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.

Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

Best Latency?

Hi, I am relatively new to making music on iOS.

For now I am using Loopy on an iPhone 5s, and considering the iPad 3 when it arrives.
So far I am finding 256 samples latency not very musical, but 128 samples generally causes dropouts if I use anything in the fx slot. It seems each slot adds another buffer and thus more latency?
I have an RME Babyface Pro with wired headphones, but running in class compliant mode means it sometimes stutters even more than onboard audio.
Is the latency something that might get fixed in an upcoming Audiobus release, or is it a limitation of iOS, or do interfaces need proprietary drivers to achieve low latency?

For live work, and especially stuff like guitar and percussion latency is a big issue!
