Awesome!! Glad to help you find this workflow!

Got this app last year January I think never used it till now. It’s quite powerful

A few years back, I became convinced that using my iPad was the direction I wanted to go for everything, and I was still using Windows on a laptop at the time, mostly for work (CAD, and later, IT-related work I was doing for Microsoft, at the time). Since then, continuing with my love of tablets, I have a Chuwi Ubook tablet running Windows 11 (with my old favorite, Acoustica Mixcraft for music production), and a 7th gen iPad on which I use a number of apps, including Garageband, Cubasis 2, Audio Modeling's SWAM instruments, etc, and, oh yes, AUM, which I'm just beginning to use. I don't have Ableton and have never used it, and, until I saw your video,I had never heard of LK. But, I'm intrigued with the idea of trying it out and, to unlock it completely, $41 + is not a bad price, these days. Only yesterday, I encountered this idea of using AUM as a DAW, which I'm not entirely convinced of yet, but it's starting to make sense. Heck, at some point, I might even get Ableton, to run on the Chuwi Ubook. Where the Chuwi is concerned, I'm planning to get a 20" monitor, connected to the Chuwi via HDMI, which, as clunky and cumbersome as it sounds, is still much cheaper than investing in yet another Windows laptop or desktop, which would take me right back to where I was years ago, and I don't want to go there.

Just came across your vid by chance. Good stuff man! Thanks for it. Super great explanation of how to use LK. Appreciate it.

I actually came here via imaginando’s prompt on their video, this was an insert video at the end of their MIDI control vid. On ipad, I struggled for over a year, not short of anything but tech capability on a PC. What was partly the issue was that I refused to ‘give over’ my PC fully to music production. In other words, it seemed that by the time I had installed and routed everything correctly for Cubase 9 to work, my PC no longer worked as it did before, for normal use, which I need it to. The other aspect, related to this, is the surprising lack of youtube content explaining in detail, how to get a music production PC up and running, pragmatically. After a year, and the only thing I had to show was one lousy bass guitar recording, I gave up, and in desperation, went rooting around the much-derided alternative of GarageBand on an iPad. ‘Toy’ was one word used I heard. But I pressed on, I wanted my problems to be music problems not technical ones. And the iPad has in fact about 85% delivered on that aim. I think the epiphany was discovering that iOS plug-ins were of quite a high quality - some of them - and this has blossomed over the three years I have been on the platform. It was possible to record entirely ‘in the box’, then Apple kicked it out of the park, by making ‘drummer’ choices, not just giving a set of drums or even patterns, but enabling a baseline drum pattern and editing/fine-tuning thereafter. I have to credit therefore, Pete Johns with providing the utterly ludicrously basic guidance I needed, to get my tracks to the point they could be released. I then used the only guy’s advice on ‘aggregators’ I could find online, and went with CDBaby. I have my reasons, and it is nothing to do with them being cheapest (the absolute best value aggregator, had some difficult things they did to their users/artists). Pete was just starting out really on the toob, but he had enough vids on iOS iPad GarageBand that I knew I would get there. He went on to release an album recently. I wouldn’t dream of mastering anywhere but the iPad. I used a mouse recently when Apple made that facility available and that was WEIRD. I just like and prefer touchscreen. I have to recommend - your vids obviously - but also imaginando the developer’s vids, because they really do proper detailed, pragmatic sound design, using their own frankly brilliant DRC synth. I have not purchased it yet - because I purchased Moog’s recently and it’s made a dent in the wallet - but theirs is sufficiently different, and they pull you through HOW to do sound design IN THAT SYNTH, which I appreciate. So, a purchase is imminent. Take care, keep well, thanks for the vid.

So coooooooool, thanks for sharing this 🙂

I’m trying to integrate sounds from my iPad instruments into a Mac Ableton workflow, do you have any tips for that? Other than connecting a usb interface each and running the outs of the iPad into the ins of the Mac?

Great video Dylan. I’ve been through a similar journey with these devices. I’ve owned Ableton from its release but never really finished any tracks with it. Always found a mouse and keyboard not very inspiring. I originally had a mpc 1000xl and a Roland keyboard and made a load of songs but found the sequencer difficult on a tiny screen. The iPad has renewed my passion for music making but it’s still frustrating as I can’t find the do it all daw. I love the simplicity of AUM and I’ve just download LK which is brilliant. It even works with my Novation Launchpad X straight out the box which means I can trigger the clips just like in the launchpad iOS app. I’m also into beatmaker 3 which again is a great daw but has its problems and I’m not sure I like the sequencer. The AUM and LK workflow coupled with the Launchpad hardware is quite a good set up and AUM has a great sound to it. Pity I can’t trigger the file player within LK but maybe I can - just can’t see a way of doing it. I suppose I could jamm within AUM, then record each channel as a file which could be loaded into cubasis to finish the track in a more conventional way. I was also interested in your comments about MPC live - what didn’t you like? I was tempted myself especially with the newer retro colours and built in monitor speakers . I still the think the iPad has better potential and unlike the mpc live it can be renewed with apps and doesn’t go out of date. The mpc live has also loads of ports that I just wouldn’t use. I’d prefer a stripped back version and maybe use the iPad as an audio source for synths etc. Your more recent video sums it up - logic for iPad. Plus I’d like to see both reason and Ableton bring something meaningful to iPad. For me it’s all about the right DAW now for iPad. The money I’ve spent on unused apps and synths (far too many) plus the iPad. I probably could have bought a MacBook and logic and maybe serum or an mpc live and a decent hardware synth. These £15 apps all add up. Especially when they don’t have all the features of their desktop equivalents.

