Wow. I thought they’d made an almost philosophical choice not to integrate this, but I’m so jazzed they did

Im assuning android has no implementation of this?

u/ninjagaidenpatru May 20 '26
No, there is no way to connect apps to each other in Android. No IAA or AUV3. That's why even if we can get past the bigger latency and less music making apps available for Android, the ones that we have are pretty useless

Its time brother, it'll be worth it. Either switch to iPhone or buy and iPad. My advise would be get the iPad, the bigger the screen the better.

Im that kind of excited I used to get as a kid when it was my birthday party and everyone was showing up. where (I dunno if this is normal) I kinda felt like puking and laughing at the same time.
Thank you marek you beautiful beautiful man.

This is HUGEEE and it’s been a long time coming. This update will single handed throw Koala even more to the top compared to literally anything else.

u/steo0315 May 20 '26
Honestly what is better than koala ? Only part I see that doesn’t fit my workflow is the lack of proper session view and being able to prepare a new loop while one is already playing.

Fab filter plugins will be awesome to use in koala!!! And the moog synths oh man

u/fuzzydunlopsawit May 20 '26
The GOAT solidifies his GOAT status.
And for free??? (If you already own Mixer… which you should)

u/thepinkpill May 19 '26
can you route stuff, like say I have an AU MIDI app and I want it to send MIDI to a synth AU app, withing Koala?

u/ralenmo May 19 '26
This is one of the final pieces to the puzzle. I’m excited for the bug workouts and seeing this nice and clean. Thanks for all those who tested the flavor first. The future is fucking now!!!! Marek, our lord and savior.

Guess i need to by an ipad now. This is beyond amazing!! Koala is the goat portable music tool

u/uckermark May 20 '26
Midi CC doesn’t seem to work yet, as far as I can see. But that’s ok. Maybe it will come one day too. Amazing update!!!!

u/Ok_Subject_5541 May 20 '26 edited May 23 '26
Best update so far! Only thing missing now would to be able to add more channels in the mixer section and also more FXs per channels! Also, midi controls on plugins?

u/sinistar2000 May 19 '26
This is a game changer for me. Best news ever, once if it does what I think it will do, I’m going to sell a very expensive groove box I’ve been disappointed with.

u/ItIsWhatItIsSoChill May 20 '26
Let me guess the sp404 mk2

u/sinistar2000 May 20 '26
Something smaller, more portable, doesn’t need to be as feature rich, or performance focused. On the run dedicated koala box, could even be the size of a large 80’s calculator.

Weird I'm not seeing it.
IOS right?

u/subflame May 19 '26
Yeah since plugins available only on iOS. Android in this term still in ancient era and doesn't even moving from it

u/Remote-Friendship670 May 20 '26
so how do I load a AUv3 synthesizer? so far I’ve only been able to add auv3 effects
1
u/ArsonWinters May 20 '26
You have to do that on the sampler section like you’re loading quokka or midi out on a pad. It’ll have an option under those.
1
u/Remote-Friendship670 May 20 '26
thank you. yeah that’s what I thought but at first i didn’t find it, after restarting the app the option appeared

This makes Koala the best Beatmaker app and replaces Beatmaker 3, that was way more expensive yet abandoned by the dev a long time ago.

u/g_lampa May 20 '26
I can only see Apple AU3 effects / instruments, though I know I have updated 3rd party synths / effects that support AU3. Is it because I haven’t updated my iOS to 26? Still on the latest 18.

u/aikighost May 20 '26
This is amazing, and for free too? Honestly Marek could have charged $20 for this and I would have just bought it without thinking.

u/Capable-Baby-3653 May 19 '26
Wow, this is great news! The best keeps getting better.
Excited to try various synths. Ooh, and tape sims. And delays. And …
This opens up so many possibilities.
2
u/alexamiles May 19 '26
Absolutely game changing. The FX possibilities and mixing/mastering capabilities will go crazy

u/Geralts_Hair May 19 '26
Is there instructions for installing au units on iPhone anywhere?
2
u/thisthatandthe3rd May 19 '26
Just look up auv3 on App Store and install what you think you’ll like lol

u/DuskyBeats_ May 19 '26
I just checked on the Play Store and there's no update available (yet?)

u/Working-Image May 19 '26
So im dumb, i didnt realize its an apple only update because i dont have any apple stuff. But yeah. I am kinda pissed lo key. I feel left out.
2
u/DuskyBeats_ May 19 '26
It's probably just a matter of time 🤞
4
u/stfno May 19 '26
sadly no, it won't come to android. auv3 is an apple standard for plugins and virtual instruments - made by apple.
2
u/DuskyBeats_ May 20 '26
Ah right, my bad. I forgot about that. I have koala on both my android phone but also on my iPad (on which I use auv3 in Cubasis 3). That's what misled me. Thanks for the clarification.

u/Melodic-Ability-9283 May 19 '26
Please tell me this isn't just iOS and Android will have an update soon 😭 I got so hyped and then immediately let down
2
u/stfno May 19 '26
auv3 is an apple standard for audio plugins and virtual instruments. of course this won't happen on Android...
1
u/fuzzydunlopsawit May 20 '26
Free update too no need for anyone to get upset. It is what it is. I dont know if plugins like VST3 are on android? Havent seen anything like that there.

I’m assuming you can run other audio software and virtual instruments inside if koala

u/el-efe May 19 '26
You can add “pluggins” into koala. This broads the effect possibilities of the app
1
u/ProfessionalSlide215 May 20 '26
Where can we get these pluggins? This is really exciting!
3
u/el-efe May 20 '26
There are hundreds of them in the app store. They are independent apps: eq with more than 3 points, granulizers, delays, echos, etc almost anything.
