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.

I haven't downloaded it yet but saw some online demos and it looked cool.
Anybody played with it?
UPDATE: i have indeed downloaded it. very cool for me.
Comments
Looks interesting but i see no mention of Midi, Audiobus, Audioshare export or even iTunes filesharing
Very capable of great sounds though. Features can surely be added later.
I'm not going to be fooled by that old chestnut again. No Audiobus, no purchase.
Fair enough. I've no idea about the developer, just found the app on sunday and looks + sounds cool to me.
cheers
Spent some time playing with it. Definitely capable of some great sounds if you're into FM sounding stuff. And it's actually pretty deep in terms of its sequencer. However, it's confusing that the developer would put what clearly looks like a lot of time and thought into the app and not include the most necessary of features. No Audiobus anywhere in sight. Hopefully this will be added very soon.
Bram Bros is all I need.
Me toooooo
Listen to some tunes on SoundCloud and it seems pretty versatile for the price.

Feeling munificent (beautiful day here in Austin...) and decided to buy this blind and put it away til later, 95% as encouragement for a first app launch etc. Should be noted that the link above suggests the price is $3.99, but the price right now on the shop is $2.99....

Responsed to me yesterday on Twitter.
@thindssmeck Yeah some of linking functions are planned to add. Just now there's nothing for them, sorry.
This stuff sounds fantastic. But guys! You're breaking the rule! No AB, no Link, no midi, no audioshare: no service.
Erm. Made the mistake of opening it. Erm. I like it. A lot. Please add the needful pronto...
Dammit, man!
Yes, it could be another Skram. Also, it sounds like Clive Sinclair's alarm clock.
It's pretty badass. But then.....it's like getting kicked in the nuts at your own birthday party. Not that I've experienced any such event. Just imagining.
Yep. Been there, done that.
Aaawwww... 8(
just out of curiosity has the dev said what the reason was for not implementing AB, Link, midi in/out, or audioshare?
Beautiful yes, but you must be sitting in the shade with a fan on you, or chillin' in some cool A/C... cuz it's HOT as fudge out there on my bike. Wunderground says it feels like 111F.
I tweeted him links to this thread. His feed is all in Japanese so I have no idea what is being said there.
Clive Sinclair's alarm clock, now that sounds tempting Still having a Sinclair watch somewehere lying around would maybe be a nice set
I just bought this too- is there a manual or instructions anywhere or do you just fumble around until it makes sense?
I found his Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/utabi.hirokawa/?hc_ref=SEARCH&fref=nf
can anyone confirm that the mixer doesn't have any panning?
Dev didn't probably do any deep research. There's still coming out a lot of sound stuff where devs put effort in, but all lacking the basic Ab, Link, etc. stuff. While back saw also some guy on Twitter asking dev of Nanoloop about AB and Link, the dev even didn't bother to answer...
Swim for an hour in Barton Springs in the morning and the rest of the day feels mild....
There is a panning control in the synth parameters, but I don't believe you can automate it. The mixer does not have any pan controls.
ok thanks.
i like this devs sound aesthetics
