- The iOS music ecosystem has yielded a number of cool, nonstandard ways of writing music. Central to many of them is an app called AUM, which acts as an essential thread to get all of your different apps talking to eachother. In this video, I use AUM along with an amazing, revolutionary sequencer app called Fugue Machine and my own Decent Sampler to make a piece of music...and there's not a DAW in sight.
Decent Sampler for iOS can be download here: apps.apple.com...

This is game changing, all this power right on your phone. Can’t wait to midi out into some vintage synth hardware!!
What's really cool is with Ableton Link + Fugue Machine and Midi-rtp you can sequence anything over your home network in Ableton and External synths. Amazing
Man. I spent two hours making epic sounds after watching this video. Thank you!!!
This opens a door I never expected.
Quite inspiring , gave me many ideas 💚 Thank you for sharing..
I've only just discovered that Decent Sampler is also available on IOS and I'm loving it.
I've been sequencing it with the new version2 of Patterning and it's opened up a whole new line of inspiration and ideas.
Big Thanks to you and Haq Attaq and all the other contributors for your wonderful sound packs.
I've been on a bit of a roll again creating tracks in my "Mystical Shed" for my youtube channel " The Mystical Shed Sessions" . I've now got quite a few new tracks to create videos for 😊
I move back and forth from cubase pro and ipad apps. I use a cloud based system to migrate files back and forth. It can be more time consuming but the results are unique. Sometimes I bring a well developed track into blocs wave and aum and work things around. Other times I will start a mew track and then bring into cubase pro to develop further. I can mix down and move ideas back and forth. The ipad for me is a playable surface with inspiring apps like fugue machine, fluss, gestrument, mononuke, Rosetta, fieldscaper etc. I always complete and mix and master my projects in Cubase Pro. I basically set up a folder track file In Cubase called ipad apps and import as needed.
You’re one of my favorite you tubers. I love what you’re teaching and how you teach it. Thanks!
For the first time, i’ve got to understand how it works. Thank u so much.
Been eyeballing fugue machine for awhile and you just sold it to me in 5 minutes.
Thanks for this. It explains what I’ve been doing for the last 3 months or so. If anyone asks me what AUM is I’ll send them here. Looks like have to Fugue machine too. The possibilities are endless with this stuff. Thanks again.
We need to make a statue of you for your contribution! ThanK you so much on my behalf sir! You are more than a good man.
Hello David this sounds great , thanks for all your work supporting IOS composers 🙏🦄🎩
Fugue machine is my go to app using AUM
I needed to see this today as I am desperately trying to fend off GAS (gear acquisition syndrome)
I love Fugue Machine and AUM 👍 Totally changed the way I sequence my hardware synths as well. Great video 😎
i dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know of a method to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost the account password. I would appreciate any help you can give me
@Dillon Orlando Instablaster :)
@Issac Zachariah i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Issac Zachariah it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account !
@Dillon Orlando Glad I could help :D
Hilowitz you are the man!
Decent Video David! Kudos!!
Fugue has 5 midi outs, 1 for each of the play heads plus the 5th which is all four mixed into one 😎
Very interesting. Thanks for the video; it really helped me understand the whole sequencing thing on AUM.
Oh my... this is awesome! Kinda regret selling my iPhone, now. I guess I have another reason to convince myself to get an iPad. Haha!
Nice video! I am also obsessed with Fugue Machine and AUM also! I'm downloading your app now and will give it a go.
Great video
fANTASTIC@@ Thank You for the great inspiration! There was a now ancient sequencer that had loop tools that could be looped and overlapped with some amazing midi routing that this reminds me of... Bars & Pipes on the Amiga! I've got a few vids of it running if you're ever curious! Great great vids!! keep up the wonderful work!! (-=
Bars & Pipes on the Amiga I'm glad you have remembered it here. I have fond memories of it.
really cool workflow
Sooo hè!! Wauw!!🤗
A couple of days ago I bought an iOS device for the first time in over a decade (ipad mini 5), I shall be sure to try out all of this asap!
Thanks David very insightful....love this loop you created as well.
Well....and now, I'm a new subscriber
Cheers, nice quality video. I think AUM is like OM. Fugue rules universes as well! Hey you didn't make that fretboard app did you? ITs still good. Cheers.
Brilliant!! Love you channel!! Thank you!!!
Stuff like multiple playheads and track localized bpm have stuck out to me for years as stuff you'd expect modern DAWs to revel in. But instead there's the same old 90's style sequencers with very little imagination or flexibility besides live looping. There's a bunch of cool little apps with great ideas, it would be great to see some of that in a computer DAW.

