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.

Cloud-Based Loop/Sample Management
It probably doesn’t exist on iOS, yet, but what would people say about an AUv3 sample/loop/soundfont player/manager based on cloud storage?
Something a bit like Loopcloud, Splice Sounds, or Noiiz, but with something like a bs-16i mode.
Started accumulating a lot of samples and loops, on my MacBook Pro. Would really enjoy having a cross-platform way to manage them using a cloud-based solution. Save on storage, make for a seamless workflow between devices, maybe allow for collaboration…
(This is whole separate issue from the cost and licensing for the samples themselves.)
Comments
Sounds like good idea. Content is obviously better suited for subscription than the tools. And implemented cleverly it acually could work. And a good match to IOS devices getting rid af a lot of dead weight. Absolutely.
Nice idea. And samples per active project would be small enough in size to cache locally so you can work offline or on the go.
