I am not having this problem, but you can remove it and reinstall without having to repurchase the app. The only thing is that you will lose any saved work you have done on it.

I'm having this exact same problem browsing Soundcloud.

It happens on my old iPad2, which has loads of my own tracks in.

I just got an iPad4 too for stage use, completely fresh iOS, no other apps installed, the ims20 crashes every time as follows:

Log into Soundcloud

Browse user patches, it auto plays the chosen track

Click another to preview - bosh, crashes every time, without fail

Clearly a repeatable bug....

Any others have this?

Same problem for me

I just got iMS-20 to pair with the QuNeo my awesome wife gave me as an early Christmas present (almost steals the "Best Christmas Evar" title from when I got my first Nintendo). First thing I did (after fiddling with knobs like a clueless monkey) was set up Soundcloud, which connected fine, but now I'm getting the same repeatable crash you're running into.

- Open session menu
- Tap Soundcloud
- Tap any template to preview (works)
- Tap another template and the app crashes

I'm going to mess with some settings, but I've already tried: restarting, closing all other apps, pausing the preview before selecting another template, tapping away from Soundcloud and playing a built in template before selecting another Soundcloud template. Nothing works, the app consistently crashes after tapping a second Soundcloud template.

Edit: removing and reinstalling did not help.

iPad 3, 64GB, iOS 6.0.1

I have discovered that it occurs when the app has only partially loaded a track's preview / audiostream from Soundcloud.

So on longer tracks on a slower connection, the app does not like to switch to previewing another track, or even one stored locally on the device. It just crashes out. Basically, you have to wait for the whole audio track to load before going to another. Somewhat tiresome, and app clearly not tested in the real world.

So, an audio data / streaming bug in the latest version.

Who knows if anyone relevant at Korg or their 3rd party developers read this... :?

Thanks roboldham, seems like I have to let the entire preview play through to the end, which takes longer than making the app crash and then reloading.

Looks like I'm going to have to live without Soundcloud for now. Plenty to keep me busy in the meantime.

Ok this problem is now fixed with the latest update on App Store (19th December)

And yay, BG audio and AudioBus too!
