Yep. I’ve been using Beatmaker 3 and Cubasis for several years now. I also know billboard songs and Grammy nominated songs that have been created only on the iPad or iPhone.
@@HammyHavoc Yep. Here's a few that come to mind: Henny Tha Bizness is a great one. He has a lot of videos showing how he uses it. Steve Lacy produced music for Kendrick Lamar on the iPhone. The Gorillaz made an entire album on the iPad. Madlib made an entire album on the iPad. Mannie Fresh, Just Blaze, Buckwild have all used the iPad (maybe not Cubasis specifically in any of those cases though).
Bought Cubasis just yesterday, was looking for something just like (exactly) like this and I have it today from someone who's channel I look out for every day hoping for a new amazing video. Thanks a lot, sir, you are a great inspiration for me!.
The only thing I would recommend and suggest if you want to use Cubasis is use a stylus/Apple Pencil. It makes navigation and editing less frustrating. Newer iPads do support mouse and trackpads so that’s good too. When I’m on the go, sometimes I’ll take a 25 keyboard or Fishman midi guitar, a usb converter and usb hub to connect storage, dongles, midi transmitter, audio interface (maybe) and headphones. I recorded a client using his midi drums, vocals, fishman midi guitar for guitar and bass as well as keys. Went to my studio and transferred it to Nuendo. Cubasis is very handy, just need less fatty fingers.
You should check out the StaffPad app for iPad. It's something I've been looking into and it seems absolutely amazing (for those of us who like to write music with pen and paper.) It has built-in sample player featuring libraries from Spitfire, Cinesamples, Orchestral Tools and more, all reworked to work on iPad.
You can plug a small midi keyboard in to the iPad using the usb adaptor and then it becomes much easier. I do this with GarageBand when I’m traveling. You can then import the raw idea in to Logic when you get back to your studio DAW.
Yes but the joy of the ipad for me is it is always there and doesnt need anything else. I prefer a laptop but this is a great always with your kind of thing
Why did they make it to only work with certain interfaces? Can’t get out of demo mode unless I have one of their approved interfaces. I was really hoping it would be a daw that I could use.
It may well be very good, but when I'm not working on my main desktop workstation, I still want to be able to use a proper library, open a proper DAW, and use all the same tools I have on the desktop for compatability. Have a Surface Pro 6, fanless, 8GB RAM, 128 SSD, Windows 10, you can get them for £600 in the sales, proper USB support etc, and I can't see anything turning my head away from that for portability and compatability.
My studio is built around my ipad (an ipad mini 5 actually) using cubasis3 and it works great. Looks funny with a small ipad, but runs everything (61key midi controller, akai mpd16 for drums using pro acoustic drum samples, steinberg interface, 1Tb external HD, and a usb mouse. All plugged into a powered USB hub). Using apps like isymphonic for orchestral parts. I’m on a budget, but the end product possibilities are anything but budget sounding. 😃
I scored music for an entire film (93 min) using Cubasis 2 and 3 on an iPad 5th gen. So, ya...it's a thing. Miroslav Philharmonik 2 is a must-have for scoring in Cubasis. It's incredible.
@@ThinkSpaceEducation Due to be released next year...Can't release the name as I'm on a gag order, but I can tell you it's about the resurrection of Jesus.

Completely portable setup. BTW, I LOVE your videos, and am also one of your subscribers. Keep them coming! Yours In Harmony, -Poke.

Slow Poke Productions That’s awesome! Congratulations! I’m hoping to convince Spitfire Audio to bring some of their stuff over to iPad (outside of StaffPad; more like brining LABS and BBC Discover over as AUV3 apps). Embertone was doing some for a while.

As a side note, Steinberg are very keen on updating and incorporating user suggestions and input. Updates are super fast and furious AND useful. You can now group channels which was not available in Cubasis 2; a must have when mixing an entire orchestra!
Good review. Recently got an iPad Pro 2020 myself, and just got Cubasis 3 as a companion app to my PC version (not a Mac and never will), but honestly this thing works quite well. Although there are still some smaller bugs (very randomly tracks refuse to play - just close other apps then) which will be ironed out eventually. And you can import your stuff into your Mac/PC version (needs the Cubasis Importer setup, which is available on the Steinberg homepage), It replaces the mobile instruments with GM MIDI stuff on the PC, but that should be no big deal to change those quickly. As for spitting out ideas, this seems to work great. Now I just need to think if I should invest into the Apple Pencil as well, as for instance moving the locators by fingers can be a small hassle.
how can we import multiple audio files from mediabay to the project in cubasis? I got stems from a client which have 40 stems and i have to drag it individually from the audio foler in mediabay to the project which is frustrating!!
