AudioBus on Android?
Given the various debates on here at the moment related to iOS 8 and the recent release of the latest Android update, a quick question for the AudioBus team...
Would you port AudioBus to Android? Is it even viable? Could iOS apps be readily ported or would it need a major development effort?
I've always wondered about Caustic (as an example) and how much of the development is possible in parallel between the iOS and Android versions.
Comments
I don't know that Android would even need it. The OS is more open on Androids, and plug-ins (like the VST plugins) are allowed in the software. Android would likely be able to be treated more like a Windows/Mac desktop device.
Yeah, good point. I guess AudioBus cracked the app linking problem that existed under iOS.
That said, AB provides an environment, taking multiple streams and merging them. With a common SDK to take care of that aspect I could see a role on android. Without a central app, how would devs of different apps coordinate access to a shared destination.
I get the desktop analogy, but that platform relies on a DAW to handle the integration. But iOS and AB have shown that creative options exist that don't rely on the traditional DAW workflow, but on combining innovative functions more directly.
The other thing is there are no apps worth chaining together. Caustic and Oscilab are the only 2 notable apps I'm aware of.
Samsung already announced Jack for Android.

I'm just speculating about longer term. All the iOS 8 discontent combined with the hints at improved audio on the latest Android release got me thinking where we could be in a few years.
I guess my real question is more general than just AudioBus... If Andriod become viable for audio, how long would it take for the iOS apps to get ported over?

Not really but here the CrudeBytes crew say they develop all platforms

...And if you didn't see this on Discchord (or was it Synthtoia?) our friend made an early musical app appearance on 'the other side'!

Android, meh.
Linux and Google, how is this not going to bite your arse?
@xen see.

It's listed on there.
Cheers for all the links... I'll make a brew and read up.
For the record, I still think both iOS and the iPad platform will maintain a significant edge for some time. However, I've got a growing interest in doing some developing. I'd be starting from a pretty low experience level... I understand coding and systems engineering, but am way out of practice. So I'd be staring simple and building up complexity slowly over time. If Andriod looks like it could become viable that could be a nice long term project. If not, I'd put my efforts into getting my head around the inner workings of iOS. We'll see, there is the slight problem of the day job getting in the way.
