[iOS] Audiostreaming Between Apps via Audiobus

http://25.media.tumblr.com/avatar_65a6c9638f67_40.pngGood news for the App-a-holics among us. A specific audiostreaming protocol is to come to the iOS platform. It’s named Audiobus.

While formerly the export to the cloud or via iTunes to the Host-PC/Mac was required, now using Audiobus we can stream audio from one app to another. Release date is december, 10th and the pricetag is named with 10US$ according the german tech news Heise.de.

Several apps will immediately receive updates to support Audiobus, among these are:

  • Funkbox (audio input)
  • JamUp XT and JamUp Pro XT (efx)
  • Loopy and Loopy HD (audio input and output)
  • MultiTrack DAW (audio output)
  • NLog Midi Synth and NLog Midi Synth Pro (audio input, efx and output)
  • Rebirth (audio input)
  • SoundPrism Pro (audio input)
  • Sunrizer Synth (audio input

More apps supporting the Audiobus protocol to come, as Apple is said to have this protocol officially allowed. For developers an SDK is available. Check the vids for some more insights… enjoy fellas…

[MacOS] Recommended Apps: MacTubes

Abstract

Do you ever wanted to download some of the YouTube videos, simply to have them available when being on the road? Or say: you wanna archive them, because as we’ve seen in the past with several major media services: there will be a time when they don’t exist anymore.

But YouTube does not support downloading their videos anymore.

MacTubes’ Features

This is where MacTubes by mametunes comes into place. MacTubes is an open source project that is freely downloadable. Besides downloading MacTubes also supports just playing YouTube videos. You also can make custom playlists without having a YouTube account.

Tips and Tricks

MacTubes is straightforward, as most of those nice freeware Mac applications are.

The only hint we can give: don’t wonder if errors occur when trying to download HD videos. This is normal. Although YouTube may show that you are playing the video in HD quality, this is not true in all cases. You can see this quite obviously when comparing the video resolutions between the normal video and the HD video just with your eyes.
