Thanks so much 🙏🏼

[@GavinskisTutorials]

Thanks for linking to my vid Jakob, this complements it very well, I learnt a few things here! Cheers, Gav

[@AtommHD]

AUM should have a toggle tab between narrow view and full view of the mixer. This would help to see more channels on the screen.

[@GregorMcNish]

One small feature i’ ve used is the midi range curve under channel midi mapppings. You can map 1cc to 2 different channels with opposite range curves to get a crossfade or balance control.

[@JakobHaq]

Yeah I love stuff like that! I set up macros for volume/dist or volume/filter a lot. I love having full on control.

[@mickturner8977]

Awesome stuff Jakob. Thanks for the great tips.

[@antoinenioi6863]

Super .. good tips ! Very fun ! Thanks man

[@senhorlampada]

Amazing content, Jakob! Thanks for this 💖

[@EnriquePage91]

Nice video Jakob :) many people will surely find their way to this video in the long run! BTW, i love how everybody chooses how they work in AUM; I 99% of the time use the grid for midi. It’s just so practical and quick !

[@seljoypro]

Amazing. I came here for Program changes in AUM and love the Actions feature. Thank you 🙏🏾

Thanks! Very very helpful!!!

Great stuff so useful thanks Jakob

[@MrSimonEskildsen]

Regarding bookmarks - you don’t have to bookmark the start and end, tapping the house icon in the bookmark window switches you back and forth from there..

[@TheScreamingFrog916]

That is very helpful, thanks for sharing.

[@BellowsSqueezer]

An excellent tutorial. Thank you. ❤️

[@ThomasGeleyn]

Interesting! Didn’t know you could use AUM to turn a device into a midi controller. I always used miditure and midimittr on my iphone to act as an MPE controller

[@redshift3696]

amazing bro!

[@TheScreamingFrog916]

This was very helpful. Got me back into using AUM, and playing with my iOS apps again. I was not aware of these things. Got me back into using AUM, and playing with my iOS apps again. Always uplifting, to learn something from Jakob :-) Thanks for sharing, and have a wonderful day.

[@anacrusisinthailand]

Great stuff you certainly increased my AUM knowledge ... you have a great clear and simple delivery style that makes your information easy to follow and understand; thanks a bunch

[@JakobHaq]

Thank you! I’m happy you find my videos useful. I’ve collected all AUM related videos in this playlist (will keep adding videos as I make em) kzbin.info/aero/PLvNQD1EpaiNObDUoHfT4RRT2_OP-HMRWe

[@originalsynth]

Hi Jakob, as usual a clear and useful tutorial :) You can also just tap on any small vertical meter and it'll show it on the top horizontal larger meter. I don't know why the smaller meters can't be 2 or 3 circles taller... Carry on the great work :)) sorry can't do emojis

[@FrozenLonesome]

Great list of features Jakob. I learned a lot. Love the idea of another iPad as a controller or midi source.

[@JakobHaq]

Happy you found the video helpful!

[@Funkotronimus]

The last feature is one of my favorites! It’s at the top of my list of things to share when I start making videos of stuff (after I get a little better settled into my place)

[@JakobHaq]

It’s pretty sweet. There are actually more apps that can and berries themselves as BLT controllers like MIDI Designee Pro for instance. I’ve used that in the past.

[@jolieuke]

Hey Jakob, i only just discovered your channel and wow i love it :) Can u point me to a tutorial, where it shows me how to record a full song structure in AUM? I love chord changes and time sig. changes too... Do you know of ways to break out of very 'loopy' workflows? Much appreciated :) Thanks and love, Max

[@EmergingPatterns]

Another cool tip is the transpose that you can access on all AUM tracks so with one sequencer you can do complex arrangements and multitimbral synth layering stuff

[@EnriquePage91]

It’s a shame that it doesn’t have a quantization tool. ApeMatrix does and it’s the one thing AUM is missing on this aspect you’ve brought up! The scale quantizer on the ApeMatrix grid is a blessing

[@perrypelican9476]

@@EnriquePage91 contact the guy who created AUM by email. It's Important to do it by email. He listens to good suggestions and you can open a dialogue with him. Very nice guy.

[@walrtbstudios5430]

That last one was neat. I had no idea about metering though. Still don’t tbh- I’ll have to watch that bit again!

[@wignallyt]

Great video. A "Part 2" video with the extra tips in the comments section might be a good idea. Thank you & thumbs up!

[@JakobHaq]

I agree! 👊🏼😊

[@perrypelican9476]

A simple one that is not known by all is if you want to add a second or third etc fx, to a track, instead of going down to the + sign, you just double tap the line below the last fx in the verticale list.