I suppose that's why we have plugins.
@@straighttalk2069 Plugins aren't really ideal for changing fundamental principles of how a DAW is set up. Like, if I want microtonality I can use a plugin that retunes my MIDI data to different pitches, but the plugin isn't going to change the visual feedback I'm getting from the DAW's MIDI grid. Sure, there's manual workarounds for achieving just about anything, but it still seems very limiting that DAWs in 2021 mostly don't support much flexibility around rhythm and tonality. DAWs in general are much more constraining in their approach to what's easily achievable than equivalent programs in other mediums like video, photo and graphics editors.
@@iy42 When you put it like that I have to agree.
Personally I prefer hardware and I control my hardware with a hardware sequencer like my Squarp pyramid and my hardware arpeggiator BlueARP DM MK1.
My favourite hardware controller is a Raspberry Pi running my own custom sequencer written in C++.
@@straighttalk2069 Cool setup! The hardware workflow is hard to beat as far as how hands on and tactile it is, I just wish the software side of audio would focus less on trying to replicate preexisting hardware and more on leaning into the specific advantages of digital and the endless flexibility it potentially has.
Thats the beauty of AUM and realtime experiments and jams. Just record your stuff. Just enable record on all individuak tracks. Hit Record. And just do what you do. Trust me. Record your stuff to audio. Great stuff will happen if you don't and altough you can save your sessions, get in a habbit of recording all your seperate tracks and also create a master track. Then you have everything you need if it was a one of a kind moment.
Would love a step by step of this set up. As pretty much a novice I’m having trouble. Thought I had the gist of it but no sound comes out at all
Thanks David, gonna try this! And please do more iOS videos ;)
GENIUS
Beautiful! So simple yet powerful sounds
Great review, thanks 🙏
Whoops for some reason I always called it f*** machine in my head. Good stuff
Veddy veddy nice! Almost all of my AUM projects utilize Fugue M, which I believe to be the greatest sequencer for “on-the-fly” creativity. Through this video I just found out about your sampler app and I’m guessing it’s to be my next addition! Thank you for the video.
Audiobus does the same thing as AUM!
Fantastic, thank you!
Excellent!
Love using iOS for making music! Got the decent sampler a couple of days ago but not had a go at it yet
Fugue Machine is very interesting.
Just downloaded your app! It seems that one of your violin samples is defective. Good luck, and continue your great work.
Quetzal Marchiori darn! which sample is giving you trouble?
David Hilowitz Music g3, d2 mainly. Thank you.
Sorry... g2, d3.
Maaaaan this is cool
I’m going to get this! I made something similar in Bitwig courtesy of Polarity
You know that all the parameters of each playhead can be changed, right? What do you mean you can modulate all the playheads? How? The slider on the right changes the pitch of all the notes. Is that what you mean or can it modulate other parameters? I think AUM is an acronym for audio unit mixer. It has so many powerful features. It allows you to control every exposed parameter of an audio unit using apps like MIDILFOS or some of the apps from the Rosetta Suite, among others. You can also send midi in and out of AUM. Have you tried the app Apematrix? It does most of what AUM does plus it has built in incredible modulation.
That's a really nice concept. Love it. Too bad there's no desktop plugin version.
I know! My only hope is that when the Apple silicon Macs come out and they are able to run iOS apps, we will be able to run the iOS version directly...
@@DavidHilowitzMusic Is it possible now? Thanks!
@@RJ1J It was possible for a while, and now it is not.
You have a sub. Beautiful.
THAT IS SO COOL! Are there any Android apps / VST Plugins that function like this sequencer?
Hello Adam the nearest similar resources I have seen in the VST domain are Scaler 2 and the Captain plugin suite .....chord melody base and percussive all very doable. 🙏
Please do a video showing us how you mix and master your music
This would be great for composing background music for incense shops ✌️ Downloading your sampler now. Boy if we could get Kontakt into iPads or another app that would run our Kontakt libraries I could finally ditch the desktop computer. One can dream I guess.
Excelente... Saludos!...
What I also find useful is to save variation songs on Fugue Machine and then jump between them to create more activity in the minimalism… Wheeee
And that's how you compose a Secret of Mana OST 😜
Wow. I haven’t thought about making music in ios for a while. What ipad specs are you using? (Although I hope the new AS macbooks will be able to run this stuff eventually!)
I'm actually doing most of my composing on my iPhone 11. The performance is terrific, but I'll admit to finding the screen size to be a bit limiting. I'm definitely considering getting one of the new iPads.
