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.

Convolver for iOS
Last days i experimented a lot with convolver FX and it is awesome for creating drones and soundcapes.
Is there a good convolver for iOS where i can load any audio (at least wav.) as source?
Comments
Is there one you could recommend (iPhone version included)?
What's great if you load a little sequence into a convolver and get instant rythmic pads and things.
Also really rich sounds (like from Zeeon) are a great source.

Does AudioReverb get you close? It has convolution reverb IRs and is AU but it doesn't look like you can load your own IR wavs which is a shame.

I use the one in Auria.
Oh just re-read and you didn't actually ask for AU.
So there's also Rooms, Fiddlicator, iConvolver all AB and AUM compatible I think (but not AU).
Favourite of them all for me is Altispace though. Have just been loading my own IRs into it and it sounds great. Need to use this app more!
Afaik it's not pure convolution in technical terms and you really have to dig into it's basic setup for a smooth tone, but it's possible - and results can be stunning.
There's a VST counterpart in Morph by Zynaptiq, but I prefer Sparkle (which I consider the most unique IOS effect)
