apeMatrix, developed by apeSoft, takes music creation to new heights. This app makes it easy to combine all your music creation tools, linking them through both MIDI and audio. It automates many aspects of control, helping you easily inject your favorite effects, whether they are Audio Units (AU) or Inter-App Audio (IAA). With apeMatrix, you can control every built-in parameter along with any Audio Unit Plugins through its powerful Control Manager, which allows for MIDI, Accelerometer, Scrub, and LFO modulation.

With three Matrix grids, each offering 10 slots, apeMatrix is designed for flexibility. This setup gives you two audio bus slots and two MIDI bus slots on each grid, enabling seamless MIDI routing and control. This layout not only allows for the quick interconnection of the three Matrix grids but also supports external MIDI control, giving you total freedom in how you send and receive MIDI signals.

Each audio connection on the grid features its own gain control. By simply tapping on the node, you can drag to adjust the volume easily. Additionally, the built-in mixer lets you manage RAU output and automate controls using the unique features of apeSoft's Control Manager. This includes options for LFO modulation and scrub control that can be applied to all parameters.

apeMatrix also allows you to turn each slot on or off using a control switch located on the Matrix or via MIDI control. You have the ability to control output, pan, mute, solo each slot, and manage the master output of each Matrix through the intuitive mixer. You can route sounds through various effects or apply the same effects to multiple sounds, expanding your creative possibilities.

The app supports high-quality audio processing, delivering up to 32-bit 96kHz audio. You can handle multi-channel audio and utilize features like MIDI Scale Filtering and session saving. Saving custom presets is straightforward thanks to the built-in preset manager and morphing pad, allowing you to return to your creative ideas with ease. The session-saving feature ensures you can pick up right where you left off.

apeMatrix also offers variable sampling rates and a configurable MIDI keyboard, which is perfect for playing different scales. The dynamic audio processor allows for precise audio handling, while the MIDI manager supports virtual MIDI connections and network controls. You can share your custom audio files easily via Dropbox or iTunes, making it convenient to access your music wherever you are.

The app is designed to work seamlessly with Audiobus state saving and offers Ableton Link integration for enhanced synchronization. You can also enjoy AudioCopy compatibility, ensuring your creative workflow remains smooth and efficient. The variable UI color schemes give you the freedom to personalize your workspace while you dive into music production.

Additionally, built-in features like V-Meters and an oscilloscope/spectroscope help you visualize your audio signals, providing helpful feedback as you create. With scrub control being playable via MIDI, you can explore different textures effortlessly. The sender and receiver capabilities support effective communication between up to 16 buses, making apeMatrix a comprehensive tool for music production.

In summary, apeMatrix simplifies the music creation process, combining many essential tools into one easy-to-use app. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced musician, the app's robust features empower you to experiment and express your creativity like never before.
