DUDE! I’ve been using the original MKSensation mixed with Ravenscroft on AUM thanks to you. Now I have to get this one! Looks awesome and it has a lot more sounds.

Awesome tutorial, John Mike! Thank you, for sharing your wisdom!

Thanks for this, looks great for church. Please could you show us how you setup your hardware? Walking through connecting the controllers to the iPad, the audio output to the main mixer etc. Thanks!

So dope, bro...i am already loving Extreme on my laptop...can't wait to have it on my ipad...thanks for the review...

Maaannnnn!! I can pickup a few controllers and 2 ipads and have a ready made backline for my key players. You just put a brother in the game. Thank you!!!

JM , once again as always, U duhhhh Man. U keep bringing it to us . As several people shared previously, I have the VST on my MacBook yet waiting on the IOS release. U are a legend, sir...🎶🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

This is definitely a game changer

I cannot wait for this 🙌🏾

Hey Mike God bless bro ur completely right bro I have the same keyboard rig setup , Km88 + Korg 01W you remember korg O1W classic +iPad AUM and M-Audio interface with USB power hub Mike I’m running this setup Yo Mike game changer bro every musician needs this , Mike you said it bro words can’t even explain it , it’s 100 percent Dopest setup ever on one small iPad

Great content as always. Like others mentioned, I’m waiting NOT so patiently for this to come to IOS. This along with MIDIculous 4 would be amazing to finally have on IOS so I can utilize on my M1 iPad Pro.

Good work Jamal and Mike. 👍

Really really dope video as usual bro! As everyone said, can’t wait for the IOS Version! Already have the desktop version on my laptop and loving it!

Amazing job man, thanks

I am an app junkie.... and love these keyboard apps. The latest I added is the Mini Moog Model D... Fantastic sounding analog synth. I just wish I could actually play the piano!!! I end up setting up my iPad for my keyboard player so we can recreate the same sounds you find in some of the best classic rock tunes... Your videos are great John! Thank you for sharing them!!!

I have lots of apps such as AUM, Bismark, korg module, ravenscroft, Rhodes affair for iPad. But thinking of upgrading the rig to MacBook Pro or the new iPad Pro. I’m leaning towards the iPad to keep all apps compatible.

Thank u for sharing brother

Plugin sounds awesome. Definitely will check it out. Any recommendations for an ipad plugin with great trombones, saxes, flutes for live playing.

Brooooo this is legit! Thank you for this! Was saving up for an M1 Macbook, but, I'll prolly get a used ipad for cheaps THAAAANKS!

Hi, first of all I wanted to congratulate you on your videos.... Really interesting, well done and educational. My need is for live use with my band. 20 years ago I was using a pc with a m audio firewire 410 with which I used to manage stereo backing tracks, drummer clicks + vst instruments played live, all driven by cubase. Now it's been 20 years (in which I've been away from gigs) and I'm undecided on what to buy. I have 3 macbook pro's at home so I could use one of them for audio. I don't need to record: I just want to be able to manage backing tracks and simultaneously play vst instruments live (using main stage or gig performer or something... I'll have to look into that too). So I'll need at least 4 outputs (using the backing tracks in mono on one channel and the click on another channel + 2 stereo channels for vst). The idea is to get a soundcard that I can then also use in the future if I decide to switch to ipad (to lighten up the equipment). I also need to connect at least two keyboards via midi, and this I could do by adding a usb hub. I also need traditional midi inputs because I have an old keyboard that doesn't send control changes via USB but only via the midi outputs (although I could probably use a midi to USB cable). Currently what sound cards do you feel like recommending for the use I need? Thanks in advance!

Anybody else was waiting on a quick jam session to kick in? Definitely getting that app when it comes out!

Nice video! Can you do a video demonstrating how to use an iPad for backing tracks in a live church service when there is no drummer or as a compliment to a drummer? To be able to, in real time, adjust the tempo of a shout track and so on. That would be a very helpful video.

Patiently waiting

Looks like a great app

Aloha John, Just liked and subscribed. Big mahalo for all of the videos you put out. Several have helped me lately. And this one is is doing the same. I want to use my iPad in a way to control both my KeyLab Essential 88 and my Nord Stage 3, plus add the Roland SRX Brass software that I have into my gig mix. This looks like it might be the answer. Still not sure that I might have to have my Mac mini at the gig to find a home for the Roland software via Ableton Live. Any thoughts on that one? Thanks for the great videos.

Awesome video is there an updated video with using your iPhone?

