  • Forgive the necroposting, but I thought reviving the “First!” thread might be an appropriate place to leave our “last” words. There are still a couple days to go, and I’m sure there will still be the occasional thread on the Loopy Pro/Audiobus forum, but I just found this post again and I can’t believe that I joined the…
    in First! Comment by SlapHappy 7:52AM
  • Sweet tracks @kitejan !! I’m really enjoying listening. Keep up the good work. Don’t stop just because the forum is going away.
  • Cool! I’ll check those out. Thanks! You could also consider posting the patches to PatchStorage.com, since this forum is self-destructing in the 17th.
  • @aaronofthe Wow! What timing…… You’ve been missing out on the fun for about 6 or 7 years. NS2 should work well for a long time. The important thing is to get iMazing so you can back up NS2 to a computer. …and regularly archive and back up projects. Good luck!
  • Thanks for the heads up! Otherwise the forum may have shut down while I was typing in mid-sentence. It’s been fun. Thanks for the fantastic app Mr Blip! Thanks to everyone who has contributed their positive energy to this forum, in especially to the NS2 guru dendy. You’ve helped many people understand NS2 better. Thanks…
  • Hmm. I agree. The questions still remains: does this then avoid the listing personal contact info? Maybe Matt could drop the other expenses and just let NS2 live on the AppStore with no support from Blip Interactive.
  • Super slick track - I enjoyed listening to it
  • Are you sure? Did you try re-purchasing IAPs one at a time (waiting for full download) before re-purchasing next IAP?
  • Well said! While it is sad to see this come to pass, NS2 will still have a dedicated user base. Ironic that the recent news has sparked renewed interest in the forum. It had been pretty quiet here.
  • OH! That’s good to know
  • I remember those 6 track days. No MIDI and no AUv3, just …Audio Copy? Was that what it was called? Since NS1 is long dead and buried on the AppStore, I doubt it will be possible to reprogram it to have the 16 tracks IAP be remove and the 16 tracks be the factory norm. Apple probably wouldn’t allow an updated version of NS1…
  • @starkfvx I don’t think that is possible, based on how the AppStore works and because the IAPs were developed by another company. The IAPs were set up to avoid (to some degree) the ability for them to be stolen and distributed on the internet - a sad reality of our world. That makes it a bit tricky to save them without NS2…
  • These issues have been discussed a lot in the past. Yeah, everyone has a price, but NS2 can’t make that money back, in the current iOS environment. So a company would have to be willing to lose money on the deal. A lot of money. Best bet in the short term is for all of us to future proof our iDevices with NS2 on it. Maybe…
  • The M2 Macbook came out after NS2 was released, so no guarantees. Please let me know if this sorts out your problem.
  • Also on an AUv3 track press “Manage” then “Refresh”
  • With that selected, NS2 should find all AUv3
  • @number37 Nice one! That should help most users. @Youtopia double check that one of the iPhones isn’t on an iOS greater than iOS 10. Does NS1 work on that iPhone, even without the 16 track upgrade? Use caution, but theoretically, uninstall/reinstall/upgrade should still work…. 🤞
  • NS1’s best shot w/16 tracks might be the PC version. I have NS1 on two iPads and one iPhone. The time to future-proof is now, either with NS1 (if possible) or NS2.
  • I’m starting the conspiracy theory that NS3 has already been fully developed, but Matt is keeping it for himself so that he can make all the best tracks.
  • I liked the funny bits!
  • I hadn’t thought about Slate Kits. I haven’t tried saving IAP kits as User kits to see if samples are transferred to a new iDevice. So maybe it wouldn’t work (?), but to be honest, I don’t use many of the Slate kits anyway, and if there are some that I really needed, I would just make my own samples by recording to…
  • Hmmm. Yes. Failing that, if one does “Save as” with the IAP, one can (and I know this is tedious) get each IAP patch onto an Obsidian track (probably on multiple projects) and Archive that/those project(s) and export them to a PC, external hard drive, other iDevices, etc. When importing the archived project onto a new…
  • So I haven’t tried testing before and after iMazing back ups, but if you do “Save As” on an IAP patch, it will be saved as a User patch. In theory (?) when backing up via iMazing the newly created User version of the IAP would be saved. I can’t test that at the moment, but maybe later…. I still don’t have an extra “blank”…
  • You can save IAP patches as User patches and back everything up with iMazing to extend the life of NS2 on your devices. The read-only folder contains samples that you can’t modify or copy (as I understand it). This shouldn’t affect regular use of NS2.
