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.

To be honest, I haven't tracked it. I just knew from the past that Loopy and BeatMaker 3 have been solid. I haven't used Maschine for ages and never with other apps. Btw, it is super easy to check if you have Auditor and AUM. Just make a recording with hits on the beat hard-panned to opposite channels in AUM. Afterwards, open in Auditor and set its timeline to use the tempo you recorded at. If neither channel's hits are precisely on beat (it would be normal for a small offset of up to several ms) you can trim out the initial offset from the file.
At one point, I tested BeatHawk and found it reliable BUT I have had a few sessions where it wasn't as solid.
Groovebox's metronome is consistent with its beats. So, you can't use its metronome to judge the other app.
Really sorry...I failed to understand what you mean concerning loops settings...
I have already made lot of test according to members inputs since the beginning of this post, so , don't take into consideration only the first post as it was sure that at this time my settings were wrong....There's a kind of chronology of the story..
Metronome : I said both groovebox AND BM3...I don't see the purpose to test sync using only one metronome..
Yes I'm using the latest of each apps (I'm not an expert but that is the first thing I check when I have an issue..)..
I only wished to know, how to set Groovebox/BM3/Audiobus correctly to get the most of chances to get sync, and thanks to all, I get the answer really fast..
Finally to know the culprit is not fundamental for me, the goal was, can I make it sync or not using apps I have...
The answer is NO (for this moment..), but I can work around the problem by saving loops made in BM3 to blocswave, and sync blocswave with groovebox..which is enough for me for the moment..
Thanks for all members who have replied and help, I really appreciate this, I get what I needed, sorry, I don't have the level to go deeper..
