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.

I hear you, my first thought was brilliant the iOS House
has finally got the interest of the big boys, especially
Eventide, as every producer knows they are a quality company.
My next thought was that Eventide
has been around for a long time,
there's no rush in buying their stuff.
My next thought was that the current iOS developers need
some serious investment to keep on going.
Eventide could create a scholarship fund or regular competition
to reinvest some of their profits back into the iOS scene.
Eventide earn £31,000,000 per year according to this link
https://www.owler.com/company/eventide
The iOS music house also needs to attract more Artists.
So for my part I can wait a couple of years to purchase Eventide
and I'll be supporting the current and new developers in the interim.
The current developers have made some classic apps.
@BroCoast
I must add what would be best is if we voted for it.
A thought.
@EyeOhEss
Voting for the people who will gain from the financial investment
that Eventide or another major company could provide.
I mentioned it previously.
Scholarship, competitions etc.
Say a smaller developer would like to develop a new effect,
or assist in making a plugin transition from iOS 12 to iOS 13.
Some good developers have been hit by these transitions
and some of them are creating very interesting code.
Eventide with the revenue it attracts could reinvest back into the iOS Sphere.
It works mutually.
Eventide or another company or companies
will always have a client base,
the iOS developers will be able to create more apps
and the iOS artists, tech heads, musicians, nutters etc all benefit.
@EyeOhEss
Cool.
It was merely a thought.
We can discuss ethics another day.
@EyeOhEss
Thanks.
I was just considering the H9, but these will do! Awesome!
@EyeOhEss
Done.
What does this do that kosmonaut doesn't?
I don't see the reason for any of that. If somebody makes a great app that is useful for me I will buy it.
Many developers for audio apps are just doing it for a hobby, like how I fix equipment as a hobby. If I or them want to take that to the next level and make more money that's on us.
If a developer like Bleass made a kickstarter outlining how they'd take app development to the next level, then I'd donate.
That and my eyes are shot from 2 decades of DAWs.
As others have said, either an app is worth buying or it’s not.
It just so happens that a lot of my favourite apps on iOS are by Indies.
This thing is the business. I instantly transformed a percussion track and a sax track with it, from dull to magical in seconds. I also bought Blackhole, which is also great but I’ve not used it a great deal yet. Anyone tried micropitch yet? Worth a go, even if you don’t have guitars or vocals?
Have you use kosmonaut? I am curious what UltraTap brings that kosmonaut doesn't?
Yes, I use Kosmonaut, too, but I would say that ultratap definitely does things that Kosmonaut doesn’t. It’s not easy to put one’s finger on the precise differences - I’ll leave that to someone more qualified than me - but it’s so silky smooth and comes with a ton of superb presets. It just has something of an ‘x-factor’ and can be used on almost anything to give it that little bit of ‘oomph’. Kosmonaut does, too, but in not quite the same way. In my opinion, both apps are different enough to coexist nicely. I’m still finding my way around it but it seems to have presets that can be tinkered with to quickly arrive at some really excellent sounding material. I’ve not yet found quite the same loveliness with Blackhole, but I think that’s because I’ve not tried it out fully as yet. I would heartily recommend both, though, and will probably cave and buy micropitch, too, on the basis of the other two new releases.
I’m one of those for whom interface and presets are right up there with DSP.....from that perspective this one has the highest score for me.

This was processed ONLY through MicroPitch (including those modulated delays in second half)
Excellent !! Pushed me off the fence, already bought the other two, but was unsure what type of results would be achievable with this.
Thanks @dendy
Dick!
It's worth it, I got all three once launched knowing it would be quality fun and usability
(The UIs also adapt so nicely to the iPhone 8 screen).
:-D :-D :-D
I deeply apologize to your credit card.
Nice! Looks like I’ve got to fork out again
It's much more than a delay, it can have as many taps as to sound more like a reverb, with tails not only decaying but also ascending if you like. I recommend listening to a few demos.
I haven't yet purchased any of the three but my first choice would be Ultratap - nothing like it that I remember on iOS.
SIGH... Ok, so how is Ultratap with BM3 automation? Everything hook up / work?
That ribbon controller is such a great interactive plus.
I'm sitting beside a hardware Eventide H8000, and wishing it had a ribbon controller to play with...
Shut your eyes and trust in me....