[@lazyabeats]

Thanks, this is really helpful tip

[@spooky_zoo]

One of my favourites. I was gonna mention this too.

[@greghernandez7590]

Nice I didn’t know that one

[@perrypelican9476]

@@spooky_zoo it's amazing how the AUM developer never stops adding features. He listens to all good suggestions. He has added a few things that I bugged him to add. I love that. It is one reason that AUM has become so bloody amazing.

[@edgardocrespo3840]

Hi Jakob, would you know if I can use ChordMaps 2 as controller using 2 ipad as you demonstrated on this video using bluetooth. Thanks and your tutorialsl are always interesting and a guide thru this confusing AUM apps. More power to you and a Happy New Year.

[@khrix1185]

Switch to AUM is definitely a keep sake especially since some apps are only in standalone some do have a side panel to switch still its useful to map that for quick Swiss’s in between iaa and host apps

[@nathanbryers]

👍🏼 lots I didn’t know there Thankyou …. The last trick looked flash… have you had any joy with Lemur as your peripheral?? Yo let’s see?

[@RianTrost]

Exactly the type of content I've been searching for! Please don't hesitate to repeat any of these lessons in more detail or what you feel are some of the best ways to Midi Map Agonizer, or fun ways to sequence Agonizer. I run into SUPER basic troubles figuring out what must seem like really dumb things such as, 'should this be an audio, or midi channel'?

[@RianTrost]

...or things that I should look up on my own, but have been too lazy to do so far. Like what are the differences between Inter-App Audio, and Audio Unit Extensions? I'm sure you've covered these in previous videos so it's horribly really rude for me to ask - hey, just do it again. So I'm gonna go jump into these back catalogs and try to spend some more time getting the _fundementals_ of AUM down, so that I spend more time having fun, and less time 'figuring shit out'.

[@seazenbones6945]

[@RevellingTerror]

Hey Jakob, hope all's well. Perhaps an extremely useful feature that is not so well known is the "Pre/Post fader" setting? Cheers.

[@Aleamanic]

Did you say in the opening "11 features that are easy to MIX" ? What a great pun, hahaha ;-)

[@DerAlFonz]

did you know that you can wind forwards and backwards by pressing and swiping the trransport control?

[@JakobHaq]

Omg, that is so useful!! No it’s a feature I’ve totally missed! 🤩

[@Steve.Dennis]

I sense a follow up video coming soon.

[@bernieburnalot]

NICE!!

[@mentalvasectomy]

I read through the AUM documentation just now and found this in there! This is a game changer for me. The number of times I’ve cursed about this.. 😂

[@ambrosiajam8008]

I discovered this by mistake one day. It was literally the same day I was whining about how there weren’t any features like this in AUM, when I stumbled across this feature, too 😂

[@webncyber]

Thank you! How about syncing tempo from external hardware synth? There is MMC sync for transport but not syncing tempo

[@antoinenioi6863]

Swift to Aum very cool function ! can you tell me if possible if possible to Swicht to another app from starting Aum ?

[@simonemancusoperc]

What a great video! I was wondering, can you connect a midi controller/pad to trigger the play button or the channels?

[@JakobHaq]

Yes, the transport controls can be mapped so you can send play/stop, rewind etc on a midi controller. You can map controls in apps too to trigger them, play etc. and mixer controls are mappable to.

[@MatthewJohnCrittenden]

Excellent, I am ashamed to say much of this was new to me. I've been using (and enjoying) AUM at a very basic level it seems :)

[@JakobHaq]

Don’t feel bad, it took me some time to find these features myself. I even discovered new ones thanks to comments done by my viewers. Love this community!

[@iosmusicman]

I spotted the deliberate error just to prove I watched it all very carefully Jakob. You connected cubasis in the last midi routing (instead of your iPad mini ). Great tips though. Ta. Lee

[@DinMcHine]

MIDI advertisement from another iPad is the best!!!

[@JamieMallender]

Excellent video - so useful thank you dude. But, how can you not love the matrix you strange sausage? X

[@JakobHaq]

I’ve realised over the year that Matrixes aren’t really my thing. I get lost easily in and have a hard time focusing on connections, especially when it grows into bigger setups.

[@left0verture]

Amazing. I’m trying to decide… is AUM the app version of Jakob, or is Jakob the meat world version of AUM? Either way, both amazing and indispensable.

[@JakobHaq]

I don’t know how to feel about this comment, but I think I love it!

