Grain stretching/slowdown/paulstretch ambient questions
Are there any audiobus compatible apps that can slow down audio...like a lot, and be hq? Something like Paulstretch? I found this app soundepic, but it's not available anymore on the App Store, the host website is not available, and I haven't been able to find anything that does this. It seems really simple and straightforward, I just want an app that I can slow down audio to extreme lengths, while being high quality, and be able to export the rendered audio, are there any apps that you know of that could do this? Please help, thanks!

Anytune Pro+ has excellent quality of time stretching. It's AB compatible, although if you wanted to export directly I think that's an extra IAP.
Have a read of description to see if it's what you're after.

AnyTune Pro is what you need.

Edit: @SpookyZoo beat me to it
There are other alternatives. I believe Beatmaker 2 can do it, and also Loopy HD will match imported audio to the current projects bpm, so that's an option too.
I'm sure a few other peeps will add some more alternatives here for you.
@thinds must have been a matter of seconds.
sounds like my wife
Thanks for the input, looking at anytune pro it seems quite expensive and over featured for what I need, where's the magic app fairy when you need them to whip you up something nice and tight and to the point?
Quality always costs as they say:-)
Beat Time! Is another good app for what you need.

But I mean, 20 bucks is a hefty price to slow something down...I have samplr and have used the tape mode to slow things down, just not the same effects I'm looking for, used to have a maschine and laptop setup and that thing could stretch down something fierce but was just not conducive to my style workflow...
Here's another I have used. Not such a precision tool maybe and I find it crashes on larger wav's but still OK

@Convis I hear ya. There is a free version. Not sure of the limitations, but worth a playabout maybe? https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/anytune-slow-down-music-bpm/id415365180?mt=8
Also an app called Beattime might work for you https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/beat-time!/id469390635?mt=8
EDIT: I got beaten by Morris this time.
I don't think there's anything as extreme as Paulstretch but AudioStretch ($4.99) will do 250 percent.
Any word on the audio quality with audiostretch?
There is a free version you can try. Been a while since I tried this one.

One more comes to mind but only drops to 1/4 speed, which maybe is not slow enough for your needs.

AB as input so you could record into AudioShare and then re-play that recording back through a second time. I would imagine quality would be degraded somewhat.
Samplewiz, beatmaker, basically any keyboard app where you can import your own samples, then just play the lowest keys since it'll be slowed down. Am I missing something obvious in your question here or is this a solution?
I know this should work as I want the complete opposite. I want time independent pitch shift apps where the speed stays the same.
I can do this very thing on samplr gjcyrus, but the quality of the slowed audio is significantly lower than what I am looking for. I don't think there is really an iOS option right now for a paulstretch type sound, which is a bummer, because I'm pretty sure paulstretch has been ported successfully to Mac OS, and also is open source....if I could code...anyway,thanks for the input humans, I think I'm just going to have to use a computer paulstretch what I want, and the Dropbox it to myself of Import another way.
paulstretch uses a different algorithm to most of the suggestions here. The algorithm sounds pretty terrible for short stretches, but great if you want to take a sound and stretch it for 40 minutes (or whatever).
Somebody did port it, but you can't get sound out of it, making it useless.
Also paulstretch's source code is licensed with the GPL, and as such is pretty much legally incompatible with distribution on the App Store, unless he was involved to change the licensing terms himself.
Check out iDensity, which uses granular synthesis to play back samples at various speeds. It has various parameters that can be tweaked to achieve a Paulstretch-like slowed sound.