Guy, your entering a whole new world here. Ive been in the IOS music community for many years. I have beta tested many of the new music , and sound design apps that get released. great music apps in AU and inter app audio format can be chained and used together. I have Cubasis and rarely ever use it. there are many other great apps. I pretty much Run and sync and link all apps and midi sequencers etc. in an App called AUM check it out I think you will like it a lot. if you have any questions let me know. it’s so fun
Guy Michelmore also another great resource for IOS music apps is the audiobus forum. forum.audiob.us they have all the latest releases, upcoming apps, and direct contact with developers of these great apps. it’s free and a great place to check out new stuff
Application 'Sweet Spot Morphing Channel Strip VST 3' has caused the following error:
eLicenser(s) contain(s) no valid license for this application. Options: - For troubleshooting information click . - Click to view available licenses. - Connect a valid eLicenser and click . - Click to abort. the mic doesnt work , or the whole device doesnt work just because of this.
I'm certainly not an authority on the subject, but I would personally recommend Ardour. It's open source, and free. It's honestly really powerful. If you check out a guy here on TH-cam called Unfa, he has a lot of videos where he uses Ardour as well as other free software to make electronic music.
This is an awesome recording app but I still don’t understand how Steinberg priced V3 at $50 because I can’t see how it’s that much different from V. 2, which I’m still using. When it goes on sale at 50% off again, I may spring for it but even that seems over-priced if you already bought V.1 or 2. 🤬
Can you save/ load files from external drive? My iPad storage is limited, and will be mixing around 10GB wav files. My next option is laptop, using Reaper. Thanks
I dont understand why they cant just put cubase on the ipad, im so sick of those weird mobile versions of daws like why? We live in 2022 and still not possible to work like on a pc on an ipad
Just got this app yesterday as it seems to be reduced in price, its certainly workable however I did just order a stylus to use for editing the midi notes which is a bit clumsy just using your fingers.
That fact is you need a Bluetooth midi keyboard, perhaps a 49 or 61 key preferably, foldable ones even better if there ever exists in the market. You can then take them anywhere and start jotting ideas. You should then import them onto Cubase and do serious work there.
Just splurged a little stupidly on this just on the spur, I got the $35. (USA) version, which I think was the "premiere" version in the Apple store. Hey, I was lucky to happen on this review 1st, lol. You're one of the cooler reviewers yet; you made me giggle, lol. And you clarified a couple of things, very good, guy! Having just got it, I'll say str8 away that it's the most "DAW-like" app I've seen for iPad so far. Garageband would be great if they didn't impose the weird time restrictions. Idk how long my "song" (*koff koff* noise slab 🙄) is going to be. What am I, Kreskin? And it has DAW-like accoutrements; actual mastering limiters, mixer channels, EQs, compressors...I'm a hard Joe Meek poseur; gotta have my compressors... even tape/tube warmer-uppers. Can't wait to have time to go exploring it in depth. Sorry yakking too much. Music gear is fascinating all round, lol, makes me giddy. Greetings from Texas. 😁
Wait until developers port their iOS/iPadOS apps back to desktop with the new architecture Apple is going to introduce, LOL. Not sure about other apps but you would definitely see Cubasis on desktops!
Hello. Glad to see you so happy with Cubasis 3... Did you (or anyone here) face the problem with crashes? I've bought full version and the same day I had a little 1h session with one of my students... And in this hour Cubasis 3 crashed... 6 times.... Is this normal?
The challenge is now on for Michael to create some really proper music on just the iPad. Oh and not over a week but on a day train trip or day at the beach etc.
I have lot off music production apps for Ipad, mostly instruments, chords cheaters and mangle effects, but cubasis, and other daws are not good for mixing inside Ipads.
There are many powerfull DAWs, Instruments , FXs, Mastering tools available for iPad. In a blind test, nobody could tell an iPad from a computer or a hardware synth . A lot of great youtubers have already made music and demos that leave no doubt about it. The only enormous problem is Apple policy about file transfert. Korg Gadget alone, has made the iPad indispensable for me.
@@leetronix Then I must've spent the last 3 years of my life in limbo, because, yes indeed, I did. If you know what you're doing, it's no different than mastering in Logic Pro X on a laptop, or Pro Tools anywhere.
I think cubasis 3 is broken on ios 14 on the ipad. I can’t record anything when using sampletank as an interapp device,I see level on the mixer but when in recording mode,there is no midi or audio files recorded. Lost to what I have to do to grt it recording,the tracks are armed as well. Prefer just using a daw on my PC,Apple very flaky,PC takes anything you throw at it.