[@senhorlampada]

@@JakobHaq Is this some sign that you are the meat world version? AUM doesn't know how to feel too 😂😂😂

Hello, I naively thought that these four products of yours would work on my Apple Mac. I could not get them to work so I got my Son to pop-around - and he explained why they would not work. Maybe my age had a part to play in this, I am 76 and not computer literate as I though I was. My “wrongful” purchase of these items is MY Fault. Pity I was looking forward to using these.

[@PantaFlux]

At about 10:30 you are talking about connecting your iPad mini via BT to Agonizer. But in the matrix it shows a connection from Cubasis 3 to Agonizer. Did I miss something? Or is it just a mishap (i.e. pressed the wrong column)?

[@JakobHaq]

You did not miss anything but I did. It’s a miss press and then I just didn’t realised it. Did not even see it while editing. 😅😓

[@charlescowper]

I’m curious about syncing to external Midi

[@bluesky2145]

How can I change quickly between presets in AUM? let's say I have three channels to find with three different instruments that have the sounds bass, piano, horns and they have their zones set. then for the next song I need to switch to a new set of presets that this time have strings, rhoads, oboe and they use some new instruments. If I have a set list of 40 songs is there a way to show a list of the 40 presets and just tap go to the next I'm ready to start the next song? I don't see anything in the manual about presets

[@noeisgirl]

i wonder why they don't have an option to have meters overlayed to the big faders for each channels.. that'd be so much more intuitive and easy to see

[@gtrgeorge348]

Setting keyboard zones? It’s pretty awkward to set up, but it’s there...

[@JakobHaq]

Good tip! I don’t think I’ve ever done that myself. I’ll look into it. 👍

[@mendocinotim]

I have an MPK Mini pro 37 controller keyboard and want to map the play/record/rewind buttons to AUM’s transport controls. But when I try assigning these using AUM’s midi learn it doesn’t appear to work. Is there some trick to this I’m missing? Note: I used the following steps in AUM.. 1. Using the hamburger menu in the top right hand corner of AUM.. 2. I select midi control.. 3. Then under transport, I select parameters.. 4. From there I select toggle play. 5. I then tap midi learn and then the play button on the controller. This should work, but it doesn’t.

Jakob, why is that some plugins does not fit well after double tapping. For example Egoist. I have to manually resize the window to see the patter part on its bottom. So annoying. Nice list tho! :)

I think that might have something to do with how individual apps are coded to scale, so it’s not AUM.

Press on a channel name and drag up. When you do this, the channel view will zoom out and now you can drag channels sideways, left and right, to re-order then.

I think Jonathan has opened up the code for AUM so that developers can set a node colour for when their plugins load. If you missed it, the node colouring option was added a little while ago. I’m showing it in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHuQiIONrbeBoKc

What I got from this video: I was interested in AUM, but after seeing this tutorial and reading comments about other hidden features & workflow tips..this app is not for me.

[@JakobHaq]

What I’m showing here is the stuff that people easily miss. Great features but maybe not necessary for a lot of people. My advice would be to go watch a “AUM basics” video first before you make up your mind. 👍

PLEASE GIVE US THE MIXBOX PRESETS!!! I have contacted you here several times and have no reply. I understand how busy things are but In my world everything has stopped waiting for these 303 effects. If you cant get it done right now then please reply quickly and let me know? Cheers bro.

[@JakobHaq]

I can’t get it done now, I’m waiting too. It’s not on my end. I’ve tried sharing the presets from myself to another pad but I couldn’t get that to work either, otherwise I could have shared them in another way. So now I have to wait.

[@JakobHaq]

I got a response that they’ve notified the product manager for Mixbox, so they’re looking into it.

[@JakobHaq]

Ok so there is something going on with my registration but the tech guys aren’t back until Monday. There might be something weird going on with yours too.

[@JakobHaq]

They’re still on it. And I’ve been helping them test as I’m not getting the in app message either. However, In the meantime, registered users can grab the presets from My Products: www.ikmultimedia.com/userarea/my-products/ Tap on "Related Downloads" under MixBox CS and get access to all signature presets.

[@johnnylicorice2811]

AUM actually has an audio timeline that is hidden from the user interface. Use “offset” to trigger audio as on a timeline e.g.: intro = offset 0 Verse = offset 64 Chorus = offset 128 Verse = offset 192 Chorus = offset 256 Bridge = offset 320 Chorus = offset 384 You can even fast forward or rewind by dragging the transport control section, but each section needs to be on a separate track, because there is only one offset trigger per sample. I hope we get an actual timeline UI one day, or at least multiple offset triggers per phrase sample.
