As an Audiobus user since pretty much day 1 (and also a Loopy app user), I'd just like to shout out to the author of this article with a "Thank You" for revolutionising music creation on Apple's small devices. I still remember the first time I managed to combine some of my favourite sound generator & synth apps and create a mix all on my iPad without having to export things to Garageband/Logic [0], and it was a real game changer on that platform. If anyone knows about audio development on iOS devices, this author is the 'go to' guy!

  Absolute favourite is Animoog - The interface is just so perfect for a touch screen device. Of course Loopy HD for looping. SampleTank is great for quickly creating beats and loops (and so is Figure for creating a random loop to build on). Bebot is just a heck of a lot of fun. I use Amplitube for a virtual guitar amp and it works really well with little lag. I've got a bunch of keyboard synth app, of which my faves are: Arturia iSEM, iMS-20 and Magellan. I know these are mainly old apps which have been around for a while, but I have hardly bought new apps these days because these ones have served me for years. For a sample of Animoog plus SampleTank - https://soundcloud.com/cyberferret/in-a-bad-moog https://soundcloud.com/cyberferret/in-a-bad-moog

  AudioKit Synth One is fantastic, and it's all open-source too.

    Thanks for the link. To close the loop the audio kernel documentation in AudioKit Synth One references the OP. https://github.com/AudioKit/AudioKitSynthOne/blob/master/AudioKitSynthOne/DSP/README.md https://github.com/AudioKit/AudioKitSynthOne/blob/master/Aud... It's interesting in that it's written in Objective-C++ which in xcode are suffixed with .mm - This is for performance reasons I assume. I didn't know about Objective-C++ and here is a link about it. Is it kind of pushed into a dusty closet? Because I only found an archive.org link. https://web.archive.org/web/20101203170217/http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#/web/20101204020949/http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/Articles/ocCPlusPlus.html https://web.archive.org/web/20101203170217/http://developer....
