- How to import tracks on Songtree
If you want to import tracks you have already recorded with other apps into Songtree, here are the quickest ways:
- Audiobus
Audiobus allows you to send audio from one app (an instrument app, mic or synth app for example) and receive it in another.
As you open the Audiobus app, select the Songtree app as Output and select the desired source app as input. Press play on the source app and rec on the Songtree app to start importing audio.
- Audiocopy
You can use third party apps that support Audiocopy or the General Pastebord to copy and paste audio into the Songtree recorder
You can open the source app and select the desired audio file, look up for the "copy" button and then select General Pasteboard or Audiocopy.
You can now switch back to the Songtree app and - once back in the record screen - long press on the timeline (the area where waveforms appear) to paste your audio on the user track, then select the "paste" button and select General Pasteboard or Audiocopy again.
- Open In
From any third party audio apps that support the Open In functionality, you can invoke the Open In command (which may appear after you click a Share button).
In the Open In box select the Songtree app, which will automatically open your audio files on the record screen.
- Airdrop
If you have a Mac, you can quickly send your local file to your iOS device (and vice versa) where Songtree is installed.
From any Finder window on your Mac, simply drag any audio (m4a, mp3, wav or aiff) on the Airdrop folder, selecting the target iOS device.
A list of apps that support the kind of file you are sharing will appear on your device. Select Songtree and you're done.
