Drumagog in Auria

[Rim]

You're right, iTunes file sharing doesn't support folders, but we got around that limitation by allowing zip files. So, to add a Gog Files folder into Auria,

1. Create a Gog Files folder on your computer. Make sure the capitalization is correct (capital G and F).
2. Inside this folder, add other sub-folders with gog files in them. Drumagog will only show gog files that are within folders inside Gog Files.
3. zip this Gog Files folder.
4. Copy the zip into Auria using iTunes.

When Auria sees this zip file, it will automatically unzip it. Then, open Drumagog (remove it if you already had it loaded). You'll see the new gog files.

Thanks a lot again !

So just to be certain before I purchase Drumagog 5, I can create my individual drum parts in Garage Band, audio copy/paste them into Auria and say for the snare, choose Drumagog from the track effects list the snare is on and choose a snare I want to replace it with? Or is there something else regarding accessing a Gog folder? I lost the thread of the conversation once I read that part.

Thanks in advance.

Will.

sounds about right Will, it works as you'd expect.

at the risk of it being the dumbest question ever - is there a FAQ/instructions on how to use Drumagog in Auria? or at least - how/where to find it to start with? Auria manual does indeed discuss how to use it (Drumagog, that is) - but not how to launch it!

(I tried this forum's search, but it got me nowhere - the words "dromagog" "auria" and "in" appear to be too common for search to search for them !).

Drumagog is a plug-in in Auria, so to launch it, you press the Fx button on the track you want to put Drumagog on, then, in the Channelstrip that opens, select Drumagog in one of the little pull-down boxes to the right (these are insert selectors, allowing you to add up to four plugins as inserts per track).

After you close Drumagog, you can re-open the window by pressing the "e" next to the insert selector. This opens Drumagog's editor again.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Rim, it sure helps, I now know where to look for it, however - it's not there (I only have 4 Reverbs, 4 PSP's and 2 ReTunes), so my next question is this: each time I update Auria, do I need to restore my purchase(s) (which, in case of Drumagog, is some 500MB or so, if I remember correctly) ?

Oh, and also: when I back up, and then restore, my iPad, will all the plug-ins be there too, or they'll need to be restored from inside the app?

cheers

Usually, there's no need to restore your purchases when upgrading, but 1.05 did require this, as I made some changes to the code that handle IAP. So if you press that button you should get Drumagog back.