Of course, even if you're not interested in Ableton, there is a myriad of iPadOS compatible DAWs you can substitute seamlessly with the iPad, and using AUM can still be a part of that. I've been following Doug Woods' videos (The Soundtest Room) and he's very much into using AUM with everything. So.....

AUM is definitely less error prone and has amazing routing. LK reminds of me of Modstep, really powerful but not intuitive at all IMO. LK controlling multitrack (4pockets) would be interesting, don’t know if it’s possible, to cover the whole spectrum of sequencing midi + audio in AUM.

Isn't it exciting how many possibilities there are with iPads and apps. I have suggestions for you to explore. There is no right or wrong. There is just various options for fun. Try running Korg Gadget outside or inside of AUM. Then load some synths In AUM. I recommend Magellan 2, Kauldron, Synthmaster One, and Drum Computer by sugar bytes. Use Gadget as your midi sequencer with instances of the Taipei gadget sending midi out to the synths. You can also use as many instances of gadgets as you need. The sequencer capabilities of Taipei are great. You can assign CC's to knobs in Taipei. The gadgets in general are incredible. I see the excitement in you. Just have fun, because there is a lot of it. Don't rule out things because if you are at all like me you will say this very often: "WOW, I didn't know you can do that! I have to try it." One thing to try is the multi-out ability of several apps. An example is that with Drum Computer, you can send each drum to a different lane in AUM so they can use different audio unit effects on each drum. It's insanely versatile....and, above all....it's fun.

Great video thanks. I’m an ableton Live user on my MacBook Pro but want to transition to IPad Pro. I’m a sample based producer. Is there a way to load audio clips say from .wav files so you can chop/loop/warp samples? Is this possible?

Hi James! I'd recommend using BeatMaker 3 for this! It's a really good analogue for Ableton as far as loading samples and using plugins.

Segments is an excellent for sample based production also in AUM. I love using AUM with the mpclive as well. I have similar background with Ableton and Ipad production. Great video and tips!

So, can you run ableton on ipad independently or you still need ableton link with pc?

Ableton is not yet on iPad sadly, the workflow here uses LK and AUM to replicate the experience of ableton

No problem :) hopefully real ableton comes to iPad as well someday

I have a couple of musician friends who want to be able to record and produce (to a limited extent) themselves, when they ask what setup to get, I tell them an iPad plus an audio interface. Its the way to go. I think laptops are a minority use-case for portable computing.

@@DylanParisMusic totally. There's less administrative grief as well. You don't have to worry about viruses or malware anywhere near as much. It's just a smoother experience. Plus, stuff is generally cheaper. Even though music apps have basically doubled in price from a few years ago, they are still a fraction of the price of their desktop counterparts when they exist. I'm a bit of an experimenter. I have licenses to about 6 different DAWs for my desktop but I can see that the iPad is really the future for musicians creating whilst the desktop is still for the audio engineers.

I mostly agree. We just need better stability on iPad music apps, and the big PC plugin manufacturers (looking at you Native Instruments and Arturia) to really commit to iPad.

Have you messed around with live loops much in GB? I've been getting into that workflow, similar to LK and AUM

If they only added automation that would be a game changer

@@DylanParisMusic very cool indeed! You can use it to do midi sequencing like you explain here, but it can also do stuff like conditional trigs, where you can make a simple sequenced pattern change and evolve over time. It's also got good sampler, modular style synth and effects to play with. It's got scenes like on an Octatrack and it plays really nicely with AUM too. Very highly recommended :)

About recording a sequence with a keyboard, you say at around 6:05 “it eluded me for a while”. It’s certainly eluding me, even after watching your video!. So not intuitive. Could you slow down there or maybe explain how exactly you’re doing it?. I’m monitoring, can hear the notes, can see the notes p, but they are erased on every pass of the loop... frustrating. Thanks!

You gotta hit the M in the circle on the lower right and then hit the grey circle that shows up under the track you’re hoping to record to, it’ll turn red and then it’s record enabled

Should be wayyy more telegraphed by the app in my opinion, it’s a super important feature they basically hide

@tahiche.

Dylan Paris ditto that. Btw, I was doing precisely that. Tried it again and now it’s working. No ida of what was happening. It kept recording over the played notes. I mentioned on a previous comment it reminded me of Modstep, superb features but a not very clear UI. Feels the same with LK. LK is not ass deep and well eventually figure it out but, for example, the recording procedure is just not clear. Might it be a case where developers are so used to the UI they’re taking things for granted?. I say this in a constructive manner, in no way do I mean to be negative. - “m” we’ve learned stands for “monitor”, it could be “mute” or any number of things. A little, universal speaker icon would feel more at home. - it’s taken me a while to realize that when you open a sequence (piano roll) the top row of controls are for the selected sequence while the bottom are global. Again, it’s not that obvious, it’s confusing to see 2 “plays” that are exactly the same. Plus, unless you select a different sequence they do the same thing. Except the bottom has a “record”... I know it’d break the minimal (and great) design, but a little “sequence controls” and “global controls” label would help... These details might seem minor, but given the amount of choices in apps, feeling lost and frustrated for 10 minutes might be enough to close it and head somewhere else. I gave up on Modstep that way, and was close to doing so with LK. And it’s a shame cos this app is very appropriate to fill a gap in sequencing without a DAW. Thanks to this video I kept going. Make it obvious!. Obvious is good!. Cheers.

Also they commented on this video like “hey please message us because this error shouldn’t be happening” but then never responded to my email lol, seems very PR save face to me. UDPATE: LK reached out and appears to have patched the issue, great work team! I somehow missed the first email response and that is on me, Nuno and the team did great work here and responded quickly.

I don’t understand what you are doing when you start up something in aum and say ‘none’.

sorry but stand alone is way nicer to use than software like Ableton just not even comparable. It is harder and more time consuming but way more rewarding.
