Apple today updated its GarageBand for iOS, bringing the app up to version
1.4 and providing support for Audiobus. Originally launched back in December, Audiobus is an
iOS app available from developer A Tasty Pixel described as an
“inter-app audio routing system.” The app allows users to route audio from a
growing list of third-party Audiobus compatible synths, drum machines, effects,
and audio editing apps and record them simultaneously in other supported
multi-track editing apps. That means GarageBand users will now be able to use
Audiobus to route audio instruments and effects from other Audiobus compatible
iOS apps into a GarageBand session.
Audiobus provides an SDK to
developers that want to integrate the ability to support the Audiobus app and a
long list of popular music creation apps have already taken part, including:
Cubasis, Animoog, many of Korg’s apps, JamUp, Loopy, and now GarageBand. You
can see a full list of apps that support Audiobus here. The Audiobus app will cost you an
additional $9.99 on top of the cost of GarageBand ($4.99).
Other improvements in today’s update
include the ability to turn off grid snapping in order to easier control the
placement of regions when editing and a fix for issues with third-party audio
accessories:
• Play and
record music apps supported by Audiobus directly into GarageBand*
• Turn off
grid snapping to get finer control over region and note editing
• Fixes an
issue that resulted in feedback while connecting 3rd-party audio accessories
into the headphone/microphone jack.