Now, it is not fair to compare the onscreen keyboard of the iPad with your computer, that has several mechanical keyboards attached. To compare, either play the keyboard on the computer screen with your mouse, or attach you mechanical keyboard to the iPad! Also, it is not fair to compare the meager stuff within CuBasis to you desktop sound and effect library. To compare, better use better additional Apps as IAA or AU plugin, for example the piano App Ravenscroft 275 Piano and lots and lots of other fantastic stuff!
I like the look of this app but it’s limited as far as sound design which is a must for real producers. Beat maker 3 is far better. It’s like REASon for iPad
@@charliezhong1712 there are many ways, theres the camera connection kit, which gives a usb a port, bluetooth, you can connect an audio interface which has midi ins & outs, midi over wifi, all ipads and iphones have this capability. this way you can connect multiple synths, speakers, controllers, etc. then theres the ipad pro with usb-c port enabling external monitors, hard drives etc
The first thing I notice in every Cuba’s is demo is their eyes being dragged all over the place by these hidden icons instead of just clicking on the clip of audio or midi . And nothing ever seems “locked” because of the minutia of navigating these objects on the entire circumference of the timeline. It’s the fidgety protocols that kill my work flow deader than dead. It’s too needy. Peace Christo👽
Mr. Cat yes as add-ons, also the “Cinematic” libraries, and the Berlin series. And the articulations is played according to the score notation. Hence no need to have multiple sample tracks. 😁 I really love it!
So glad you done this... I've been using cubasis 2 for around 4 years and done many songs... adding plug ins help. great video guy....you may find one or two bits on my channel if you want to take a look guy?.. 🙏
@@ThinkSpaceEducation Hi Guy, I'm rather a fan of Staffpad. It sounds way better than it has any right to - especially with some of the third party sample libraries. It's kind of spooky how it can sometimes render the music. Personally, I find it so much eaiser to keep track of harmony and what's going on with the music with notation, so I write with more clarity. It's also great for score study - I even use it along side a couple of your courses for the excercies. It's just so portable and convenient I bought a new Ipad Pro for it. Best money I've spent in ages... If you haven't yet tried it you should definitely give it a go. It isn't without the odd issue, but I think you'd like it. You should definitely do a video on it....
Good video but disappointing app that makes punching impossible to do with any efficiency. In short, every time your re-record over a new section (punch in or just doing it manually) the prior recorded layer (event) is kept active. Then on playback you get all re-recorded layers playing back at once, with no way to mute them, or exclude from mix down. This is one of the most bizzare oversights in design of a DAW I have come across. In short if you need to edit recordings by re-recording sections or doing punches, DO NOT get this app.
Check out Doug at the soundest room, for all you need to know about making music on an iPad. I recorded my last accordion and bagpipe cd just on iPad. Also get a camera connection kit to allow to plug an audio interface and midi keyboard in, via a powered usb hub. Check out isymphonic for top orchestral sounds, and also notion for score writing which uses sounds sampled from the London symphony orchestra.
My iPad is old and practically useless and I never dropped it once. I wish I never bought Apple now. Anyway what was I saying. Oh yes. If you were tasked to write a Western how would YOU do it 😀
Yep. I’ve been using Beatmaker 3 and Cubasis for several years now. I also know billboard songs and Grammy nominated songs that have been created only on the iPad or iPhone.

Now, it is not fair to compare the onscreen keyboard of the iPad with your computer, that has several mechanical keyboards attached. To compare, either play the keyboard on the computer screen with your mouse, or attach you mechanical keyboard to the iPad! Also, it is not fair to compare the meager stuff within CuBasis to you desktop sound and effect library. To compare, better use better additional Apps as IAA or AU plugin, for example the piano App Ravenscroft 275 Piano and lots and lots of other fantastic stuff!
Henny Tha business: Hold my beer
i remember the very first incarnation of cubasis, it was truly woeful
Richard James ..so was the first Cubase
I like the look of this app but it’s limited as far as sound design which is a must for real producers. Beat maker 3 is far better. It’s like REASon for iPad
great video!
I am not a musician, i Pad or Cubase owner/user - But I love your energy. PS could you send one of those lollies along the coast. Boy it's close.
Solero smoothy lolly coming up
Thanks for the overview, have heard a lot of people recommending Cubasis 3 now!
Great presentation style! God bless
Great app GUY now i don't need to rely on 60 free days DAW whenever I need to travel xD
Kelts in Turkey?
Actualy, yes. Around 270 BC they invaded what is known today as Galatia, a Turkish province.
who knew.... !
LOL 😂 at 2:07.
i agree guy, good luck playing Rachmaninoff on an iPad screen keyboard
nobody needs that, but you can connect midi keyboard if you really want to
@@JohnSmith-pn2vl wait, you can connect a midi keyboard to an iPad?
@@charliezhong1712 of course
@@JohnSmith-pn2vl but there are no USB ports on an ipad?
