Auria Pro by WaveMachine Labs (makers of the well established Drumagog plugin) was released at the end of 2015 and brings a desktop class DAW to iOS. The original Auria was already powerful by mobile standards, but the latest version raises the bar in terms of features and performance and brings a full feature set to the iPad. IPad 4 or later recommended; iOS 6.1 or later required. Auria will record from the iPad mic, but a compatible USB Class 2 audio interface and Camera Connection Kit is recommended. Auria Pro supports CoreMIDI compatible MIDI interfaces. Some plug-ins are optional, as noted. All Trademarks recognized as property of their respective owners.

Auria Vs Garageband Ipad Reviews

Mar 14, 2018 Apple GarageBand. Steinberg Cubasis 2. Image Line FL Studio Mobile. Xewton Music Studio. WaveMachine Labs Auria Pro - Music Production. The iPad offers a fair bit of music-making potential in a very portable and intuitive form. For playing sounds, being a synthesizer, working as a controller or making beats and triggering loops. IPad 4 or later recommended; iOS 6.1 or later required. Auria will record from the iPad mic, but a compatible USB Class 2 audio interface and Camera Connection Kit is recommended. Auria Pro supports CoreMIDI compatible MIDI interfaces. Some plug-ins are optional, as noted. All Trademarks recognized as property of their respective owners. Fl Studio Vs Garageband Ipad 2; Garageband Ipad Tutorial; Among other things, I have had difficulty finding instruments in GarageBand that sound the way I want them to (note, I'm not talking about the final song, I mean the instrument itself). I learned that GarageBand is actually not all that common, and one of the more popular applications is.

From what I've read Cubasis is closer to what Beatmaker already does. I don't own it though (becuase it's outrageously expensive if that's true), so I have to be honest and say I really don't know. I could be completely wrong there. I DO own Auria, though, and I can tell you it's amazing. It has it's growing pains at times with various bugs, but the developers are amazing. They're very active in their forums and they push out updates frequently to address issues and add new plugins. I haven't come across anything remotely close to what I can get out of Auria on iOS in another app. Be warned though, the plugins can get expensive as well. They're worth it imo, but it can get pricey if you start buying everything they offer.

I don't own either, but if I was going to buy one, I'd go for Auria. It looks more robust and the PSP Audio channel strip and master strip are top notch. Not to mention the in-app purchase plugins like Pro-Q and Vintage Warmer.

My main reason in iOS production was sparked by Avid's ludicrous upgrade pricing to protools 10- I am still on 8.0.5- the last version I plan on using.
That said, I bought Auria right when it came out, and although I still much prefer editing in protools, I love everything else about Auria. The mix buss sounds great, and for those that want virtual instruments they are coming...
Cubasis seems like a stripped down version of cubase (which I also used back in the day), and their decision to go 16 bit will hurt them in the 'pro' market.

Thank you for the feedback guys! I think i'm going to try out Auria.

From what I've heard around the net, Cubasis doesn't even have automation. That pretty much takes it out of the equation completely for pro music production. Not to mention that its effects also supposedly suck.

The effects in cubasis are a joke
Its super high for what it is.
Garageband instruments sound way superior
Auria imho sounds better than most daw systems. Auria has fabfilter plugs which are badass...shows over Auria is superior by leaps and bounds. My complaint is Auria is pushing ios pretty hard...so as things get kinda heavy on ipad2 zooming gets real slowwwwww...i have heard ipad 4 makes a big difference here. Havent tried myself though...but will soon

auria is bound to get more updates as it's developed by a company who only makes iOS apps where as cubasis is developed by guys who make desktop software too,
(look at image line and fl studio mobile...)
plus it's got all those IAP plugins, and audiobus on the way...

I love auria and can't wait until they throw midi and audiobus in.The IAP selection is growing fast and is very tempting.A lot of awesome plugins right now.The Pro EQ is my most favorite DAW Eq for years and i was more then happy to see it in auria.And its a pleasure to use it on the touchscreen,better than using a mouse (at least for me).But micgee is right.Aurias edit screen is too sluggish,doesnt matter how big the project is.Although its still possible to drive bigger projects with a lot of channelstrips active (on an ipad 2).But the IAP's are very cpu hungry.And i can imagine that audiobus in auria can eat up the cpu in a second or maybe even impossible to use.So i made the decision now to get myself an ipad 4 this week.
I was kinda excited when cubasis arrived but after i read the whole manual i'm disappointed.I love the look and i can imagine that its a lot of fun to work with it if the edit window is smooth.But a lot of common features missing.The FX. are a bad joke (2-band eq?Seriously?),no automation,only 16bit,very cheap sounding instruments and it crashes more often than the competitors.Currently not worth 50$,simple as that.
But these are all points the steinberg developer know and want to improve over the time (regarding to their forum posts)I'll keep an eye on it.But who knows where auria is when steinberg delivered all the promissed things?And what will apple do now?A logic lite on iPad would be awesome.Thats the reason why i still hold on and not buying more auria IAP.
But i guess i'll stick with auria anyway,they have just an amazing support (probably the best i've ever seen)and can concentrate only on their'little baby'.They just deserve it to support them <img src='{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif' alt=':)' />

I mostly use Logic pro as my main recorder at the moment...moving to ipad and auria totally soon...
I'm not excited about apple and the ipad offering they provide musically, garageband is a closed system...it adopts no technologies at all which is lame imho. Logic on ipad is too little too late...auria honestly sounds better than logic pro to my ears...as logic has a real issue when it comes to the final render...logic playbck from actual file versus the actual mixdown file is like day and night...it is impossible to predict what the final render is going to sound like...it is not a what ou hear is what you get thing like protools...auria is dead on here as well. Logic is highly unimpressive...as far as the audio render goes...which is the most important thing in my opinion...logic pro is a great place to build songs...terrible place to finalize this process.