Also curious about the new AS macbooks!
David Hilowitz Music well dang, man. I have zero excuse to try this workflow. I’ll be able to make music while my one year old naps on me😁
Forwards and backwards. Forever >
Wow, I wish there was a hardware version of this!
Or vst
Isn't Fugue Machine actually a canon machine though? It's great though! :)
Awesome
Lovely..
Fugue M inspires me to lose myself in audio bliss!
Hi David from Australia :)
Love it
Hi wonder if it’s possible to work fugue machine with gadget 2 ? Or can you also tell me how to looking for the apps which cooperate with fm ? To give different sounds ? Thank you
It is totally possible, yes. Any app with midi can receive the fugue machine signal. Sometimes its a pain to setup or figure out some stuff, but it works lol
In the case of gadget, FM doesn't show Gadget In in the settings, but you set as Fugue Machine Out and Gadget listens
On gadget, click on the gear and set midi from basic to advanced. In each gadget instrument you click on the ALL button besides IFX in the mixer view and choose your channel according to FM's playheads
When is this ready for in-DAW use?
There are some awesome iOS apps, but I’ve never been able to figure out how to compose entire songs. Loops, all day long. Beats, yes. Full compositions? No
The easiest way in AUM is have all your apps as separate channels and create a sub mix down to a stereo file. you can record the separate tracks (channels) at the same time if you need to move them over to cubasis or auria for mixing or you could just load the file recorded from each channel into a file player for mixing (both are a lot of work and why a lot of ppl just use gadget). I record the stems into logic or a hardware recorder on separate tracks or just mix live to stereo file.
Just typing all that make me want to just use logic for ease of use....check out the tascam model 12 for simplifying all the different scenarios.
I totally agree on the hard to make full compositions and mood killer of ios but it sure has come a long from the first ipad.
@@michaelnervOus Thank you, that is a nice comment
@@dangayle of course, no problem! Have you checked out Jakob Haq's youtube? lots of good advice there or sound test room.
I second that! Jakob’s channel is really great.
There is an app that does whatever you do on a laptop. Name any windows or MAC software and I will tell you at least 2 that do the same on an iPad. For example for protools there is Auria Pro. You can record all the instruments of a band with Auria. Actually to be honest, there are no apps that rival the super synths like Serum, but it's close.
Just what I’m looking into right now… Nice, I’m going to check out your decent sampler! Depending on the price… Ha ha… Search Alan LaBudde on RUclips and I have a video called “Chladni 37’”That uses Fugue Machine… But it’s kind of buried in the sound it uses Animoog but not quite defined and it’s a little muddy…
Well I’m off to the App Store to re-search decent sampler as I am impatient… Smile…
unfortunately, still only for ios devices... wish there was a vst version for windows based machines
Fugue Machine looks so dope! .....Can anyone suggest a similar sequencer for MacOS?
I feel Loopy Pro has superseded AUM. Would you agree?
1:30... well ... not sure if i want fugue machine ,and not sure if need AUM for any reason at all since i HOST everything with DRAMBO as of now
forever
Which app would replace the Sequentix Cirklon hardware sequencer?
Are the Midi Notes transferable to other apps or can they be saved as midi files
Sounds hellish. Is this the infamous ease of use we hear about? Bubble burst.....
🔥
I instantiate generators in Reaper and route them all over. I can record the midi if I want, or not. I have a more powerful computer, a keyboard, UAD, tons of plugins, etc. Sugar Bytes drum computer does fugue like playback. I don't get the AUM mania.
There is a world to be unlocked, you just havent found it yet. keep looking buddy
@@anonymous_friend On it!
For mac too?
can we input midi into the Fugue Machine?
Nothing like that for Android?
windows version?
Where do you usually go from here? I often make little parts like this, but get stuck at the “recording this and making a final song” piece of the workflow.
MegaCadr Hi if your were to create a similar project or multitrack project it is possible to route sound streams through a multitude of effects.Further by adding a single audio send to each track it is possible to mix tracks and record a combined stereo track . You can record and export single stems or an entire mix to your computer DAW if you wanted to.
Apps exist which can be inserted into a channel which are capable of multi track recording ( mono or stereo recording ) . When my work flow requires recording/editing complex multi channel midi material in real-time I use a third party IOS sequencer ( Xequence 2) which seamless integrates with AUM and acts as the master clock and handles automation.
AUM will interface with all your favourite hardware, including most external Audio interfaces and is supported by many top end manufactures such as Eventide Wavemachine and Fabilters ( price comparisons recommended. ...its Klondike time ).
