NovoNotes has announced the release of a groundbreaking plugin that enables the use of audio plugins operating on iPads/iPhones from a Mac DAW.

SideRack allows the integration of the AUv3 plugin ecosystem and touch interface experience into a professional music production environment.

“SideRack” is a plugin designed for macOS, enabling the use of audio plugins operating on mobile devices such as iPads and iPhones from a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) on your Mac. This plugin facilitates the easy integration of the innovative AUv3 plugins’ ecosystem and touch interface experiences of mobile devices into professional music production environments.

SideRack is comprised of two main components: the ‘SideRack Plugin,’ designed for use within a DAW on macOS, and the ‘SideRack Server,’ which functions on a mobile device. Audio and MIDI signals fed into the SideRack Plugin from the DAW are swiftly transferred and processed by the SideRack Server through a USB cable connection.

The SideRack plugin for macOS (VST3/AU) is on sale for the launch price of $78 USD for a limited time (regular $98 USD).
