rrarrow audio effects for ipad

rrarrow is the experimental modular audio effect and noise machine for the iPad featuring extended feedback capabilities.

Key features:
– Simplicity. The interface is simplified for faster assembly and more flexible connectivity — you can assemble your effect very fast and control all the processing parameters with the audio signal.
– Feedback capabilities. You can add feedbacks to the audio chain to get some chaotic noise sounds
– Twelve blocks for audio processing:
– Sine generator. Basic oscillator with sine waveform
– Signal multiplier
– Delay
– Frequency shifter
– Envelope follower
– “Lorenz attractor”
– Quantizer
– Sample-and-hold
– Reverb
– Special Lowpass filter
– Clipper
– Nonlinear shaper (for self-oscillating circuit)
– Audiobus support. Now you can stream live audio directly to other Audiobus-compatible apps! See http://audiob.us for more information. Works as input and filter.
– Background audio support: enabled when connected to Audiobus and user switchable otherwise.

iPad2 or newer is recommended for complex presets

Stereo Designer Stereo Effects For iPad
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , ,

Stereo Designer iPad

Stereo Designer is an easy to use multi-purpose stereo shaping tool for Audiobus and Inter-app Audio. Create unique wide stereo images, “stereoize” a mono sound source, apply mid/side processing, independent high and low pass filters per channel, and more.

Process synths, drum machines and hundreds of other apps by connecting through Audiobus. Use Stereo Designer as an effect inside Garageband, Auria, Cubasis, and AudioShare using Audiobus or Inter-app audio.

Stereo Designer features two distinct modes: PERFORM and TWEAK.

● PERFORM mode is focused around four XY touch pads. Touch to control LOW PASS, DELAY, PAN and OUTPUT gain independently for left and right channels.

● TWEAK mode features large expressive sliders and additional effect parameters, allowing you to fine tune your sound.

In addition to Audiobus and Inter-app Audio support, Stereo Designer can also process external instruments such as guitar, voice and synths by connecting a microphone or professional audio interface such as the Apogee Jam, ONE, or any iOS compatible USB audio interface.

Vocal Stutter Effect with Samplr & Echo Pad
Author View comments Tags Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Echo-Pad New

This tutorial goes through the process I used to make the vocal stuttering effect you can hear at the beginning of the song ‘Shapes’. Apps used were Audiobus, Audioshare, Samplr, Echo Pad and Loopy.

The original vocal sample was created by using a hardware looper to record and resample the vocal multiple times, and the output was recorded as a dry signal into Ableton.

Note: The Audiobus used in the clip above is a beta version of Audiobus2.
