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.

    Fun!
    Modstep is a good one for quizzes, there must be another 50+ questions that would challenge even regular users. Too bad there's not a way to set up a "how do you do x" quiz (essay test) as that's the main type of query people have re: apps of this depth...

    Thanks! I can definitely do something similar with screen captures and multiple choice/true false etc... Would be sort of a "Choose Your Own AppVenture" like the "Choose your Own Adventure Series" I used to love as a kid - where there's a stated goal and the questions progress (or dead end) through the workflow to get there. I've actually thought about this as I've gone back through posts here trying to figure things out myself. For now, everything is straight from the Manuals.

    I'm going to have one up on AUM in the next few hours.

    Some preliminary Stats from the Modstep Quiz:
    Roughly 40 have completed the quiz
    0 with 10/10
    2 with 9/10
    3 with 8/10
    Overall Average is roughly 60%
