Music making and audio processing has been growing and changing on iOS. The first app connections were with Audiobus, and then Inter-App Audio became available. The current standard is AUv3. There are many legacy apps and audio hosts, however, that have not updated. Wireless Audio AUv3 gives you an easy way to send audio from one iOS device to another using a low-latency WiFi connection; you can also connect audio unit hosts together -- either on a single device, or between devices using WiFi. There are no cables and boxes to buy (and to lose, or forget to take with you). Install the Transmit AUv3 onto an audio track of one host, the Receive AUv3 on the input slot of the audio track of another host, tap `connect,' and audio will be sent from one place to another with surprisingly low latency. The receiver can adjust buffering to maximize audio quality while minimizing latency. While your best results will be with a fast WiFi router and little cross-traffic on the network, you can still get a good connection even in noisy environments. Most modern DAWs support latency compensation, with the Receiver AUv3 reports -- this allows you to get precise synchronization of your recordings.

ToneBoosters GonioMeter is a one-stop stereo image analysis AUv3 plug-in. Easily identify stereo image imbalance or frequency ranges with negative correlation. Ensure that the content you create is of high quality and mono down-mix compatible, an essential requirement for mobile entertainment! The ToneBoosters GonioMeter stand-alone app captures the microphone input and processes the signals in real time. Since most iOS devices only have mono microphone capabilities, we strongly suggest to use the integrated AUv3 plug-in (app extension) version instead. To use it as a plug-in, use an AUv3-compatible host app such as Steinberg Cubasis, Apple Garageband, Audio Evolution Mobile Studio, Auria, AUM, or others. ToneBoosters GonioMeter will appear in the list of Audio Unit extensions for effect plug-ins. Key features: - Real-time goniometer to inspect stereo image waveforms - Real-time correlation meter and correlation spectrum meter - Real-time stereo balance an stereo balance spectrum meter - Color themes for the user interface - Max screen support in Garageband - Optimised for iPad and compatible with iPhone and iPod Touch What you should know: - Licenses acquired for this platform are not compatible with other platforms. - Audio Unit (AUv3) extensions require an iPad mini 2, iPad 4 or later models.