@@charliezhong1712 there are many ways, theres the camera connection kit, which gives a usb a port, bluetooth, you can connect an audio interface which has midi ins & outs, midi over wifi, all ipads and iphones have this capability. this way you can connect multiple synths, speakers, controllers, etc. then theres the ipad pro with usb-c port enabling external monitors, hard drives etc
Cubasis is nice for a few things. I use it for rehearsing musicals. Send the new mic back. ;)
👏🏻 Bravo
The first thing I notice in every Cuba’s is demo is their eyes being dragged all over the place by these hidden icons instead of just clicking on the clip of audio or midi . And nothing ever seems “locked” because of the minutia of navigating these objects on the entire circumference of the timeline. It’s the fidgety protocols that kill my work flow deader than dead. It’s too needy. Peace Christo👽
Yes you can, also with Korg Gadget 2, and even write scores with the BBC Symphonic Orchestra and other industry standard libraries with #StaffPad 😁
Yes Im looking at Staffpad now
WAIT Staffpad's got BBC?
Mr. Cat yes as add-ons, also the “Cinematic” libraries, and the Berlin series. And the articulations is played according to the score notation. Hence no need to have multiple sample tracks. 😁 I really love it!
StaffPad on iPad requires Apple Pencil though
@@DennisRudin I wish there was a list of all the available libraries anywhere
Celtic Oud Boomchika!
So much mic noise! Great content as always but this time it was such a relief on the ears when it stopped.
Sorry - truth is - Im on holiday this week! (shhh) so I was building up several videos so I could have some time off so things went through quickly
Guy Michelmore And here we viewers are grumbling about sound problems! Ingrates! Have a great holiday, mate.
So glad you done this... I've been using cubasis 2 for around 4 years and done many songs... adding plug ins help. great video guy....you may find one or two bits on my channel if you want to take a look guy?..
🙏
Audio and mixing is good in cubase
But programming is much easier on fl studio
Second viewer, I feel so special :)
You are special Paul - obviously
The iPad is more expensive than the 16 GB ram gaming laptop I use for working and for music.
True but sometimes having something that portable more so than a laptop makes it doable
@@ThinkSpaceEducation I do agree...but I couldn´t afford it! Thankfully the laptop is still quite portable. I love your videos, by the way.
I would love Cubasis on iPad if you could look at your plugins to adjust things. It's quite useless.
Yes you can. I use other programs and wrote full arrangements on my iPad.
Cool
yes! One for the iPad!
I've never believed English men and now... it's not an exclusion! ))
GUUUUUUY! Move the mic away from yer head, you blowin' inta my ears, dude.
Sorry
@@ThinkSpaceEducation No offence, I just want to hear you clearly. Loving the content, thank you.
I write most of my music on an iPad now - using Staffpad....
Great - How do yo get on with it?
@@ThinkSpaceEducation
Hi Guy,
I'm rather a fan of Staffpad.
It sounds way better than it has any right to - especially with some of the third party sample libraries. It's kind of spooky how it can sometimes render the music.
Personally, I find it so much eaiser to keep track of harmony and what's going on with the music with notation, so I write with more clarity.
It's also great for score study - I even use it along side a couple of your courses for the excercies.
It's just so portable and convenient I bought a new Ipad Pro for it. Best money I've spent in ages...
If you haven't yet tried it you should definitely give it a go. It isn't without the odd issue, but I think you'd like it.
You should definitely do a video on it....
Good video but disappointing app that makes punching impossible to do with any efficiency. In short, every time your re-record over a new section (punch in or just doing it manually) the prior recorded layer (event) is kept active. Then on playback you get all re-recorded layers playing back at once, with no way to mute them, or exclude from mix down. This is one of the most bizzare oversights in design of a DAW I have come across. In short if you need to edit recordings by re-recording sections or doing punches, DO NOT get this app.
the other mic is really loud :)
Here’s an overview of the iPad apps I currently use: th-cam.com/video/ECJw82yIvzQ/w-d-xo.html
Check out Doug at the soundest room, for all you need to know about making music on an iPad. I recorded my last accordion and bagpipe cd just on iPad. Also get a camera connection kit to allow to plug an audio interface and midi keyboard in, via a powered usb hub. Check out isymphonic for top orchestral sounds, and also notion for score writing which uses sounds sampled from the London symphony orchestra.
REAL™ music)))
My iPad is old and practically useless and I never dropped it once. I wish I never bought Apple now. Anyway what was I saying. Oh yes. If you were tasked to write a Western how would YOU do it 😀
Good topic!
@@ThinkSpaceEducation Thanks, Mr M 😊
@The Tired Horizon Not a Western, but a Period piece, you made me think of Peaky Blinders. Without the Animé. 🙂
Cubasis is for the mobile platforms only.
