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.

Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

iPhone 16 Pro - new 'studio' microphones

Does anyone know if iOS music apps like Loopy Pro or Cubasis will be able to recognize the separate mics as separate inputs on the iPhone 16 Pro?

From this article:
"While both iPhone 16 models (as well as the iPhone 15 Pro range) will support Apple Intelligence, the 16 Pro and Pro Max have a few exclusive perks. That includes enhanced Voice Memos, which uses the Pro’s advanced mics to let you layer voice notes on top of one another — perfect for musicians who want to add vocals on top of a guitar idea or tack on some harmonies. As someone who spends most of their free time making music (and has an ungodly amount of song ideas sitting in their Voice Memos), this is the one announcement during Apple’s keynote that legitimately made me jaw drop."

    Loopy Pro has microphone selection already, so I see no reason why apps wouldn't be able to do that with the new mics as well, provided they implement that ability.

    Oh - I don't have an iPhone, yet. Does Loopy Pro currently allow you to choose top or bottom mics (or both) on the iPhone?

    On my iPhone 12 I can select between Bottom, Front, and Back. I assume that's all of the mics?
    You can only select one at a time though. I added a second mic input, but changing one changes them both, even with "Multi-Route Audio" enabled.

    Check out Stereo Microphone by Ryouta Kira though. I think it may have some other tricks up its sleeve.

    Valuable information! Thank you.
    That makes me much more interested in the 16 Pro models, now. I have a Zoom H6 for great field recording, but I end up using what's in my pocket more often than not (which is currently a Samsung Note 8). The new iPhone Pro mics seem like an improvement.

    Do you know if this app is AUv3 or even IAA?

    It's standalone. If it were a plugin it would be limited to the microphones the host can use, so it wouldn't be able to do it's magic.
