The standalone version of this app requires at least iOS 17.2 but Cubasis only needs 13 so the question is will this run as a Cubasis Instrument on iOS less than 17.2? Also is the discount really 25% as that would make the full price $26.65?

Hi @brianlr

Cubasis for iPhone and iPad will have to be present on your iOS/iPadOS device, in order to install the additional Cubasis-version of the plug-in.

The Iconica Sketch for iPhone and iPad app is available at an introductory price of 19.99 euros or 19.99 US dollars until January 7, 2025, after which it is available at its regular price of 26.99 euros or 26.99 US dollars through the App Store.

Best,

Lars, Thanks for clarifying that, I assume even though I can install the in-app version even with that installed I will not be able to install the standalone version without iOS 17.2?

Hi @brianlr

You will have to purchase the separate Cubasis for iPhone/iPad app first and install it.

Once done, you can choose to install the additional Cubasis plug-in version of the app (which is no must).

Best,
Lars

From what you say it sounds to me that it will not work at all as it requires iOS 17.2 and I have 15.7 which means I cannot install the standalone first, and then no chance of installing plugin!

Hi @brianlr

Iconica Sketch for iPhone and iPad requires iOS 17/ iPadOS 17 as a minimum.

Lars

After installing both can the standalone app be removed yet leave the plugin still working, thus saving the extra 1.8Gb storage?

Hi brianlr,
I have deleted the stand alone app with all its data and the Cubasis plugin still works as normal, that will free up some space.

Its the same max setting for every instrument in the iconica library within cubasis.

Hi Lars,
I (and others) have devices that go to IOS 16.7.1 maximum. Could you tell me why Iconica “needs” IOS 17.x? I just want to know if there are technical reasons (cant imagine which one, Iconica is simply an advanced sample-engine which should work an nearly any IOS) or if Apple is restricting developers for new Apps on newest IOS for to sell more devices. If there is ANY was to bring new apps to devices that run at last IOS 15, I think any developer should use this possibility. I´d appreciate a short comment on the background of the IOS 17.x decision…
And - Thanks for the great Cubasis 3.7 update!!!

As @CJ_Monster already stated, Iconica Sketch for iPhone/iPad offers a maximum of 1024 voices, configurable via the instrument’s setup page.

Cubasis cannot enforce a limit on instrument plug-ins, and it can play as many tracks as the device’s CPU can handle.

Hi @whitelight

Thanks for your message.

Could you tell me why Iconica “needs” IOS 17.x?

To enable advanced UI features and ensure a high-performing AUv3 plug-in experience, it became necessary to adopt iOS 17/iPadOS 17 as the minimum supported version.

We could have gone for iOS 18 and used even more modern language features, but we opted for iOS 17.2 in order to include more devices.

Best wishes,
Lars

Hi Lars,
Just a small issue-
It was CJ_Monster who uploaded a screenshot showing of the max number of voices.

And I think it was a great move
The last true stable version of iOS was 17.4 so basing 17.2 was a good move to still use the audio and midi features available

(Please don’t make 3.8. And 3.9 ios 18 either)

A query regarding the version of Iconica Sketch which runs inside of Cubasis 3.7.

I just got Cubasis 3.7 yesterday, and noticed that the standalone Iconica Sketch app requires a higher iOS version than my iPad can update to.

As my iPad can run Cubasis 3.7, is there any way of being able to get the “Cubasis internal” Iconica Sketch version without the standalone version?

Sorry if I’m missing the point, but I’ve read through the @brianlr and @LSlowak posts above and still remain unsure what the definitive answer is.

Thank you.
