iOS Bass Players Thread #6 - World Domination

New question - If I buy Loopy, what are my best pedal options for triggering those loops? (both wired and wireless).

I've heard about the blueboard but seems like I read somewhere that it was buggy. Is that still true or have they ironed out the kinks?

I've heard about Airturn, but don't you need more than 2 pedals?

Just have to say I got the best Christmas gift this year. My Wife got me the new iPad Air and this things rocks. I have the iPhone 5 and thought that was all I needed and it is but the iPad has zero noise issues when recording unlike my iPhone. I am also using the irig non HD and it sounds real good through this. So thank you to my wife for a gift I had no idea I was getting.

If anyone has more info they can give on on the positive grid pic of a pedal switch....Please do so.
I did not get an interface upgrade for Christmas in anticipation of the next great interface that has 96k input and the interface also handles the output....not the headphone jack.
I need more than a teaser photo.
Hard to wait for a purchase when my birthday/Christmas money is burning a hole in my pocket. :)
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.....all over the world. (Dukey and evangellos)

I've seen a scant few reports about latency on attached expression pedals, seen anything about that?

Depends a great deal on your processor, and the Bluetooth connection of the item vs. any interference in the area. Mine are very quick on an iPhone 4S. Newer iOS devices would probably be extremely fast.

I do know this, I like the simplicity of the sampler in JamUp, so if you want to get your feet wet with it, I'd start there.

5th Gen iPod Touch Update:
Live, I can hear no difference between the 5th gen Touch and the 4th gen iPad. The only issue is that the iPod's battery will only last about 2 hours with bluetooth on.

I don't think anyone makes a Lightning hub (where you can plug more then one iOS device into the Lightning jack), so you'll have to use something like the iO Dock that will charge/maintain the Touch (and I'm guessing the iPhone) and allow audio in/out at the same time. There's no way to use the Sonic Port with a Touch for more then a couple of hours.

I thought about using an induction charger while gigging... Not sure that will keep up.

Okay, that was the piece of information the complaining reviewer didn't mention; I'd be running on a 1st gen iPad mini or a 4S, with hopefully little interference. I was ready to plunk down some cash but the latency issue makes it less useful for me. $100 to find out....

Greetings Earthlings,

I'm new to everything iOS, but will be trying out using an iPad with soft synths controlled by a Roland PK-5A pedal for Moog Taurus-y sounds. I won't be running my bass through the iPad.

My question has to do with mounting the iPad. I'll probably be using it while standing as a keyboard as well, so the mounting position will be flat, landscape, and about waist high. There will be an iRig MIDI, with cables for one MIDI IN, and probably USB power, as well as the output.

So, a clamp, an adjustable extension arm, and some form of cable strain relief. Of the dozens of options I've looked at, none have any kind of strain relief. Any thoughts on this? Is it unnecessary? Are there jury-rigged ways of getting there? Is there a better mic stand mount that meets all these requirements?

Thanks!

I've been happy with this

on a mic stand...

I removed the tilt-back, as the gooseneck does the same thing on a flat surface...

The K&M 199 mic stand I use has cable clips on it...

Here is a mega iOS production, me and my band WTMD did this cover of a song by Mike Rutherford by Genesis. All iOS except the drums!! I I've mastered and mixed the song on Auria.
