AUM is the flexible audio mixer, recorder, and connection hub for your iPad, iPhone and iPod touch.
Connect hardware inputs and outputs, Audio Unit extensions, Inter-App Audio apps, Audiobus, soundfile players, built-in signal processing and filters, in any configuration you want.
Route anything to anywhere with mix-busses, effect sends, audiobus ports, and external multi-channel audio interfaces.
Play hosted synths and instruments using the built-in keyboard or external MIDI controllers, or sequence them with AU MIDI plugins or from other apps using Virtual MIDI.
Record mixes, individual tracks, or both, straight into the storage space of AudioShare (no copying of files needed), with synchronized start and end for perfect loops.
Play back recordings, soundfiles and loops as channel sources in the mixer for backing tracks, further processing or mixing. Soundfiles can be opened from anywhere, including USB drives on iOS 13 and later.
Route and filter MIDI in any way you like using the MIDI matrix. Combine and filter MIDI endpoints using MIDI buses.
Synchronize everything with the transport clock and play in time with other apps or devices using Ableton Link. Connect external music machines and synchronize them with MIDI Clock.
Includes built-in processing nodes for various stereo processing, Mid/Side balance and conversion, EQs and filters, limiting, clipping and saturation. Or use any 3rd party Audio Unit extension or Inter-App Audio effect.
All controls in the mixer can be controlled via MIDI, including parameters of hosted and built-in plugins.

Oneness
This app…. It’s one of those rare jewels that just works seamlessly and does exactly what you need it to really well. An excellently thought out layout and design and I’m still finding new aspects to it I never understood or knew about. It sounds beautiful and handles audio tasks with reckless abandon and beatific exactitude. If you make different music to the masses it’s a mixing dream, and please can more companies like them just focus on design integrity and practicality. Choose an aspect and just make a high quality product.
Midi and Auv3 issues
Midi transport is still terrible. Doesn’t start or stop when hardware midi devices are used, clock sync has to be done using another app so it can use ableton sync, it’s just a mess. Loopy pro have nailed it, this app is now pretty much obsolete.
Still essential kit
AUM remains an essential for IOS music makers. Accomplished musicians and sonic dabblers alike can get so much done within the app. It excels when using AU3 apps recording into either itself or the brilliant Loopy Pro placed in an effects slot. What it really needs is an update so that many more channels are shown. Four is no longer enough. It would also be good to be able to recall previous sessions from a list.
Still No midi clock sync receive?
Hi please consider implementing midi clock receive as Ableton link is not solid at all, plus how to sync with logic? I have no good way to sync it and would like to use my erm multiclock but cannot. Whole thing is a bit obsolete for me if I can’t sync it properly with computer
Just incredible
I’ve been using AUM for a couple of years now and I’ve come to find it indispensable in my workflow. It’s a highly innovative, supremely well thought out, entirely stable piece of software. Not to mention well supported and maintained over time (and that’s not a given when it comes to iOS music apps). Just a great idea executed to perfection - top marks!
Never stop please
Every now and again a developer of quality creates something that changes the landscape of music making on iOS. I use it almost everyday as part of my creation chain. Having begun life recording onto tape it’s absolutely incredible to see and imagine what you can do with an app that brings it all together, and the critical part … in a way that isn’t complicated or unnecessarily technical. All to often tech people engineers like to design things that tickle their intellects and brains but really most musicians just want to focus on making music tbh and having things that are easy to use and do the job well or in this case brilliantly. Solid product and solid customer support. Both things in this maddeningly crazy time in short supply. Never stop doing this please.
Fantastic
New to Aum and very pleased with it. Easy and reliable midi mapping. Love it.
Indispensable
Remarkable. Brilliant. Essential.
Ill Keep This Short… ish…
AUM is excellent. I’ve been using their other app, AudioShare for years (which is also top drawer) and never thought I needed AUM until now. It can be as simple or as complexed as you want and the interface is smooth and responsive. I think of it as a big mixer. It automatically saves each track I record in Audioshare too which is great for me. I bought it as an alternative to Cubasis etc and I’m so glad I did. Just buy it.
Still awaiting midi clock receive
Still awaiting midi clock receive so aum can be clocked from external sequencers and drum machines.
Apart from that this app is excellent and I would recommend to all serious musicians.
