I cannot find a way to get my audio exports to appear in iTunes. i can send to Cubasis or other app, but none of the options I have found enable a WAV file to be created and dragged from iTunes like it used to. "Copy" does not seem to do anything, but I now have a file named HelpshiftThingsDB.sql, and no SQL app to access it with...

What happend to Save To Disk? This is major for my work...

How do I save audio or midi files for re-import into PC programs now?

As of now, you can save it to Dropbox or Google Drive.
We will look into the Save to disk option.
 
Thanks for the reply. I don't use either of those, but I can save to a variety of other apps, Good Reader is the only one I have found that lets the files stay at root level so I can transfer to hard disk, my other apps immediately encapsulate the file in a folder and won't let me access it. So I save to GoodReader.Clumsy, but it works for now. I'm sure there are dozens,m if not hundreds of apps that can do this, but not on my iPads...

A fix would be appreciated, GR could update at any time...
 
File Manager is also really good and it has an option to "Upload by iTunes".
We will fix this issue soon.

I for one, cannot figure out how to get .irb files saved to Dropbox, only the HTML version. Any ideas?

All versions of iReal Pro (android, iOS, Mac) import (and export) the HTML version. The .irb format was originally used on Mac only and while remaining a File>Open option (for older files) it will not be an export (save) option in the future.
 
I think the ultimate goal would be to be able to create an audio file in IRP and be able to save it to iTunes for immediate use without needing to go thru a second device, be it computer, the Cloud or Dropbox.
 
I have yet to use this feature, but exporting to audio does have an "AAC (M4A)" option. Where does this export to, if not to iTunes? And I'm curious why you can export a file as AAC from the iOS version, but not from OSX.

I don't know about what anyone else has, but I don't have an AAC or M4a option in Audio export from my OSX version, either. In iOS7, I have the Audio options: "Export as WAV", "Export as AAC (M4A)", and "Export as MIDI". But in OSX, iReal Pro lets me export Audio only "via Email", "to Forums", "to Disk", "as WAV", "as MIDI" and "as MusicXML."

Do you mean in iOS, saving to iTunes music folder directly? this is not possible currently (Apple does not allow it).

iOS - if you Save to Disk, it goes into iReal Pro's Documents folder; from iTunes on your computer you can access the audio files.

(aside: for other apps, this can be a way to copy files into that app; for example you could copy PDFs from your computer into a PDF reader app, or video clips into (or out from) a video editing app.)

.wav is higher quality - the computer has more storage, more processor power to process it (in a DAW etc.) and can convert it (import settings: MP3, AAC etc.) in iTunes (or other apps).
The AAC option provides smaller file sizes, so is more suitable if you need to email, or upload (3G).
 
By coincidence, I just finished devoting the few minutes to export an AAC file to see what happened. Yup, worked as you described. And thanks for the other info too. I'm now downloading the iOS update. I'll let you know if my iPod explodes ;)

The next update on Mac will have an AAC (m4a) option for export.

Thank goodness, I am so pleased to hear this. I bought the app on my iPad, but prefer fiddling with this kind of thing on my Mac. So I purchased the app for my Mac as well only to discover that I can not export in AAC (m4a) format as I can on my iPad.

Any ideas when we will be blessed with the update?

Oh and thank you so much for this app. Wonderful!

We are still testing but perhaps a few weeks. You can use iTunes to convert (Preferences>Import settings) audio files or control-click (right-click) a song in iTunes and choose Convert to AAC.
 
When I save my song to a wave file it loses a lot of quality why is that? Also, I can't seem to just save the recored file it to my device, I have email to myself? What's with that?
