Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.
Download on the App StoreAudiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

No sequencer, just a MIDI file player, but if you do get a MIDI sequencer, you can set up bs-16i to play a different instrument on 16 different MIDI channels simultaneously.
Does bs-16i load the soundfonts into RAM, or can it stream from disk?
Thanks for splitting those up PaulB
I'm guessing RAM, since large files can be a problem to load.
Ok. Well seing/hearing all these soundfonts people are sharing in various threads on this forum, bs-16i seems like a good purchase (and the only one I believe?). Hopefully RAM will be a lesser of an issue in a year or two.
Thanks, @PaulB!
Gestruments also supports Soundfonts.
Bs16i Is also great for importing midi files.
Do you still have a link for the sonatina soundfount?
Here you go @MusicMan4Christ

Please let me know when you have it so I can free the space again - cheers!
Thanks bro!
Got it.
I found this link that also has it in the event others might wanna get it. Has some superb sounds that can be sampled in BM3.

Great!
Thank you so much!
Ive done some work on some of the SSO sounds and repackaged them in sf2 for playing on bs-16i. They include multi-velocity layered flute, violin, chamber strings etc. Freely downloadable from here

Just go to the Strings, Harp and Orchestra section or the Various Intruments section on my site.
Wow!! What an awesome resource bro, great job!
For some reason it won’t let me download on iPhone even though it shows in my G drive. I checked the size and it shows correctly However, when I check amount of space used it says 0.
I’m not sure why you can’t open it. I just tried it on my iPad Air 2 by downloading the Nice-Strings...SoundFont and once downloaded chose the More option then Open in...bs-16i and it worked.
