Filtatron now has Audiobus and MIDI control

[dswo]

I knew Amos would come through and he has. Thank you, Moog, for supporting this app and his work.

What's New in Version 1.2.0

• Audiobus and JACK support, for total integration with your other audio apps! Filtatron can act as a source, a destination, or a filter for audio from other compatible apps. (for audio IN to Filtatron, be sure to turn up the LINE level knob to hear it)

• MIDI mapping for almost every parameter! Use hardware controllers or external sequencers to control Filtatron remotely. Check the MIDI menu on the 'About' page.

• Share files from the Samples directly to SoundCloud

• Now supports both Landscape and Portrait orientation on iPad

• New full-screen artwork for iPhone 5

We need a party emoticon for this!

Haven't tried out the new features, like MIDI and Audiobus or JACK, but Landscape mode is not working

Could it be because I've still not installed iOS 7?

Thanks much.
Increases the value of the app.

I am equally happy to hear of this news! Audiobus works like it should with Filtatron, however the MIDI Configuration is a bit confusing. The update on the app store update says this:

MIDI mapping for almost every parameter! Use hardware controllers or external sequencers to control Filtatron remotely. Check the MIDI menu on the 'About' page.

I'm guessing that this means you need to have some sort of MIDI attachment like iRig MIDI or MIDI Mobilizer? I wonder why a simple Network Connection isn't available, seeing as it is for Animoog for iPhone? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWpMAGhjK5U

Don't get me wrong, Audiobus support is AMAZING. But it would be rad if MIDI worked via a Network Connection. I'm not able to populate the field for Network Connection, so I guess it's not possible? *Sigh. So close... This is a screenshot of what it shows:

The app doesn't appear to "auto detect" landscape mode at startup, or at least that appears to be the case on my iPad 2 running iOS 7. Try rotating your iPad 90 degrees, then back to landscape, and Filtatron should follow the orientation.

I got landscape orientation to work on iPad, you have to rotate to portrait first and when you rotate back to landscape it should switch for you.

I figured out how to control Filtatron via WiFi (Mac only, sorry)

Midi Support via my Synthstation 25 doesn't seem to work at all. 3rd Gen Ipod Touch. IOS 5.1. Anyone else have controller issues?

Synthstation 25 does not use the CoreMIDI standard (which is all that most apps support). The MidiBridge app can sometimes help with this (it generates a virtual CoreMIDI device, and links the Synthstation 25 to that), but there's no guarantee for a particular app.

Interesting, I love when things don't follow standard API's. Though this is the 1st App I've ever had issue with and I have several that do support it. I'll give MidiBridge a go. Thank you =D

Well, Landscape mode does work, but after opening Filtatron the iPad must be held in Portrait mode and then swung to Landscape.

Exciting times again with Filtatron ... thanks again Amos and the Moog team!

A couple of things I would like to see added to the midi implementation (correct me if these are already available):
1. Lock tempo to external midi clock
2. Tap tempo via midi
3. Sampler record via midi

Been having loads of fun running guitar through JamUp Pro then into Filtatron via AudioBus ... Awesome!

Thank you for adding MIDI control to Filtatron.

I have written a class in the ChucK programming language to interact with Filtatron over network MIDI

and example

I noticed that the CC mappings in the MIDI Configuration interface have an off-by-one problem though. That is, if say the mappings are defined as

VCO Freq 0
VCO Waveform 1

and a MIDI control change message on CC 1 is sent the VCO Freq control will change, not the VCO Waveform control.
