few times, but AUM is still easier on my brain and perfect for how I perform.

Many thanks!

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching and for the kind words.

truly so helpful! instantly subscribed to your channel and i'm looking forward to more videos as well as checking out your substack where you cover this in even more depth. also, any chance of sharing that dreamy Twin 3 patch you were using? @@andrewtasselmyer2436

My pleasure! Glad it was helpful.

Thanks for watching!

Glad it was helpful!

My pleasure!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Hey, thanks!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.

Yeah, I just don’t have that kind of money laying around, ha. Too many other extremely capable options at much lower price points.

Thank you! There’s a post on my substack page that walks through it in detail - check the link in the description for the full rundown.

Hey there, I have a 2021 iPad Pro 11" with 128 GB storage and 8 GB RAM. it's more than enough for my music work.

1) you can use Bluetooth to send MIDI from the iPhone wirelessly. For this specific live set I was not using a laptop and just sent midi over usb, with both phone and iPad connected to the audio 4c 2) loopy pro is the app I’m using and it’ll do everything you described. You can create as many pages of custom mapped midi controls as you want.

Nope, I generally just keep it to one session for all songs. I switch between sets in Samplr for each one, though.

Thanks for watching! That’s the iConnectivity audio 4c interface.

My pleasure! Thanks for watching.

Hey there, I generally use USB to minimize latency as much as possible. But I’ll use Bluetooth occasionally when traveling or when sketching ideas on my iPhone.

Thanks!

I’m using an iPad Pro 11” from 2021, with the M1 chip. It works great for me.

That would be something!

Midiguitar 2 does a great job of audio signal to midi for mono/poly I think up to 4 voices. I've used it a few times and love it, Im mainly a guitar player!

Thank you! Cheers!

It’s daunting at first but quickly makes sense when you play around with it. It’s basically a mixer with the ability to add effects on each channel.

I mostly do USB connections for performances because of lower latency, but I use Bluetooth in a pinch or while sketching ideas while traveling.

Thanks @@andrewtasselmyer2436 , that's really helpful, and makes total sense.

Hey, great demo/showcase. Just wondering, do you lug around a spare iPad and interface? Seems like it’s a pretty crucial part of your sound, and personally I’d be a wreck if I did not have backup! 😅

Thank you! Yes, in hindsight I would’ve done that. Thanks for watching.

Yes. Not a huge fan, but it’s interesting.

Thanks! It's called "Tortured Shapes." hotelneon.bandcamp.com/album/tortured-shapes
