Au Lab
If you register for a free Developer account at Apple, you can download Au Lab. It's a testbed, but works great as a Host, and allows you to Enable/Disable the iPad Connection.
I loaded up Elastic Drums into StudioMux, which I opened into Au Lab, running it through the Au Sampler. I was surprised when I turned a knob on the Au Sampler and it actually changed the sound coming from Elastic Drums. When I've tried loading most of the Apple Au's, I've not had much luck getting sound from them.
I've also had a persistent issue with losing the network connection to the iPad. Turns out it's because you've got to disconnect the session before you disconnect the device, otherwise you get these connection issues.
Here's the link to download Au Lab and its description:

Nice find, thank you. Yet another of your threads I've bookmarked.
Wow, very interesting.
It's times like these that make me wish that a MAC was in my price range, so that I could start trying to develop apps for iOS.
I like Hosting AU quite well. I think it might be similar to AU Lab. It's also free and lightweight. It does not enable connections from iOS devices, however. I use iOXAudio for that. HTH

Andy - check out Coda you can write Swift and a bunch of others on it - I'm considering it to couple with Transmit, they are from the save dev.
Good to hear, thx for mentioning.
You can definitely load StudioMux instances into Hosting Au as Instruments and/or FX. Or bring in straight Audio via the Input tab - but you might mean something else by connections, my bad if so!
I was under the impression that in order to compile anything for OSX or iOS that i needed a MAC to do that ? Is this not true ?
No, I actually didn't know that. Thanks for your response.
Sure thing - I also discovered that if you Enable LazyKey from the Hosting Au Menu - you can change the MIDI Channel Assignments by Track/Slot using the B/N Keyboard keys for Down/Up Channels. (Can also do pitch bend/modwheel/velocity/octaves in the same way).
Good question. I haven't tried that before. I was thinking more as a learning tool like the Swift Playgrounds stuff. Kinda funny though, need a desktop for mobile development
Yeah, they bang on about how mobile is the future as you can work when and where you want, but all the development tools are securely planted in the desktop world.
In this time of cloud computing you'd think there would be a service you could submit your code to and get an executable back without need for specific hardware
You can code for MAC and iOS in Visual Studio on Windows, but you still need a MAC to compile
