Audiobus for iOS is finally here. Billed as the missing cable between your music apps, I'm delighted to report that it works exactly as advertised. Considering how complex an operation this must have been to pull off, I'm amazed they managed it, nevermind hitting a home run.
One caveat though: it doesn't work with all music apps, not yet, but the list of current apps is pretty impressive. If you're serious about music on your iDevice you probably already have at least a handful of them. Check the website for a full list (and, I would guess, check back for updates, too.)
So what is Audiobus and why are we so excited by it? Well basically it lets you chain together your music apps and play/record the result. You have inputs, outputs and effects, but what you can do with each app will be dependent on that app's features. Audiobus is pretty helpful in letting you know what does what so you don't try and put a mic input through an incompatible synth, for example.
All in all it's a resounding success. Check out the video below for more.
