About Released *26 edition

Clarification About Legacy Apps and SDK Changes

Users can smoothly migrate to new apps! Settings / Saved Sessions can be loaded.

The new apps can load the old settings. Saved sessions in AU host apps (e.g. AUM) works with the new apps except if users use the “*deprecated” audio units. Files in iTunes File Sharing need to migrate manually.

In preparation for next year’s OS update, I have decided to designate four of my apps as “Legacy” and release them as renewed apps under new titles.
The Legacy apps are scheduled to be discontinued in the future.
Although the new apps have “26” at the end of their names, I plan to keep supporting them under the same names in the coming years.

• KQ MiniSynth
• KQ Dixie
• KQ Unotone
• KQ Sampei

Apple has stated that apps not adopting “Scene feature” will become unusable in next year’s update, leading to this situation.
If true, many older apps are expected to become unusable in iOS/iPadOS 27.
It appears that the Scene becomes mandatory when applying the latest SDK.
I apologize for making unnecessary app changes based on a mistaken understanding.

The lost functions in the *26 are:

• Inter-App Audio (Audiobus)
• Deprecated Audio Units

You can safely migrate to the *26 if you don’t use those functions. The app preferences and Audio Unit ID are common.
Some issues might occur if you use the both versions simultaneously.

For those who have purchased the older versions, I have prepared update bundles.
These bundles offer a discount.
