AUBE - Audio Unit Box Explorer

Great for keeping everything organized. Good job. There is nothing like it on iOS

Anybody with a library of AUv3 apps really needs this, a lot. It's like Photos app for AUv3 … but so so so much better! I can't think why an app like this wasn't thought if earlier, it's the app I didn't know I desperately needed but when I first saw it I instantly knew I did. Unutterably helpful. I <3 u dev(s). <3

What a simple and yet great idea. An AUV3 catalogue app to tell you what you own. Suburb, just paid for the update 🙏.

This app let you see in a clear view all of the stuff you got, by category ,so you finally can see in a wink what's on your ipad. Nice if one got many plugs etc like i do Makes it easy to choose

Absolutely incredible! The Aube iOS app is a game-changer. The user interface is sleek and intuitive, making navigation a breeze. From the moment you open the app, you're greeted with a clear design that perfectly complements its functionality. One of the standout features is the installation of a convenient keyboard with auto-completion, making it even easier to search for AUv3 plugins. This addition significantly enhances the user experience, streamlining the workflow. Aube is indispensable for organizing AUv3 plugins, which would otherwise be hidden who knows where and how. Here, they are clearly divided by functionality and by author, making them easy to find and use. Frederic's support is also fantastic. He is quick to respond and very helpful with any queries or issues. Overall, Aube has greatly improved my musical productivity. I highly recommend it to anyone. Five stars!

Very useful to quickly review all the music apps on your device. It stops me overlooking to use apps I haven’t used in a while and might otherwise not use as much as I should.

nice functions that help organize the hundredth of audio units that sleep deep inside the machine…

I will start off by saying that I am a fan of this developers other apps and own several of them. For that reason I purchased this without question. I am very sad to say, however, that I cannot in good conscience give this a good review in the current state. In the current state, this app feels more like a proof of concept, or a tech demo. The concept is sound, exciting even, but I seriously question considering it a tool that one should pay for. I will list a few points that have triggered this reaction from me. * Other than a “favorite” flag, there is very functionality in this app to make it your own in a meaningful, workflow enhancing way. ** No custom meta data within the schema. I would expect things like the ability to enter some of my own notes to the entries. ** No ability for the user to provide care and feeding of the discovered entities in the app. As it stands, you must click a button to send your entire manifest to the developer for review and potential addition in a future update. This is the type of scenario that can take an app from productive to potato in a very short time should bandwidth of the development team become an issue. Many App Store applications do unfortunately hit the single point of failure at some point, but I expect for a paid app that it not be so front and center. It did not know what Vocal Synth was, for example, and that plugin is well seated in the top tier of the category. ** Related to the above. No ability to edit meta data associated to the apps, including classification. As it stands this app knows a lot about the plugins, but it’s not necessarily being put to use. For example - at the most basic level of plugin classification, the data points regarding capability are subject to the application’s logic/interpretation. If you dig deeper, the detail is there regarding the multi-faceted nature of a plugins exposed capabilities, however that information in many cases is not contributing to the high level mapping/display. E.g., a vocoder in some cases may also be a synth, and a sequencer, etc. Classification in these cases can be highly subjective and specific to a particular users workflow and usage. I had to scan through the plugin list multiple times due to odd placement, and it is not placement I would choose to adjust/adopt to even if it may be technically accurate for that singular item. Sans the ability to customize/override this determination, I would expect at least to show said plugins in the categories matching the functionality, even if it means showing the same plugin more than once. * No custom filter criteria or search. Now, you could argue that such an app does not need a search, however if one can have enough plugins to warrant a filter capability or basic search. * Typos in the already very short help documentation. This is not necessarily a huge deal, but it definitely sets the stage for the early release/tech demo vibe that I get from this given how easily avoided it is. I could go on, however, I trust that this makes my reasoning clear regarding my personal assessment. I will continue to watch this app, and I am HONESTLY hopeful that I can update this review should functionality be released that make demonstrable progress in bridging the deltas holding me back from being able to call this an app that one should pay for. The 40% off was nice… but even at that price it’s still not immaterial.
