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.

Check out the video link I posted (above). You’d be surprised at what you can do with iOS 15. I was.
All in all a good update with a minimum of irritations. Apple are definitely getting far more done during the open beta phase which is helping the dot zero release. Files app is still a mess and widgets are ever infringing on the UX but otherwise happy (I've only updated older devices so far and have chosen to stick with 14.8 on the iPad Pro for the moment).
We both talk to the wood instead of to the other person 😅
Once again:
I have no technical knowledge about what those extentions can do or cannot do.
I only know, what YOU wrote!
You wrote that such an extention can save data (for example visited URLs or pasted password) - which is totally understandable and acceptable - BUT in my book, they would not need the possibility to send data to some webpage!
This simply is a giant security hole.
As soon as any such extention can send data out, whereever and however, the whole extention system is unusable in my book!
And should be for anybody.
In this case, you would need to trust some unknown little developer and his intentions, or as I wrote, many many groups would start offering such extentions, just to get your most private data.
To think otherwise, seems naiv.
They don't have to send the data out themselves to be a security hole. It could come in any sort of website you intentionally visit later and they get to autofill for you for example. My point is that the second something sees data, it is possible for it to leak in unpredictable ways.
Don’t give them permission. @NeonSilicon is simply explaining how things work with this system and why certain access is required for extensions to work. He/she isn’t suggesting that you give permission only that extensions wouldn’t work without the access.
The potential for a clever bad actor to do bad things is there—though the sandboxing is pretty good—so it is wise to only give permission if you trust the source.
Yes, that's a valid point.
From the warning Safari gave and from what you posted, I feel no need to run extentions.
Wayyyyy too unsecure, intentionally or not.
Let's close this now 😅
If I was that worried about security I'd be more concerned with iOS itself (just ask Edward Snowden) rather than a browser extension, since I can always choose not to install any extensions. I can't choose not to install iOS on it
Yes, that may explain why I had the impression that we did not really talk to each other - thanks for clarifying!
I still think that Apple could have prevented extentions to send out data or to modify data (that may then be pasted to websites).
EDIT: Many plugins do no seem require such access, like changing the color of the website.
That would make the whole thing more trustworthy.
True.
But here I have not much choice, beside changing the platform.
Mostly follows the features page on the Apple site, so didn’t find anything entirely new, but a couple of small details were useful.
Yes. Exactly. Thank you for saying this much better than I did.
Seems Ob-Xd doesn’t start in standalone (at least on my Air3)
Ahh… you may have seen my reply on another thread with crashing on an Air 3, could this be model-specific?
Any news about the missing-auv3-bug or the audio-engine-not-Running-one?
Has IOS15 cured us from these plagues?
I took the plunge, all good so far with the audio engine bug. Fingers crossed it stays that way 🤞
The only issue I have found so far is that Impaktor crashes every time I try to export a loop from my iPhone.
So far, iOS 15 seems quite nippy … apps opening more quickly, performance a little more crisp, compared with 13.6.1 which is what I updated from.
Is anyone else finding this?
AUM with a bunch of apps performed smoothly so far …
Gosh, this is the 45mins of my life I’ll never get back. I personally stopped curating my home screen as if it was a window display so almost everything is just smoke. I remember this kind of customisation being a thing years ago on Android.
As I said. The video isn’t for everyone.
Agreed, entirely my fault.
“MAJOR BUG!” …is something I haven’t heard at all.
Is iPadOS 15 largely working as well as 14.8?
I have cook lunch for guests tomorrow, so it’s the perfect time to run the upgrade.
I'm not seeing the big bugs I've seen in prior releases. Some annoyances, but no showstoppers.
I only found one, and that is probably due to the app not having any major updates in some time. Other than that everything has run really smoothly.
This might have been mentioned before but these dreaded 3 is only an Ipad thing right?
Yes and even then only visible on apps that support split-view…
I wouldn’t call it ‘dreaded’ as it really does make multi-tasking a LOT smoother experience.
(Just wish more apps supported split-view).
If or when the iPhone gets split-view apps I’m 99.999% sure the 3 dot’s will be there as well 😎
What's with the wasted space on the home screen. Spare real estate down left and right side could fit another row of apps.
Thanks @samu. Yeah I welcome improved splitscreen too. It is just the Drambo midi mapping issue that holds me back from updating my Ipad since i like to use Drambo as an AUv3 host in stand alone mode.
Can you tell more about this? Or point to where it’s discussed/reported please?
Try the BeepStret forum...

I've not had any issues midi mapping the knobs on my nanoKey Studio in Drambo stand-alone.
As far as I know there are no 'known' issues with Drambo and iOS15/iPadOS15?!
(I run the AppStore version on my iPhone 8 and beta on the iPad Air 2 and do tests on both).
More details would help but those serve a better purpose on the Drambo forum.
Cheers!
Which app?
