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.

And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

Convert computer keyboard to MIDI events?
Hey,
I was wondering if there's an app that can map bluetooth connected keyboard keys to MIDI event. For instance notes or on/off (0/127) CC? I'm guessing like for gamepads that such an app won't probably able to work in the background but hey, just asking.
Thank you!

It’s a bit of a fudge though
Not that I use it myself but I’m sure I read somewhere that Drambo allows you to use your bluetooth keyboard as a MIDI controll device. If this is true you could use it in the MFX slot of your host/DAW (or via a seperate MIDI channel strip in AUM). That is of course if you have Drambo.
Thank you both! Ha I've gotta try the drambo way, and the other app seems interesting too!
Ok it works in Drambo stand-alone natively and acts as a piano keyboard. I don't think it works in drambo AUv3 but you can use drambo stand-alone in slide over mode and then send whatever you want to say AUM. Not bad! 👍 I've tested to replace drambo with mirack but there's no keyboard support there.
Sunvox can also do it
App not available in my region but maybe yours - Double Decker.

There’s a good dozen threads on this forum about it. Most suggestions are sun Vox, and sidecar, but a workaround idea in this thread. Search “qwerty keyboard to midi”

Thanks a lot! I didn't thought of using the qwerty keyword, this helps for the research. Thanks again for your help
Definitely. Cheers!
