Transit - Baby Audio 4+

I gave it five stars, I’ve watched many reviews and have only used it for a short time, and I have a list of two things to make it AWESOME for my use in music creation, primarily in GarageBand iPadOS: One, can that main single dial be somehow mapped or the user able to map it, so that the results are ‘automated’? Automation is the thing I look for now, there are great synths galore but GB doesn’t acknowledge changes made using controls other than the pitch wheel and the mod wheel. My simplistic view is, if ‘Transit’ could make GarageBand believe for example that the movement of that one large control was the mod wheel being adjusted, it maybe would record changes as automation?

I don’t know how Audio Units work in something as neutered as GB iOS is the trouble, maybe even if this were done, GB won’t take such an adjustment from an Effect as opposed to an instrument? Over to you Baby Audio, too technical for me. The ONLY way to get this to happen at the moment, with GB anyway on my iPad Pro M1, is to use IAA for example, because it records an audio wave, and obviously results are ‘baked in’ to the resulting waveform - but of course you lose all the benefits of editability that a MIDI track has.

Two, an easy one, I just echo what another user said, could it be possible to drop in more than one instance of a component effect, into the series of FX that can ‘populate’ Transit? I’d use this to do 2 simple delays in series, as that’s something quite rare on Appstore, but obviously the sky’s the limit then, resources allowing. There’s a big iOS multi-FX that does allow this, but tbf I’ve done it once out of 200 songs. On the other hand, my little app giving double-delay in series, has dropped from the Appstore, so Transit would be a compact way to replace it. So, if we count that, there are actually about 15% of my work could use Transit to replace that function alone.

None of the above detract from it being an excellent multi-effects unit, it’s just that the ‘transit’ part is not really available on my mainstay, Apple’s baby DAW. But, this is a limitation all other Audio Units seem to come with on GB too, so this is 5-star anyway. A few shortcomings across the board are what I tolerate, because I find GB is the one DAW (on iOS/iPadOS) where I don’t get sidelined frequently or stumble, with technical complexity. Therefore, nothing above is a gripe, merely feedback. Transit’s a great piece of kit.

Please introduce multiple uses of the effects so we could for instance just have a rack full of reverbs or any of the effects also allow automation of division and bars global and individual randoms💪👂