Thanks John -- I've also been gigging with iPad and Midi controllers. AUM is definitely a good alternative. Another option is Camelot Pro. Don't know if you've considered this an a host on iPad? If so, would be curious what you think of it. Camelot works well for me.

Hi John, what are you using for the MIDI interface? Thx for the video.

Wow finally mk Xtreme is on the iPad Got it for$ 14.99 about to break it in.

Good info, Sir Mike. Good video. Question... Can this setup be connected via USB to a Zoom session? Please advise.

Mike, do you have a video in setting up MKS for Midi using AKAI LPD8?

I'm gonna get this one! :D

Make sure you look at the system requirements! I got it today and it’s not happy on my Air2 64gb. It’s not even usable. So for me, I’ll be sticking with Module.

I really love the GarageBand concert grand. Is there a way to load it up in AUM ?

I’m confused. In this video are you running mksensation within AUM, or just one of the other? Thanks again for another great piece of instruction!

They already raised the price of the desktop version from $99 to $199. Too bad I missed the introductory pricing. Looking forward to the iOS version!

Released iOS today 7/11. 🔥🔥🔥 got both VST & iOS...🙌🏾

Hey JM, love your content! Been following along for awhile now, trying to decide which direction to go. I'm a Windows user (work & play), so I've adopted Gig Performer as my VST host. But I just can't get past the convenience and portability of your iPad based rig. What really got me was the video where you connected 20 controllers to an iPad! So, if I were to make the jump away from Windows and adopt MK Sensation and AUM, what iPad do you recommend? Thank you!

Do you need another gear to get a better sound from Ipad if you want to play at church? like not a big church though

John Mike quick question... I learned of using aum from your channel of course.. But I have a dilemma, when I'm using a midi controller for volume my main board doesn't play most of mksensation xtremes sounds nor the bass sounds but will play with my midi controller and head phones... my main is a yamaha ypg 235.. Could it be that its out dated??

Hey John! I really want to try this setup with my ipad but, can these 2 apps run in background ? I need to have the Pdf reader on my screen and i am woried only about this!

Do you need an audio interface with the iPad like the Focusrite???

Love what you are doing here and your channel! Not loving the tinny gospel digitalpiano sound though, how come y'all be using that instead of a nice sampled grandpiano sound?

What’s the connection for the iPad with extreme on two keyboards

One more thing. Have you tried to see how ALM works on your Stage 3 with the extern feature?

I’m Having a difficult time with getting sound response from my iPad. When I open up garage band I hear playback. But when I open up MKS extreme, I don’t hear any sound. Do I have to change the settings inside the MKS app?

hello john mike can i use a korg nano kontrol because i use the mksensation with my iphone at church so using the phone to control volumes is hard , and advices?

Is it one sound per board? or can you layer/zone multiple sounds on the same board?

Hey, man…just recently started using MKSensation Extreme again and I realized why I stopped using it. Is there a fix for sounds cutting off when switching patches? I mean, as soon as I tap a button, sound stops.

Hey John Mike, what about one controller with splits and layers? Something like, left hand bass, right split piano string pad and one other layer? Have a expression pedal control the layer 2 and 3 on right and not on piano?

So will I need 4 keyboards for the different sound if I want to layer

Hello. I played service with the MKS extreme today on iPad Air 5 and there was latency- enough latency that I was struggling to play on beat even when I then connected to power. Is there any tip to help avoid this?

Just a random question. I have an Ipad Pro 2021 and I want to get me a midi controller keyboard. 61 or 88 keys. As main ?daw? (Is garageband a daw) i want to use garageband. What would be the best keyboard controller in that situation? I want to be able to control as much as is possible from the keyboard. I never played a piano/organ/keyboard ever in my life, a complete novice, and as i am getting retired soon i want to use and learn to play classical oriented music using a keyboard/ipad. Any advice would be really appreciated

Hi, does anyone know if I can use this plugin as an FX plugin? I mean, I wish to use the internal effects like the amp or the rotary in my camelot pro effects chain

Can you play backing tracks through AUM?

can I use MKsensation on one channel then pure synth on other channel?

MKSensation appears to be more stable running in AUM than it is running by itself. I believe it was designed to do what Mike is doing but in its own app. I don’t think it’s quite there yet. Still glitchy.

Quick question? Are you with ASCAP or BMI?

What hub do you use to link them together?

Can AUM Mixer manage many songs with multiple presets per song for live performance AND if so can you point me to a video or documentation ? For example Song 1 Preset 1, 2,3 Song 2 Preset 1,2,3,4 etc.......

Could you do an updated video on how you have the hardware and midi set up with the multiple keyboards…went back to strictly hardware but I’m thinking about going back hybrid
